the Securities and Exchange Commission's "Plain English" guidelines, this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q has been written in the first person. In this
document, the words "we", "our", "ours" and "us" refer only to National Health
Investors, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and not any other person.
Unless the context indicates otherwise, references herein to "the Company"
include all of our consolidated subsidiaries.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other materials we have filed or may file
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as information included in
oral statements made, or to be made, by our senior management contain certain
"forward-looking" statements as that term is defined by the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements regarding our expected future
financial position, results of operations, cash flows, funds from operations,
continued performance improvements, ability to service and refinance our debt
obligations, ability to finance growth opportunities, and similar statements
including, without limitation, those containing words such as "may," "will,"
"believes," "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "estimates," "plans," and other
similar expressions, are forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties
that may cause our actual results in future periods to differ materially from
those projected or contemplated in the forward-looking statements as a result of
factors including, but not limited to, the following:

* Actual or perceived risks associated with public health epidemics or outbreaks, such as the coronavirus ("COVID-19"), have had and are expected to continue to have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations;

* We depend on the operating success of our tenants and borrowers for collection of our lease and note payments;

* We are exposed to the risk that our tenants and borrowers may become subject to bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings;



*  Certain tenants in our portfolio account for a significant percentage of the
rent we expect to generate from our portfolio, and the failure of any of these
tenants to meet their obligations to us could materially and adversely affect
our business, financial condition and results of operations and our ability to
make distributions to our stockholders;

* We are exposed to risks related to governmental regulations and payors, principally Medicare and Medicaid, and the effect that changes to government regulation or reimbursement rates would have on our tenants' and borrowers' business;

* We are exposed to the risk that the cash flows of our tenants and borrowers would be adversely affected by increased liability claims and liability insurance costs;

* We are exposed to the risk that we may not be fully indemnified by our lessees and borrowers against future litigation;

* We are subject to risks of damage from catastrophic weather and other natural or man-made disasters and the physical effects of climate change;

* We depend on the success of property development and construction activities, which may fail to achieve the operating results we expect;



*  We are exposed to the risk that the illiquidity of real estate investments
could impede our ability to respond to adverse changes in the performance of our
properties;

*  We are exposed to risks associated with our investments in unconsolidated
entities, including our lack of sole decision-making authority and our reliance
on the financial condition of other interests;

* We are subject to additional risks related to healthcare operations associated with our investments in unconsolidated entities, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations;

*  We are subject to risks associated with our joint venture investment with
Life Care Services for Timber Ridge, an entrance fee CCRC, associated with Type
A benefits offered to the residents of the joint venture's entrance fee
community and related accounting requirements;

*We may be exposed to operational risks with respect to our Senior Housing Operating Portfolio ("SHOP") structured communities;.



*  If our efforts to maintain the privacy and security of Company information
are not successful, we could incur substantial costs and reputational damage,
and could become subject to litigation and enforcement actions;

* We are exposed to risks related to environmental laws and the costs associated with liabilities related to hazardous substances;

* We depend on the success of our future acquisitions and investments;

* We depend on our ability to reinvest cash in real estate investments in a timely manner and on acceptable terms;

* Competition for acquisitions may result in increased prices for properties;

* We are exposed to the risk that our assets may be subject to impairment charges;

* We may need to refinance existing debt or incur additional debt in the future, which may not be available on terms acceptable to us;



*  We have covenants related to our indebtedness that impose certain operational
limitations and a breach of those covenants could materially adversely affect
our financial condition and results of operations;

* Downgrades in our credit ratings could have a material adverse effect on our cost and availability of capital;

* We depend on revenues derived mainly from fixed rate investments in real estate assets, while a portion of our debt used to finance those investments bears interest at variable rates;

* We depend on the ability to continue to qualify for taxation as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

*We depend on our key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed and our ability to identify, recruit and retain skilled personnel;



*Our ownership of and relationship with any TRSs that we have formed or will
form will be limited and a failure to comply with the limits would jeopardize
our REIT status and may result in the application of a 100% excise tax;

*  Complying with REIT requirements may cause us to forego otherwise attractive
acquisition opportunities or liquidate otherwise attractive investments, which
could materially hinder our performance;

* Legislative, regulatory, or administrative changes could adversely affect us or our security holders;



*  We have ownership limits in our charter with respect to our common stock and
other classes of capital stock which may delay, defer or prevent a transaction
or a change of control that might involve a premium price for our common stock
or might otherwise be in the best interests of our stockholders; and

* We are subject to certain provisions of Maryland law and our charter and bylaws that could hinder, delay or prevent a change in control transaction, even if the transaction involves a premium price for our common stock or our stockholders believe such transaction to be otherwise in their best interests.



See the notes to the annual audited consolidated financial statements in our
most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021,
"Business" and "Risk Factors" under Part I, Item 1 and Item 1A therein and "Risk
Factors" under Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a
further discussion of these and of various governmental regulations and other
operating factors relating to the healthcare industry and the risk factors
inherent in them. You should carefully consider these risks before making any
investment decisions in the Company. These risks and uncertainties are not the
only ones facing the

Company. There may be additional risks that we do not presently know of and or
that we currently deem immaterial. If any of the risks actually occur, our
business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows could be
materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our shares
of stock could decline and you may lose part or all of your investment. Given
these risks and uncertainties, we can give no assurance that these
forward-looking statements will, in fact, occur and, therefore, caution
investors not to place undue reliance on them.

Executive Overview

National Health Investors, Inc., established in 1991 as a Maryland corporation,
is a self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") specializing in sale
leaseback, joint venture, mortgage and mezzanine financing of need-driven and
discretionary senior housing and medical facility investments. We operate
through two reportable business segments: Real Estate Investments and SHOP. Our
Real Estate Investments segment consists of real estate investments and mortgage
and other notes receivables in independent living facilities, assisted living
facilities, entrance-fee communities, senior living campuses, skilled nursing
facilities and a specialty hospital. We fund our real estate investments
primarily through: (1) operating cash flow, (2) debt offerings, including bank
lines of credit and term debt, both unsecured and secured, and (3) the sale of
equity securities. Our SHOP segment is comprised of the operations of 15
independent living facilities ("ILFs") that provide residential living and other
services for residents located throughout the United States that are operated on
behalf of the Company by two independent managers pursuant to the terms of
separate management agreements. The third-party managers, or related affiliates
of the managers, own equity interests in the respective ventures.

Real Estate Investment Portfolio



As of June 30, 2022, we had investments in real estate and mortgage and other
notes receivable involving 181 facilities located in 33 states. These
investments involve 112 senior housing properties, 68 skilled nursing facilities
and one hospital, excluding 13 properties classified as assets held for sale.
These investments consisted of properties with an original cost of approximately
$2.4 billion, rented under primarily triple-net leases to 25 lessees, and $209.5
million aggregate carrying value of mortgage and other notes receivable,
excluding an allowance for expected credit losses of $5.2 million, due from ten
borrowers.

We classify all of the properties in our Real Estate Investments portfolio as
either senior housing or medical properties. Because our leases represent
different underlying revenue sources and result in differing risk profiles, we
further classify our senior housing communities as either need-driven (assisted
living and memory care communities and senior living campuses) or discretionary
(independent living and entrance-fee communities).

Senior Housing - Need-Driven includes assisted living and memory care
communities ("ALF") and senior living campuses ("SLC") which primarily attract
private payment for services from residents who require assistance with
activities of daily living. Need-driven properties are subject to regulatory
oversight.

Senior Housing - Discretionary includes ILF and entrance-fee communities ("EFC")
which primarily attract private payment for services from residents who are
making the lifestyle choice of living in an age-restricted multi-family
community that offers social programs, meals, housekeeping and in some cases
access to healthcare services. Discretionary properties are subject to limited
regulatory oversight. There is a correlation between demand for this type of
community and the strength of the housing market.

Medical Facilities within our portfolio receive payment primarily from Medicare,
Medicaid and health insurance. These properties include skilled nursing
facilities ("SNF") and a specialty hospital that attract patients who have a
need for acute or complex medical attention, preventative medicine, or
rehabilitation services. Medical properties are subject to state and federal
regulatory oversight and, in the case of hospitals, Joint Commission
accreditation.

Senior Housing Operating Portfolio Structure



Effective April 1, 2022, 15 senior housing ILFs previously part of the legacy
Holiday Retirement ("Holiday") properties were transferred from a triple-net
lease to two separate ventures comprising our SHOP portfolio, which represents a
new reportable segment. These ventures own the underlying independent living
operations in which NHI has majority interests and are structured to comply with
REIT requirements that utilize the TRS for activities that would otherwise be
non-qualifying for REIT purposes. These properties are operated by two
third-party property managers that manage our communities in exchange for the
receipt of a management fee, and as such, we are not directly exposed to the
credit risk of the property managers in the same manner or to the same extent as
we are to our triple-net tenants. However, we rely on the property managers'
personnel, expertise, technical
                                       33

resources and information systems, proprietary information, good faith and
judgment to manage our communities efficiently and effectively. We also rely on
the property managers to set appropriate resident fees and otherwise operate our
communities in
compliance with the terms of our management agreements and all applicable laws
and regulations. As of June 30, 2022, our SHOP portfolio consisted of 15 ILFs
with a combined 1,731 units located in eight states. The following tables
summarizes our portfolio, excluding $2.6 million for our corporate office and a
credit loss reserve of $5.2 million, as of and for the six months ended June 30,
2022 ($ in thousands):

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, operators of facilities in our Real
Estate Investments portfolio who provided 3% or more and collectively 73% of our
total revenues were (parent company, in alphabetical order): Chancellor Health
Care; Discovery Senior Living; Health Services Management; Life Care Services;
National HealthCare Corporation; Senior Living Communities; The Ensign Group;
and Watermark Retirement Communities.

As of June 30, 2022, our average effective annualized NOI for the Real Estate
Investments reportable segment was $9,147 per bed for SNFs $10,646 per unit for
SLCs, $5,577 per unit for ALFs, excluding the non-cash write off of Bickford's
straight-line rents receivable and lease incentives discussed below in "Tenant
Concentration", $9,625 per unit for ILFs, $22,793 per unit for EFCs and $63,899
per bed for hospitals. As of June 30, 2022, our average effective annualized NOI
per unit for the SHOP reportable segment was $6,652.

Substantially all of our revenues and sources of cash flows from operations are
rents paid under operating leases for real estate, revenues under resident
agreements and interest earned on mortgages and notes receivable. Theses
revenues represent a primary source of liquidity to fund our distributions to
stockholders and depend upon the performance of the operators. Operating
difficulties experienced by our operators and managers could have a material
adverse effect on their ability to meet their financial and other contractual
obligations to us, as well as on our results of operations. We monitor operator
performance through periodic reviews of operating results for each facility,
covenant compliance and property inspections, among other activities.

COVID-19 Pandemic



Since the World Health Organization declared coronavirus disease 2019 a pandemic
on March 11, 2020, the continually evolving pandemic has resulted in a
widespread health crisis adversely affecting governments, businesses, and
financial markets. The COVID-19 pandemic and related health and safety measures
continue to impact the operations of many of the Company's tenants, operators
and borrowers. The federal government has provided economic assistance and other
forms of assistance which mitigated to some extent the negative financial impact
of the pandemic for certain of our tenants and operators who are eligible.

Revenues from our SHOP ventures and the revenues for our borrowers and tenants
of our leased properties are dependent on occupancy. With the reduction in
COVID-19 cases and their severity, most of the protective measures put in place
have been eliminated or reduced significantly, allowing a greater focus on new
admissions and related marketing efforts. Future occupancy rates may be
adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, including the possibility of new
COVID variants, increased resident move-outs, re-implementation of restrictions
on new resident move-ins, and the possibility of potential residents foregoing
or delaying a move.

Operating expenses of our SHOP ventures and those of our tenants of our leased
properties may also be negatively impacted as a result of the additional
enhanced health and safety precautions implemented in response to the COVID-19
pandemic. A decrease in occupancy or increase in costs could have a material
adverse effect on our results of operations and on the ability of our tenants of
our leased properties and borrowers to meet their financial and other
contractual obligations to us, including the payments of rent, interest and
principal.

When applicable, we have accounted for rent concessions as variable lease
payments, recorded as rental income when received, in accordance with the FASB's
Lease Modification Q&A. Reference Note 2 for further discussion. We will
evaluate any rent deferral requests as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic on a
tenant-by-tenant basis. The extent of future concessions we make as a result of
the COVID-19 pandemic, which could have a material impact on our future
operating results, cannot be reasonably or reliably projected by us at this
time.

As of June 30, 2022, aggregate pandemic-related rent concessions granted to tenants that have been accounted for as variable lease payments totaled approximately $44.0 million, net of cumulative repayments of $0.3 million and excluding any interest accrued. Of this total, net rent deferrals that are contractually agreed to be repaid are $38.0 million.



We anticipate that some tenants may need additional rent deferrals to assist
them with the ongoing impact of the pandemic. The timing and amount of any
additional deferrals cannot yet be determined. Reference Note 3 to condensed
consolidated financial statements for more discussion on the Bickford lease
restructure and agreement to repay outstanding pandemic-related rent deferrals.

See "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information regarding the risks presented by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates



There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and
estimates from the information provided in Item 7, "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," included in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 other than the
following items resulting from our SHOP transition.

Principles of Consolidation



The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its
wholly owned subsidiaries and subsidiaries in which we have a controlling
interest. We also consolidate certain entities when control of such entities can
be achieved through means other than voting rights if the Company is deemed to
be the primary beneficiary of such entities. We make judgments about which
entities are variable interest entities ("VIEs") based on an assessment of
whether (i) the total equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that
entity's activities without additional subordinated financial support, (ii) as a
group, the holders of the equity investment at risk do not have a controlling
financial interest, or (iii) the equity investors have voting rights that are
not proportional to their economic interests, and substantially all of the
entity's activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, an investor
that has disproportionately few voting rights. Additionally, we make judgments
with respect to our level of influence or control of an entity and whether we
are the primary beneficiary of a VIE. These considerations include, but are not
limited to, our power to direct the activities that most significantly impact
the entity's economic performance, the obligation to absorb losses
                                       36

or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could be significant to the
entity, and our ability and the rights of other investors to participate in
policy making decisions, replace the manager and/or liquidate the entity. Our
ability to correctly determine the primary beneficiary of a VIE at inception of
our involvement impacts the presentation of these entities in our consolidated
financial statements.

Recent Events

•On April 1, 2022, we received $6.9 million in previously escrowed funds upon
settlement and dismissal of the Welltower litigation related to the master lease
for the legacy Holiday portfolio.

•Effective April 1, 2022 we formed our new SHOP segment by transferring 15 of
the legacy Holiday independent living facilities into two separate ventures that
own the underlying independent living operations.

•During second quarter of 2022, we converted Bickford to the cash basis of
accounting for its four master lease agreements, and wrote off approximately
$18.1 million of straight-line rents receivable and $7.1 million of lease
incentives to rental income.

•In April 2022, we acquired a 53-unit assisted living facility located in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, for approximately $13.3 million in a purchase leaseback with Encore Senior Living.



•During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we disposed of one medical office
building, one senior living community, nine assisted living facilities, one
independent living facility and one hospital from our Real Estate Investments
segment for net proceeds of $108.9 million.

•In the second quarter of 2022, we received repayment of a $111.3 million mortgage note receivable.

Since January 1, 2022, we have completed or announced the following real estate or note investments:



Encore Senior Living

On April 29, 2022, we acquired a 53-unit assisted living facility located in
Oshkosh, Wisconsin, from Encore Senior Living. The acquisition price was $13.3
million and included the full payment of an outstanding construction note
receivable to us of $9.1 million, including interest. We have agreed to pay up
to $0.8 million in additional cash consideration pending the results of an
ongoing property tax appeal. As of June 30, 2022, no amount of this
consideration is expected to be paid. We added the facility to an existing
master lease for a term of 15 years at an initial lease rate of 7.25%, with an
annual escalator of 2.5%.

In January 2022, we entered into an agreement to fund a $28.5 million
development loan with Encore Senior Living to construct a 108-unit assisted
living and memory care community in Fitchburg, Wisconsin. The four-year loan
agreement has an annual interest rate of 8.5% and two one-year extensions. We
have a purchase option on the property once it has stabilized.

Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Reference Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more detail on dispositions.



Notes Receivable Repayment

In the second quarter of 2022, we received repayment of a $111.3 million
mortgage note receivable along with all accrued interest and a prepayment fee of
approximately $1.1 million which is reflected in "Gain on note payoff" in the
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for three and six months ended June
30, 2022. Interest income was $3.1 million and $5.2 million for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and $2.5 million and $5.7 million,
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

Third Quarter 2022 Disposal Activity

Discovery



In July 2022, we sold an assisted living facility located in Indiana for
approximately $8.5 million in cash consideration, and incurred $0.3 million of
transaction costs. The property was classified in assets held for sale on the
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2022. Prior impairment
charges recognized on the property totaled $8.4 million.

Assets Held for Sale and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets



At June 30, 2022, 13 properties in our Real Estate Investments reportable
segment, with an aggregate net real estate balance of $56.7 million, were
classified as assets held for sale on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet
as of June 30, 2022, including four properties that were transferred to assets
held for sale during the second quarter of 2022. Rental income associated with
the 13 properties was $1.0 million for both the three months and six months
ended June 30, 2022 and $1.6 million and $3.4 million for the three months and
six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded impairment charges of $4.1 million and $28.7 million respectively, related to our Real Estate Investments reportable segment. The impairment charges are included in "Loan and realty losses" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Other



Our leases for real estate properties are typically structured as "triple-net
leases" on single-tenant properties having an initial leasehold term of 10 to 15
years with one or more five-year renewal options. As such, there may be
reporting periods in which we experience few, if any, lease renewals or
expirations. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we did not have any
significant renewing or expiring leases. Most of our existing leases contain
annual escalators in rent payments. For financial statement purposes, rental
income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Certain of our leases for real estate properties contain purchase options
allowing tenants to acquire the leased properties. At June 30, 2022, we had
tenant purchase options on 10 properties with an aggregate net investment of
$90.6 million that will become exercisable between 2025 and 2028. Rental income
from these properties with tenant purchase options was $5.3 million and $5.3
million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

We cannot reasonably estimate at this time the probability that any other
purchase options will be exercised in the future. Consideration to be received
from the exercise of any tenant purchase option is expected to exceed our net
investment in the leased property or properties.

Tenant Concentration



As discussed in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, we
have three tenants (including their affiliated entities, which are the legal
tenants), excluding $2.6 million for our corporate office, $335.5 million for
SHOP, and a credit loss reserve of $5.2 million, from whom we individually
derive at least 10% of our total revenues as follows ($ in thousands):

Straight-line rent of $0.2 million and $1.2 million and interest income of $1.8
million and $1.6 million was recognized from the Senior Living Communities lease
for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. In addition to
the lease deposit of $8.8 million and the $6.9 million in escrow cash received,
straight-line rent of $1.0 million and $3.0 million was recognized from the
Holiday lease for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For
NHC, rent escalations are based on a percentage increase in revenue over a base
year and do not give rise to non-cash, straight-line rental income.
Straight-line rent of $1.0 million and interest income of $1.6 million was
recognized from the Bickford leases for the six months ended June 30, 2021,
respectively. During second quarter of 2022, we converted Bickford to the cash
basis of accounting for its four master lease agreements, and wrote off
approximately $18.1 million of straight-line rents receivable to rental income
and $7.1 million of lease incentives.

Holiday Transition



On April 1, 2022, we disposed of one property classified in assets held for sale
as discussed above and transitioned one assisted living community in Florida to
our existing real estate partnership with Discovery Senior Living. The
transitioned property was added to the partnership's in-place master lease. In
addition, we terminated and transitioned the remaining 15 independent living
facilities into two separate partnership ventures that own the underlying
independent living operations and in which NHI has majority interests. Reference
Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more discussion of
the ventures.

Bickford Senior Living

As of June 30, 2022, we leased 37 facilities, excluding one facility classified
as assets held for sale, under four leases to Bickford. Revenues from Bickford
reflect the impact of pandemic-related rent concessions of approximately
$5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and $6.5 million and $10.3
million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

During the second quarter of 2022, we wrote off approximately $18.1 million of
straight-line rents receivable and $7.1 million of lease incentives, that were
included in "Other assets" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, to
rental income upon converting Bickford to the cash basis of accounting. These
write offs were the result of a change in our evaluation of collectability of
future rent payments due under its four master lease agreements based upon
information we obtained from Bickford regarding its financial condition that
raised substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern.

In addition to the three properties sold that are discussed above, we completed
various restructuring activities in the Bickford leased property portfolio
during the first and second quarters of 2022. In March 2022, we transferred one
assisted living facility located in Pennsylvania from the Bickford portfolio to
a new operator that is leased pursuant to a ten-year triple net lease and wrote
off approximately $0.7 million in a straight-line rent receivable, reducing
rental income. In the second quarter of 2022, we restructured and amended, three
of Bickford's master lease agreements covering 26 properties and reached
agreement on the repayment terms of the $26.0 million in outstanding
pandemic-related deferrals. Significant terms of these agreements are as
follows:

• Extends the maturity dates of the modified leases to 2033 and 2035. The remaining master lease agreement covering 11 properties with an original maturity in 2023 was previously extended to 2028.



• Reduces the combined rent for the portfolio to approximately $28.3 million per
year through April 1, 2024, subject to a nominal annual increase, at which time
the rent will be reset to a fair market value, not less than 8.0% of our initial
gross investment.

• Requires monthly payments beginning October 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024
based on a percentage of Bickford's monthly revenues exceeding an established
threshold. The deferrals may be reduced by up to $6.0 million upon Bickford
achieving certain performance targets and the sale or transition of certain
properties to new operators.

The following table summarizes the average portfolio occupancy for Senior Living
Communities, Bickford and SHOP for the periods indicated, excluding development
properties in operation less than 24 months, notes receivable, and properties
transitioned to new tenants or disposed.

Tenant Monitoring

Our operators report to us the results of their operations on a periodic basis,
which we in turn subject to further analysis as a means of monitoring potential
concerns within our portfolio. We have identified EBITDARM (earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, rent and management fees) as a
primary performance measure for our tenants, based on results they have reported
to us. We believe EBITDARM is useful in our most fundamental analyses, as it is
a property-level measure of our operators' success, by eliminating the effects
of the operator's method of acquiring the use of its assets (interest and rent),
its non-cash expenses (depreciation and amortization), expenses that are
dependent on its level of success (income taxes), and also excluding the effect
of the operator's payment of its management fees, as typically those fees are
contractually subordinate to our lease payment. For operators of our
entrance-fee communities, our calculation of EBITDARM includes other cash flow
adjustments typical of the industry which may include, but are not limited to,
net cash flows from entrance fees; amortization of deferred entrance fees;
adjustments for tenant rent obligations, and management fee true-ups. The
eliminations and adjustments reflect covenants in our leases and provide a
comparable basis for assessing our various relationships.

We believe that EBITDARM is a useful way to analyze the cash potential of a
group of assets. From EBITDARM we calculate a coverage ratio (EBITDARM/cash
rent), measuring the ability of the operator to meet its monthly obligation. In
addition to EBITDARM and the coverage ratio, we rely on a careful balance sheet
analysis and other analytical procedures to help us identify potential areas of
concern relative to our operators' ability to generate sufficient liquidity to
meet their obligations, including their obligation to continue to pay the amount
due to us. Typical among our operators is a varying lag in reporting to us the
results of their operations. Across our portfolio, however, our operators report
their results, typically within either 30 or 45 days and at the latest, within
90 days of month's end. For computational purposes, we exclude mortgages and
other notes receivable, development and lease-up properties that have been in
operation less than 24 months. For stabilized acquisitions in the portfolio less
than 24 months and renewing leases with changes in scheduled rent, we include
pro forma cash rent. Same-store portfolio coverage excludes properties that have
transitioned operators in the past 24 months or assets subsequently sold except
as noted.

Fluctuations in portfolio coverage are a result of market and economic trends,
local market competition, and regulatory factors as well as the operational
success of our tenants. We use the results of individual leases to inform our
decision making with respect to specific tenants, but trends described above by
property type and operator bear analysis. Our senior housing portfolio shows a
decline brought about primarily by a softening in occupancy and rising expenses,
including wage pressures. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S. has
further softened coverage for these operators as well as across our portfolio.
For many of the affected operators, as is typical of our portfolio in general,
NHI has security deposits in place and/or corporate guarantees should actual
cash rental shortfalls eventually materialize. In certain instances, our
operators may increase their security deposits with us in an amount equal to the
coverage shortfall, and, upon subsequent compliance with the required lease
coverage ratio, the operator would then be entitled to a full refund. The
sufficiency of credit enhancements (e.g. tenant deposits and guarantees) as a
protection against economic downturn will be a focus as the economic effects of
the COVID-19 pandemic continue. The metrics presented in the tables above give
no effect to the presence of these security deposits. Because of the recent
disposals of the Florida medical office building and the behavioral hospital, we
combined the medical office building ("MOB") and Hospital categories previously
presented into the "Medical Non-SNF" category. Each MOB's coverage is driven by
the underlying performance of its on-campus hospital as the tenant or guarantor
under the lease. As a result, it is typical for MOB operations to have large
fluctuations in coverage resulting from hospital operations.

Real Estate and Mortgage Write-downs



In addition to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, our borrowers and tenants
experience periods of significant financial pressures and difficulties similar
to those encountered by other health care providers. Our condensed consolidated
financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 reflect
impairment charges of our long-lived assets of approximately $4.1 million and
$28.7 million as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and other factors. We reduced
the carrying value of any impaired properties to estimated fair values, or with
respect to the properties classified as held for sale, to estimated fair value
less costs to sell. We have no significant intangible assets currently recorded
on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet that would require assessment for
impairment.

We have established a reserve for estimated credit losses of $5.2 million and a
liability of $0.8 million for estimated credit losses on unfunded loan
commitments as of June 30, 2022. We evaluate the reserves for estimated credit
losses on a quarterly basis and make adjustments based on current circumstances
as considered necessary.

We believe that the carrying amounts of our real estate properties are
recoverable and that mortgage and other notes receivable are realizable and
supported by the value of the underlying collateral. However, it is possible
that future events could require us to make additional significant adjustments
to these carrying amounts.

Financial highlights of the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the
same period of 2021 were as follows:

•Rental income recognized from our tenants decreased $28.4 million, or 41.5%, as
a result of $5.7 million from properties disposed since April 1, 2021 offset by
a reduction of rent concessions of approximately $7.0 million accounted for as
either variable lease payments or as modified leases and by the recognition of
the Holiday escrow deposit and new investments funded since June 2021. Included
in rental income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 are write offs of
$18.1 million of straight-line rents receivable and $7.1 million of lease
incentives related to our Bickford master lease agreements. Reference Note 3 for
further discussion.

•Funds received for reimbursement of property operating expenses totaled $2.2
million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and are reflected as a
component of rental income. These property operating expenses are recognized in
operating expenses in the line item "Taxes and insurance on leased properties."
The decrease in the reimbursement income and corresponding property expenses is
the result of decreased amounts received from tenants and expenses paid on their
behalf.

•Resident fees and services and Senior housing operating expenses include revenues and expenses from our SHOP activities which commenced on April 1, 2022. See Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

•Interest income from mortgage and other notes increased $1.9 million, or 32.2%, primarily due to new and existing loan fundings, net of paydowns on loans.



•Interest expense decreased $2.0 million, or 15.4%, as a result of the
expiration of our interest rate swap agreements on December 31, 2021 and the
repayments of indebtedness, including the payoffs of the convertible bond that
matured in April 2021 and $250.0 million on term loans.

•Loan and realty losses increased $2.9 million primarily as a result of impairment charges on four real estate properties of $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2022 as described under the heading "Assets Held for Sale and Long-Lived Assets" in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.



•Gains on sales of real estate, net were $10.5 million associated with the
disposition of 11 properties in the second quarter of 2022 as described under
the heading "Assets Dispositions" in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated
financial statements. During the second quarter of 2021, we sold seven
properties generating gains on sales of real estate totaling $6.5 million.

•Loss on operations transfer, net represents the net impact upon terminating the master lease with Well Churchill Leasehold Owner, LLC, a subsidiary of Welltower, Inc., on April 1, 2022. See Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.



•Gain on note payoff of $1.1 million reflects the prepayment fee from the early
repayment of a $111.3 million mortgage note receivable in the second quarter of
2022. See Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2022, we had $700.0 million available to draw on our revolving
credit facility, $43.4 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, and
the potential to access the remaining $417.4 million through the issuance of
common stock under the Company's $500.0 million ATM equity program. In addition,
the Company maintains an effective automatic shelf registration statement
through which capital could be raised via the issuance of debt and or equity
securities.

Sources and Uses of Funds

Our primary sources of cash include rent payments, receipts from residents, principal and interest payments on mortgage and other notes receivable, proceeds from the sales of real property, net proceeds from offerings of equity securities and borrowings from our loans and revolving credit facility. Our primary uses of cash include debt service payments (both principal and interest), new investments in real estate and notes receivable, dividend distributions to our stockholders and general corporate overhead.

These sources and uses of cash are reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as summarized below ($ in thousands):

Operating Activities - Net cash provided by operating activities for the six
months ended June 30, 2022, which includes new investments completed, the
creation of the SHOP ventures, lease payment collections arising from escalators
on existing leases and interest payments on new real estate and note investments
completed, was impacted by approximately $10.7 million in additional
pandemic-related rent concessions granted for the six months ended June 30, 2022
and properties disposed since July 1, 2021.

Investing Activities - Net cash provided by investing activities for the six
months ended June 30, 2022 was comprised primarily of approximately $32.1
million of investments in mortgage and other notes and renovations of real
estate, offset by the proceeds from the sales of real estate of approximately
$108.9 million and the collection of principal on mortgage and other notes
receivable of approximately $114.9 million.

Financing Activities - Net cash used in financing activities for the six months
ended June 30, 2022 differs from the same period in 2021 primarily as a result
of an approximately $133.8 million decrease in net borrowings, inclusive of a
$400.0 million senior note offering in the first quarter of 2021, an
approximately $47.9 million decrease in proceeds from issuance of common shares
and dividend payments which decreased approximately $17.8 million over the same
period in 2021 and the repurchase of common stock of approximately $70.0
million.

Debt Obligations



As of June 30, 2022, we had outstanding debt of $1.1 billion. Reference Note 7
to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information
about our outstanding indebtedness. Also, reference "Item 3. Quantitative and
Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" for more details on our indebtedness
and the impact of interest rate risk.

Unsecured Bank Credit Facility - On March 31, 2022, we entered into a new
unsecured revolving credit agreement (the "2022 Credit Agreement") providing us
with a $700.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility, replacing our
previous $550.0 million unsecured revolver. The 2022 Credit Agreement matures in
March 2026, but may be extended at our option, subject to the satisfaction of
certain conditions, for two additional six-month periods. Borrowings under the
2022 Credit Agreement bear interest, at our election, at either (i) Term Secured
Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") (plus a credit spread adjustment) plus a
margin ranging from 0.725% to 1.40%, (ii) daily SOFR (plus a credit spread
adjustment) plus a margin ranging from 0.725% to 1.40% or (iii) the base rate
plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.40%. In each election, the actual margin
is determined according to our credit ratings. The base rate means, for any day,
a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) the administrative
agent's prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate on such day plus 0.50% or (iii)
the adjusted Term SOFR for a one-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Table of Contents month tenor in effect on such day plus 1.0%. We incurred $4.5 million of deferred costs in connection with the 2022 Credit Agreement.



Concurrently with the execution of the 2022 Credit Agreement, we amended our
$300.0 million term loan ("2018 Term Loan") maturing in September 2023. The
amendment modifies the existing covenants to align with provisions in the 2022
Credit Agreement and to accrue interest on borrowings based on SOFR (plus a
credit spread adjustment) that were previously based on LIBOR, with no change to
the existing applicable interest rate margins. We may also elect for the 2018
Term Loan to accrue interest at a base rate plus the applicable margin. During
the second quarter of 2022, we repaid $60.0 million of the 2018 Term Loan.

In March 2022, we repaid a $75.0 million term loan maturing August 2022 with
proceeds from the revolving credit facility. The term loan bore interest at a
rate of 30-day LIBOR plus 135 basis points ("bps"), based on our credit ratings.
Upon repayment, we expensed approximately $0.2 million of unamortized loan costs
associated with this loan which is included in "Loss on early retirement of
debt" in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income for the six months ended
June 30, 2022.

As of June 30, 2022, the revolver and term loan bore interest at a rate of
one-month Term SOFR (plus a 10 bps spread adjustment) plus 105 bps and 125 bps,
based on our debt ratings, or 2.836% and 3.04%, respectively. The facility fee
was 25 bps per annum. At July 31, 2022, no amount was outstanding under the
revolving facility.

The current SOFR spreads and facility fee for our unsecured revolving credit
facility and $240.0 million term loan reflect our ratings compliance based on
the applicable margin for SOFR loans at a debt rating of BBB-/Baa3 in the
Interest Rate Schedule provided below in summary format:

Interest Rate Schedule

                                                         SOFR Spread

           BBB/Baa2              0.850%                  0.200%                     1.00%

Beyond the applicable ratios detailed above, if our credit rating from at least
two credit rating agencies is downgraded below "BBB-/Baa3", the debt under our
credit agreements will be subject to defined increases in interest rates and
fees.

The 2022 Credit Agreement requires that we calculate specified financial
statement metrics and meet or exceed a variety of financial ratios, which are
usual and customary in nature. These ratios are calculated quarterly and as of
June 30, 2022, were within required limits. The calculation of our leverage
ratio involves intermediate determinations of our "total indebtedness" and of
our "total asset value," as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement.

Senior Notes Offering - In January 2021, we issued $400.0 million aggregate
principal amount of 3.00% senior notes that mature on February 1, 2031 and pay
interest semi-annually (the "2031 Senior Notes"). We remain in compliance with
all debt covenants under the unsecured bank credit facility, 2031 Senior Notes
and other debt agreements.

Debt Maturities - Reference Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more information on our debt maturities.



Credit Ratings - Moody's Investors Services ("Moody's") announced on November 5,
2020 that it assigned an investment grade issuer credit rating and a senior
unsecured debt rating of 'Baa3' with a "Negative" outlook to the Company.
Moody's released a credit opinion on October 31, 2021 which affirmed the rating
and outlook for the Company. Both Fitch and S&P Global announced in November
2019 a public issuer credit rating of BBB- with an outlook of "Stable." Fitch
confirmed its rating most recently on December 9, 2021 and S&P Global confirmed
its rating on November 16, 2021. Our unsecured private placement term loan
agreements include a rate increase provision that is effective if any rating
agency lowers our credit rating

below investment grade and our compliance leverage increases to 50% or more. Any
reduction in outlook or downgrade in our credit ratings from the rating agencies
could negatively impact our costs of borrowings.

Debt Metrics - We believe that our fixed charge coverage ratio, which is the
ratio of Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization, including amounts in discontinued operations, excluding real
estate asset impairments and gains on dispositions) to fixed charges (interest
expense at contractual rates net of capitalized interest and principal payments
on debt), and the ratio of consolidated net debt to Adjusted EBITDA are
meaningful measures of our ability to service our debt. We use these two
measures as a useful basis to compare the strength of our balance sheet with
those in our peer group. We also believe our balance sheet gives us a
competitive advantage when accessing debt markets.

We calculate our fixed charge coverage ratio as approximately 6.6x for the six
months ended June 30, 2022 (see our discussion under the heading Adjusted EBITDA
including a reconciliation to our net income). Giving effect to significant
acquisitions, financings, disposals and payoffs on an annualized basis, our
consolidated net debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDA ratio is approximately 4.0x
for the three months ended June 30, 2022 ($ in thousands):

Equity

At June 30, 2022 we had 44,655,156 shares of common stock outstanding with a
market value of $2.7 billion. Equity on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet
totaled $1.4 billion.

Share Repurchase Plan - On April 15, 2022, the Company's Board of Directors
approved a stock repurchase plan for up to $240.0 million of the Company's
common stock (the "2022 Repurchase Plan"). The plan is effective for a period of
one year. Shares may be repurchased from time-to-time in open market
transactions at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions
or by other means in accordance with the terms of Rule 10b-18 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 as amended and shall be made in accordance with all
applicable laws and regulations in effect. The timing and number of shares
repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price, general market
and economic conditions, alternative investment opportunities and other
corporate considerations. The stock repurchase plan does not obligate the
Company to repurchase any specific number of shares and may be suspended or
discontinued at any time.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we repurchased through the open
market transactions 1,196,175 shares of common stock for an average price of
$58.52 per share, including commissions. All shares received were constructively
retired upon receipt, and the excess of the purchase price over the par value
per share was recorded to "Retained Earnings" in the Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet.

As of June 30, 2022, we had approximately $170.4 million remaining under the 2022 Repurchase Plan.



Dividends - Our Board of Directors approves a regular quarterly dividend which
is reflective of expected taxable income on a recurring basis. Taxable income is
determined in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code and differs from net
income for financial statements purposes determined in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles. Our Board of Directors has
historically directed the Company toward maintaining a strong balance sheet.
Therefore, we consider the competing interests of short and long-term debt
(interest rates, maturities and other terms) versus the higher cost of new
equity, and we accept some level of risk associated with leveraging our
investments. We intend to continue to make new investments that meet our
underwriting criteria and where the spreads over our cost of equity and debt
capital on a leverage neutral basis will generate sufficient returns to our
stockholders. We do not expect to utilize borrowings to satisfy the payment of
dividends and project that cash flows from operations for the full year 2022
will be adequate to fund dividends at the current rate.

We intend to comply with REIT dividend requirements that we distribute at least
90% of our annual taxable income for the year ending December 31, 2022 and
thereafter. Historically, the Company has distributed at least 100% of annual
taxable income. Dividends declared for the fourth quarter of each fiscal year
are paid by the end of the following January and are, with some exceptions,
treated for tax purposes as having been paid in the fiscal year just ended as
provided in IRS Code Sec. 857(b)(8).

The following table summarizes dividends declared by the Board of Directors or paid during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

Material Cash Requirements



We had approximately $51.0 million in corporate cash and cash equivalents on
hand and $700.0 million in availability under our unsecured revolving credit
facility as of July 31, 2022. Our expected material cash requirements for the
twelve months ended June 30, 2023 and thereafter consist of long-term debt
maturities; interest on long-term debt; and contractually obligated
expenditures. We expect to meet our short-term liquidity needs largely through
cash generated from operations and borrowings under our revolving credit
facility, refer to Unsecured Bank Credit Facility above, and sales from real
estate investments, although we may choose to seek alternative sources of
liquidity. Should we have additional liquidity needs, we believe that we could
access long-term financing in the debt and equity capital markets.

Contractual Obligations and Contingent Liabilities



As of June 30, 2022, our contractual payment obligations were as follows ($ in

As part of the formation of the SHOP ventures and reflected in the table above,
we agreed to fund improvements on one of the ILFs up to $1.5 million, of which
no amount had been funded as of June 30, 2022.

In addition to the commitments listed above, we have agreed to pay up to $0.8
million in additional cash consideration pending the results of an ongoing

respectively, which includes the write off of $7.1 million of lease incentives
related to Bickford as discussed in more detail in Note 3 to the condensed

Litigation



Our facilities are subject to claims and suits in the ordinary course of
business. Our lessees and borrowers have indemnified, and are obligated to
continue to indemnify us, against all liabilities arising from the operation of
the facilities, and are further obligated to indemnify us against environmental
or title problems affecting the real estate underlying such facilities. In
addition, such claims may include, among other things professional liability and
general liability claims, as well as regulatory proceedings relate to our SHOP
segment where we are the holder of the applicable healthcare license. While
there may be lawsuits pending against us and certain of the owners and/or
lessees of the facilities, management believes that the ultimate resolution of
all such pending proceedings will have no direct material adverse effect on our
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Welltower, Inc.



In June 2021, Welltower announced that it would acquire certain assets from the
senior housing portfolio of Holiday, a privately held senior living management
company, that included 17 senior living facilities governed by a master lease
originally executed between a Holiday subsidiary and NHI in 2013. We received no
rent due under the master lease from the tenant for these facilities since this
change in tenant ownership occurred in late July 2021.

On December 20, 2021, NHI and its subsidiaries NHI-REIT of Next House, LLC,
Myrtle Beach Retirement Resident LLC, and Voorhees Retirement Residence LLC
filed suit against Welltower, Inc., Welltower Victory II TRS LLC, and Well
Churchill Leasehold Owner LLC (collectively the "Defendants") in the Delaware
Court of Chancery (Case No. 2021-1097-MTZ). In the litigation, we contended that
the Defendants repeatedly failed to honor their legal obligations to NHI. In
particular, we asserted that the Defendants acquired assets from a third party,
Holiday, that included leases to NHI senior living facilities and fraudulently
induced NHI to consent to the assignment of the leases, and then immediately
failed to pay rent or provide a promised security agreement that was intended to
secure against their default, all as part of an effort to pressure NHI to agree
to new conditions outside the assignment agreement or force a sale of the
properties to the Defendants. The lawsuit further asserted that the Defendants
owed unpaid contractual rent.

In connection with a memorandum of understanding between the parties dated March
4, 2022, NHI applied the remaining approximately $8.8 million lease deposit to
past due rents in the first quarter of 2022. Also, as provided by the memorandum
of understanding, Welltower transferred approximately $6.9 million to an escrow
account to be released upon satisfactory transition of the facility operations
and mutual dismissal of the lawsuit. NHI and certain of its subsidiaries entered
into a settlement agreement dated March 31, 2022 with Defendants formalizing the
terms to settle the lawsuit.

NHI and certain of its subsidiaries terminated the master lease with Well
Churchill Leasehold Owner, LLC as successor in interest to NHI Master Tenant
LLC, effective April 1, 2022, upon completion of the transition of the
properties subject to the master lease, as follows: (i) one property was sold to
a third party, (ii) one property was transitioned to an existing operator
relationship and leased pursuant to an existing master lease, and (iii) the
remaining 15 properties were transitioned into two new SHOP partnership
ventures. See Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more
information on these new ventures.

Also effective April 1, 2022, the parties agreed to dismiss the lawsuit and
mutually release all claims related to or arising out of the litigation and the
$6.9 million in escrowed funds were released to NHI and recognized in rental
income during the three months ended June 30, 2022. We recognized approximately
$0.7 million as a "Loss on operations transfer, net" on the Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30,
2022. This net loss represents the amount of net working capital liabilities
comprised primarily of facility furniture, fixtures and equipment, net resident
accounts receivable, accounts payable and other accrued liabilities assumed at
transition.


FFO & FAD

These supplemental performance measures may not be comparable to similarly
titled measures used by other REITs. Consequently, our Funds From Operations
("FFO"), Normalized FFO and Normalized Funds Available for Distribution ("FAD")
may not provide a meaningful measure of our performance as compared to that of
other REITs. Since other REITs may not use our definition of these measures,
caution should be exercised when comparing our FFO, Normalized FFO and
Normalized FAD to that of other REITs. These measures do not represent cash
generated from operating activities in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") (these measures do not include changes in
operating assets and liabilities) and therefore should not be considered an
alternative to net earnings as an indication of performance, or to net cash flow
from operating
                                       53

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Table of Contents activities as determined by GAAP as a measure of liquidity, and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.

Funds From Operations - FFO



Our FFO per diluted common share for the six months ended June 30, 2022
decreased $0.63 or 26.4% over the same period in 2021 due primarily to the write
offs of Bickford's straight-line rents receivable and unamortized lease
incentives totaling approximately $25.4 million, the effects of the COVID-19
pandemic and increased legal fees of $1.7 million for the Welltower litigation
and transition activities for the legacy Holiday portfolio, partially offset by
the recognition of the Holiday lease deposit of $8.8 million and escrow of $6.9
million in rental income, reduced interest expense and new investments completed
since June 2021. FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") and applied by us, is net income (computed in
accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real estate
property, impairments of real estate, and real estate depreciation and
amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint
ventures, if any. The Company's computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO
reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the
current NAREIT definition or have a different interpretation of the current
NAREIT definition from that of the Company; therefore, caution should be
exercised when comparing our Company's FFO to that of other REITs. Diluted FFO
assumes the exercise of stock options and other potentially dilutive securities.

Our Normalized FFO per diluted common share for the six months ended June 30,
2022 decreased $0.03 or 1.3% over the same period in the same period in 2021.
Normalized FFO excludes from FFO certain items which, due to their infrequent or
unpredictable nature, may create some difficulty in comparing FFO for the
current period to similar prior periods, and may include, but are not limited
to, impairment of non-real estate assets, gains and losses attributable to the
acquisition and disposition of non-real estate assets and liabilities, and
recoveries of previous write-downs.

FFO and Normalized FFO are important supplemental measures of operating
performance for a REIT. Because the historical cost accounting convention used
for real estate assets requires depreciation (except on land), such accounting
presentation implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably
over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen and fallen
with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT that uses
historical cost accounting for depreciation could be less informative, and
should be supplemented with a measure such as FFO. The term FFO was designed by
the REIT industry to address this issue.

Funds Available for Distribution - FAD



Our Normalized FAD for the six months ended June 30, 2022 decreased $3.4 million
or 3.06% over the same period in 2021 due primarily to the effects of the
COVID-19 pandemic and increased legal fees of $1.7 million for the Welltower
litigation and transition activities for the legacy Holiday portfolio, partially
offset by the recognition of the Holiday lease deposit of $8.8 million and
escrow of $6.9 million in rental income, reduced interest expense and new
investments completed since June 2021. In addition to the adjustments included
in the calculation of Normalized FFO, Normalized FAD excludes the impact of any
straight-line lease revenue, amortization of the original issue discount on our
senior unsecured notes, amortization of debt issuance costs, non-cash share
based compensation, as well as certain non-cash items related to our equity
method investment.

Normalized FAD is an important supplemental performance measure for a REIT. GAAP
requires a lessor to recognize contractual lease payments into income on a
straight-line basis over the expected term of the lease. This straight-line
adjustment has the effect of reporting lease income that is significantly more
or less than the contractual cash flows received pursuant to the terms of the
lease agreement. GAAP also requires any discount or premium related to
indebtedness and debt issuance costs to be amortized as non-cash adjustments to
earnings. We also adjust Normalized FAD for the net change in our allowance for
expected credit losses, non-cash share based compensation as well as certain
non-cash items related to our equity method investments such as straight-line
lease expense and amortization of purchase accounting adjustments. Normalized
FAD is an important supplemental measure of liquidity for a REIT as a useful
indicator of the ability to distribute dividends to stockholders.

The following table reconciles net income, the most directly comparable GAAP
metric, to FFO, Normalized FFO and Normalized FAD and is presented for both
basic and diluted weighted average common shares ($ in thousands, except share
and per share amounts):

Adjusted EBITDA

We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an important supplemental measure because it
provides information which we use to evaluate our performance and serves as an
indication of our ability to service debt. We define Adjusted EBITDA as
consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization,
excluding real estate asset impairments and gains on dispositions and certain
items which, due to their infrequent or unpredictable nature, may create some
difficulty in comparing Adjusted EBITDA for the current period to similar prior
periods. These items include, but are not limited to, impairment of non-real
estate assets, gains and losses attributable to the acquisition and disposition
of assets and liabilities, and recoveries of previous write-downs. Adjusted
EBITDA also includes our proportionate share of unconsolidated equity method
investments presented on a similar basis. Since others may not use our
definition of Adjusted EBITDA, caution should be exercised when comparing our
Adjusted EBITDA to that of other companies.

The following table reconciles net income, the most directly comparable GAAP metric, to Adjusted EBITDA ($ in thousands):

Net Operating Income



Net operating income ("NOI") is a U.S. non-GAAP supplemental financial measure
used to evaluate the operating performance of real estate. We define NOI as
total revenues, less tenant reimbursements and property operating expenses. We
believe NOI provides investors relevant and useful information as it measures
the operating performance of our properties at the property level on an
unleveraged basis. We use NOI to make decisions about resource allocations and
to assess the property level performance of our properties.


The following table reconciles NOI to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP metric ($ in thousands):
