Community Healthcare Trust Incorporated (NYSE: CHCT) (the “Company”) today announced results for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

FRANKLIN, Tenn., Aug. 7, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Community Healthcare Trust Incorporated (NYSE: CHCT) (the "Company") today announced results for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The Company reported net income for the second quarter of approximately $2.4 million, or $0.12 per diluted common share. Normalized funds from operations and adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO") for the three months ended June 30, 2018 totaled $0.40 and $0.42, respectively, per diluted common share.

Highlights include:

  • During the second quarter of 2018, the Company acquired three real estate properties totaling approximately 68,000 square feet for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $11.7 million, including cash consideration of approximately $7.4 million and $4.5 million fair value of real estate received in foreclosure. Upon acquisition, two of the properties were 100% leased in the aggregate with lease expirations ranging from 2020 through 2026, and one property previously secured a mortgage note receivable held by the Company. The property is subject to a signed term sheet to be leased to a single tenant as soon as the lease can be negotiated.
  • On April 25, 2018, the Company provided a $23.0 million loan to a newly formed company (Newco), secured by all assets and ownership interests in seven long-term acute care hospitals and one inpatient rehabilitation hospital that, along with a series of investments by the management of Newco, allowed Newco to acquire certain assets of the Borrower.
  • Also on April 25, 2018, $10.95 million of promissory notes purchased in late 2017 and first quarter of 2018 and approximately $0.261 million of interest on those promissory notes and approximately $0.25 million in fees and reimbursement of expenses and approximately $6.7 million principal and accrued interest related to its mortgage note receivable were satisfied with proceeds from the loan. In addition, the Company received title to the property previously financed by the mortgage note receivable at an approximate $4.5 million valuation.
  • On July 30, 2018, the Company acquired a real estate property totaling approximately 17,000 square feet for a purchase price and cash consideration of approximately $3.5 million. The building was 100% leased at acquisition with lease expirations in 2023.
  • The Company has one property under a definitive purchase agreement for an expected purchase price of approximately $3.2 million. The Company anticipates the property will close during the third quarter of 2018. However, the Company is currently performing due diligence procedures customary for these types of transactions and cannot provide assurance as to the timing of when, or whether, the transaction will actually close.
  • The Company also has five properties under definitive purchase agreements, to be acquired after completion and occupancy, for an aggregate expected purchase price of approximately $103.0 million. The Company's expected aggregate returns on these investments range from approximately 9.4% to 11.0%. The Company expects to close these properties through the end of 2019; however, the Company cannot provide assurance as to the timing of when, or whether, these transactions will actually close.
  • On August 1, 2018, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly common stock dividend in the amount of $0.4025 per share. The dividend is payable on August 31, 2018 to stockholders of record on August 17, 2018.

             (1)     Historical cost accounting for real
                                 estate assets implicitly assumes
                                 that the value of real estate assets
                                 diminishes predictably over time.
                                 However, since real estate values
                                 have historically risen or fallen
                                 with market conditions, many
                                 industry investors deem
                                 presentations of operating results
                                 for real estate companies that use
                                 historical cost accounting to be
                                 insufficient by themselves. For that
                                 reason, the Company considers funds
                                 from operations ("FFO"), normalized
                                 FFO and adjusted funds from
                                 operations ("AFFO") to be
                                 appropriate measures of operating
                                 performance of an equity real estate
                                 investment trust ("REIT"). In
                                 particular, the Company believes
                                 that normalized FFO and AFFO are
                                 useful because they allow investors,
                                 analysts and Company management to
                                 compare the Company's operating
                                 performance to the operating
                                 performance of other real estate
                                 companies and between periods on a
                                 consistent basis without having to
                                 account for differences caused by
                                 unanticipated items and other
                                 events.



                     The Company uses the National
                                 Association of Real Estate
                                 Investment Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT")
                                 definition of FFO. FFO and FFO per
                                 share are operating performance
                                 measures adopted by NAREIT. NAREIT
                                 defines FFO as the most commonly
                                 accepted and reported measure of a
                                 REIT's operating performance equal
                                 to "net income (computed in
                                 accordance with GAAP), excluding
                                 gains (or losses) from sales of
                                 property, plus depreciation and
                                 amortization, and after adjustments
                                 for unconsolidated partnerships and
                                 joint ventures." The Company has
                                 included normalized FFO which it has
                                 defined as FFO excluding certain
                                 expenses related to closing costs of
                                 properties acquired accounted for as
                                 business combinations and mortgages
                                 funded and has included AFFO which
                                 it has defined as normalized FFO
                                 excluding straight-line rent and
                                 deferred compensation and may
                                 include other non-cash items from
                                 time to time. Normalized FFO and
                                 AFFO presented herein may not be
                                 comparable to similar measures
                                 presented by other real estate
                                 companies due to the fact that not
                                 all real estate companies use the
                                 same definitions.



                     FFO, normalized FFO and AFFO should
                                 not be considered as alternatives to
                                 net income (determined in accordance
                                 with GAAP) as indicators of the
                                 Company's financial performance or
                                 as alternatives to cash flow from
                                 operating activities (determined in
                                 accordance with GAAP) as measures of
                                 the Company's liquidity, nor are
                                 they necessarily indicative of
                                 sufficient cash flow to fund all of
                                 the Company's needs. The Company
                                 believes that in order to facilitate
                                 a clear understanding of the
                                 consolidated historical operating
                                 results of the Company, FFO,
                                 normalized FFO and AFFO should be
                                 examined in conjunction with net
                                 income as presented elsewhere
                                 herein.


             (2)     The transaction costs of $57 above
                                 for the three months ended June 30,
                                 2018 relate to costs associated with
                                 the acquisition of the $23.0 million
                                 promissory note.


             (3)     Diluted weighted average common
                                 shares outstanding for FFO are

                                 method, rather than the 2-class
                                 method used to calculate earnings
                                 per share.
