MEDICAL PROPERTIES TRUST, INC., AND MPT OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P.

AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Organization

Medical Properties Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was formed on August 27, 2003, under the Maryland General Corporation Law for the purpose of engaging in the business of investing in, owning, and leasing commercial real estate. Our operating partnership subsidiary, MPT Operating Partnership, L.P., (the “Operating Partnership”) through which we conduct all of our operations, was formed in September 2003. Through another wholly-owned subsidiary, Medical Properties Trust, LLC, we are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. At present, we directly own substantially all of the limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership and have elected to report our required disclosures and that of the Operating Partnership on a combined basis except where material differences exist.

We have operated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) since April 6, 2004, and accordingly, elected REIT status upon the filing in September 2005 of the calendar year 2004 federal income tax return. Accordingly, we will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, provided that we continue to qualify as a REIT and our distributions to our stockholders equal or exceed our taxable income. Certain activities we undertake must be conducted by entities which we elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”). Our TRSs are subject to both U.S. federal and state income taxes. For our properties located outside the United States, we are subject to local taxes; however, we do not expect to incur additional taxes in the United States as such income will flow through our REIT.

Our primary business strategy is to acquire and develop real estate and improvements, primarily for long-term lease to providers of healthcare services such as operators of general acute care hospitals, inpatient physical rehabilitation hospitals, long-term acute care hospitals, surgery centers, centers for treatment of specific conditions such as cardiac, pulmonary, cancer, and neurological hospitals, and other healthcare-oriented facilities. We also make mortgage and other loans to operators of similar facilities. In addition, we may obtain profits or equity interests in our tenants, from time to time, in order to enhance our overall return. We manage our business as a single business segment. All of our properties are located in the United States and Europe.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements: The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information, including rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.

For information about significant accounting policies, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, there were no material changes to these policies.

Recent Accounting Developments:

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” Under the new standard, revenue is recognized at the time a good or service is transferred to a customer for the amount of consideration received for that specific good or service. Entities may use a full retrospective approach or report the cumulative effect as of the date of adoption. On April 1, 2015, the FASB proposed deferring the effective date of this standard by one year to December 15, 2017, for annual reporting periods beginning after that date. The FASB also proposed permitting early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date of December 15, 2016. We do not expect this standard to have a significant impact on our financial results, as a substantial portion of our revenue consists of rental income from leasing arrangements, which are specifically excluded from ASU No. 2014-09.

 

11


Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” This standard amends existing guidance to require the presentation of debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of a deferred charge. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, but early adoption is permitted.

Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02 that modifies the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are VIEs, eliminates the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership and affects the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs, particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships. We do not believe this proposed standard will have a significant impact on us. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, but early adoption is permitted.

Variable Interest Entities

At September 30, 2015, we had loans to and/or equity investments in certain variable interest entities (“VIEs”), which are also tenants of our facilities, including Ernest Health, Inc. (“Ernest”) and Capella Holdings, Inc. (“Capella”). We have determined that we are not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. The carrying value and classification of the related assets and maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with these VIEs are presented below at September 30, 2015 (in thousands):

 

VIE Type

   Maximum Loss
Exposure(1)
     Asset Type
Classification
   Carrying
Amount(2)
 

Loans, net

   $ 988,497       Mortgage and other loans    $ 923,885   

Equity investments

   $ 54,353       Other assets    $ 6,297   

 

(1) Our maximum loss exposure related to loans with VIEs represents our current aggregate gross carrying value of the loan plus accrued interest and any other related assets (such as rent receivables), less any liabilities. Our maximum loss exposure related to our equity investment in VIEs represents the current carrying values of such investment plus any other related assets (such as rent receivables) less any liabilities.
(2) Carrying amount reflects the net book value of our loan or equity interest only in the VIE.

For the VIE types above, we do not consolidate the VIE because we do not have the ability to control the activities (such as the day-to-day healthcare operations of our borrower or investees) that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. As of September 30, 2015, we were not required to provide any material financial support through a liquidity arrangement or otherwise to our unconsolidated VIEs, including circumstances in which it could be exposed to further losses (e.g., cash short falls).

Typically, our loans are collateralized by assets of the borrower (some assets of which are on the premises of facilities owned by us) and further supported by limited guarantees made by certain principals of the borrower.

See Note 3 for additional description of the nature, purpose and activities of our more significant VIEs and interests therein.

3. Real Estate and Lending Activities

Acquisitions

2015 Activity

Acquisition of Capella Healthcare Hospital Portfolio

On August 31, 2015, we closed on our acquisition of Capella. Our investment in the portfolio includes seven acute care hospitals (two properties of which our investment is in the form of mortgage loans), an acquisition loan, and an equity interest in the operator for a combined purchase price and investment of approximately $900 million plus Capella’s cash on hand at acquisition date. The real estate leases and mortgage loans have 15-year terms with four 5-year extension options, plus consumer price-indexed increases, limited to a 2% floor and a 4% ceiling annually. We have closed on six of the seven Capella properties and expect to close on the last property in the fourth quarter of 2015. The remaining investment in the operations of Capella are in the form of an acquisition loan to Capella, which has a fixed interest rate of 8%, and we have a 49% interest in the equity of the operator, with management owning the remaining 51%.

 

12


MEDIAN Transaction Update

On April 29, 2015, we entered into a series of definitive agreements with Median Kliniken S.à r.l., (“MEDIAN”), a German provider of post-acute and acute rehabilitation services, to acquire the real estate assets of 32 hospitals owned by MEDIAN for an aggregate purchase price of approximately €688 million. Upon acquisition, each property became subject to a master lease between us and MEDIAN providing for the leaseback of the property to MEDIAN. The master lease has an initial term of 27 years and provides for an initial GAAP lease rate of 9.3%, with annual escalators at the greater of one percent or 70% of the German consumer price index.

MEDIAN is owned by an affiliate of Waterland Private Equity Fund V C.V. (“Waterland”), which acquired 94.9% of the outstanding equity interests in MEDIAN, and by a subsidiary of our operating partnership, which acquired the remaining 5.1% of the outstanding equity interests in MEDIAN, each in December 2014. In December 2014, we provided interim acquisition loans to affiliates of Waterland and MEDIAN in connection with Waterland’s acquisition of its stake in MEDIAN in an aggregate amount of approximately €425 million. In addition, we made further loans to MEDIAN during the first half of 2015 in an aggregate amount of approximately €240 million, which were used by MEDIAN to repay existing debt on properties we have acquired or expect to acquire.

Closing of the sale-leaseback transactions, which began in the second quarter of 2015, is subject to customary real estate, regulatory and other closing conditions, including waiver of any statutory pre-emption rights by local municipalities and antitrust clearance. At each closing, the purchase price for each facility has been reduced and offset against the interim loans made to affiliates of Waterland and MEDIAN as described above and against the amount of any debt assumed or repaid by us in connection with the closing. As of September 30, 2015, we have closed on 30 properties for an aggregate amount of €627 million. At September 30, 2015, we had loans outstanding to MEDIAN and Waterland for an aggregate amount of approximately €37 million. These loans were repaid by MEDIAN and Waterland in October 2015.

Other Acquisitions

On September 30, 2015, we provided a $100 million mortgage financing (of which $85 million has been funded to-date) to Prime Healthcare Services (“Prime”) for three general acute care hospitals and one free-standing emergency department and health center in New Jersey. The loan has a five-year term and provides for consumer-priced indexed interest increases, subject to a floor. We expect to purchase these facilities in the 2015 fourth quarter and will reduce the outstanding mortgage loan accordingly at that time.

On September 9, 2015, we acquired the real estate of a general acute care hospital under development located in Valencia, Spain The acquisition was effected through a newly-formed joint venture between us and clients of AXA Real Estate, in which we will own a 50% interest. Our expected share of the aggregate purchase and development price is €21.4 million. Upon completion, the facility will be leased to a Spanish operator of acute care hospitals, pursuant to a long-term lease.

On August 31, 2015, we closed on a $30 million mortgage loan transaction with Prime for the acquisition of Lake Huron Medical Center, a 144-bed general acute care hospital located in Port Huron, Michigan. The mortgage loan has a 5-year term with conversion rights to our standard sale leaseback agreement. The loan provides for consumer-priced indexed interest increases, subject to a floor.

On June 16, 2015, we acquired the real estate of two facilities in Lubbock, Texas, a 60-bed inpatient rehabilitation hospital and a 37-bed long term acute care hospital, for an aggregate purchase price of $31.5 million. We entered into a 20-year lease with Ernest for the rehabilitation hospital, which provides for three five-year extension options, and separately entered into a lease with Ernest for the long-term acute care hospital that has a final term ending December 31, 2034. In connection with the transaction, we funded an acquisition loan to Ernest of approximately $12.0 million. Ernest will operate the rehabilitation hospital in a joint venture with Covenant Health System, while the long term acute care hospital will continue to be operated by Fundamental Health under a new sublease with Ernest.

On February 27, 2015, we acquired an inpatient rehabilitation hospital in Weslaco, Texas for $10.7 million leased to Ernest pursuant to the 2012 master lease which has a remaining 17-year fixed term and three five year extension options. This lease provides for consumer-priced-indexed annual rent increases, subject to a floor and a cap. In addition we agreed to fund an acquisition loan in the amount of $5 million.

 

13


On February 13, 2015, we acquired two general acute care hospitals in the Kansas City area for $110 million. Prime is the tenant and operator pursuant to a new master lease that has similar terms and security enhancements as the other master lease agreements entered into in 2013. This master lease has a 10 year initial fixed term with two extension options of five years each. The lease provides for consumer-price-indexed annual rent increases, subject to a specified floor. In addition, we agreed to fund a mortgage loan in the amount of $40 million, which has a 10-year term.

2014 Activity

On September 19, 2014, we acquired an acute care hospital in Fairmont, West Virginia for an aggregate purchase price of $15 million from Alecto Healthcare Services. The facility was simultaneously leased back to the seller under a 15-year initial term with three five-year extension options. In addition, we made a $5 million working capital loan to the tenant with a five year term and a commitment to fund up to $5 million in capital improvements.

On July 1, 2014, we acquired an acute care hospital in Peasedown St. John, United Kingdom from Circle Health Ltd., through its subsidiary Circle Hospital (Bath) Ltd. The sale/leaseback transaction, excluding any transfer taxes, is valued at approximately £28.3 million (approximately $48.0 million at that time). The lease has an initial term of 15-years with a tenant option to extend the lease for an additional 15 years. The lease includes annual rent increases, which will equal the year-over-year change in the retail price index with a floor of 2% and a cap of 5%. With the transaction, we incurred approximately £1.1 million (approximately $1.9 million at that time) of transfer and other taxes that have been expensed as acquisition costs.

On March 31, 2014, we acquired a general acute care hospital and an adjacent parcel of land for an aggregate purchase price of $115 million from a joint venture of LHP Hospital Group, Inc. and Hackensack University Medical Center Mountainside. The facility was simultaneously leased back to the seller under a lease with a 15-year initial term with a 3-year extension option, followed by a further 12-year extension option at fair market value. The lease provides for consumer price-indexed annual rent increases, subject to a specified floor and ceiling. The lease includes a customary right of first refusal with respect to a future sale of the facility.

As part of these acquisitions, we acquired the following assets:

When all relevant information is obtained, resulting changes, if any, to our provisional purchase price allocation will be adjusted to reflect new information obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the respective acquisition dates that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of those dates.

 

14

Development Activities

During the first nine months of 2015, we completed construction and began recording rental income on the following facilities:

 

    First Choice ER (a subsidiary of Adeptus Health) – We completed thirteen acute care facilities for this tenant during 2015. Eleven of these facilities are leased pursuant to the master lease entered into in 2014 and are cross-defaulted with the original master lease executed with First Choice ER in 2013. Two properties are leased pursuant to the master lease entered into in 2015 and is cross-defaulted with the master leases entered into in 2014 and 2013.

 

    UAB Medical West – This acute care facility and medical office building located in Birmingham, Alabama is leased to Medical West, an affiliate of The University of Alabama at Birmingham.

On May 5, 2015, we entered into an agreement to finance the development of and lease an inpatient rehabilitation facility in Toledo, Ohio for $19.2 million, which will be leased to Ernest under the 2012 master lease. The facility is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2016.

In April 2015, we executed an agreement with Adeptus Health that provides for the acquisition and development of general acute care hospitals and free standing emergency facilities with an aggregate commitment of $250 million. These facilities will be leased to Adeptus Health pursuant to the terms of the 2014 master lease agreement that has a 15-year initial term with three extension options of five years each that provides for annual rent increases based on changes in the consumer price index with a 2% minimum.

Hoboken facility

In the 2015 third quarter, a subsidiary of the operator of our Hoboken facility acquired 10% of our subsidiary that owns the real estate for $5 million, which is reflected in the non-controlling interest line of our condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2015.

Twelve Oaks facility

In the third quarter of 2015, we sent notice of termination of the lease to our tenant at our Twelve Oaks facility. As a result of the lease terminating, we recorded a charge of $1.9 million to reserve against the straight-line rent receivables. In addition, we accelerated the amortization of the related lease intangible asset resulting in $0.5 million of additional expense in the 2015 third quarter. At September 30, 2015, we have less than $1.2 million of exposure outstanding with this tenants, and we have a letter of credit for approximately $0.5 million to cover any rent and other monetary payments not paid. In addition, the tenant is continuing to make partial payments on the outstanding obligations. Although no assurances can be made that we will not have any impairment charges or write-offs of receivables in the future, we believe our investment in Twelve Oaks at September 30, 2015 is fully recoverable.

Florence facility

On March 6, 2013, the tenant of our $26.9 million facility in Phoenix, Arizona filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. At September 30, 2015, we have approximately $0.9 million of receivables outstanding but the tenant continues to pay us in accordance with bankruptcy orders. In addition, we have a letter of credit for approximately $1.2 million to cover any rent and other monetary payments not paid. Although no assurances can be made that we will not have any impairment charges in the future, we believe our investment in Florence at September 30, 2015 is fully recoverable.

Gilbert facility

In the first quarter of 2014, the tenant of our facility in Gilbert, Arizona filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy; however, we sent notice of termination of the lease prior to the bankruptcy filing. As a result of the lease terminating, we recorded a charge of approximately $1 million to reserve against the straight-line rent receivables. In addition, we accelerated the amortization of the related lease intangible asset resulting in $1.1 million of additional expense in the 2014 first quarter. The tenant has continued to pay its monetary obligations, and we have agreed to the terms of an amended lease upon the tenant’s bankruptcy exit. Although no assurances can be made that we will not have any impairment charges or write-offs of receivables in the future, we believe our real estate investment in Gilbert of $13.8 million at September 30, 2015 is fully recoverable.

On July 27, 2015, we received a commitment to provide a senior unsecured bridge loan facility in the original principal amount of $1.0 billion to fund the acquisition of Capella pursuant to a commitment letter from JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Goldman, Sachs & Co. Funding under the bridge facility was not necessary as we funded the acquisition through a combination of an equity issuance and other borrowings. We incurred and expensed certain customary structuring and underwriting fees of $3.9 million in the third quarter related to the bridge commitment.

On August 4, 2015, we entered into an amendment to our revolving credit and term loan agreement to increase the current aggregate committed size to $1.25 billion and amend certain covenants in order to permit us to consummate and finance the acquisition of Capella.

On August 19, 2015, we completed a €500 million senior unsecured notes offering (“2015 Senior Unsecured Notes”), proceeds of which were used to repay Euro-denominated borrowings under our credit facility and to fund our European investments. Interest on the notes will be payable annually on August 19 of each year, commencing on August 19, 2016. The 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes will pay interest in cash at a rate of 4.00% per year. The notes mature on August 19, 2022. We may redeem some or all of the 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes at any time. If the notes are redeemed prior to 90 days before maturity, the redemption price will be 100% of their principal amount, plus a make-whole premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date. Within the period beginning on or after 90 days before maturity, the notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date. The 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured basis by the Company. In the event of a change of control, each holder of the notes may require us to repurchase some or all of our notes at a repurchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of the purchase.

On September 30, 2015, we amended our credit facility to, among other things, increase the aggregate commitment under our revolver to $1.3 billion and increase the term loan portion to $250 million. In addition, this amendment includes a new accordion feature that allows us to expand our credit facility by another $400 million for a total commitment of $1.95 billion. This amendment resulted in a $0.1 million expense in the 2015 third quarter.

During the second quarter 2010, we entered into an interest rate swap to manage our exposure to variable interest rates by fixing $65 million of our 2006 Senior Unsecured Notes, which started July 31, 2011 (date on which the interest rate turned variable) through the maturity date (or July 2016), at a rate of 5.507%. We also entered into an interest rate swap to fix $60 million of our 2006 Senior Unsecured Notes which started October 31, 2011 (date on which the related interest rate turned variable) through the maturity date (or October 2016) at a rate of 5.675%. The fair value of the interest rate swaps was $4.0 million and $6.0 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, which is reflected in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets.

We account for our interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of our swaps is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income/loss on the balance sheet and reclassified into earnings in the same period, or periods, during which the hedged transactions affect earnings, while any ineffective portion is recorded through earnings immediately. We did not have any hedge ineffectiveness from inception of our interest rate swaps through September 30, 2015; and therefore, there was no income statement effect recorded during the three or nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 or 2014. We expect the current losses included in accumulated other comprehensive loss to be reclassified into earnings between now and the maturity of the related debt in July 2016 ($65 million) and in October 2016 ($60 million). At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we have posted $2.1 million and $3.3 million of collateral related to our interest rate swaps, respectively, which is reflected in other assets on our consolidated balance sheets.

Covenants

Our debt facilities impose certain restrictions on us, including restrictions on our ability to: incur debts; create or incur liens; provide guarantees in respect of obligations of any other entity; make redemptions and repurchases of our capital stock; prepay, redeem or repurchase debt; engage in mergers or consolidations; enter into affiliated transactions; dispose of real estate or other assets; and change our business. In addition, the credit agreements governing our revolving credit facility and term loan limit the amount of dividends we can pay as a percentage of normalized adjusted funds from operations, as defined in the agreements, on a rolling four quarter basis. At September 30, 2015, the dividend restriction was 95% of normalized adjusted FFO. The indentures governing our senior unsecured notes also limit the amount of dividends we can pay based on the sum of 95% of funds from operations, proceeds of equity issuances and certain other net cash proceeds. Finally, our senior unsecured notes require us to maintain total unencumbered assets (as defined in the related indenture) of not less than 150% of our unsecured indebtedness.

In addition to these restrictions, the revolving credit facility and term loan contain customary financial and operating covenants, including covenants relating to our total leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, mortgage secured leverage ratio, recourse mortgage secured leverage ratio, consolidated adjusted net worth, unsecured leverage ratio, and unsecured interest coverage ratio. This facility also contains customary events of default, including among others, nonpayment of principal or interest, material inaccuracy of representations and failure to comply with our covenants. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the facility, the entire outstanding balance may become immediately due and payable. At September 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all such financial and operating covenants.

5. Common Stock/Partners’ Capital

Medical Properties Trust, Inc.

On August 11, 2015, we completed an underwritten public offering of 28.75 million shares (including the exercise of the underwriters’ 30-day option to purchase an additional million shares) of our common stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $337 million, after deducting estimated offering expenses.

On August 4, 2015, we filed Articles of Amendment to our charter with the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation increasing the number of authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share available for issuance from 250,000,000 to 500,000,000.

On January 14, 2015, we completed an underwritten public offering of 34.5 million shares (including the exercise of the underwriters’ 30-day option to purchase an additional 4.5 million shares) of our common stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $480 million, after deducting estimated offering expenses.

On March 11, 2014, we completed an underwritten public offering of 7.7 million shares of our common stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $100.2 million, after deducting estimated offering expenses. We also granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1.2 million shares of common stock. The option, which was exercised in full, closed on April 8, 2014 and resulted in additional net proceeds of approximately $16 million.

In January 2014, we put an at-the-market equity offering program in place, giving us the ability to sell up to $250 million of stock with a commission of 1.25%. During the first quarter of 2014, we sold 0.9 million shares of our common stock under our at-the-market equity offering program, at an average price of $13.21 per share resulting in total proceeds, net of commission, of $12.3 million.

MPT Operating Partnership, L.P.

At September 30, 2015, the Company has a 99.86% ownership interest in the Operating Partnership with the remainder owned by three other partners, two of whom are employees and one of whom is a director. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the partnership issued 63.25 million and 9.8 million units, respectively, in direct response to the common stock offerings by Medical Properties Trust, Inc.

6. Stock Awards

We adopted the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) during second quarter of 2013, which authorizes the issuance of common stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance units and awards of interests in our Operating Partnership. The Equity Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. We have reserved 7,643,651 shares of common stock for awards under the Equity Incentive Plan for which 5,422,353 shares remain available for future stock awards as of September 30, 2015. We awarded the following stock awards during 2015 and 2014:

Time-based awards —We granted 390,748 and 406,055 shares in 2015 and 2014, respectively, of time-based restricted stock to management, independent directors and certain employees. These awards vest quarterly based on service, over three years, in equal amounts.

Performance-based awards —Our management team and certain employees were awarded 349,617 and 384,823 of performance based awards in 2015 and 2014, respectively. These awards vest ratably over a three year period based on the achievement of certain total shareholder return measures, with a carry-back and carry-forward provision through December 31, 2018 (for the 2014 awards) and December 31, 2017 (for the 2015 awards). Dividends on these awards are paid only upon achievement of the performance measures.

Multi-year Performance-based awards —We awarded 505,050 and 500,000 shares in 2015 and 2014, respectively, of multi-year performance-based awards to management. These shares are subject to three-year cumulative performance hurdles based on measures of total shareholder return. At the end of the three-year performance period, any earned shares will be subject to an additional two years of ratable time-based vesting on an annual basis. Dividends are paid on these shares only upon achievement of the performance measures.

7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We have various assets and liabilities that are considered financial instruments. We estimate that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values. Included in our accounts payable and accrued expenses are our interest rate swaps, which are recorded at fair value based on Level 2 observable market assumptions using standardized derivative pricing models. We estimate the fair value of our interest and rent receivables using Level 2 inputs such as discounting the estimated future cash flows using the current rates at which similar receivables would be made to others with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The fair value of our mortgage loans and working capital loans are estimated by using Level 2 inputs such as discounting the estimated future cash flows using the current rates which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. We determine the fair value of our senior unsecured notes (excluding our 2006 Senior Unsecured Notes) using Level 2 inputs such as quotes from securities dealers and market makers. We estimate the fair value of our 2006 Senior Unsecured Notes, our revolving credit facility, and term loans using Level 2 inputs based on the present value of future payments, discounted at a rate which we consider appropriate for such debt.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, are subjective in nature, and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment. Settlement of such fair value amounts may not be possible and may not be a prudent management decision. The following table summarizes fair value estimates for our financial instruments (in thousands):

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Our equity interest in Ernest and related loans, which were acquired in 2012, are being measured at fair value on a recurring basis as we elected to account for these investments using the fair value option method. We have elected to account for these investments at fair value due to the size of the investments and because we believe this method is more reflective of current values. We have not made a similar election for other equity interests or loans made in or prior to 2015.

At September 30, 2015, these amounts were as follows (in thousands):

Our mortgage loans with Ernest are recorded at fair value based on Level 3 inputs by discounting the estimated cash flows using the market rates which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and the same remaining maturities. Our acquisition loans and equity investments in Ernest are recorded at fair value based on Level 3 inputs, by using a discounted cash flow model, which requires significant estimates of our investee such as projected revenue and expenses and appropriate consideration of the underlying risk profile of the forecast assumptions associated with the investee. We classify these loans and equity investments as Level 3, as we use certain unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the fair value measurement, and the valuation requires management judgment due to the absence of quoted market prices. For these cash flow models, our observable inputs include use of a capitalization rate, discount rate (which is based on a weighted-average cost of capital), and market interest rates, and our unobservable input includes an adjustment for a marketability discount (“DLOM”) on our equity investment of 40% at September 30, 2015.

In regards to the underlying projection of revenues and expenses used in the discounted cash flow model, such projections are provided by Ernest. However, we will modify such projections (including underlying assumptions used) as needed based on our review and analysis of Ernest’s historical results, meetings with key members of management, and our understanding of trends and developments within the healthcare industry.

In arriving at the DLOM, we started with a DLOM range based on the results of studies supporting valuation discounts for other transactions or structures without a public market. To select the appropriate DLOM within the range, we then considered many qualitative factors including the percent of control, the nature of the underlying investee’s business along with our rights as an investor pursuant to the operating agreement, the size of investment, expected holding period, number of shareholders, access to capital marketplace, etc. To illustrate the effect of movements in the DLOM, we performed a sensitivity analysis below by using basis point variations (dollars in thousands):

   Estimated Increase (Decrease)
In Fair Value
 

+100 basis points

   $ (56

- 100 basis points

Because the fair value of Ernest investments noted above approximate their original cost, we did not recognize any unrealized gains/losses during the first nine months of 2015 or 2014.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Contingencies

We are a party to various legal proceedings incidental to our business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate liability, if any, with respect to those proceedings is not presently expected to materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On July 31, 2015, we entered into definitive agreements to acquire several acute care hospitals and a freestanding clinic in northern Italy for an aggregate purchase price to us of approximately €90 million. The acquisition will be effected through a newly-formed joint venture between us and affiliates of AXA Real Estate, in which we will own a 50% interest. Upon closing, the facilities will be leased to an Italian acute care hospital operator, pursuant to a long-term master lease. Closing of the transaction, which is expected during the fourth quarter of 2015, is subject to customary real estate, regulatory and other closing conditions.

10. Subsequent Events

On October 30, 2015, we acquired an acute hospital in Camden, South Carolina for an aggregate purchase price of $25.8 million leased to Capella pursuant to the 2015 master lease which has a 15-year term with four 5-year extension options, plus consumer price-indexed increases, limited to a 2% floor and a 4% ceiling annually. In connection with the transaction, we funded an acquisition loan to Capella of $9.2 million.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations are presented on a combined basis for Medical Properties Trust, Inc. and MPT Operating Partnership, L.P. as there are no material differences between these two entities.

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations should be read together with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in this Form 10-Q and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Forward-Looking Statements.

This report on Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results or future performance, achievements or transactions or events to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and as updated in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for future periods, and current reports on Form 8-K as we file them with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such factors include, among others, the following:

 

    the possibility that the anticipated benefits from the Capella transactions, the MEDIAN transactions and our other recent transactions will take longer to realize than expected or will not be realized at all;

 

    U.S. (both national and local) and European (in particular Germany, the U.K., Spain and Italy) economic, business, real estate and other market conditions;

 

    the competitive environment in which we operate;

 

    the execution of our business plan;

 

    financing risks;

 

    acquisition and development risks;

 

    potential environmental contingencies and other liabilities;

 

    other factors affecting real estate industry generally or the healthcare real estate industry in particular;

 

    our ability to maintain our status as a REIT for federal and state income tax purposes;

 

    our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel;

 

    changes in foreign currency exchange rates;

 

    U.S. (both federal and state) and European (in particular Germany, the U.K., Spain and Italy) healthcare, and other regulatory requirements; and

 

    U.S. national and local economic conditions, as well as conditions in Europe and other foreign jurisdictions where we own or will own healthcare facilities, which may have a negative effect on the following, among other things:

 

    the financial condition of our tenants, our lenders, counterparties to our interest rate swaps and other hedged transactions and institutions that hold our cash balances, which may expose us to increased risks of default by these parties;

 

    our ability to obtain equity or debt financing on attractive terms or at all, which may adversely impact our ability to pursue acquisition and development opportunities and reference existing debt and our future interest expense; and

 

    the value of our real estate assets, which may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or obtain or maintain debt financing secured by our properties or on an unsecured basis.

Key Factors that May Affect Our Operations

Our revenue is derived from rents we earn pursuant to the lease agreements with our tenants, from interest income from loans to our tenants and other facility owners and from profits or equity interests in certain of our tenants’ operations. Our tenants operate in the healthcare industry, generally providing medical, surgical and rehabilitative care to patients. The capacity of our tenants to pay our rents and interest is dependent upon their ability to conduct their operations at profitable levels. We believe that the business environment of the industry segments in which our tenants operate is generally positive for efficient operators. However, our tenants’ operations are subject to economic, regulatory and market conditions that may affect their profitability, which could impact our results. Accordingly, we monitor certain key factors, changes to which we believe may provide early indications of conditions that may affect the level of risk in our portfolio.

Key factors that we consider in underwriting prospective tenants and borrowers and in monitoring the performance of existing tenants and borrowers include the following:

 

    admission levels and surgery/procedure/diagnosis volumes by type;

 

    the current, historical and prospective operating margins (measured by earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and facility rent) of each tenant or borrower and at each facility;

 

    the ratio of our tenants’ and borrowers’ operating earnings both to facility rent and to facility rent plus other fixed costs, including debt costs;

 

    trends in the source of our tenants’ or borrowers’ revenue, including the relative mix of public payors (including Medicare, Medicaid/MediCal, managed care in the U.S. and pension funds in Germany) and private payors (including commercial insurance and private pay patients);

 

    the effect of evolving healthcare regulations on our tenants’ and borrowers’ profitability; and

 

    the competition and demographics of the local and surrounding areas in which the tenants or borrowers operate.

Certain business factors, in addition to those described above that directly affect our tenants and borrowers, will likely materially influence our future results of operations. These factors include:

 

    trends in the cost and availability of capital, including market interest rates, that our prospective tenants may use for their real estate assets instead of financing their real estate assets through lease structures;

 

    changes in healthcare regulations that may limit the opportunities for physicians to participate in the ownership of healthcare providers and healthcare real estate;

 

    reductions in reimbursements from Medicare, state healthcare programs, and commercial insurance providers that may reduce our tenants’ or borrowers’ profitability and our lease rates;

 

    competition from other financing sources; and

 

    the ability of our tenants and borrowers to access funds in the credit markets.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Refer to our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a discussion of our critical accounting policies, which include revenue recognition, investment in real estate, purchase price allocation, loans, losses from rent receivables, stock-based compensation, our fair value option election, and our accounting policy on consolidation. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, there were no material changes to these policies.

Overview

We are a self-advised real estate investment trust (“REIT”) focused on investing in and owning net-leased healthcare facilities across the United States and selectively in foreign jurisdictions. We have operated as a REIT since April 6, 2004, and accordingly, elected REIT status upon the filing of our calendar year 2004 federal income tax return. Medical Properties Trust, Inc. was incorporated under Maryland law on August 27, 2004, and MPT Operating Partnership, L.P. was formed under Delaware law on September 10, 2003. We conduct substantially all of our business through MPT Operating Partnership, L.P. We acquire and develop healthcare facilities and lease the facilities to healthcare operating companies under long-term net leases, which require the tenant to bear most of the costs associated with the property. We also make mortgage loans to healthcare operators collateralized by their real estate assets. In addition, we selectively make loans to certain of our operators through our taxable REIT subsidiaries, the proceeds of which are typically used for acquisitions and working capital. Finally, from time to time, we acquire a profits or other equity interest in our tenants that gives us a right to share in such tenant’s profits and losses.

 

25


At September 30, 2015, our portfolio consisted of 187 properties leased or loaned to 30 operators, of which 10 are under development and 12 are in the form of mortgage loans.

Our investments in healthcare real estate, including mortgage and other loans, as well as any equity investments in our tenants are considered a single reportable segment. All of our investments are currently located in the United States and Europe. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had $5.6 billion and $3.7 billion, respectively, invested in the following healthcare real estate assets:

We believe that our relations with our employees are good. None of our employees are members of any labor union.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended September 30, 2015 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2014

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2015, was $23.1 million, compared to $28.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014. This decrease is due to higher real estate depreciation, significant acquisition costs (primarily from real estate transfer taxes expensed as part of the MEDIAN acquisition in 2015) and interest costs from the expansion of our portfolio, partially offset by higher revenues. Funds from operations (“FFO”), after adjusting for certain items (as more fully described in Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures), was $72.5 million, or $0.32 per diluted share for the 2015 third quarter as compared to $46.6 million, or $0.27 per diluted share for the 2014 third quarter. This 56% increase in FFO is primarily due to the increase in revenue from acquisitions and loan investments made since September 2014 along with the completion of 13 First Choice development properties in 2015.

A comparison of revenues for the three month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 is as follows:

Our total revenue for the 2015 third quarter is up $33.8 million or 41.8% over the prior year. This increase is made up of the following:

 

    Base rents – up $22.3 million over the prior year of which $1.2 million is from our annual escalation provisions in our leases, $19.9 million is from incremental revenue from acquisitions made after September 2014, and $3.2 million is incremental revenue from development properties that were completed and put into service in 2014 and 2015. This increase is partially offset by $1.7 million of lower revenues in 2015 attributable to dispositions (approximately $0.8 million) and a 13% decline in the Euro exchange rate (approximately $0.8 million) as well as $0.3 million revenue decrease from our six wellness centers.

 

    Straight-line rents – down $0.3 million over the prior year of which $2.7 million is due to incremental revenue from acquisitions made after September 2014. This increase was offset by the $2.9 million write-off of unbilled rent related to our Luling and Twelve Oaks properties – see Note 3 to Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

    Income from direct financing leases – up $2.4 million over the prior year of which $0.2 million is from our annual escalation provisions in our leases and $2.2 million is from incremental revenue from acquisitions made after September 2014.

 

    Interest from loans – up $9.4 million over the prior year primarily attributable to loans made in connection with the MEDIAN and Capella transactions and the new loans to Prime and Capella in the 2015 third quarter – see Note 3 to Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

Real estate depreciation and amortization during the third quarter of 2015 increased to $20.0 million from $13.4 million in 2014, due to the incremental depreciation from the properties acquired since September 30, 2014 and the development properties completed in 2014 and 2015. In addition, we accelerated amortization of the related lease intangible assets of our Twelve Oaks, Luling, and Healthtrax properties resulting in an additional $1.1 million of expense.

Acquisition expenses increased from $4.9 million in 2014 to $24.9 million in 2015 primarily as a result of continued activity to pursue potential deals and the MEDIAN acquisition, including approximately $18 million of real estate transfer taxes related to the 13 properties acquired in the 2015 third quarter.

General and administrative expenses totaled $10.8 million for the 2015 third quarter, which is 9.4% of total revenues lower than the 2014 third quarter, which was 10.7% of total revenues. The decline in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues is expected as we can generally increase our revenues significantly without increasing our headcount and related expenses at the same rate. On a dollar basis, general and administrative expenses were up $2.1 million from the prior year third quarter due to higher compensation expense and international administrative expenses, which are up as a result of the growth and expansion of our company.

Interest expense, for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, totaled $35.7 million and $25.5 million, respectively. This increase is primarily related to higher average debt balances in the current year quarter associated with our 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes and our new and expanded credit facility. In addition, we recorded $3.9 million in refinancing charges in 2015 related to structuring and underwriting fees on a bridge loan that we set up as a back stop on financing of the Capella transaction as well as $0.1 million related to the credit facility amendment. Our weighted average interest rate is 4.1% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, which is a slight decline from 5.9% in 2014. See Note 4 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 to this Form 10-Q for further information on our debt activities.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, was $81.4 million compared to net income of $35.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, primarily due to the $50.1 million of impairment charges taken in 2014. FFO, after adjusting for certain items (as more fully described in Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures), was $192.3 million, or $0.91 per diluted share for the first nine months in 2015 as compared to $133.8 million, or $0.79 per diluted share for the first nine months of 2014. This 44% increase in FFO is primarily due to the increase in revenue from acquisitions and completed development projects since September 2014.

A comparison of revenues for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 is as follows (dollar amounts in thousands):

Our total revenue for the first nine months of 2015 is up $79.9 million or 34.7% over the prior year. This increase is made up of the following:

 

    Base rents – up $40.4 million over the prior year of which $3.0 million is from our annual escalation provisions in our leases, $32.5 million is from incremental revenue from acquisitions made after September 2014, and $9.1 million is incremental revenue from development properties that were completed and put into service in 2014 and 2015. Approximately $1.7 million of base rents were recorded in the first nine months of 2015 related to our Monroe property but none was recorded in the prior year. This increase is partially offset by $5.0 million attributable to dispositions (approximately $2.5 million) and the decline in the Euro ($2.5 million impact) as well as $0.9 million revenue decrease from our six wellness centers.

 

28


    Straight-line rents – up $4.4 million over the prior year of which $4.7 million is due to incremental revenue from acquisitions made after September 2014 and $2.8 million is incremental revenue from development properties that were completed and put into service in 2014 and 2015. In the first quarter of 2014, we had a $1 million write-off of straight-line rent receivable related to our Gilbert property, and in 2015, we had a $3.1 million write-off of straight-line rent related to our Luling and Twelve Oaks properties – see Note 3 to Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

 

    Income from direct financing leases – up $3.3 million over the prior year of which $0.8 million is from our annual escalation provisions in our leases and approximately $3 million is from incremental revenue from acquisitions made after September 2014.

 

    Interest from loans – up $31.9 million over the prior year primarily attributable to loans made in connection with the MEDIAN transactions and the new loans to Prime and Capella in the 2015 third quarter – see Note 3 to Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

Real estate depreciation and amortization during the first nine months of 2015 increased to $49.7 million from $39.5 million in the same period of 2014 due to the incremental depreciation from the properties acquired and the development properties completed in 2014 and 2015. In the 2014 first quarter, we accelerated the amortization of the lease intangible asset related to our Gilbert facility resulting in $1.1 million of additional expense. In the 2015 third quarter, we accelerated the amortization of the lease intangible related to our Twelve Oaks, Luling, and Healthtrax properties resulting in an additional $1.1 million of expense.

During the first nine months of 2014, we recorded a $3.1 million real estate impairment charge on our Bucks facility and a $47.0 million impairment charge on our Monroe facility.

Acquisition expenses increased from $7.9 million in 2014 to $57.0 million in 2015 primarily as a result of the completion of the Capella and MEDIAN acquisitions, including $39 million of real estate transfer taxes associated with the 30 properties acquired from MEDIAN in 2015, and continued activity to pursue potential deals.

General and administrative expenses in the first nine months of 2015 totaled $32.3 million, which is 10.4% of revenues down from 11.2% of revenues in the prior year. The decline in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues is primarily due to our business model as we can generally increase our revenues significantly without increasing our head count and related expense at the same rate. On a dollar basis, general and administrative expenses were up $6.5 million from the prior year first nine months due to higher compensation expense, travel and international administrative expenses, which are up as a result of the growth and expansion of our company.

Interest expense for the first nine months of 2015 and 2014 totaled $89.3 million and $71.7 million, respectively. This increase is related to higher average debt balances in the current year associated with our 2014 Senior Unsecured Notes, our 2015 Senior Unsecured Notes and our new and expanded credit facility. In addition, we incurred $4.3 million in fees and expenses primarily associated with the bridge loan entered into the 2015 third quarter. Our weighted average interest rate is slightly lower period over period - 4.1% for the first nine months of 2015 and 5.9% for the first nine months of 2014. See Note 4 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 to this Form 10-Q for further information on our debt activities.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Investors and analysts following the real estate industry utilize funds from operations, or FFO, as a supplemental performance measure. FFO, reflecting the assumption that real estate asset values rise or fall with market conditions, principally adjusts for the effects of GAAP depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, which assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. We compute FFO in accordance with the definition provided by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, which represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (losses) on sales of real estate and impairment charges on real estate assets, plus real estate depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

In addition to presenting FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, we also disclose normalized FFO, which adjusts FFO for items that relate to unanticipated or non-core events or activities or accounting changes that, if not noted, would make comparison to prior period results and market expectations less meaningful to investors and analysts.

We believe that the use of FFO, combined with the required GAAP presentations, improves the understanding of our operating results among investors and the use of normalized FFO makes comparisons of our operating results with prior periods and other companies more meaningful. While FFO and normalized FFO are relevant and widely used supplemental measures of operating and financial performance of REITs, they should not be viewed as a substitute measure of our operating performance since the measures do not

 

29


reflect either depreciation and amortization costs or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, which can be significant economic costs that could materially impact our results of operations. FFO and normalized FFO should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) as indicators of our financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of our liquidity.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income attributable to MPT common stockholders to FFO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 ($ amounts in thousands, except per share data):

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

2015 Cash Flow Activity

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we generated $132 million of cash flow from operating activities, primarily consisting of rent and interest from mortgage and other loans. We used these operating cash flows along with cash on-hand to fund our dividends of $130.8 million and certain investing activities including the additional funding of our development activities.

 

30


In regards to other financing activities in which we used such net proceeds to ultimately fund our $2 billion of acquisitions in 2015 and the remainder of our development activities, we did the following:

 

  a) On August 19, 2015, we completed a public offering of €500 million aggregate principal amount 4.00% senior unsecured notes. In addition, on September 30, 2015, we entered into an amendment to our existing amended and restated revolving credit and term loan agreement, dated as of June 19, 2014. The Amendment, among other things, increased our revolver availability to $1.3 billion and increased borrowings under our term loan by $125 million.

 

  b) On August 11, 2015, we completed an underwritten public offering of 28.75 million shares (including the exercise of the underwriters’ 30-day option to purchase an additional million shares) of our common stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $337 million, after deducting estimated offering expenses.

 

  c) On January 14, 2015, we completed an underwritten public offering of 34.5 million shares (including the exercise of the underwriters’ 30-day option to purchase an additional 4.5 million shares) of our common stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $480 million, after deducting estimated offering expenses.

2014 Cash Flow Activity

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we generated $95.7 million of cash flow from operating activities, primarily consisting of rent and interest from mortgage and other loans. We used these operating cash flows along with cash on-hand to fund our dividends of $108.0 million and certain investing activities including the additional funding of our development activities.

In regards to other financing activities in which we used such net proceeds to ultimately fund our $183 million of acquisitions in 2014, to fund other investment activities, and to pay down our revolving credit facility, we did the following:

 

  a) On March 11, 2014, we completed an underwritten public offering of 7.7 million shares of our common stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $100.2 million, after deducting estimated offering expenses. We also granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1.2 million shares of common stock. The option, which was exercised in full, closed on April 8, 2014 and resulted in additional net proceeds of approximately $16 million.

 

  b) On April 17, 2014, we completed a $300 million senior unsecured notes offering.

 

  c) On June 19, 2014, we closed on a new $900 million senior unsecured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility was comprised of a $775 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility and a $125 million senior unsecured term loan facility. The Credit Facility replaces our previous $400 million unsecured revolving credit facility and $100 million unsecured term loan.

Short-term Liquidity Requirements : As of September 30, 2015, we have less than $0.2 million in debt principal payments due until July 2016 — see debt maturity schedule below. However, in the second half of 2016, $125 million of our 2006 notes come due. At November 6, 2015, our availability under our revolving credit facility plus cash on-hand approximated $0.5 billion. We established an at-the-market equity offering program in January 2014 under which we may sell up to $250 million in shares (of which $22.6 million has been sold through November 6, 2015) which may be used for general corporate purposes as needed. We believe any excess availability in our credit facility, our current monthly cash receipts from rent and loan interest, and the availability under our at-the-market equity offering program is sufficient to fund our operations, debt and interest obligations (including the $125 million of principal due on our senior notes in the second half of 2016), and dividends in order to comply with REIT requirements for the next twelve months.

Long-term Liquidity Requirements : As of September 30, 2015, we have approximately $126 million in debt principal payments due between now and June 2018. With our liquidity at November 6, 2015 of approximately $0.5 billion along with our current monthly cash receipts from rent and loan interest and with the availability under our at-the-market equity offering program, we believe we have the liquidity available to us to fund our operations, debt and interest obligations (including the $125 million of our senior notes coming due next year), and dividends in order to comply with REIT requirements for several years.

However, with our current capital structure and with debt principal payments coming due in 2018 and later years, we will need additional capital, which we believe is generally available in the market such as the following:

 

    amending or entering into new bank term loans,

 

    issuance of new debt securities, including senior unsecured notes,

 

    sale of equity securities,

 

    entering into joint venture arrangements, and/or

 

    proceeds from strategic property sales,

However, there is no assurance that conditions will be favorable for such possible transactions or that our plans will be successful.

We intend to pay to our stockholders, within the time periods prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”), all or substantially all of our annual taxable income, including taxable gains from the sale of real estate and recognized gains on the sale of securities. It is our policy to make sufficient cash distributions to stockholders in order for us to maintain our status as a REIT under the Code and to avoid corporate income and excise taxes on undistributed income. See Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 to this Form 10-Q for any restrictions placed on dividends by our new credit facility.

 

Item  3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. We seek to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in interest rates by matching the terms of new investments with new long-term fixed rate borrowings to the extent possible. We may or may not elect to use financial derivative instruments to hedge interest rate exposure. These decisions are principally based on our policy to match our variable rate investments with comparable borrowings, but are also based on the general trend in interest rates at the applicable dates and our perception of the future volatility of interest rates.

In addition, the value of our facilities will be subject to fluctuations based on changes in local and regional economic conditions and changes in the ability of our tenants to generate profits, all of which may affect our ability to refinance our debt if necessary. The changes in the value of our facilities would be impacted also by changes in “cap” rates, which is measured by the current base rent divided by the current market value of a facility.

Our primary exposure to market risks relates to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency. The following analyses present the sensitivity of the market value, earnings and cash flows of our significant financial instruments to hypothetical changes in interest rates and exchange rates as if these changes had occurred. The hypothetical changes chosen for these analyses reflect our view of changes that are reasonably possible over a one-year period. These forward looking disclosures are selective in nature and only address the potential impact from these hypothetical changes. They do not include other potential effects which could impact our business as a result of changes in market conditions. In addition, they do not include measures we may take to minimize our exposure such as entering into future interest rate swaps to hedge against interest rate increases on our variable rate debt.

 

32


Interest Rate Sensitivity

For fixed rate debt, interest rate changes affect the fair market value but do not impact net income to common stockholders or cash flows. Conversely, for floating rate debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the fair market value but do impact net income to common stockholders and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. At September 30, 2015, our outstanding debt totaled $3.4 billion, which consisted of fixed-rate debt of $2.0 billion (including $125.0 million of floating debt swapped to fixed) and variable rate debt of $1.3 billion. If market interest rates increase by one percentage point, the fair value of our fixed rate debt at September 30, 2015 would decrease by $3.2 million. Changes in the fair value of our fixed rate debt will not have any impact on us unless we decided to repurchase the debt in the open market.

If market rates of interest on our variable rate debt increase by 1%, the increase in annual interest expense on our variable rate debt would decrease future earnings and cash flows by $0.2 million per year. If market rates of interest on our variable rate debt decrease by 1%, the decrease in interest expense on our variable rate debt would increase future earnings and cash flows by $0.2 million per year. This assumes that the average amount outstanding under our variable rate debt for a year is $1.3 billion, the balance of such variable rate debt at September 30, 2015.

Foreign Currency Sensitivity

With our investments in Germany and throughout Europe, we are subject to fluctuations in the Euro and British Pound to US dollar currency exchange rates. Increases or decreases in the value of the Euro to US dollar and the British Pound to US dollar exchange rates may impact our financial condition and/or our results of operations. Based solely on operating results to-date in 2015 and on an annualized basis, if the Euro exchange rate were to change by 5%, our FFO would change by approximately $2.6 million. Based solely on operating results to-date in 2015 and on an annualized basis, if the British Pound exchange rate were to change by 5%, our FFO would change by less than $0.2 million.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

We have adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b), under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, we have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file with the SEC.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

None.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Our revenues are dependent upon our relationship with, and success of our largest tenants, Capella, MEDIAN-RHM, Prime, Ernest and Adeptus.

As of September 30, 2015, affiliates of Capella, MEDIAN, Prime, Ernest and Adeptus would have leased or mortgaged facilities representing 17%, 13%, 17%, 10% and 3%, respectively, of our total gross assets. Assuming the completion of the MEDIAN-RHM merger, affiliates of the combined MEDIAN-RHM would have leased or mortgaged facilities representing approximately 17% of our total gross assets.

Our relationship with these operators and their financial performance and resulting ability to satisfy their lease and loan obligations to us are material to our financial results and our ability to service our debt. We are dependent upon the ability of these operators to make rent and loan payments to us, and any failure or delay to meet these obligations could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

There have been no material changes to the Risk Factors as presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 other than what is noted above.
