FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SABRA REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2020 RESULTS; PROVIDES AN UPDATE ON ITS BUSINESS
IRVINE, CA, May 6, 2020 — Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. (“Sabra,” the “Company” or “we”) (Nasdaq:SBRA) today announced results of operations for the first quarter of 2020 and provided a business update.
FIRST QUARTER 2020 RESULTS AND CERTAIN RECENT EVENTS
Following are the highlights of our results for the first quarter of 2020 and certain recent events:
• | For the first quarter of 2020, net income attributable to common stockholders, FFO, Normalized FFO, AFFO and Normalized AFFO per diluted common share were $0.17, $0.42, $0.45, $0.44 and $0.44, respectively. |
• | During the first quarter of 2020, we acquired two Senior Housing - Leased communities and one Senior Housing - Managed community through our proprietary development pipeline for $83.4 million (inclusive of $1.0 million of capitalized acquisition costs), which includes $16.0 million previously funded through the Company’s preferred equity investments in these developments. These investments have an estimated weighted average initial cash yield of 7.51%. On April 1, 2020, we acquired an additional Senior Housing - Leased community from our proprietary development pipeline for $30.3 million (inclusive of $0.1 million of capitalized acquisition costs), which includes $4.6 million previously funded through the Company’s preferred equity investment in the development. This investment has an estimated initial cash yield of 7.28%. |
• | During the first quarter of 2020, we completed the sale of three Skilled Nursing/Transitional Care facilities for aggregate net sales proceeds of $6.8 million. On April 1, 2020, we completed the sale of two Skilled Nursing/Transitional Care facilities leased to Genesis Healthcare, Inc. (“Genesis”) for an aggregate gross sales price of $14.4 million, inclusive of the assumption by the buyer of an aggregate $14.2 million of HUD-insured mortgage debt encumbering the facilities. As a result of this disposition, the total annual rental obligation from Genesis will decrease by approximately $1.1 million. |
• | On May 6, 2020, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share of common stock. The dividend will be paid on May 29, 2020 to common stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 18, 2020. |
• | As a result of PDPM taking effect on October 1, 2019, the annualized impact on EBITDARM coverage from our Skilled Nursing/Transitional Care facilities is estimated to be an increase of 0.14x. This increase is exclusive of the market basket increase (a net 2.4% increase on October 1, 2019), and approximately 75% of the increase is attributed to revenue and 25% is attributed to expense reduction. We believe the favorable impact of PDPM being realized by our operators put our portfolio in a stronger position going into the COVID-19 pandemic. |
• | To date, we have not seen a material disruption from the COVID-19 pandemic in the monthly payment of rents and have not utilized any deposits or other credit enhancements for payment of rent as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. For the month of April, we saw rent paid in the ordinary course, collecting all of our forecasted rents. Through the first few business days of May, collections are in line with what we normally receive through this point of the month. |
• | We expect that the impact of COVID-19 on our operators will be partially mitigated by the assistance they have received or expect to receive from state and federal assistance programs, including through the CARES Act. As of April 30, 2020, based on the information reported to us by our operators, our operators have received or expect to receive an aggregate of approximately $320 million in assistance under various provisions of the CARES Act and other state and federal assistance programs – see “Business Update” below for further details. We believe this assistance will help to partially mitigate the need for rent deferrals, although we expect and are prepared to provide such assistance as and where demonstrated to be necessary. As of April 30, 2020, we had not granted any rent deferrals or other rent relief related to the COVID-19 pandemic. |
1
• | Based on data received from our operators, through the last week of April, Senior Housing - Managed occupancy declined 160 basis points from the February average. During that same period, Senior Housing - Leased occupancy declined 130 basis points and Skilled Nursing/Transitional Care occupancy declined 460 basis points. We believe the decline in Skilled Nursing/Transitional Care occupancy is due primarily to the suspension of elective surgeries, however, Skilled Mix was slightly higher during that same period despite the overall occupancy decline. |
• | Given the uncertainty surrounding the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operators and business, we are withdrawing our previously provided 2020 earnings guidance in its entirety. |
BUSINESS UPDATE
The COVID-19 pandemic has created challenges for our business. We are grateful to our operators, who have stepped up to this challenge in a multitude of ways and continue to demonstrate their commitment to the well-being of their staff and the people entrusted to their care. We have been and will continue to be in close contact with our operators to assess the impact of this pandemic and provide necessary and appropriate support moving forward. Our available liquidity of more than $950 million, together with a balance sheet strengthened by the actions we took in 2019, provide the strong foundation needed to withstand this pandemic and provide our operators with the financial support they need.
Impact to Our Portfolio
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the operations of our facilities, like many other facilities around the country, have been impacted in several ways, most notably by occupancy declines and increased operating expenses.
Occupancy
• | Hospitals temporarily halting elective surgeries has negatively impacted occupancy for our Skilled Nursing/Transitional Care facilities as hospital discharges are a significant source of admissions. |
• | Generally, admissions have continued during this pandemic, but decreased lead volume for our Senior Housing facilities has led to fewer move-ins. While most operators have stopped physical tours to restrict access to essential visitors only, sales staffs have been utilizing other means such as virtual tours to help mitigate the decreased lead volume. Some of our Senior Housing operators have seen the number of discharges and move-outs decrease, which has limited the negative impact of the decreased lead volume on occupancy for those operators. |
• | For facilities that have a resident or employee test positive for COVID-19, admissions may have some restrictions. |
Operating Expenses
• | Our facilities have seen an increase in operating costs due to the implementation of additional safety protocols and procedures, purchases of personal protective equipment (PPE), increased staffing to allow facilities to adhere to social distancing and infection control protocols, premium pay and incentive pay for the staff. |
The combined impact of these factors is expected to result in lower earnings recognized in our Senior Housing - Managed portfolio and increased pressure on EBITDARM coverages for our triple-net portfolio for an uncertain duration. Although the extent of the impact to us cannot be accurately predicted at this time, we are confident in our capable operators and in the resilient and strong foundation we have built.
COVID-19 Mitigation
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the federal government has approved several relief packages that could benefit our operators, especially those who operate skilled nursing/transitional care facilities. The following summarizes the estimated aggregate amounts available to our operators – please refer to the Top 10 Relationships and COVID-19 Mitigation Summary section of our Supplemental Report, available in the Investor Relations section of our website at http://www.sabrahealth.com/investors/financials/reports-presentations, for more details:
• | Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund: $60 million 1 |
• | Suspension of Medicare sequestration: $10 million 1 |
• | Increase to Federal Medical Assistance Percentages: $20 million 1 |
• | Accelerated and Advance Medicare Payments: $150 million 2, 3 |
• | Employer payroll tax delay: $50 million 2 |
• | Paycheck Protection Program loans: $30 million 4 |
• | Total: Approximately $320 million |
2
1 | Mitigates EBITDARM reductions |
2 | Provides additional near-term liquidity for our operators |
3 | Benefit may be limited depending on reserve requirements under any working capital or other loans utilized by our operators |
4 | Provides additional near-term liquidity for our operators, and potentially mitigates EBITDARM reductions |
In addition to the above, there have been other governmental actions taken that benefit skilled nursing/transitional care operators. These actions include the waiver of the requirement for skilled nursing/transitional care patients to have stayed in a hospital for three days in order for services rendered in a skilled nursing/transitional care facility to qualify for Medicare Part A and the relaxation of certification requirements for employees performing nonclinical services in these facilities.
It is difficult to know with certainty the ultimate impact that the various governmental programs will have on our Senior Housing - Managed portfolio or on the ability of the tenants in our triple-net portfolio to timely pay their monthly rental obligations to us. The aggregate amount of approximately $320 million in potential assistance to our operators is informative when evaluating potential mitigation at a macro level for our operators, however it must be noted that the benefits on an individual operator basis will vary and may not provide enough relief to meet their rental obligations to us.
Impact on the Company and Sabra’s Response
As of April 30, 2020, we have not seen material disruptions in rental payments from the pandemic. Continued pressure on our tenants’ EBITDARM, however, may adversely impact their ability to make full and timely rental payments and we are prepared to provide temporary rent deferrals where warranted, determined on a case-by-case basis. If we grant a rent deferral, we will evaluate the collectability of the tenant’s outstanding straight-line rental and other receivable balances and whether their lease should be accounted for on a cash basis, which may result in the write-off under GAAP of straight-line rental receivables and lease-related intangibles.
The COVID-19 pandemic has also resulted in a material increase to our cost of capital and therefore we do not expect to make any material acquisitions or other investments in the near term, including the exercise of our option on the remaining 51% interest in the Enlivant joint venture. This, along with the dividend reduction to $0.30 per quarter, will help preserve liquidity that gives us confidence in our ability to weather extended disruptions in our cash flow from operations resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Our portfolio is largely needs-based, and we believe there are meaningful demographic tailwinds that will limit the depth and duration of the impact of this pandemic on our business, irrespective of the impact the pandemic has to the overall economy. Additionally, as elective surgeries are being reintroduced in several states, pent-up demand from the delays in elective surgeries should provide a catalyst for both increased occupancy and Skilled Mix for our Skilled Nursing/Transitional Care facilities.
Our balance sheet remains strong with liquidity of $953.1 million as of March 31, 2020, no material debt maturities until 2024 and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA of 4.97x (5.47x including the unconsolidated joint venture). For additional detail and information regarding Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA, refer to the Credit Metrics and Ratings section of our corresponding Supplemental Report and the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures, both available in the Investor Relations section of our website at http://www.sabrahealth.com/investors/financials/reports-presentations.
The repositioning of our portfolio and improvements made to our balance sheet during 2019 have made Sabra more resilient in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic and we believe will put us in a better position for future growth when the pandemic subsides and markets stabilize. To that end, we strengthened our bench with the recent addition of Darrin Smith as Executive Vice President of Investments. Last, since Sabra’s inception, we have structured our company to be nimble and mobile, and that strategy has paid off as our corporate office operations smoothly transitioned to working from home in mid-March.
Commenting on the impact of COVID-19, Rick Matros, CEO and Chairman, said, “We remain optimistic as we manage through the pandemic alongside our tenants. We’ve developed close and lasting relationships with our operators based on our industry experience and a shared passion for quality care. These enduring relationships, along with our ample liquidity and resilient balance sheet, make us well-positioned to support them during these unprecedented times. We anticipate that some of our tenants will require rent deferrals, which we will consider on a case-by-case basis. With regards to PDPM implementation, our operators’ proactive efforts have led to positive results, including better positioning them for addressing the current pandemic. I also would like to thank Peter Nyland, our Executive Vice President - Asset Management, and the rest of our team who continue to work tirelessly to support our operators. Most important, we at Sabra want to acknowledge our operators’ staffs at the facility level — they serve every day, putting patients and residents before themselves and their families. We are in awe and humble appreciation of them all.”

REPORTING DEFINITIONS
Cash Net Operating Income (“Cash NOI”)*
The Company believes that net income attributable to common stockholders as defined by GAAP is the most appropriate earnings measure. The Company considers Cash NOI an important supplemental measure because it allows investors, analysts and its management to evaluate the operating performance of its investments. The Company defines Cash NOI as total revenues less operating expenses and non-cash revenues and expenses. Cash NOI excludes all other financial statement amounts included in net income.
EBITDARM
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, rent and management fees (“EBITDARM”) for a particular facility accruing to the operator/tenant of the property (not the Company), for the period presented. The Company uses EBITDARM in determining EBITDARM Coverage. EBITDARM has limitations as an analytical tool. EBITDARM does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future cash requirements for facility capital expenditures or contractual commitments. In addition, EBITDARM does not represent a property’s net income or cash flows from operations and should not be considered an alternative to those indicators. The Company utilizes EBITDARM to evaluate the core operations of the properties by eliminating management fees, which may vary by operator/tenant and operating structure, and as a supplemental measure of the ability of the Company’s operators/tenants and relevant guarantors to generate sufficient liquidity to meet related obligations to the Company.
EBITDARM Coverage
Represents the ratio of EBITDARM to cash rent for owned facilities (excluding Senior Housing - Managed communities) for the period presented. EBITDARM Coverage is a supplemental measure of a property’s ability to generate cash flows for the operator/tenant (not the Company) to meet the operator’s/tenant’s related cash rent and other obligations to the Company. However, its usefulness is limited by, among other things, the same factors that limit the usefulness of EBITDARM. EBITDARM Coverage includes only Stabilized Facilities and excludes facilities for which data is not available or meaningful.
Funds From Operations Attributable to Common Stockholders (“FFO”) and Adjusted Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Stockholders (“AFFO”)*
The Company believes that net income attributable to common stockholders as defined by GAAP is the most appropriate earnings measure. The Company also believes that funds from operations attributable to common stockholders, or FFO, as defined in accordance with the definition used by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”), and adjusted funds from operations attributable to common stockholders, or AFFO (and related per share amounts) are important non-GAAP supplemental measures of the Company’s operating performance. Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation (except on land), such accounting presentation implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market and other conditions, presentations of operating results for a real estate investment trust that uses historical cost accounting for depreciation could be less informative. Thus, Nareit created FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for real estate investment trusts that excludes historical cost depreciation and amortization, among other items, from net income attributable to common stockholders, as defined by GAAP. FFO is defined as net income attributable to common stockholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from real estate dispositions and the Company’s share of gains or losses from real estate dispositions related to its unconsolidated joint venture, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, net of amounts related to noncontrolling interests, plus the Company’s share of depreciation and amortization related to its unconsolidated joint venture, and real estate impairment charges. AFFO is defined as FFO excluding merger and acquisition costs, stock-based compensation expense, non-cash rental and related revenues, non-cash interest income, non-cash interest expense, change in fair value of contingent consideration, non-cash portion of loss on extinguishment of debt, provision for loan losses and other reserves, non-cash lease termination income and deferred income taxes, as well as other non-cash revenue and expense items (including ineffectiveness gain/loss on derivative instruments, and non-cash revenue and expense amounts related to noncontrolling interests) and the Company’s share of non-cash adjustments related to its unconsolidated joint venture. The Company believes that the use of FFO and AFFO (and the related per share amounts), combined with the required GAAP presentations, improves the understanding of the Company’s operating results among investors and makes comparisons of operating results among real estate investment trusts more meaningful. The Company considers FFO and AFFO to be useful measures for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding the applicable items listed above, FFO and AFFO can help investors compare the operating performance of the Company between periods or as compared to other companies. While FFO and AFFO are relevant and widely used measures of operating performance of real estate investment trusts, they do not represent cash flows from operations or net income attributable to common stockholders as defined by GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to those measures in

REPORTING DEFINITIONS
evaluating the Company’s liquidity or operating performance. FFO and AFFO also do not consider the costs associated with capital expenditures related to the Company’s real estate assets nor do they purport to be indicative of cash available to fund the Company’s future cash requirements. Further, the Company’s computation of FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to FFO and AFFO reported by other real estate investment trusts that do not define FFO in accordance with the current Nareit definition or that interpret the current Nareit definition or define AFFO differently than the Company does.
Normalized FFO and Normalized AFFO*
Normalized FFO and Normalized AFFO represent FFO and AFFO, respectively, adjusted for certain income and expense items that the Company does not believe are indicative of its ongoing operating results. The Company considers Normalized FFO and Normalized AFFO to be useful measures to evaluate the Company’s operating results excluding these income and expense items to help investors compare the operating performance of the Company between periods or as compared to other companies. Normalized FFO and Normalized AFFO do not represent cash flows from operations or net income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to those measures in evaluating the Company’s liquidity or operating performance. Normalized FFO and Normalized AFFO also do not consider the costs associated with capital expenditures related to the Company’s real estate assets nor do they purport to be indicative of cash available to fund the Company’s future cash requirements. Further, the Company’s computation of Normalized FFO and Normalized AFFO may not be comparable to Normalized FFO and Normalized AFFO reported by other real estate investment trusts that do not define FFO in accordance with the current Nareit definition or that interpret the current Nareit definition or define FFO and AFFO or Normalized FFO and Normalized AFFO differently than the Company does.
Occupancy Percentage
Occupancy Percentage represents the facilities’ average operating occupancy for the period indicated. The percentages are calculated by dividing the actual census from the period presented by the available beds/units for the same period. Occupancy includes only Stabilized Facilities and excludes facilities for which data is not available or meaningful. Occupancy Percentage for the Company’s unconsolidated joint venture is weighted to reflect the Company’s pro rata share.
Senior Housing
Senior Housing communities include independent living, assisted living, continuing care retirement and memory care communities.
Senior Housing - Managed
Senior Housing communities operated by third-party property managers pursuant to property management agreements.
Skilled Mix
Skilled Mix is defined as the total Medicare and non-Medicaid managed care patient revenue at Skilled Nursing/Transitional Care facilities divided by the total revenues at Skilled Nursing/Transitional Care facilities for the period indicated. Skilled Mix includes only Stabilized Facilities and excludes facilities for which data is not available or meaningful.
Skilled Nursing/Transitional Care
Skilled Nursing/Transitional Care facilities include skilled nursing, transitional care, multi-license designation and mental health facilities.
Specialty Hospitals and Other
Includes acute care, long-term acute care, rehabilitation and behavioral hospitals, facilities that provide residential services, which may include assistance with activities of daily living, and other facilities not classified as Skilled Nursing/Transitional Care or Senior Housing.
Stabilized Facility
At the time of acquisition, the Company classifies each facility as either stabilized or non-stabilized. In addition, the Company may classify a facility as non-stabilized after acquisition. Circumstances that could result in a facility being classified as non-stabilized include newly completed developments, facilities undergoing major renovations or additions, facilities being repositioned or transitioned to new operators, and significant transitions within the tenants’ business model. Such facilities will be reclassified to stabilized upon maintaining consistent occupancy (85% for Skilled Nursing/Transitional Care facilities and 90% for Senior Housing communities) but in no event beyond 24 months after the date of classification as non-stabilized. Stabilized Facilities exclude (i) facilities held for sale, (ii) strategic disposition candidates, (iii) facilities being sold pursuant to
