PART I
 
ITEM 1.   BUSINESS.
 
Overview
 
Capital Senior Living Corporation, a Delaware corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), is one of the largest operators of senior living communities in the United States in terms of resident capacity. The Company and its predecessors have provided senior living services since 1990. As of December 31, 2009, the Company operated 66 senior living communities in 23 states with an aggregate capacity of approximately 10,200 residents, including 40 senior living communities which the Company either owned or in which the Company had an ownership interest, 25 senior living communities that the Company leased and one senior living community it managed for a third party. As of December 31, 2009, the Company also operated one home care agency. During 2009, approximately 94% of total revenues for the senior living communities operated by the Company were derived from private pay sources.
 
The Company’s operating strategy is to provide quality senior living communities and services to its residents, while achieving and sustaining a strong, competitive position within its chosen markets, as well as to continue to enhance the performance of its operations. The Company provides senior living services to the elderly, including independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing and home care services. Many of the Company’s communities offer a continuum of care to meet its residents’ needs as they change over time. This continuum of care, which integrates independent living and assisted living and is bridged by home care through independent home care agencies or the Company’s home care agency, sustains residents’ autonomy and independence based on their physical and mental abilities.
 
Website
 
The Company’s internet website www.capitalsenior.com contains an Investor Relations section, which provides links to the Company’s annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, proxy statements, Section 16 filings and amendments to those reports and filings, which reports and filings are available through the Company’s internet website free of charge as soon as reasonably practicable after such material is electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
 
Industry Background
 
The senior living industry encompasses a broad and diverse range of living accommodations and supportive services that are provided primarily to persons 75 years of age or older.
 
For the elderly who require limited services, independent living residences supplemented at times by home health care, offers a viable option. Most independent living communities typically offer community living packaged with basic services consisting of meals, housekeeping, laundry, 24-hour staffing, transportation, social and recreational activities and health care monitoring. Independent living residents typically are not reliant on assistance with activities of daily living (“ADL’s”) although some residents may contract out for those services.
 
As a senior’s need for assistance increases, care in an assisted living residence is often preferable and more cost-effective than home-based care or nursing home care. Typically, assisted living represents a combination of housing and support services designed to aid elderly residents with ADL’s such as ambulation, bathing, dressing, eating, grooming, personal hygiene and monitoring or assistance with medications. Certain assisted living residences may also provide assistance to residents with low acuity medical needs, or may offer higher levels of personal assistance for incontinent residents or residents with Alzheimer’s disease or other cognitive or physical frailties. Generally, assisted living residents require higher levels of care than residents of independent living residences and retirement living centers, but require lower levels of care than patients in skilled nursing facilities. For seniors who need the constant attention of a skilled nurse or medical practitioner, a skilled nursing facility may be required.
 
According to the American Seniors Housing Association Seniors Housing Construction Trends Report for 2009, 14% of the senior housing supply in the 100 largest metro areas of the United States are assisted living units,

Table of Contents

19% are independent living units, 44% are nursing care beds, 3% are memory care units and 20% relate to age restricted senior apartments. Additionally, the largest 100 metro areas contain approximately 66% of the total United States population, 62% of the age 65+ population, and 61% of the age 75+ population, according to the most recent population projections from the United States Census Bureau.
 
The senior living industry is highly fragmented and characterized by numerous small operators. Moreover, the scope of senior living services varies substantially from one operator to another. Many smaller senior living providers do not operate purpose-built residences, do not have extensive professional training for staff and provide only limited assistance with ADLs. The Company believes that many senior living operators do not provide the required comprehensive range of senior living services designed to permit residents to “age in place” within the community as residents develop further physical or cognitive frailties.
 
The Company believes that a number of demographic, regulatory and other trends will contribute to the continued growth in the senior living market, including the following:
 
Consumer Preference
 
The Company believes that senior living communities are increasingly becoming the setting preferred by prospective residents and their families for the care of the elderly. Senior living offers residents greater independence and allows them to “age in place” in a residential setting, which the Company believes results in a higher quality of life than that experienced in more institutional or clinical settings.
 
The likelihood of living alone increases with age. Most of this increase is due to an aging population in which women outlive men. Societal changes, such as high divorce rates and the growing numbers of persons choosing not to marry, have further increased the number of Americans living alone. This growth in the number of elderly living alone has resulted in an increased demand for services that historically have been provided by a spouse, other family members or live-in caregivers.
 
Demographics
 
The primary market for the Company’s senior living services is comprised of persons aged 75 and older. This age group is one of the fastest growing segments of the United States population and is expected to grow from 18.7 million in 2008 to approximately 32.6 million in 2030. The population of seniors aged 85 and over is expected to grow from approximately 5.7 million in 2008 to approximately 8.9 million by 2030 representing an increase of approximately 56%. As the number of persons aged 75 and over continues to grow, the Company believes that there will be corresponding increases in the number of persons who need assistance with ADLs.
 
Senior Affluence
 
The average net worth of senior citizens is typically higher than non-senior citizens, partially as a result of accumulated equity through home ownership. The Company believes that a substantial portion of the senior population has historically accumulated significant resources available for their retirement and long-term care needs. The Company’s target population is comprised of moderate to upper income seniors who have, either directly or indirectly through familial support, the financial resources to pay for senior living communities, including an assisted living alternative to traditional long-term care. However, recent volatility and downturns in the housing, financial, and credit markets could negatively affect the ability of senior citizens to relocate into our communities, or the time at which they choose to do so, which could have a significant impact on our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations.
 
Reduced Reliance on Family Care
 
Historically, the family has been the primary provider of care for seniors. The Company believes that the increase in the percentage of women in the work force, the reduction of average family size, and overall increased mobility in society is reducing the role of the family as the traditional caregiver for aging parents. The Company believes that these factors will make it necessary for many seniors to look outside the family for assistance as they age.

Restricted Supply of Nursing Beds
 
Several states in the United States have adopted Certificate of Need (“CON”) or similar statutes generally requiring that, prior to the addition of new skilled nursing beds, the addition of new services, or the making of certain capital expenditures, a state agency must determine that a need exists for the new beds or the proposed activities. The Company believes that this CON process tends to restrict the supply and availability of licensed nursing facility beds. High construction costs, limitations on government reimbursement for the full costs of construction, and start-up expenses also act to constrain growth in the supply of such facilities. At the same time, nursing facility operators are continuing to focus on improving occupancy and expanding services to subacute patients generally of a younger age and requiring significantly higher levels of nursing care. As a result, the Company believes that there has been a decrease in the number of skilled nursing beds available to patients with lower acuity levels and that this trend should increase the demand for the Company’s senior living communities, including, particularly, the Company’s assisted living communities.
 
Cost-Containment Pressures
 
In response to rapidly rising health care costs, governmental and private pay sources have adopted cost containment measures that have reduced admissions and encouraged reduced lengths of stays in hospitals and other acute care settings. The federal government had previously acted to curtail increases in health care costs under Medicare by limiting acute care hospital reimbursement for specific services to pre-established fixed amounts. Private insurers have begun to limit reimbursement for medical services in general to predetermined charges, and managed care organizations (such as health maintenance organizations) are attempting to limit hospitalization costs by negotiating for discounted rates for hospital and acute care services and by monitoring and reducing hospital use. In response, hospitals are discharging patients earlier and referring elderly patients, who may be too sick or frail to manage their lives without assistance, to nursing homes and assisted living residences where the cost of providing care is typically lower than hospital care. In addition, third-party payors are increasingly becoming involved in determining the appropriate health care settings for their insureds or clients, based primarily on cost and quality of care. Based on industry data, the typical day-rate in an assisted living facility is two-thirds of the cost for comparable care in a nursing home.
 
Operating Strategy
 
The Company’s operating strategy is to provide quality senior living services to its residents while achieving and sustaining a strong, competitive position within its chosen markets, as well as continuing to enhance the performance of its operations. The Company is implementing its operating strategy principally through the following methods:
 
Provide a Broad Range of Quality Personalized Care
 
Central to the Company’s operating strategy is its focus on providing quality care and services that are personalized and tailored to meet the individual needs of each community resident. The Company’s residences and services are designed to provide a broad range of care that permits residents to “age in place” as their needs change and as they develop further physical or cognitive frailties. By creating an environment that maximizes resident autonomy and provides individualized service programs, the Company seeks to attract seniors at an earlier stage, before they need the higher level of care provided in a skilled nursing facility. The Company also maintains a comprehensive quality assurance program designed to ensure the satisfaction of its residents and their family members. The Company conducts annual resident satisfaction surveys that allow residents at each community to express whether they are “very satisfied,” “satisfied” or “dissatisfied” with all major areas of a community, including, housekeeping, maintenance, activities and transportation, food service, security and management. In both 2009 and 2008, the Company achieved 95% overall approval ratings from the residents’ satisfaction surveys.
 
Offer Services Across a Range of Pricing Options
 
The Company’s range of products and services is continually expanding to meet the evolving needs of its residents. The Company has developed a menu of products and service programs that may be further customized to

serve both the moderate and upper income markets of a particular targeted geographic area. By offering a range of pricing options that are customized for each target market, the Company believes that it can develop synergies, economies of scale and operating efficiencies in its efforts to serve a larger percentage of the elderly population within a particular geographic market.
 
Improve Occupancy Rates
 
The Company continually seeks to maintain and improve occupancy rates by: (i) retaining residents as they “age in place” by extending optional care and service programs; (ii) attracting new residents through the on-site marketing programs focused on residents and family members; (iii) selecting communities in underserved markets; (iv) aggressively seeking referrals from professional community outreach sources, including area religious organizations, senior social service programs, civic and business networks, as well as the medical community; and (v) continually refurbishing and renovating its communities.
 
Improve Operating Efficiencies
 
The Company seeks to improve operating efficiencies at its communities by actively monitoring and managing operating costs. By having an established national portfolio of communities with regional management in place, the Company believes it has established a platform to achieve operating efficiencies through economies of scale in the purchase of bulk items, such as food and supplies and in the spreading of fixed costs, such as corporate overhead, over a larger revenue base, and to provide more effective management supervision and financial controls. The Company’s growth strategy includes regional clustering of new communities to achieve further efficiencies.
 
Emphasize Employee Training and Retention
 
The Company devotes special attention to the hiring, screening, training, supervising and retention of its employees and caregivers to ensure that quality standards are achieved. In addition to normal on-site training, the Company conducts national management meetings and encourages sharing of expertise among managers. The Company’s commitment to the total quality management concept is emphasized throughout its training program. This commitment to the total quality management concept means identification of the “best practices” in the senior living market and communication of those “best practices” to the Company’s executive directors and their staff. The identification of best practices is realized by a number of means, including: emphasis on regional and executive directors keeping up with professional trade journals; interaction with other professionals and consultants in the senior living industry through seminars, conferences and consultations; visits to other properties; leadership and participation at national and local trade organization events; and information derived from marketing studies and resident satisfaction surveys. This information is continually processed by regional managers and the executive directors and communicated to the Company’s employees as part of their training. The Company hires an executive director for each of its communities and provides them with autonomy, responsibility and accountability. The Company’s staffing of each community with an executive director allows it to hire more professional employees at these positions, while the Company’s developed career path helps it to retain the professionals it hires. The Company believes its commitment to and emphasis on employee training and retention differentiates the Company from many of its competitors.
 
Senior Living Services
 
The Company provides senior living services to the elderly, including independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing and home care services. By offering a variety of services and encouraging the active participation of the resident and the resident’s family and medical consultants, the Company is able to customize its service plan to meet the specific needs and desires of each resident. As a result, the Company believes that it is able to maximize customer satisfaction and avoid the high cost of delivering unnecessary services to residents.
 
The Company’s operating philosophy is to provide quality living communities and services to senior citizens and deliver a continuum of care for its residents as their needs change over time. This continuum of care, which integrates independent living and assisted living and is bridged by home care, sustains residents’ autonomy and independence based on their physical and mental abilities. As residents age, in many of the Company’s communities, they are able to obtain the additional needed services within the same community, avoiding the disruptive and often traumatic move to a different facility.

Independent Living Services
 
The Company provides independent living services to seniors who typically do not yet need assistance or support with ADLs, but who prefer the physical and psychological comfort of a residential community that offers health care and other services. As of December 31, 2009, the Company had ownership interests in 30 communities, leased 14 communities and managed one community that provide independent living services, which include communities that combine assisted living services, with an aggregate capacity for approximately 6,800 residents.
 
Independent living services provided by the Company include daily meals, transportation, social and recreational activities, laundry, housekeeping and 24-hour staffing. The Company also fosters the wellness of its residents by offering access to health screenings (such as blood pressure checks), periodic special services (such as influenza inoculations), dietary and similar programs, as well as ongoing exercise and fitness classes. Classes are given by health care professionals to keep residents informed about health and disease management. Subject to applicable government regulation, personal care and medical services are available to independent living residents through either the community staff or through the Company’s agency or other independent home care agencies. The Company’s independent living residents pay a fee ranging from $1,095 to $5,740 per month, in general, depending on the specific community, program of services, size of the unit and amenities offered. The Company’s contracts with its independent living residents are generally for a term of one year and are typically terminable by either party, under certain circumstances, upon 30 days notice.
 
Assisted Living Services
 
The Company offers a wide range of assisted living care and services, including personal care services, 24 hour staffing, support services, and supplemental services. As of December 31, 2009, the Company had ownership interests in 19 communities and leased 15 communities that provide assisted living services, which include communities that combine independent living and other services, with an aggregate capacity for approximately 2,700 residents. The residents of the Company’s assisted living residences generally need help with some or all ADLs, but do not require the more acute medical care traditionally given in nursing homes. Upon admission to the Company’s assisted living communities, and in consultation with the resident, the resident’s family and medical consultants, each resident is assessed to determine his or her health status, including functional abilities and need for personal care services. The resident also completes a lifestyles assessment to determine the resident’s preferences. From these assessments, a care plan is developed for each resident to ensure that all staff members who render care meet the specific needs and preferences of each resident where possible. Each resident’s care plan is reviewed periodically to determine when a change in care is needed.
 
The Company has adopted a philosophy of assisted living care that allows a resident to maintain a dignified independent lifestyle. Residents and their families are encouraged to be partners in the residents’ care and to take as much responsibility for their well being as possible. The basic types of assisted living services offered by the Company include the following:
 
Personal Care Services.  These services include assistance with ADLs such as ambulation, bathing, dressing, eating, grooming, personal hygiene, and monitoring or assistance with medications.
 
Support Services.  These services include meals, assistance with social and recreational activities, laundry services, general housekeeping, maintenance services and transportation services.
 
Supplemental Services.  These services include extra transportation services, personal maintenance, extra laundry services, and special care services, such as services for residents with certain forms of dementia. Certain of these services require extra charges.
 
The Company’s assisted living residents pay a fee ranging from $1,475 to $6,965 per month, in general, depending on the specific community, the level of personal care services, support service and supplemental services provided to the resident, size of the unit and amenities offered. The Company’s contracts with its assisted living residents are generally for a term of one year and are typically terminable by either party, under certain circumstances, upon 30 days notice.

Table of Contents

The Company maintains programs and special units at some of its assisted living communities for residents with certain forms of dementia, which provide the attention, care and services needed to help those residents maintain a higher quality of life. Specialized services include assistance with ADLs, behavior management and life skills based activities programs, the goal of which is to provide a normalized environment that supports residents’ remaining functional abilities. Whenever possible, residents assist with meals, laundry and housekeeping. Special units for residents with certain forms of dementia are located in a separate area of the community and have their own dining facilities, resident lounge areas, and specially trained staff. The special care areas are designed to allow residents the freedom to ambulate as they wish, while keeping them safely contained within a secure area with a minimum of disruption to other residents. Resident fees for these special units are dependent on the size of the unit, the design type and the level of services provided.
 
Continuing Care Retirement Community Services
 
In its continuing care retirement communities, the Company provides traditional long-term care through 24-hour-per-day skilled nursing care by registered nurses, licensed practical nurses and certified nursing assistants as well as assisted living and independent living care. The Company also offers a comprehensive range of restorative nursing and rehabilitation services in its communities including, but not limited to, physical, occupational, speech and medical social services. The Company’s residents receiving skilled nursing services pay fees ranging from $4,225 to $10,440 per month, in general, depending on the specific community and the level of care provided. As of December 31, 2009, the Company had ownership interests in one community and leased one community providing a continuum of care services with an aggregate capacity for approximately 700 residents at all levels of care at those two communities.
 
Home Care Services
 
As of December 31, 2009, the Company provided home care services to clients at one senior living community through the Company’s home care agency and made home care services available to clients at a majority of its senior living communities through third-party providers. The Company believes that the provision of private pay, home care services is an attractive adjunct to its independent living services because it allows the Company to provide more services to its residents as they age in place and increases the length of stay in the Company’s communities. In addition, the Company makes available to residents certain customized physician, dentistry, podiatry and other health-related services that may be offered by third-party providers.

Growth Strategies
 
The Company believes that the fragmented nature of the senior living industry and the limited capital resources available to many small, private operators provide an attractive opportunity for the Company to expand its existing base of senior living operations. The Company believes that its current operations throughout the United States serve as the foundation on which the Company can build senior living networks in targeted geographic markets and thereby provide a broad range of high quality care in a cost-efficient manner.
 
The following are the principal elements of the Company’s growth strategy:
 
Organic Growth
 
The Company intends to continue to focus on the lease-up of its non-stabilized communities and to increase its occupancy, rents and operating margins of its stabilized communities. The Company continually seeks to maintain and improve occupancy rates by: (i) retaining residents as they “age in place” by extending optional care and service programs; (ii) attracting new residents through the on-site marketing programs focused on residents and family members; (iii) aggressively seeking referrals from professional community outreach sources, including area religious organizations, senior social service programs, civic and business networks, as well as the medical community; and (iv) continually refurbishing and renovating its communities. Since 2004, our same community revenue has grown at an average rate of 5.3% per annum and our same community net operating income has grown at an average rate of 8.7% per annum.
 
Expansion and Conversion of Existing Communities
 
The Company intends to increase levels of care and capacity at certain of its existing communities through expansion and/or conversion of certain units. Increasing our levels of care and capacity is expected to increase revenue and operating income while meeting the needs of our residents who have an average age of 85 years old.
 
Pursue Strategic Acquisitions
 
The Company intends to continue to pursue acquisitions of senior living communities. Through strategic acquisitions, joint venture investments, or facility leases, the Company seeks to acquire communities in existing markets as a means to increase market share, augment existing clusters, strengthen its ability to provide a broad range of care, and create operating efficiencies. As the industry continues to consolidate, the Company believes that opportunities will arise to acquire other senior living companies. The Company believes that the current fragmented nature of the senior living industry, combined with the Company’s financial resources, national presence, and extensive contacts within the industry, can be expected to provide it with the opportunity to evaluate a number of potential acquisition opportunities in the future. In reviewing acquisition opportunities, the Company will consider, among other things, geographic location, competitive climate, reputation and quality of management and communities, and the need for renovation or improvement of the communities.
 
Pursue Management Agreements
 
The Company intends to pursue management opportunities for senior living communities. The Company believes that its management infrastructure and proven operating track record will allow the Company to take advantage of increased opportunities in the senior living market for new management contracts and other transactions.

Expand Referral Networks
 
The Company intends to continue to develop relationships with local and regional hospital systems, managed care organizations and other referral sources to attract new residents to the Company’s communities. In certain circumstances these relationships may involve strategic alliances or joint ventures. The Company believes that such arrangements or alliances, which could range from joint marketing arrangements to priority transfer agreements, will enable it to be strategically positioned within the Company’s markets if, as the Company believes, senior living programs become an integral part of the evolving health care delivery system.
 
Operations
 
Centralized Management
 
The Company centralizes its corporate and other administrative functions so that the community-based management and staff can focus their efforts on resident care. The Company maintains centralized accounting, finance, human resources, training and other operational functions at its national corporate office in Dallas, Texas. The Company also has a corporate office in New York, New York. The Company’s corporate offices are generally responsible for: (i) establishing Company-wide policies and procedures relating to, among other things, resident care and operations; (ii) performing accounting functions; (iii) developing employee training programs and materials; (iv) coordinating human resources; (v) coordinating marketing functions; and (vi) providing strategic direction. In addition, financing, development, construction and acquisition activities, including feasibility and market studies, and community design, development, and construction management are conducted at the Company’s corporate offices.
 
The Company seeks to control operational expenses for each of its communities through standardized management reporting and centralized controls of capital expenditures, asset replacement tracking, and purchasing for larger and more frequently used supplies. Community expenditures are monitored by regional and district managers who are accountable for the resident satisfaction and financial performance of the communities in their region.
 
Regional Management
 
The Company provides oversight and support to each of its senior living communities through experienced regional and district managers. A district manager will oversee the marketing and operations of three to six communities clustered in a small geographic area. A regional manager will cover a larger geographic area consisting of seven to twelve communities. In most cases, the district and regional managers will office out of the Company’s senior living communities. Currently, there are regional managers based in the Northeast, Central Plains, Midwest, Southwest and West regions.
 
The executive director at each community reports to a regional or district manager. The regional and district managers report directly to senior management at the Company’s corporate office. The district and regional managers make regular site visits to each of their communities. The site visits involve a physical plant inspection, quality assurance review, staff training, financial and systems audits, regulatory compliance, and team building.
 
Community-Based Management
 
An executive director manages the day-to-day operations at each senior living community, including oversight of the quality of care, delivery of resident services, and monitoring of financial performance. The executive director is also responsible for all personnel, including food service, maintenance, activities, security, assisted living, housekeeping, and, where applicable, nursing. In most cases, each community also has department managers who direct the environmental services, nursing or care services, business management functions, dining services, activities, transportation, housekeeping, and marketing functions.
 
The assisted living and skilled nursing components of the senior living communities are managed by licensed professionals, such as a nurse and/or a licensed administrator. These licensed professionals have many of the same operational responsibilities as the Company’s executive directors, but their primary responsibility is to oversee resident care. Many of the Company’s senior living communities and all of its skilled nursing facilities are part of a


12

campus setting, which include independent living. This campus arrangement allows for cross-utilization of certain support personnel and services, including administrative functions that result in greater operational efficiencies and lower costs than freestanding facilities.
 
The Company actively recruits personnel to maintain adequate staffing levels at its existing communities and hires new staff for new or acquired communities prior to opening. The Company has adopted comprehensive recruiting and screening programs for management positions that utilize corporate office team interviews and thorough background and reference checks. The Company offers system-wide training and orientation for all of its employees at the community level through a combination of Company-sponsored seminars and conferences.
 
Quality Assurance
 
Quality assurance programs are coordinated and implemented by the Company’s corporate and regional staff. The Company’s quality assurance is targeted to achieve maximum resident and resident family member satisfaction with the care and services delivered by the Company. The Company’s primary focus in quality control monitoring includes routine in-service training and performance evaluations of caregivers and other support employees. Additional quality assurance measures include:
 
Resident and Resident’s Family Input.  On a routine basis, the Company provides residents and their family members the opportunity to provide valuable input regarding the day-to-day delivery of services. On-site management at each community has fostered and encouraged active resident councils and resident committees who meet independently. These resident bodies meet with on-site management on a monthly basis to offer input and suggestions as to the quality and delivery of services. Additionally, at each community the Company conducts annual resident satisfaction surveys to further monitor the satisfaction levels of both residents and their family members. These surveys are sent directly to a third party firm for tabulation then to the Company’s corporate headquarters for distribution to onsite staff. For both 2009 and 2008, the Company achieved 95% approval ratings from its residents. For any departmental area of service scoring below a 90%, a plan of correction is developed jointly by on-site, regional and corporate staff for immediate implementation.
 
Regular Community Inspections.  Each community is inspected, on at least a quarterly basis, by regional and/or corporate staff. Included as part of this inspection is the monitoring of the overall appearance and maintenance of the community interiors and grounds. The inspection also includes monitoring staff professionalism and departmental reviews of maintenance, housekeeping, activities, transportation, marketing, administration and food and health care services, if applicable. The inspections also include observing residents in their daily activities and the community’s compliance with government regulations.
 
Independent Service Evaluations.  The Company engages the services of outside professional independent consulting firms to evaluate various components of the community operations. These services include mystery shops, competing community analysis, pricing recommendations and product positioning. This provides management with valuable unbiased product and service information. A plan of action regarding any areas requiring improvement or change is implemented based on information received. At communities where health care is delivered, these consulting service reviews include the on-site handling of medications, record keeping and general compliance with all governmental regulations.
 
Marketing
 
Most communities are staffed by on-site sales directors and additional marketing/sales staff depending on the community size and occupancy status. The primary focus of the on-site marketing staff is to create awareness of the Company and its services among prospective residents and family members, professional referral sources and other key decision makers. These efforts incorporate an aggressive marketing plan to include monthly, quarterly and annual goals for leasing, new lead generation, prospect follow up, community outreach and resident and family referrals. Additionally, the marketing plan includes a calendar of promotional events and a comprehensive media program. On-site marketing departments perform a competing community assessment quarterly. Corporate and regional marketing directors monitor the on-site marketing departments’ effectiveness and productivity on a monthly basis. Routine detailed marketing department audits are performed on an annual basis or more frequently if deemed necessary. Corporate and regional personnel assist in the development of marketing strategies for each

community and produce creative media, assist in direct mail programs and necessary marketing collateral. Ongoing sales training of on-site marketing/sales staff is implemented by corporate and regional marketing directors.
 
In the case of new development, the corporate and regional staff develops a comprehensive community outreach program that is implemented at the start of construction. A marketing pre-lease program is developed and on-site marketing staff are hired and trained to begin the program implementation six to nine months prior to the community opening. Extensive use of media, including radio, television, print, direct mail and telemarketing, is implemented during this pre-lease phase.
 
After the community is opened and sustaining occupancy levels are attained, the on-site marketing staff is more heavily focused on resident and resident family referrals, as well as professional referrals. A maintenance program for continued lead generation is then implemented.
 
Government Regulation
 
Changes in existing laws and regulations, adoption of new laws and regulations and new interpretations of existing laws and regulations could have a material effect on the Company’s operations. Failure by the Company to comply with applicable regulatory requirements could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations. Accordingly, the Company monitors legal and regulatory developments on local and national levels.
 
The health care industry is subject to extensive regulation and frequent regulatory change. At this time, no federal laws or regulations specifically regulate assisted or independent living residences. While a number of states have not yet enacted specific assisted living regulations, certain of the Company’s assisted living communities are subject to regulation, licensing, CON and permitting by state and local health care and social service agencies and other regulatory authorities. While such requirements vary from state to state, they typically relate to staffing, physical design, required services and resident characteristics. The Company believes that such regulation will increase in the future. In addition, health care providers are receiving increased scrutiny under anti-trust laws as integration and consolidation of health care delivery increases and affects competition. The Company’s communities are also subject to various zoning restrictions, local building codes, and other ordinances, such as fire safety codes. Failure by the Company to comply with applicable regulatory requirements could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. Regulation of the assisted living industry is evolving. The Company is unable to predict the content of new regulations and their effect on its business. There can be no assurance that the Company’s operations will not be adversely affected by regulatory developments.
 
The Company believes that its communities are in substantial compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. However, in the ordinary course of business, one or more of the Company’s communities could be cited for deficiencies. In such cases, the appropriate corrective action would be taken. To the Company’s knowledge, no material regulatory actions are currently pending with respect to any of the Company’s communities.
 
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (“ADA”), all places of public accommodation are required to meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. A number of additional federal, state and local laws exist that also may require modifications to existing and planned properties to permit access to the properties by disabled persons. While the Company believes that its communities are substantially in compliance with present requirements or are exempt therefrom, if required changes involve a greater expenditure than anticipated or must be made on a more accelerated basis than anticipated, additional costs would be incurred by the Company. Further legislation may impose additional burdens or restrictions with respect to access by disabled persons, the costs of compliance with which could be substantial.
 
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”), in conjunction with the federal regulations promulgated thereunder by the Department of Health and Human Services, has established, among other requirements, standards governing the privacy of certain protected and individually identifiable health information (“PHI”) that is created, received or maintained by a range of covered entities. HIPAA has also established standards governing uniform health care transactions, the codes and identifiers to be used by the covered entities and standards governing the security of certain electronic transactions conducted by covered entities.

Penalties for violations can range from civil money penalties for errors and negligent acts to criminal fines and imprisonment for knowing and intentional misconduct. HIPAA is a complex set of regulations and many unanswered questions remain with respect to the manner in which HIPAA applies to businesses such as those operated by the Company.
 
In addition, the Company is subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. Such laws and regulations often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. The costs of any required remediation or removal of these substances could be substantial and the liability of an owner or operator as to any property is generally not limited under such laws and regulations and could exceed the property’s value and the aggregate assets of the owner or operator. The presence of these substances or failure to remediate such contamination properly may also adversely affect the owner’s ability to sell or rent the property, or to borrow using the property as collateral. Under these laws and regulations, an owner, operator or an entity that arranges for the disposal of hazardous or toxic substances, such as asbestos-containing materials, at a disposal site may also be liable for the costs of any required remediation or removal of the hazardous or toxic substances at the disposal site. In connection with the ownership or operation of its properties, the Company could be liable for these costs, as well as certain other costs, including governmental fines and injuries to persons or properties. The Company has completed Phase I environmental audits of substantially all of the communities in which the Company owns interests, typically at the time of acquisition, and such audits have not revealed any material environmental liabilities that exist with respect to these communities.
 
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be required to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum product releases at such property, and may be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage and for investigation and clean up costs. The Company is not aware of any environmental liability with respect to any of its owned, leased or managed communities that the Company believes would have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, or results of operations. The Company believes that its communities are in compliance in all material respects with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products. The Company has not been notified by any governmental authority, and is not otherwise aware of any material non-compliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products in connection with any of the communities the Company currently operates.
 
The Company believes that the structure and composition of government and, specifically, health care regulations will continue to change and, as a result, regularly monitors developments in the law. The Company expects to modify its agreements and operations from time to time as the business and regulatory environments change. While the Company believes it will be able to structure all its agreements and operations in accordance with applicable law, there can be no assurance that its arrangements will not be successfully challenged.
 
Competition
 
The senior living industry is highly competitive, and the Company expects that all segments of the industry will become increasingly competitive in the future. Although there are a number of substantial companies active in the senior living industry and in the markets in which the Company operates, the industry continues to be very fragmented and characterized by numerous small operators. The Company primarily competes with Assisted Living Concepts, Brookdale Senior Living Inc., Emeritus Corporation, Five Star Quality Care, Inc., Holiday Retirement Corporation and Sunrise Senior Living, Inc. The Company believes that the primary competitive factors in the senior living industry are: (i) location; (ii) reputation for and commitment to a high quality of service; (iii) quality of support services offered (such as food services); (iv) price of services; and (v) physical appearance and amenities associated with the communities. The Company competes with other companies providing independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, home health care, and other similar service and care alternatives, some of whom may have greater financial resources than the Company. Because seniors tend to choose senior living communities near their homes, the Company’s principal competitors are other senior living and long-term care communities in the same geographic areas as the Company’s communities. The Company also competes with other health care businesses with respect to attracting and retaining nurses, technicians, aides and other high quality professional and non-professional employees and managers.

Subsidiaries
 
Capital Senior Living Corporation is the parent company of several direct and indirect subsidiaries. Although Capital Senior Living Corporation and its subsidiaries are referred to for ease of reference in this Form 10-K as the Company, these subsidiaries are separately incorporated and maintain their legal existence separate and apart from the parent, Capital Senior Living Corporation.
 
ITEM 1A.   RISK FACTORS.
 
Our business involves various risks. When evaluating our business the following information should be carefully considered in conjunction with the other information contained in our periodic filings with the SEC. Additional risks and uncertainties not known to us currently or that currently we deem to be immaterial also may impair our business operations. If we are unable to prevent events that have a negative effect from occurring, then our business may suffer. Negative events are likely to decrease our revenue, increase our costs, make our financial results poorer and/or decrease our financial strength, and may cause our stock price to decline.
 
We have significant debt and our failure to generate cash flow sufficient to cover required interest and principal payments could result in defaults of the related debt.
 
As of December 31, 2009, we had mortgage and other indebtedness totaling approximately $183.2 million. We cannot assure you that we will generate cash flow from operations or receive proceeds from refinancings, other financings or the sales of assets sufficient to cover required interest and principal payments. Any payment or other default could cause the applicable lender to foreclose upon the communities securing the indebtedness with a consequent loss of income and asset value to us. Further, because some of our mortgages contain cross-default and


17


Table of Contents

cross-collateralization provisions, a payment or other default by us with respect to one community could affect a significant number of our other communities.
 
We have significant operating lease obligations and our failure to generate cash flows sufficient to cover these lease obligations could result in defaults under the lease agreements.
 
As of December 31, 2009, we leased 25 communities with future lease obligations totaling approximately $179.1 million, with minimum lease obligations of $28.9 million in fiscal 2010. We cannot assure you that we will generate cash flow from operations or receive proceeds from refinancings, other financings or the sales of assets sufficient to cover these required operating lease obligations. Any payment or other default under any such lease could result in the termination of the lease, with a consequent loss of income and asset value to us. Further, because our leases contain cross-default provisions, a payment or other default by us with respect to one leased community could affect all of our other leased communities with related lessors. Certain of our leases contain various financial and other restrictive covenants, which could limit our flexibility in operating our business. Failure to maintain compliance with the lease obligations as set forth in our lease agreements could have a material adverse impact on us.
 
Our failure to comply with financial covenants and other restrictions contained in debt instruments and lease agreements could result in the acceleration of the related debt or lease or in the exercise of other remedies.
 
Our outstanding indebtedness and leases are secured by our communities, and, in certain cases, a guaranty by one or more of our subsidiaries. Therefore, an event of default under the outstanding indebtedness or leases, subject to cure provisions in certain instances, would give the respective lenders or lessors, as applicable, the right to declare all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable, terminate the lease, or foreclose on collateral securing the outstanding indebtedness and leases.
 
There are various financial covenants and other restrictions in certain of our debt instruments and lease agreements, including provisions which:
 
  •  require us to meet specified financial tests at the subsidiary company level, which include, but are not limited to, tangible net worth requirements;
 
  •  require us to meet specified financial tests at the community level, which include, but are not limited to, occupancy requirements and lease coverage tests; and
 
  •  require consent for changes in control of us.
 
If we fail to comply with any of these requirements, then the related indebtedness or lease obligations could become due and payable prior to their stated dates. We cannot assure that we could pay these debt or lease obligations if they became due.
 
We will require additional financing and/or refinancings in the future and may issue equity securities.
 
Our ability to obtain such financing or refinancing on terms acceptable to us could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations. Our ability to meet our long-term capital requirements, including the repayment of certain long-term debt obligations, will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain additional financing or refinancings on acceptable terms from available financing sources, including through the use of mortgage financing, joint venture arrangements, by accessing the debt and/or equity markets and possibly through operating leases or other types of financing, such as lines of credit. Recent turmoil in the financial markets has severely restricted the availability of funds for borrowing and may make it more difficult or costly for us to raise capital. There can be no assurance that financing or refinancings will be available or that, if available, will be on terms acceptable to us. Moreover, raising additional funds through the issuance of equity securities could cause existing stockholders to experience dilution and could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. The disruptions in the financial markets have had and may continue to have a significant adverse effect on the market value of our common stock and other adverse effects on us and our business. Our inability to obtain additional financing or refinancings on terms acceptable to us could delay or eliminate some or all of our


18


Table of Contents

growth plans, necessitate the sales of assets at unfavorable prices or both, and would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations.
 
Any future floating rate debt and lease obligations could expose us to rising interest rates.
 
Future indebtedness and lease obligations, if applicable, may be based on floating interest rates prevailing from time to time. Therefore, increases in prevailing interest rates could increase in the future our interest or lease payment obligations and could in the future have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations.
 
We cannot assure that we will be able to effectively manage our growth.
 
We intend to expand our operations, directly or indirectly, through the acquisition of existing senior living communities, the expansion of some of our existing senior living communities, the development of new senior living communities and/or through an increase in the number of communities which we manage under management agreements. The success of our growth strategy will depend, in large part, on our ability to implement these plans and to effectively operate these communities. If we are unable to manage our growth effectively, our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations may be adversely affected.
 
We cannot assure that we will attempt to, or be able to, acquire additional senior living communities, expand existing senior living communities, or develop new senior living communities.
 
The acquisition of existing communities or other businesses involves a number of risks. Existing communities available for acquisition frequently serve or target different markets than those presently served by us. We may also determine that renovations of acquired communities and changes in staff and operating management personnel are necessary to successfully integrate those communities or businesses into our existing operations. The costs incurred to reposition or renovate newly acquired communities may not be recovered by us. In undertaking acquisitions, we also may be adversely impacted by unforeseen liabilities attributable to the prior operators of those communities or businesses, against whom we may have little or no recourse. The success of our acquisition strategy will be determined by numerous factors, including our ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates; the competition for those acquisitions; the purchase price; the requirement to make operational or structural changes and improvements; the financial performance of the communities or businesses after acquisition; our ability to finance the acquisitions; and our ability to integrate effectively any acquired communities or businesses into our management, information, and operating systems. We cannot assure that our acquisition of senior living communities or other businesses will be completed at the rate currently expected, if at all, or if completed, that any acquired communities or businesses will be successfully integrated into our operations.
 
Our ability to successfully expand existing senior living communities or develop new senior living communities will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, our ability to acquire suitable sites at reasonable prices; our success in obtaining necessary zoning, licensing, and other required governmental permits and authorizations; and our ability to control construction costs and accurately project completion schedules. Additionally, we anticipate that the development of new senior living communities or the expansion of existing senior living communities may involve a substantial commitment of capital for a period of time of two years or more until the new senior living communities or expansions are operating and producing revenue, the consequence of which could be an adverse impact on our liquidity.
 
Termination of resident agreements and resident attrition could affect adversely our revenues and earnings.
 
State regulations governing assisted living facilities require written resident agreements with each resident. Most of these regulations also require that each resident have the right to terminate the resident agreement for any reason on reasonable notice. Consistent with these regulations, the resident agreements signed by us allow residents to terminate their agreement on 30 days’ notice. Thus, we cannot contract with residents to stay for longer periods of time, unlike typical apartment leasing arrangements that involve lease agreements with specified leasing periods of up to a year or longer. If a large number of residents elected to terminate their resident agreements at or around the


19


Table of Contents

same time, then our revenues and earnings could be adversely affected. In addition, the advanced age of our average resident means that the resident turnover rate in our senior living facilities may be difficult to predict.
 
We largely rely on private pay residents and circumstances that adversely affect the ability of the elderly to pay for our services could have a material adverse effect on us.
 
Approximately 94% of our total revenues from communities that we operated were attributable to private pay sources and approximately 6% of our revenues from these communities were attributable to reimbursements from Medicare and Medicaid during fiscal 2009. We expect to continue to rely primarily on the ability of residents to pay for our services from their own or family financial resources. The current unfavorable economic conditions in the housing, financial, and credit markets, inflation, or other circumstances that adversely affect the ability of the elderly to pay for our services could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations.
 
We are subject to risks related to third-party management agreements.
 
At December 31, 2009, we managed one senior living community for a third party and 15 senior living communities for joint ventures in which we have a minority interest pursuant to multi-year management agreements. The management agreements generally have initial terms of five years, subject to certain renewal rights. Under these agreements we provide management services to third party and joint venture owners to operate senior living communities and have provided, and may in the future provide, management and consulting services to third parties on market and site selection, pre-opening sales and marketing, start-up training and management services for facilities under development and construction. In most cases, either party to the agreements may terminate them upon the occurrence of an event of default caused by the other party. In addition, subject to our rights to cure deficiencies, community owners may terminate us as manager if any licenses or certificates necessary for operation are revoked, or if we have a change of control. Also, in some instances, a community owner may terminate the management agreement relating to a particular community if we are in default under other management agreements relating to other communities owned by the same community owner or its affiliates. In addition, in certain cases the community owner may terminate the agreement upon 30 days’ notice to us in the event of a sale of the community. In those agreements, which are terminable in the event of a sale of the community, we have certain rights to offer to purchase the community. The termination of a significant portion of our management agreements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations.
 
Failure to perform our obligations under our joint venture arrangements could have a material adverse effect on us.
 
We hold minority interests ranging from approximately 5% to 15% in several joint ventures with affiliates of Prudential and GE Healthcare. We also manage the communities owned by these joint ventures. Under the terms of the joint venture agreements with Prudential covering seven properties, we are obligated to meet certain cash flow targets and failure to meet these cash flow targets could result in termination of the management agreements. Under the terms of the joint venture agreements with GE Healthcare covering eight properties, we are obligated to meet certain net operating income targets and failure to meet these net operating income targets could result in termination of the management agreements.
 
The Company, on three joint venture developments with Prudential Investment, has guarantees that the communities will be completed at the budgeted costs approved by the joint venture members. These costs include the hard and soft construction costs and operating costs until the community reaches stabilization. The budgeted costs include contingency reserves for potential costs overruns and other unforeseen costs. In addition, each of these joint ventures has entered into guaranteed fixed price construction contracts with the general contractors on each of the developments. The Company would be required to fund these guarantees if the actual development costs incurred by the joint venture exceed the budgeted costs for the development. The terms of these guarantees generally do not provide for a limitation on the maximum potential future payments. The Company has not made any payments under these guarantees.


20


Table of Contents

All of the management agreements with the joint ventures contain termination and renewal provisions. We do not control these joint venture decisions covering termination or renewal. Performance of the above obligations or termination or non-renewal of the management agreements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations.
 
The senior living services industry is very competitive and some competitors may have substantially greater financial resources than us.
 
The senior living services industry is highly competitive, and we expect that all segments of the industry will become increasingly competitive in the future. We compete with other companies providing independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, home health care and other similar services and care alternatives. We also compete with other health care businesses with respect to attracting and retaining nurses, technicians, aides and other high quality professional and non-professional employees and managers. Although we believe there is a need for senior living communities in the markets where we operate residences, we expect that competition will increase from existing competitors and new market entrants, some of whom may have substantially greater financial resources than us. In addition, some of our competitors operate on a not-for-profit basis or as charitable organizations and have the ability to finance capital expenditures on a tax-exempt basis or through the receipt of charitable contributions, neither of which are available to us. Furthermore, if the development of new senior living communities outpaces the demand for those communities in the markets in which we have senior living communities, those markets may become saturated. Regulation in the independent and assisted living industry, which represents a substantial portion of our senior living services, is not substantial. Consequently, development of new senior living communities could outpace demand. An oversupply of those communities in our markets could cause us to experience decreased occupancy, reduced operating margins and lower profitability.
 
We rely on the services of key executive officers and the loss of these officers or their services could have a material adverse effect on us.
 
We depend on the services of our executive officers for our management. The loss of some of our executive officers and the inability to attract and retain qualified management personnel could affect our ability to manage our business and could adversely affect our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations.
 
A significant increase in our labor costs could have a material adverse effect on us.
 
We compete with other providers of senior living services with respect to attracting and retaining qualified management personnel responsible for the day-to-day operations of each of our communities and skilled personnel responsible for providing resident care. A shortage of nurses or trained personnel may require us to enhance our wage and benefits package in order to compete in the hiring and retention of these personnel or to hire more expensive temporary personnel. We also will be dependent on the available labor pool of semi-skilled and unskilled employees in each of the markets in which we operate. No assurance can be given that our labor costs will not increase, or that, if they do increase, they can be matched by corresponding increases in rates charged to residents. Any significant failure by us to control our labor costs or to pass on any increased labor costs to residents through rate increases could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations.
 
There is an inherent risk of liability in the provision of personal and health care services, not all of which may be covered by insurance.
 
The provision of personal and health care services in the long-term care industry entails an inherent risk of liability. In recent years, participants in the long-term care industry have become subject to an increasing number of lawsuits alleging negligence or related legal theories, many of which involve large claims and result in the incurrence of significant defense costs. Moreover, senior living communities offer residents a greater degree of independence in their daily living. This increased level of independence may subject the resident and, therefore, us to risks that would be reduced in more institutionalized settings. We currently maintain insurance in amounts we believe are comparable to those maintained by other senior living companies based on the nature of the risks, our historical experience and industry standards, and we believe that this insurance coverage is adequate. However, we


21


Table of Contents

may become subject to claims in excess of our insurance or claims not covered by our insurance, such as claims for punitive damages, terrorism and natural disasters. A claim against us not covered by, or in excess of, our insurance could have a material adverse effect upon us.
 
In addition, our insurance policies must be renewed annually. Based upon poor loss experience, insurers for the long-term care industry have become increasingly wary of liability exposure. A number of insurance carriers have stopped writing coverage to this market, and those remaining have increased premiums and deductibles substantially. Therefore, we cannot assure that we will be able to obtain liability insurance in the future or that, if that insurance is available, it will be available on acceptable economic terms.
 
We are subject to government regulations and compliance, some of which are burdensome and some of which may change to our detriment in the future.
 
Federal and state governments regulate various aspects of our business. The development and operation of senior living communities and the provision of health care services are subject to federal, state and local licensure, certification and inspection laws that regulate, among other matters, the number of licensed beds, the provision of services, the distribution of pharmaceuticals, billing practices and policies, equipment, staffing (including professional licensing), operating policies and procedures, fire prevention measures, environmental matters and compliance with building and safety codes. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations could result in the denial of reimbursement, the imposition of fines, temporary suspension of admission of new residents, suspension or decertification from the Medicare program, restrictions on the ability to acquire new communities or expand existing communities and, in extreme cases, the revocation of a community’s license or closure of a community. We believe that such regulation will increase in the future and we are unable to predict the content of new regulations or their effect on our business, any of which could materially adversely affect us.
 
Various states, including several of the states in which we currently operate, control the supply of licensed skilled nursing beds, assisted living communities and home health care agencies through CON or other programs. In those states, approval is required for the construction of new health care communities, the addition of licensed beds and some capital expenditures at those communities, as well as the opening of a home health care agency. To the extent that a CON or other similar approval is required for the acquisition or construction of new communities, the expansion of the number of licensed beds, services, or existing communities, or the opening of a home health care agency, we could be adversely affected by our failure or inability to obtain that approval, changes in the standards applicable for that approval, and possible delays and expenses associated with obtaining that approval. In addition, in most states, the reduction of the number of licensed beds or the closure of a community requires the approval of the appropriate state regulatory agency and, if we were to seek to reduce the number of licensed beds at, or to close, a community, we could be adversely affected by a failure to obtain or a delay in obtaining that approval.
 
Federal and state anti-remuneration laws, such as “anti-kickback” laws, govern some financial arrangements among health care providers and others who may be in a position to refer or recommend patients to those providers. These laws prohibit, among other things, some direct and indirect payments that are intended to induce the referral of patients to, the arranging for services by, or the recommending of, a particular provider of health care items or services. Federal anti-kickback laws have been broadly interpreted to apply to some contractual relationships between health care providers and sources of patient referral. Similar state laws vary, are sometimes vague, and seldom have been interpreted by courts or regulatory agencies. Violation of these laws can result in loss of licensure, civil and criminal penalties, and exclusion of health care providers or suppliers from participation in Medicare and Medicaid programs. There can be no assurance that those laws will be interpreted in a manner consistent with our practices.
 
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, all places of public accommodation are required to meet federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. A number of additional federal, state and local laws exist that also may require modifications to existing and planned communities to create access to the properties by disabled persons. Although we believe that our communities are substantially in compliance with present requirements or are exempt therefrom, if required changes involve a greater expenditure than anticipated or must be made on a more accelerated basis than anticipated, additional costs would be incurred by us. Further legislation may


22


Table of Contents

impose additional burdens or restrictions with respect to access by disabled persons, the costs of compliance with which could be substantial.
 
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, in conjunction with the federal regulations promulgated thereunder by the Department of Health and Human Services, has established, among other requirements, standards governing the privacy of certain protected and individually identifiable health information that is created, received or maintained by a range of covered entities. HIPAA has also established standards governing uniform health care transactions, the codes and identifiers to be used by the covered entities and standards governing the security of certain electronic transactions conducted by covered entities. Penalties for violations can range from civil money penalties for errors and negligent acts to criminal fines and imprisonment for knowing and intentional misconduct. HIPAA is a complex set of regulations and many unanswered questions remain with respect to the manner in which HIPAA applies to businesses such as those operated by us.
 
An increasing number of legislative initiatives have been introduced or proposed in recent years that would result in major changes in the health care delivery system on a national or a state level. Among the proposals that have been introduced are price controls on hospitals, insurance market reforms to increase the availability of group health insurance to small businesses, requirements that all businesses offer health insurance coverage to their employees and the creation of government health insurance plans that would cover all citizens and increase payments by beneficiaries. We cannot predict whether any of the above proposals or other proposals will be adopted and, if adopted, no assurances can be given that their implementation will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
We may be subject to liability for environmental damages.
 
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be required to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum product releases at the property, and may be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage and for investigation and clean up costs incurred by those parties in connection with the contamination. These laws typically impose clean-up responsibility and liability without regard to whether the owner knew of or caused the presence of the contaminants, and liability under these laws has been interpreted to be joint and several unless the harm is divisible and there is a reasonable basis for allocation of responsibility. The costs of investigation, remediation or removal of the substances may be substantial, and the presence of the substances, or the failure to properly remediate the property, may adversely affect the owner’s ability to sell or lease the property or to borrow using the property as collateral. In addition, some environmental laws create a lien on the contaminated site in favor of the government for damages and costs it incurs in connection with the contamination. Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances also may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of the substances at the disposal or treatment facility, whether or not the facility is owned or operated by the person. Finally, the owner of a site may be subject to common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from a site. If we become subject to any of these claims the costs involved could be significant and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations.
 
Anti-takeover provisions in our governing documents, governing law, material agreements and our shareholder rights plan may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that our stockholders may consider favorable or prevent the removal of our current board of directors and management.
 
Certain provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated by-laws may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that our stockholders may consider favorable or prevent the removal of our current board of directors and management. We have a number of anti-takeover devices in place that will hinder takeover attempts, including: a staggered board of directors consisting of three classes of directors, each of whom serve three-year terms; removal of directors only for cause, and only with the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the voting interest of stockholders entitled to vote; right of our directors to issue preferred stock from time to time with voting, economic and other rights superior to those of our common stock without the consent of our stockholders; provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws limiting the right of our stockholders to call special meetings of stockholders;

Table of Contents

advance notice requirements for stockholders with respect to director nominations and actions to be taken at annual meetings; requirement for two-thirds stockholder approval for amendment of our by-laws and certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation; and no provision in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation for cumulative voting in the election of directors, which means that the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock can elect all the directors standing for election.
 
Several of our leases, loan documents and other material agreements require approval in case of a change of control of our company. These provisions may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of our company even if this change of control would benefit our stockholders.
 
In addition to the anti-takeover provisions described above, we are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Section 203 generally prohibits a person beneficially owning, directly or in directly, 15% or more of our outstanding common stock from engaging in a business combination with us for three years after the person acquired the stock. However, this prohibition does not apply if (A) our directors approve in advance the person’s ownership of 15% or more of the shares or the business combination or (B) the business combination is approved by our stockholders by a vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares not owned by the acquiring person. Also, our board of directors adopted a stockholder rights plan, which may discourage a third party from making an unsolicited proposal to acquire 20% or more of our common stock.

ITEM 2.   PROPERTIES.
 
The executive and administrative offices of the Company are located at 14160 Dallas Parkway, Suite 300, Dallas, Texas 75254, and consist of approximately 26,000 square feet. The lease on the premises extends through May 2013.

As of December 31, 2009, the Company owned, leased and/or managed the senior living communities referred to in Item 1 above under the caption “Operating Communities.”
 
ITEM 3.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
 
The Company has claims incurred in the normal course of its business. Most of these claims are believed by management to be covered by insurance, subject to normal reservations of rights by the insurance companies and possibly subject to certain exclusions in the applicable insurance policies. Whether or not covered by insurance, these claims, in the opinion of management, based on advice of legal counsel, should not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company if determined adversely to the Company.

including, without limitation, those relating to the Company’s future business prospects, revenues, working capital, liquidity, capital needs, interest costs, and income, are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements, due to several important factors herein identified. These factors include the Company’s ability to find suitable acquisition properties at favorable terms, financing, licensing, business conditions, risks of downturn in economic conditions generally, satisfaction of closing conditions such as those pertaining to licensure, availability of insurance at commercially reasonable rates, and changes in accounting principles and interpretations, among others, and other risks and factors identified from time to time in the Company’s reports filed with the SEC.
 
Overview
 
The following discussion and analysis addresses (i) the Company’s results of operations on a historical consolidated basis for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007, and (ii) liquidity and capital resources of the Company and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements and the selected financial data contained elsewhere in this report.
 
The Company is one of the largest operators of senior living communities in the United States. The Company’s operating strategy is to provide quality senior living services to its residents, while achieving and sustaining a strong, competitive position within its chosen markets, as well as to continue to enhance the performance of its operations. The Company provides senior living services to the elderly, including independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing and home care services.
 
As of December 31, 2009, the Company operated 66 senior living communities in 23 states with an aggregate capacity of approximately 10,200 residents, including 40 senior living communities which the Company either owned or in which the Company had an ownership interest, 25 senior living communities that the Company leased and one senior living community it managed for a third party. As of December 31, 2009, the Company also operated one home care agency.
 
Significant Financial and Operational Highlights
 
The Company’s operating strategy is to provide quality senior living communities and services to its residents, while achieving and sustaining a strong, competitive position within its chosen markets, as well as to continue to enhance the performance of its operations. The Company provides senior living services to the elderly, including independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing and home care services. Many of the Company’s communities offer a continuum of care to meet its residents’ needs as they change over time. This continuum of care, which integrates independent living and assisted living and is bridged by home care through independent home care agencies or the Company’s home care agency, sustains residents’ autonomy and independence based on their physical and mental abilities.
 
The Company primarily derives its revenue by providing senior living and healthcare services to the elderly and managing senior living communities for other healthcare providers and under joint venture arrangements. During 2009, the Company generated revenues totaling $192.0 million of which approximately 89.2% of these revenues consisted of senior living and healthcare services. Although total revenues decreased 0.7% from fiscal 2008, the Company achieved a reduction in total expenses of $0.9 million or 0.5% during fiscal 2009.
 
During 2009, the Company was able to decrease operating expenses $2.5 million and general and administrative expenses $1.8 million when compared to fiscal 2008. These reductions were primarily the result of the Company’s ability to leverage resources and identify areas where overhead could be reduced without compromising superior levels of service and care to our residents.
 
In addition to the decreases that occurred in expenses during fiscal 2009, the Company was able to repay $8.3 million of its outstanding debt obligations, further reducing its exposure to the volatility in the credit markets. These repayments enabled the Company to reduce interest expense by approximately $0.4 million in fiscal 2009.
 
In January 2009, the Company announced that the Company’s board of directors approved the implementation of a stock repurchase program of up to $10 million of the Company’s common stock. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of its common stock and has no stated expiration date.


29


Table of Contents

Purchases under the program may be made from time to time using a variety of methods, including open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or block trades or by any combination of such methods. As of December 31, 2009, the Company has acquired 349,800 shares of its common stock at a total cost of approximately $0.9 million. All such purchases were made in open market transactions.
 
The senior living industry continues to be negatively impacted by unfavorable conditions in the housing, credit and financial markets and deteriorating conditions in the overall economy, generally resulting in lower than anticipated occupancy rates. Throughout fiscal 2009, in response to these conditions, the Company has continued to focus on reducing overhead while maintaining an emphasis on occupancy increases, improvement in rental rates, expense management and growth in net operating income per unit, increasing levels of care through conversions, and other opportunities to enhance shareholder value.
 
Management Agreements
 
As of December 31, 2009, the Company managed 15 communities owned by joint ventures in which the Company has a minority interest and one community owned by a third party. For communities owned by joint ventures and third parties, the Company typically receives a management fee of 5% of gross revenues.
 
The Company believes that the factors affecting the financial performance of communities managed under contracts with third parties do not vary substantially from the factors affecting the performance of owned and leased communities, although there are different business risks associated with these activities.
 
The Company’s third-party management fees are primarily based on a percentage of gross revenues. As a result, the cash flow and profitability of such contracts to the Company are more dependent on the revenues generated by such communities and less dependent on net cash flow than for owned communities. Further, the Company is not responsible for capital investments in managed communities. The management contracts are generally terminable only for cause and upon the sale of a community, subject to the Company’s rights to offer to purchase such community.
 
Lease Transactions
 
The Company currently leases 25 senior living communities with certain real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). The lease terms are generally for ten years with renewal options for 10-20 years at the Company’s option. Under these lease agreements the Company is responsible for all operating costs, maintenance and repairs, insurance and property taxes.
 
As of December 31, 2009, the Company leased ten senior living facilities (collectively the “Ventas Lease Agreements’), from Ventas Healthcare Properties, Inc. (“Ventas”). The Ventas Lease Agreements each have an initial term of approximately ten years, with two five-year renewal extensions available at the Company’s option. The initial lease rate under each of the Ventas Lease Agreements range from 7.75% to 8% and are subject to certain conditional escalation clauses which will be recognized when estimatable or incurred. The initial terms on the Ventas Lease Agreements expire on various dates through January 2018. The Company incurred $2.2 million in lease acquisition costs related to the Ventas Lease Agreements. These deferred lease acquisition costs are being amortized over the initial 10 year lease terms and are included in facility lease expense in the Company’s statement of income. The Company accounts for each of the Ventas Lease Agreements as operating leases.
 
As of December 31, 2009, the Company leased 15 senior living facilities (collectively the “HCP Lease Agreements”), from HCP, Inc. (“HCP”). The HCP Lease Agreements each have an initial term of ten years, with two ten year renewal extensions available at the Company’s option. The initial lease rate under the HCP Lease Agreements range from 7.25% to 8% and are subject to certain conditional escalation clauses, which will be recognized when estimatable or incurred. The initial terms on the HCP Lease Agreements expire on various dates through December 2017. The Company incurred $1.5 million in lease acquisition costs related to the HCP Lease Agreements. These deferred lease acquisition costs are being amortized over the initial 10 year lease terms and are included in facility lease expense in the Company’s statement of income. The Company accounts for each of the HCP Lease Agreements as operating leases.

Community Refinancings and Other Debt Transactions
 
On October 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company renewed certain insurance policies and entered into finance agreements totaling $0.5 million. The finance agreements have fixed interest rates of 3.66% and 4.78%, respectively, with principal being repaid over 10-month terms.
 
On May 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company renewed certain insurance policies and entered into finance agreements totaling $1.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The finance agreements have fixed interest rates of 3.66% and 3.75%, respectively, with principal being repaid over 10-month terms.

The Company’s second installment on its note payable to Covenant, which was due on August 15, 2007, was reduced by $0.4 million pursuant to the terms of the stock purchase agreement, resulting in no amount due to Covenant and a reduction in the Company’s note payable to Covenant of approximately $0.3 million, which was reflected as management services revenue in the Company’s consolidated statement of income. In addition, under the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company had the right to recapture certain contingent payments made to Covenant if the Company did not receive the required minimum management services revenue set forth in the stock purchase agreement. As a result of these provisions, during the third quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company recorded a receivable and management services revenue of approximately $0.4 million. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, Covenant paid this receivable and executed an amendment to the stock purchase agreement releasing the Company from any future obligations under the Company’s note payable to Covenant. As a result the Company recognized additional management services revenue of approximately $0.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007.
 
On May 3, 2007, the Company refinanced $30.0 million of mortgage debt on four senior living communities with Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”). As part of the refinancing, the Company repaid approximately $2.7 million of mortgage debt on the four communities. The new mortgage loans have a ten-year term with interest fixed at 5.91% and principal amortized over a 30-year term. The Company incurred $0.5 million in deferred financing costs related to this loan, which is being amortized over ten years. In addition, as part of this refinancing, the Company wrote-off $0.4 million in deferred loan costs. The new loans replaced $32.7 million of variable rate debt with an effective interest rate of 7.6%.

Recent Events
 
On January 4, 2010, the Company announced that Midwest I has entered into an agreement to sell five senior living communities to Health Care REIT, Inc. (“HCN”). Upon closing the transaction, the Company will lease the communities from HCN. The Company currently manages the five communities in the Midwest I joint venture under long-term management agreements.
 
On February 25, 2010, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has unanimously adopted a new stockholder rights plan to become effective upon the expiration of its existing rights agreement. The Company’s existing rights agreement expired on March 9, 2010. The provisions in the new rights agreement are significantly more shareholder-friendly than the agreement it replaces, including an “acquiring person” trigger of 20 percent versus the current 15 percent trigger; a term of no more than three years versus the current ten-year term; and a requirement that the agreement must be approved by a vote of the stockholders at the Company’s 2010 annual meeting.
 
On March 4, 2010, the Company executed a second amendment to the master lease agreement associated with nine of its leases with HCP to effectively combine the lessees into one master lease and extend the lease terms through October 31, 2018. No other significant changes to the lease agreements occurred in conjunction with the modification in lease terms.
 
On March 8, 2010, the Company announced that Midwest II has entered into an agreement to sell three senior living communities to HCN. Upon closing the transaction, the Company will lease the communities from HCN. The Company currently manages the three communities in the Midwest II joint venture under long-term management agreements.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements and related notes. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience, observance of industry trends and various other sources of information and factors, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and potentially could result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. The Company believes the following critical accounting policies require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Resident and health care revenue is recognized at estimated net realizable amounts, based on historical experiences, due from residents in the period to which the rental and other services are provided.

Table of Contents

Revenues from the Medicare and Medicaid programs accounted for approximately 6% of the Company’s revenue in each of fiscal 2009, 2008, and 2007. Six communities are providers of services under Medicaid programs. Accordingly, the communities are entitled to reimbursement under the foregoing program at established rates that are lower than private pay rates. Patient service revenue for Medicaid patients is recorded at the reimbursement rates as the rates are set prospectively by the state upon the filing of an annual cost report. Two communities are providers of services under the Medicare program and are entitled to payment under the foregoing programs in amounts determined based on rates established by the federal government.
 
Laws and regulations governing the Medicare and Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation. The Company believes that it is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and is not aware of any pending or threatened investigations involving allegations of potential wrongdoing. While no such regulatory inquiries have been made, compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action including fines, penalties, and exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs.
 
Management services revenue is recognized when earned. Management services revenue relates to providing certain management and administrative support services under management contracts, which currently have terms expiring through 2018.
 
Substantially all community fees received from residents are non-refundable and are recorded initially by the Company as deferred revenue. The deferred amounts are amortized over the respective residents’ initial lease term which is consistent with the contractual obligation associated with the estimated stay of the resident.
 
Community reimbursement revenue is comprised of reimbursable expenses from non-consolidated communities that the Company operates under long-term management agreements.
 
Investments in Joint Ventures
 
The Company accounts for its investments in joint ventures under the equity method of accounting. The Company is the general partner in two partnerships and owns member interests in seven other joint ventures. The Company has not consolidated these joint venture interests because the Company has concluded that the limited partners or the other members of each joint venture has substantive kick-out rights or substantive participating rights. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company records its investments in joint ventures at cost and adjusts such investments for its share of earnings and losses of the joint venture.
 
Development Guarantees
 
The Company, on three joint venture developments, has guarantees that the communities will be completed at the budgeted costs approved by the joint venture members. These costs include the hard and soft construction costs and operating costs until the community reaches stabilization. The budgeted costs include contingency reserves for potential costs overruns and other unforeseen costs. In addition, each of these joint ventures has entered into guaranteed fixed price construction contracts with the general contractors on each of the developments. The Company would be required to fund these guarantees if the actual development costs incurred by the joint venture exceed the budgeted costs for the development. The terms of these guarantees generally do not provide for a limitation on the maximum potential future payments. The Company has not made any payments under these guarantees.
 
Assets Held for Sale
 
Assets are classified as held for sale when the Company has committed to selling the asset and believes that it will be disposed of within one year. The Company determines the fair value, net of costs of disposal, of an asset on the date the asset is categorized as held for sale, and the asset is recorded at the lower of its fair value, net of cost of disposal, or carrying value on that date. The Company periodically reevaluates assets held for sale to determine if the assets are still recorded at the lower of fair value, net of cost of disposal, or carrying value. The Company has one parcel of land classified as held for sale at December 31, 2009. The fair value of this property is generally determined based on market rates, industry trends and recent comparable sales transactions. The actual sales price of this asset could differ significantly from the Company’s estimate.

Lease Accounting
 
The Company determines whether to account for its leases as either operating, capital or financing leases depending on the underlying terms of each lease agreement. This determination of classification is complex and requires significant judgment relating to certain information including the estimated fair value and remaining economic life of the community, the Company’s cost of funds, minimum lease payments and other lease terms. As of December 31, 2009, the Company leased 25 communities and classified each of the leases as an operating lease. The Company incurs lease acquisition costs and amortizes these costs over the term of the lease agreement. Certain leases entered into by the Company qualified as sale/leaseback transactions and as such any related gains have been deferred and are being amortized over the lease term.
 
Facility lease expense in the Company’s statement of income includes rent expense plus amortization expense relating to leasehold acquisition costs offset by the amortization of deferred gains.
 
There are various financial covenants and other restrictions in our lease agreements. The Company was in compliance with all of its lease covenants at December 31, 2009.
 
Long-Lived Assets
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are 10 to 40 years for buildings and building improvements, 3 to 10 years for leasehold improvements, 5 to 20 years for land improvements and 5 to 10 years for furniture, equipment and automobiles.
 
At each balance sheet date, the Company reviews the carrying value of its property and equipment to determine if facts and circumstances suggest that they may be impaired or that the depreciation period may need to be changed. The Company considers internal factors such as net operating losses along with external factors relating to each asset, including contract changes, local market developments, and other publicly available information. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flows from such asset is separately identifiable and is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount the carrying value exceeds the fair market value, generally based on discounted cash flows, of the long-lived asset. The Company analyzed certain long-lived assets with operating losses, under the undiscounted cash flow method, for impairment. The Company does not believe there are any material indicators that would require, and the cash flow analysis did not require, an adjustment to the carrying value of the property and equipment or their remaining useful lives as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.
 
Income Taxes
 
At December 31, 2009, the Company had recorded on its consolidated balance sheet deferred tax assets of approximately $9.0 million. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Management regularly evaluates the future realization of deferred tax assets and provides a valuation allowance, if considered necessary, based on such evaluation. The Company has evaluated future expectations of net income and various tax planning strategies that it believes are both prudent and feasible, including various strategies to utilize net built-in gains on the Company’s appreciated assets. However, the benefits of the net deferred tax assets might not be realized if actual results differ from expectations. The Company believes based upon this analysis that the realization of the net deferred tax assets is reasonably assured and therefore has not provided for a valuation allowance.
 
The Company evaluates uncertain tax positions through consideration of accounting and reporting guidance on thresholds, measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition that is intended to provide better financial-statement comparability among different companies. The Company is required to recognize a tax benefit in its financial statements for an uncertain tax position only if management’s assessment is that its position is “more likely than not” (i.e., a greater than 50 percent likelihood) to be upheld on audit based only on the technical merits of the tax position. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense and penalties as income tax expense. The Company is not subject to income tax examinations for tax years prior to 2005.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
 
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105-10 (formerly FASB Statement No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles — a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162”) has become the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The Codification superseded all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards with all other nongrandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification being considered nonauthoritative and was effective for the Company on September 30, 2009.
 
FASB ASC 810-10 (formerly FASB Statement No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)) requires an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. This analysis identifies the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity as the enterprise that has both the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. This guidance also requires ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity and will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2010. It is not currently anticipated that the guidance will have an impact on the Company’s earnings or financial position.
 
The FASB issued guidance addressing (1) practices that have developed since the issuance of FASB ASC 860-10 (formerly FASB Statement No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities”), that are not consistent with the original intent and key requirements of that Statement and (2) concerns of financial statement users that many of the financial assets (and related obligations) that have been derecognized should continue to be reported in the financial statements of transferors. This guidance will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2010, and must be applied to transfers occurring on or after the effective date. It is not currently anticipated that the guidance will have an impact on the Company’s earnings or financial position.
 
FASB ASC 855-10 (formerly FASB Statement No. 165, “Subsequent Events”) establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This disclosure should alert all users of financial statements that an entity has not evaluated subsequent events after that date in the set of financial statements being presented. This guidance introduces the concept of financial statements being available to be issued and requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date and was effective for the Company on September 30, 2009. For additional information, refer to Note 18, “Subsequent Events”, in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
 
FASB ASC 820-10 (formerly FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance does not require any new fair value measurements but would apply to assets and liabilities that are required to be recorded at fair value under other accounting standards. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2008, for its financial assets and liabilities and on January 1, 2009, for its nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s earnings or financial position.
 
FASB ASC 805-10 (formerly FASB Statement No. 141(R) “Business Combinations”) requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize the full fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction (whether a full or partial acquisition); establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed; requires expensing of most transaction and restructuring costs; and requires the acquirer to disclose to investors and other users all of the information needed to evaluate and understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. This guidance applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. As there have not been any acquisitions during fiscal 2009, this guidance has not had an impact on the Company’s earnings or financial position.

Table of Contents

FASB ASC 260-10 (formerly FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities”) clarifies that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and are to be included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method described in FASB ASC 260-10. This guidance was effective for the Company on January 1, 2009, and required all prior-period earnings per share data to be adjusted retrospectively. The Company’s adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the net income per share data reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. For additional information, refer to Note 2, “Net Income Per Share”, in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Revenues
 
Total revenues were $192.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to $193.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, representing a decrease of approximately $1.3 million or 0.7%. This decrease in revenue was primarily the result of a $0.8 million decrease in resident and healthcare revenue, a $2.2 million decrease in affiliated management services revenue, and a $0.1 million decrease in unaffiliated management services revenue offset by an increase in community reimbursement revenue of $1.8 million.
 
  •  Resident and healthcare revenue decreased $0.8 million or 0.5% primarily due to a decrease in average occupancy of 1.4% partially offset by an increase in average revenue collected of 2.2% at the Company’s consolidated communities.
 
  •  The decrease in affiliated management services revenue of $2.2 million or 44.7% primarily resulted from the Company no longer earning development and marketing fees from three joint venture communities that were under development during fiscal 2008.
 
  •  The decrease in unaffiliated management services revenue of $0.1 million primarily resulted from the management of one community owned by a third party during fiscal 2009 compared to two communities owned by third parties during fiscal 2008.
 
  •  Community reimbursement revenue is comprised of reimbursable expenses from non-consolidated communities that the Company operates under long-term management agreements.

Total expenses were $175.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to $176.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, representing a decrease of $0.9 million or 0.5%. This decrease was primarily the result of a $2.5 million decrease in operating expenses, a $1.8 million decrease in general and administrative expenses, and a $0.2 million decrease in bad debt expense, offset by a $1.9 million increase in community reimbursement expense, a $0.8 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, a $0.8 million increase in facility lease expense, and a $0.1 million increase in stock-based compensation.
 
  •  Operating expenses decreased $2.5 million or 2.4% primarily due to a reduction of $2.1 million in independent living expenses, a reduction of $0.3 million in assisted living expenses, and a reduction of $0.3 million in insurance expense offset by an increase in healthcare expenses of $0.1 million. Decreases in independent living expenses primarily consisted of a decrease in labor and benefit costs of $0.7 million, a decrease in food costs of $0.5 million, a decrease in utilities costs of $0.2 million, and a net decrease of $0.7 million in other general independent living operating costs. Assisted living expenses decreased primarily due to a decrease in employee benefit costs. Insurance expense decreased due to an improved claims history which allowed for lower negotiated premium renewals during fiscal 2009. Healthcare expenses increased due to a net increase in other general healthcare operating costs.
 
  •  General and administrative expenses decreased $1.8 million or 13% primarily due to the write-off of accumulated due diligence costs of $0.6 million during fiscal 2008 related to a potential acquisition that the Company terminated and a reduction in corporate compensation of $1.2 million due to the reduction of corporate employees.
 
  •  Depreciation and amortization expense increased $0.8 million primarily as a result of an increase in depreciable assets at the Company’s consolidated communities and leasehold improvements.
 
  •  Facility lease costs increased $0.8 million primarily due to contingent annual rental rate escalations for existing leases.
 
  •  Stock-based compensation increased $0.1 million during fiscal 2009 compared to fiscal 2008 primarily due to the award of additional restricted shares of common stock to certain employees of the Company.

Other income and expense
 
  •  Interest income reflects interest earned on the investment of cash balances and interest earned on escrowed funds. Interest income decreased $0.4 million primarily due to lower interest rates in fiscal 2009 compared to fiscal 2008.
 
  •  Interest expense decreased $0.4 million to $11.8 million in fiscal 2009 compared to $12.2 million in fiscal 2008. This decrease in interest expense primarily resulted from less debt outstanding during fiscal 2009 compared to fiscal 2008.
 
  •  Gain on sale of assets in fiscal 2008 represented gains associated with the sale of two parcels of land of $0.7 million and the amortization of a deferred gain on the sale of the Richmond Heights land in fiscal 2007 to a joint venture in which the Company has an equity interest, offset by a $0.1 million impairment adjustment on a parcel of land, located in Fort Wayne, Indiana, which is classified as held for sale.
 
  •  Other income (expense) in fiscal 2009 and 2008 relates to the Company’s equity in the earnings/losses of unconsolidated affiliates, which represents the Company’s share of the earnings or losses on its investments in joint ventures.
 
Provision for income taxes
 
Provision for income taxes for fiscal 2009 was $2.2 million, or 44.5% of income before taxes, compared to a provision for income taxes of $2.3 million, or 38.3% of income before taxes, for fiscal 2008. The effective tax rates for fiscal 2009 and 2008 differ from the statutory tax rates due to state income taxes and permanent tax differences. The Company is significantly impacted by the Texas Margin Tax and Michigan Business tax, which effectively impose taxes on modified gross revenues for communities within the States of Texas and Michigan. The Company consolidated 17 Texas communities and 2 Michigan communities in fiscal 2009 and the Texas Margin Tax and Michigan Business Tax increased the overall provision for income taxes. Management regularly evaluates the future realization of deferred tax assets and provides a valuation allowance, if considered necessary, based on such evaluation. The Company has evaluated future expectations of net income and various tax planning strategies that it believes are both prudent and feasible, including various strategies to utilize net built-in gains on the Company’s appreciated assets. However, the benefits of the net deferred tax assets might not be realized if actual results differ from expectations. The Company believes, based upon this analysis, that the realization of net deferred tax assets is reasonably assured and therefore has not provided for a valuation allowance.
 
Net income
 
As a result of the foregoing factors, the Company reported net income of $2.8 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, compared to net income of $3.7 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

This increase in revenue is primarily the result of a $4.4 million increase in resident and healthcare revenue and a $1.8 million increase in affiliated management services revenue offset by a decrease in unaffiliated management services revenue of $1.4 million and a $0.6 million decrease in community reimbursement revenue.
 
  •  Resident and healthcare revenue increased $4.4 million or 2.7% from the addition of the Whitley Place community which was leased from HCP on January 31, 2008, combined with an increase in the average monthly rent of 4.0% at the Company’s consolidated communities offset by a decrease in occupancy at the Company’s consolidated communities of 3.4%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
The impact of the current economic environment could result in decreases in the fair value of assets, slowing of transactions, and tightening liquidity and credit markets. These impacts could make securing debt for acquisitions or refinancings for the Company or buyers of the Company’s properties more difficult or on terms not acceptable to the Company.
 
In addition to approximately $29.0 million of unrestricted cash balances on hand as of December 31, 2009, the Company’s principal sources of liquidity are expected to be cash flows from operations, proceeds from the sale of assets, cash flows from SHPIII/CSL Miami, SHPIII/CSL Richmond Heights, SHPIII/CSL Levis Commons, SHPII/CSL, Midwest I and Midwest II and/or additional debt refinancings. The Company expects its available cash and cash flows from operations, proceeds from the sale of assets, and cash flows from SHPIII/CSL Miami, SHPIII/CSL Richmond Heights, SHPIII/CSL Levis Commons, SHPII/CSL, Midwest I and Midwest II to be sufficient to fund its short-term working capital requirements and the Company’s stock repurchase program. The Company’s long-term capital requirements, primarily for acquisitions and other corporate initiatives, could be dependent on its ability to access additional funds through joint ventures and the debt and/or equity markets. The Company from time to time considers and evaluates transactions related to its portfolio including refinancings, purchases and sales, reorganizations and other transactions. There can be no assurance that the Company will continue to generate cash flows at or above current levels or that the Company will be able to obtain the capital necessary to meet the Company’s short and long-term capital requirements.
 
In summary, the Company’s cash flows were as follows (in thousands):

Impact of Inflation
 
To date, inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company. However, inflation could affect the Company’s future revenues and results of operations because of, among other things, the Company’s dependence on senior residents, many of whom rely primarily on fixed incomes to pay for the Company’s services. As a result, during inflationary periods, the Company may not be able to increase resident service fees to account fully for

increased operating expenses. In structuring its fees, the Company attempts to anticipate inflation levels, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to anticipate fully or otherwise respond to any future inflationary pressures.
 
ITEM 7A.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS.
 
The Company’s primary market risk is exposure to changes in interest rates on debt and lease instruments. As of December 31, 2009, the Company had $183.2 million in outstanding debt comprised solely of fixed rate debt instruments. In addition, as of December 31, 2009, the Company had $179.1 million in future facility lease obligations with contingent rent increases based on changes in the consumer price index.
 
Changes in interest rates would affect the fair market value of the Company’s fixed rate debt instruments but would not have an impact on the Company’s earnings or cash flows. Increase in the consumer price index could have an effect on future facility lease expense if the leased community exceeds the contingent rent escalation thresholds set forth in each of the Company’s lease agreements.
 
The following table summarizes information on the Company’s debt instruments outstanding as of December 31, 2009. The table presents the principal due and weighted average interest rates by expected maturity date for the Company’s debt instruments by fiscal year.

Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
 
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Based upon the controls evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
 
Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
 
Management’s Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
Management of the Company, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal controls were designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
 
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment, we believe that, as of December 31, 2009, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.
 
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, as stated in their report which is included as part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Capital Senior Living Corporation
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Capital Senior Living Corporation as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Capital Senior Living Corporation at December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
 
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Capital Senior Living Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 11, 2010, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

CAPITAL SENIOR LIVING CORPORATION
 
December 31, 2009
 
1.   Organization
 
Capital Senior Living Corporation, a Delaware corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), is one of the largest operators of senior living communities in the United States in terms of resident capacity. The Company owns, operates, develops and manages senior living communities throughout the United States. As of December 31, 2009, the Company operated 66 senior living communities in 23 states with an aggregate capacity of approximately 10,200 residents, including 40 senior living communities which the Company either owned or in which the Company had an ownership interest, 25 senior living communities that the Company leased and one senior living community it managed for a third party. As of December 31, 2009, the Company also operated one home care agency. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Capital Senior Living Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company accounts for significant investments in unconsolidated companies, in which the Company has significant influence, using the equity method of accounting.
 
2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. The Company has deposits in banks that exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. Management believes that credit risk related to these deposits is minimal. Restricted cash consists of a deposit required by a certain lender as collateral pursuant to a letter of credit. The deposit must remain so long as the letter of credit is outstanding which is subject to renewal annually.
 
Long-Lived Assets
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. At each balance sheet date, the Company reviews the carrying value of its property and equipment to determine if facts and circumstances suggest that they may be impaired or that the depreciation period may need to be changed. The Company considers internal factors such as net operating losses along with external factors relating to each asset, including contract changes, local market developments, and other publicly available information. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flows from such asset is separately identifiable and is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount the carrying value exceeds the fair market value, generally based on discounted cash flows, of the long-lived asset. The Company analyzed certain long-lived assets with operating losses, under the undiscounted cash flow method, for impairment. Based on this analysis, the Company does not believe there are any indicators that would require an adjustment to the carrying value of the property and equipment or their remaining useful lives as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.
 
Assets Held for Sale
 
Assets are classified as held for sale when the Company has committed to selling the asset and believes that it will be disposed of within one year. The Company determines the fair value, net of costs of disposal, of an asset on the date the asset is categorized as held for sale, and the asset is recorded at the lower of its fair value, net of cost of disposal, or carrying value on that date. The Company periodically reevaluates assets held for sale to determine if the assets are still recorded at the lower of fair value, net of cost of disposal, or carrying value. The fair values of properties are generally determined based on market rates, industry trends and recent comparable sales transactions. The actual sales price of these assets could differ significantly from the Company’s estimates. The Company had one parcel of land, in Fort Wayne, Indiana, held for sale at December 31, 2009.

CAPITAL SENIOR LIVING CORPORATION
 
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
 
In March 2007, the Company sold one parcel of land located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana that had been classified as held for sale. The land parcel sold for $0.5 million, net of closing costs, resulting in a gain on sale of approximately $0.1 million.
 
In May 2007, the Company sold one parcel of land located in Miami Township, Ohio that had been classified as held for sale to a joint venture (“SHPIII/CSL Miami”), which is owned 90% by Senior Housing Partners III LP (“SHPIII”), a fund owned by Prudential Real Estate Investors (“Prudential”), and 10% by the Company, for $0.6 million, resulting in a loss on sale of approximately $3,000. In addition, during the second quarter of fiscal 2007, management reclassified a parcel of land in Carmichael, California to held for sale. The Company estimated on the date of reclassification that the fair value of the land parcel, net of selling expenses, exceeded its carrying value of $0.5 million. In February 2008, the Company sold the parcel of land located in Carmichael, California for $1.2 million, net of closing costs, resulting in a gain on sale of approximately $0.7 million.
 
In November 2007, the Company sold one parcel of land located in Richmond Heights, Ohio that had been classified as held for sale to a joint venture (“SHPIII/CSL Richmond Heights”), which is owned 90% by SHPIII and 10% by the Company, for $0.8 million resulting in a gain on sale of approximately $0.3 million, which has been deferred and will be recognized into income over the period required to stabilize the senior living community.
 
The parcel of land held for sale in Fort Wayne, Indiana, with a carrying amount of $0.5 million was written down approximately $0.1 million to its fair value, less costs to sell, to $0.4 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2008. The Company currently estimates that this parcel of land held for sale has an aggregate fair value, net of costs of disposal, that exceeds its carrying value of $0.4 million at December 31, 2009. The amount that the Company will ultimately realize on the parcel of land could differ materially from this estimate.
 
Investments in Joint Ventures
 
The Company accounts for its investments in joint ventures under the equity method of accounting. The Company is the general partner in two partnerships and owns member interests in seven other joint ventures. The Company has not consolidated these joint venture interests because the Company has concluded that the limited partners or the other members of each joint venture has substantive kick-out rights or substantive participating rights. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company records its investments in joint ventures at cost and adjusts such investments for its share of earnings and losses of the joint ventures.
 
Development Guarantees
 
The Company, on three joint venture developments, has guarantees that the communities will be completed at the budgeted costs approved by the joint venture members. These costs include the hard and soft construction costs and operating costs until the community reaches stabilization. The budgeted costs include contingency reserves for potential costs overruns and other unforeseen costs. In addition, each of these joint ventures has entered into guaranteed fixed price construction contracts with the general contractors on each of the developments. The Company would be required to fund these guarantees if the actual development costs incurred by the joint venture exceed the budgeted costs for the development. The terms of these guarantees generally do not provide for a limitation on the maximum potential future payments. The Company has not made any payments under these guarantees.
 
Income Taxes
 
At December 31, 2009, the Company had recorded on its consolidated balance sheet net deferred tax assets of $9.0 million. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Management regularly evaluates the future realization of deferred tax assets and provides a valuation allowance, if considered necessary, based on such evaluation. As part of that evaluation, management has evaluated future

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
 
expectations of net income. However, the benefits of the net deferred tax assets might not be realized if actual results differ from expectations. The Company believes that based upon this analysis that the realization of the net deferred tax assets is reasonably assured and therefore has not provided for a valuation allowance.
 
The Company evaluates uncertain tax positions through consideration of accounting and reporting guidance on thresholds, measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition that is intended to provide better financial-statement comparability among different companies. The Company is required to recognize a tax benefit in its financial statements for an uncertain tax position only if management’s assessment is that its position is “more likely than not” (i.e., a greater than 50 percent likelihood) to be upheld on audit based only on the technical merits of the tax position. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense and penalties as income tax expense. The Company is not subject to income tax examinations for tax years prior to 2005.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Resident and health care revenue is recognized at estimated net realizable amounts, based on historical experiences, due from residents in the period in which the rental and other services are provided.
 
Revenues from the Medicare and Medicaid programs accounted for approximately 6% of the Company’s revenue in each of fiscal 2009, 2008, and 2007. Fourteen communities are providers of services under the Medicaid program. Accordingly, the communities are entitled to reimbursement under the foregoing program at established rates that are lower than private pay rates. Patient service revenue for Medicaid patients is recorded at the reimbursement rates as the rates are set prospectively by the state upon the filing of an annual cost report. Two communities are providers of services under the Medicare program and are entitled to payment under the foregoing programs in amounts determined based upon rates established by the federal government.
 
Laws and regulations governing the Medicare and Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation. The Company believes that it is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and is not aware of any pending or threatened investigations involving allegations of potential wrongdoing. While no such regulatory inquiries have been made, compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action including fines, penalties, and exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs.
 
Management services revenue is recognized when earned. Management services revenue relates to providing certain management and administrative support services under management contracts, which have terms expiring through 2018.
 
Substantially all community fees received from residents are non-refundable and are recorded initially by the Company as deferred revenue. The deferred amounts are amortized over the respective residents’ initial lease term which is consistent with the contractual obligation associated with the estimated stay of the resident.
 
Community reimbursement revenue is comprised of reimbursable expenses from non-consolidated communities that the Company operates under long-term management agreements.
 
Lease Accounting
 
The Company determines whether to account for its leases as operating, capital or financing leases depending on the underlying terms of the lease agreement. This determination of classification is complex and requires significant judgment relating to certain information including the estimated fair value and remaining economic life of the community, the Company’s cost of funds, minimum lease payments and other lease terms. As of December 31, 2009, the Company leased 25 communities and classified each of the leases as an operating lease. The Company incurs lease acquisition costs and amortizes these costs over the term of the lease agreement. Certain

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
 
leases entered into by the Company qualified as sale/leaseback transactions and as such any related gains have been deferred and are being amortized over the lease term.
 
Facility lease expense in the Company’s statement of income includes rent expense plus amortization expense relating to leasehold acquisition costs offset by the amortization of deferred gains.
 
There are various financial covenants and other restrictions in the Company’s lease agreements. The Company was in compliance with all of its lease covenants at December 31, 2009.
 
Financial Instruments
 
Effective January 31, 2005, the Company entered into interest rate cap agreements with two commercial banks to reduce the impact of increases in interest rates on the Company’s variable rate loans. One interest rate cap agreement effectively limited the interest rate exposure on $100 million notional amount to a maximum London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) of 5%, as long as one-month LIBOR was less than 7%. If one-month LIBOR was greater than 7%, the agreement effectively limited the interest rate on the same $100 million notional amount to a maximum LIBOR of 7%. In March 2006, the Company sold $67 million of the notional amount of this interest rate cap and as a result received $0.3 million in cash and recorded a gain on sale of $0.1 million. The remaining balance of the interest rate cap was sold in May 2007, resulting in net proceeds of $0.1 million and a gain on sale of approximately $28,000. During fiscal 2007, the Company received $37,000 under the terms of this interest rate cap agreement and recorded the amount received as a reduction in interest expense. The second interest cap agreement effectively limited the interest rate exposure on a $50 million notional amount to a maximum LIBOR of 5% and expired on January 31, 2006. The Company paid $0.4 million for the interest rate caps and the costs of these agreements were being amortized to interest expense over the life of the agreements.
 
Credit Risk
 
The Company’s resident receivables are generally due within 30 days. Credit losses on resident receivables have historically been within management’s estimates, and management believes that the allowance for doubtful accounts adequately provides for expected losses.
 
Advertising
 
Advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007 were $5.6 million, $5.9 million, and $6.0 million, respectively.
 
Net Income Per Share
 
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income remaining after allocation to unvested restricted shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Except when the effect would be anti-dilutive, the calculation of diluted net income per common share includes the net impact of unvested restricted shares and shares that could be issued under outstanding stock options.

Awards of unvested restricted stock representing approximately 0.6 million, 0.3 million, and 0.3 million shares were outstanding for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively, and were included in the computation of allocable net income.
 
Awards of unvested restricted stock representing approximately 48 and 103 incremental shares were not removed from the effects of dilutive securities in the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, as the effects did not materially impact previously reported diluted income per share.
 
Treasury Stock
 
The Company accounts for treasury stock under the cost method and includes treasury stock as a component of stockholders’ equity.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company recognizes compensation expense for share-based payment awards to employees, including grants of employee stock options and awards of restricted stock, in the statement of income based on their fair values.
 
On May 8, 2007, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2007 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan for Capital Senior Living Corporation (the “2007 Plan”) which provides for, among other things, the grant of restricted stock awards and stock options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. The 2007 Plan authorizes the Company to issue up to 2.6 million shares of common stock and the Company has reserved 2.5 million shares of common stock for future issuance pursuant to awards under the 2007 Plan. Effective May 8, 2007, the 1997 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan (as amended, the “1997 Plan”) was terminated and no additional shares will be granted under the 1997 Plan. The Company has reserved 0.9 million shares of common stock for future issuance upon the exercise of outstanding stock options pursuant to the 1997 Plan.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
 
FASB ASC 105-10 (formerly FASB Statement No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles — a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162”) has become the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the


F-11


Table of Contents

 
CAPITAL SENIOR LIVING CORPORATION
 
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
 
FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The Codification superseded all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards with all other nongrandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification being considered nonauthoritative and was effective for the Company on September 30, 2009.
 
FASB ASC 810-10 (formerly FASB Statement No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)) requires an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. This analysis identifies the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity as the enterprise that has both the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. This guidance also requires ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity and will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2010. It is not currently anticipated that the guidance will have an impact on the Company’s earnings or financial position.
 
The FASB issued guidance addressing (1) practices that have developed since the issuance of FASB ASC 860-10 (formerly FASB Statement No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities”), that are not consistent with the original intent and key requirements of that Statement and (2) concerns of financial statement users that many of the financial assets (and related obligations) that have been derecognized should continue to be reported in the financial statements of transferors. This guidance will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2010, and must be applied to transfers occurring on or after the effective date. It is not currently anticipated that the guidance will have an impact on the Company’s earnings or financial position.
 
FASB ASC 855-10 (formerly FASB Statement No. 165, “Subsequent Events”) establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This disclosure should alert all users of financial statements that an entity has not evaluated subsequent events after that date in the set of financial statements being presented. This guidance introduces the concept of financial statements being available to be issued and requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date and was effective for the Company on September 30, 2009. For additional information, refer to Note 18, “Subsequent Events.”
 
FASB ASC 820-10 (formerly FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance does not require any new fair value measurements but would apply to assets and liabilities that are required to be recorded at fair value under other accounting standards. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2008, for its financial assets and liabilities and on January 1, 2009, for its nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s earnings or financial position.
 
FASB ASC 805-10 (formerly FASB Statement No. 141(R) “Business Combinations”) requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize the full fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction (whether a full or partial acquisition); establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed; requires expensing of most transaction and restructuring costs; and requires the acquirer to disclose to investors and other users all of the information needed to evaluate and understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. This guidance applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. As there have not been any acquisitions during fiscal 2009, this guidance has not had an impact on the Company’s earnings or financial position.

clarifies that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and are to be included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method described in FASB ASC 260-10. This guidance was effective for the Company on January 1, 2009, and required all prior-period earnings per share data to be adjusted retrospectively. The Company’s adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the net income per share data reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. For additional information, refer to Note 2, “Net Income Per Share.”
 
Segment Information
 
The Company evaluates the performance and allocates resources of its senior living facilities based on current operations and market assessments on a property-by-property basis. The Company does not have a concentration of operations geographically or by product or service as its management functions are integrated at the property level. As such, the Company operates in one segment.
 
Use of Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements and related footnotes. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience, observance of industry trends and various other sources of information and factors, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and potentially could result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. The Company believes revenue recognition, investments in limited partnerships, leases, long-lived assets, income taxes and assets held for sale are its most critical accounting policies and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments.

Midwest I
 
In January 2006, the Company announced the formation of Midwest Portfolio Holdings, L.P., (“Midwest I”) with GE Healthcare Financial Services (“GE Healthcare”) to acquire five senior housing communities from a third party.

The Company manages the five acquired communities under long-term management agreements with Midwest I. The Company accounts for its investment in Midwest I under the equity method of accounting and the Company recognized earnings in the equity of Midwest I of $0.2 million in both fiscal 2009 and 2008 and $8,000 in fiscal 2007.

The final purchase price allocation resulted in more of the purchase price being allocated to assets with shorter economic lives, which resulted in additional depreciation and amortization expense. On January 4, 2010, the Company announced that Midwest I entered into an agreement to sell the Midwest I subsidiaries that own the five senior living communities to Heath Care REIT, Inc. (“HCN”). As a condition to closing of the sale to HCN, the Company will enter into long term leases of the communities.

On October 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company renewed certain insurance policies and entered into finance agreements totaling $0.5 million. The finance agreements have fixed interest rates of 3.66% and 4.78%, respectively, with principal being repaid over 10-month terms.
 
On May 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company renewed certain insurance policies and entered into finance agreements totaling $1.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The finance agreements have fixed interest rates of 3.66% and 3.75%, respectively, with principal being repaid over 10-month terms.
 
On December 1, 2008, the Company renewed certain insurance policies and entered into a finance agreement totaling $2.7 million. The finance agreement has a fixed interest rate of 4.78% with principal being repaid over a 10-month term.
 
The Company’s second installment on its note payable to Covenant, which was due on August 15, 2007, was reduced by $0.4 million pursuant to the terms of the stock purchase agreement, resulting in no amount due to Covenant and a reduction in the Company’s note payable to Covenant of approximately $0.3 million, which was reflected as management services revenue in the Company’s consolidated statement of income. In addition, under the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company had the right to recapture certain contingent payments made to Covenant if the Company did not receive the required minimum management services revenue set forth in the stock purchase agreement. As a result of these provisions, during the third quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company recorded a receivable and management services revenue of approximately $0.4 million. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, Covenant paid this receivable and executed an amendment to the stock purchase agreement releasing the Company from any future obligations under the Company’s note payable to Covenant. As a result the Company recognized additional management services revenue of approximately $0.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007.
 
On May 3, 2007, the Company refinanced $30.0 million of mortgage debt on four senior living communities with Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”). As part of the refinancing, the Company repaid approximately $2.7 million of mortgage debt on the four communities. The new mortgage loans have a ten-year term with interest fixed at 5.91% and principal amortized over a 30-year term. The Company incurred $0.5 million in deferred financing costs related to this loan, which is being amortized over ten years. In addition, as part of this refinancing, the Company wrote-off $0.4 million in deferred loan costs.
 
On March 21, 2007, the Company refinanced $9.5 million of mortgage debt on one of its senior living communities (“Gramercy Hill”) with Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”). As part of the refinancing, the Company received approximately $2.1 million in cash proceeds, net of closing costs. The new mortgage loan has a ten-year term with a one-year extension available at the Company’s option, interest fixed at 5.75% and requires interest only payments in the first two years with principal amortized thereafter over a 25-year term. The Company incurred $0.2 million in deferred financing costs related to this loan, which is being amortized over ten years. In addition, as part of this refinancing, the Company wrote-off $13,000 in deferred loan costs and paid $0.2 million in loan exit fees to the prior lender. The loan exit fees are a component of write-off of deferred loan costs in the accompanying statement of income.
 
On March 15, 2007, the Company issued three standby letters of credit, totaling $2.2 million, for the benefit of HCP on certain leases between HCP and the Company. The fees on the letters of credit are based on 2.0% of the issued amount.
 
On June 9, 2006, the Company refinanced $110.0 million of mortgage debt on 15 senior living communities with Freddie Mac. As part of the refinancing, the Company repaid approximately $14.8 million of mortgage debt on the 15 communities. The new mortgage loans each have a ten-year term with interest rates fixed at 6.29% for the first nine years and with principal amortized over a 25-year term. At the beginning of the tenth year, the loans will convert to a floating interest rate to provide flexibility regarding financing alternatives. The loans are cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with release provisions. The Company incurred $1.9 million in deferred financing costs related to these loans, which is being amortized over ten years. In addition, the Company

wrote-off $0.8 million in deferred loan costs on the loans refinanced and paid $0.2 million in loan exit fees to the prior lender.
 
Effective January 31, 2005, the Company entered into interest rate cap agreements with two commercial banks to reduce the impact of increases in interest rates on the Company’s variable rate loans. One interest rate cap agreement effectively limited the interest rate exposure on $100 million notional amount to a maximum LIBOR of 5%, as long as one-month LIBOR was less than 7%. If one-month LIBOR was greater than 7%, the agreement effectively limited the interest rate on the same $100 million notional amount to a maximum LIBOR of 7%. In March 2006, the Company sold $67 million of the notional amount of this interest rate cap and as a result received $0.3 million in cash and recorded a gain on sale of $0.1 million. The remaining balance of the interest rate cap was sold in May 2007, resulting in net proceeds of $0.1 million and a gain on sale of approximately $28,000. During fiscal 2007, the Company received $37,000 under the terms of this interest rate cap agreement and recorded the amount received as a reduction in interest expense. The second interest cap agreement effectively limited the interest rate exposure on a $50 million notional amount to a maximum LIBOR of 5% and expired on January 31, 2006. The Company paid $0.4 million for the interest rate caps and the costs of these agreements were being amortized to interest expense over the life of the agreements.
 
In connection with the Company’s loan commitments described above, the Company incurred financing charges that were deferred and amortized over the life of the notes. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company had gross deferred loan costs of $3.3 million and $3.4 million, respectively. Accumulated amortization was $1.2 million and $0.9 million at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Amortization expense is expected to be $0.3 million in each of fiscal 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014. In connection with the refinancings and the repayment of notes, the Company wrote-off $0.5 million in deferred loan costs in fiscal 2007.
 
The Company must maintain certain levels of tangible net worth and comply with other restrictive covenants under the terms of the notes. The Company is currently in the process of renegotiating the loan agreement for a promissory note held by a Lehman securitized trust (“securitized promissory note”). The securitized promissory note is a debt obligation of one of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries and matured on September 1, 2009, which currently carries an outstanding balance of $4.6 million and is collateralized with the assets of the subsidiary which is nonrecourse to the Company. Although the securitized promissory note is past its maturity date, the Company currently is in negotiations with the lender, including discussions for a negotiated pay-off settlement as well as other possible remedies. However, scheduled monthly mortgage interest payments have continued to be made through February 28, 2010, by the Company’s subsidiary to the securitized promissory note servicer.
 
With the exception of the aforementioned securitized promissory note, the Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants at December 31, 2009.

Share Repurchases
 
On January 22, 2009, the Company’s board of directors approved a share repurchase program that authorized the Company to purchase up to $10.0 million of the Company’s common stock. Purchases may be made from time to time using a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or block trades, or by any combination of such methods, in accordance with applicable insider trading and other

securities laws and regulations. The size, scope and timing of any purchases will be based on business, market and other conditions and factors, including price, regulatory and contractual requirements or consents, and capital availability. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and the share repurchase authorization has no stated expiration date. Shares of stock repurchased under the program will be held as treasury shares. Pursuant to this authorization, during fiscal 2009, the Company purchased 349,800 shares at an average cost of $2.67 per share for a total cost to the Company of approximately $0.9 million. All such purchases were made in open market transactions.

The restricted stock outstanding at December 31, 2009 and 2008, had an intrinsic value of $3.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively.
 
During fiscal 2009, the Company awarded 561,625 shares of restricted common stock to certain employees of the Company. The average market value of the common stock on the date of grant was $3.20. These awards of restricted shares vest over a three-year period and had an intrinsic value of $1.8 million on the date of issue.
 
Stock Based Compensation
 
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the grant date fair value of its stock options and restricted stock awards. The Black-Scholes model requires the input of certain assumptions including expected volatility, expected dividend yield, expected life of the option and the risk free interest rate. The expected


F-22

CAPITAL SENIOR LIVING CORPORATION
 
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
 
volatility used by the Company is based primarily on an analysis of historical prices of the Company’s common stock. The expected term of options granted is based primarily on historical exercise patterns on the Company’s outstanding stock options. The risk free rate is based on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury yields in effect at the date of grant with the same period as the expected option life. The Company does not expect to pay dividends on its common stock and therefore has used a dividend yield of zero in determining the fair value of its awards. The option forfeiture rate assumption used by the Company, which affects the expense recognized as opposed to the fair value of the award, is based primarily on the Company’s historical option forfeiture patterns.
 
The Company has total stock-based compensation expense of $1.7 million not recognized as of December 31, 2009, and expects this expense to be recognized over approximately a three-year period.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Management regularly evaluates the future realization of deferred tax assets and provides a valuation allowance, if considered necessary, based on such evaluation. The Company has evaluated future expectations of net income and various tax planning strategies that it believes are both prudent and feasible, including various strategies to utilize net built-in gains on the Company’s appreciated assets. However, the benefits of the net deferred tax assets might not be realized if actual results differ from expectations. The Company believes, based upon this analysis, that the realization of net deferred tax assets is reasonably assured and therefore has not provided for a valuation allowance
 
As of December 31, 2009, the Company has federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of $1.5 million and $24.9 million, respectively, and related deferred tax assets of $0.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively.
 
The Company is generally no longer subject to federal and state tax audits for years before 2005.
 
12.   Employee Benefit Plans
 
The Company has a 401(k) salary deferral plan (the “Plan”) in which all employees of the Company meeting minimum service and age requirements are eligible to participate. Contributions to the Plan are in the form of employee salary deferrals, which are subject to employer matching contributions of up to 2% of the employee’s annual salary. The Company’s contributions are funded semi-monthly to the Plan administrator. Matching contributions of $0.4 million were contributed to the Plan annually in fiscal 2009, 2008, and 2007. The Company incurred administrative expenses related to the Plan of $13,100, $12,400, and $10,800 in fiscal 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively.

13.   Contingencies
 
The Company has claims incurred in the normal course of its business. Most of these claims are believed by management to be covered by insurance, subject to normal reservations of rights by the insurance companies and possibly subject to certain exclusions in the applicable insurance policies. Whether or not covered by insurance, these claims, in the opinion of management, based on advice of legal counsel, should not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company if determined adversely to the Company.
 
14.   Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying amounts and fair values of financial instruments at December 31, 2009 and 2008 are as follows (in thousands):

Notes payable
    183,169       170,393       189,567       182,378  
 
The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
 
Cash and cash equivalents and Restricted cash:  The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximate fair value.
 
Notes payable:  The fair value of notes payable is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
 
The global markets have experienced disruption in the credit markets. The full extent of these disruptions will have on the market and the ultimate severity and length is not predictable. Therefore, the estimated fair value of these assets and liabilities could be affected by these market changes and this effect could be material.

On March 4, 2010, the Company executed a second amendment to its master lease agreement associated with nine of its leases with HCP to effectively combine the lessees into one master lease and extend the lease terms through October 31, 2018. No other significant changes to the lease agreements occurred in conjunction with the modification in lease terms.
 
On March 8, 2010, the Company announced that Midwest II has entered into an agreement to sell three senior living communities to HCN. Upon closing the transaction, the Company will lease the communities from HCN.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Capital Senior Living Corporation
 
We have audited Capital Senior Living Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). Capital Senior Living Corporation’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
In our opinion, Capital Senior Living Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on the COSO criteria.
 
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Capital Senior Living Corporation as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009, and our report dated March 11, 2010, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
