NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023

(unaudited)

Note 1. Organization and Nature of Business

National Health Investors, Inc. (“NHI,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), established in 1991 as a Maryland corporation, is a self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) specializing in sale-leaseback, joint venture and mortgage and mezzanine financing of need-driven and discretionary senior housing and medical facility investments. We operate through two reportable segments: Real Estate Investments and Senior Housing Operating Portfolio (“SHOP”). Our Real Estate Investments segment consists of real estate investments and leases, mortgages and other notes receivable in independent living facilities (“ILF”), assisted living facilities (“ALF”), entrance-fee communities (“EFC”), senior living campuses (“SLC”), skilled nursing facilities (“SNF”) and a hospital (“HOSP”). As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we had gross investments of approximately $2.4 billion in ~~164~~163 health care real estate properties located in 31 states and leased pursuant primarily to triple-net leases to 25 tenants consisting of 9897 senior housing communities, 65 SNFs and one HOSP, excluding ~~ten~~five properties classified as assets held for sale. Our portfolio of 14 mortgages along with other notes receivable totaled ~~$234.9~~$238.9 million, excluding an allowance for expected credit losses of $15.0 million, as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023.

Our SHOP segment is comprised of two ventures that own the operations of ILFs. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we had gross investments of approximately ~~$339.1~~$341.0 million in 15 properties with a combined 1,734 units located in eight states that are operated on behalf of the Company by independent managers pursuant to the terms of separate management agreements that commenced April 1, 2022. The third-party managers, or related parties of the managers, own equity interests in the respective ventures.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for a full year. The condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual reports. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiaries, joint ventures 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 (“variable interest entities” or “VIEs”) if the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of such entities. All material intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

Effective April 1, 2022 and at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, our consolidated total assets and liabilities include two consolidated ventures comprising our SHOP activities, each formed with a separate partner - Merrill Gardens, L.L.C. (“Merrill”) and DSHI NHI Holiday LLC (the “Discovery member”), a related party of Discovery Senior Living (“Discovery”). We consider both ventures to be VIEs as the members of each, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. We are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of each VIE because we have the ability to control the activities that most significantly impact each VIE’s economic performance. The assets of the ventures primarily consist of real estate properties, cash and cash equivalents, and resident fees and services (accounts receivable). Their obligations primarily consist of operating expenses of the ILFs (accounts payable and accrued expenses) and capital expenditures for the properties. Aggregate assets of the consolidated SHOP ventures that can be used only to settle obligations of each respective SHOP venture primarily include approximately ~~$259.4~~$259.1 million of real estate properties, net, ~~$5.0~~$8.6 million of cash and cash equivalents, ~~$2.7~~$3.0 million of prepaid expenses and other, and ~~$0.4~~$0.5 million of accounts receivable, net. Liabilities of the consolidated SHOP ventures for which creditors do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company are not material. Reference Notes 5 and 10 for further discussion of these ventures.

Table of Contents

We also consolidate two real estate partnerships formed with our partners, Discovery Senior Housing Investor XXIV, LLC, a related party of Discovery, and LCS Timber Ridge LLC (“LCS”), to invest in senior housing facilities. We consider both partnerships to be VIEs, as either the members, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or the total equity at risk is insufficient to finance activities without additional subordinated financial support. NHI directs the activities that most significantly impact economic performance of these ventures, subject to limited protective rights extended to our partners for specified business decisions. Because of our control of these partnerships, we include their assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interests and operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements. The aggregate assets of these consolidated real estate partnerships that can be used only to settle obligations of each respective partnership include approximately $256.1 million of real estate properties, net, $9.2 million in straight-line receivables, $9.1 million of other assets, net, and $2.5 million of cash and cash equivalents. Liabilities of these partnerships for which creditors do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company are not material.

We use the equity method of accounting when we own an interest in an entity whereby we can exert significant influence over but cannot control the entity’s operations. We discontinue equity method accounting if our investment in an entity (and net advances) is reduced to zero unless we have guaranteed obligations of the entity or are otherwise committed to provide further financial support for the entity. Reference Note 6 for further discussion of our equity method investment.

We structured our Timber Ridge OpCo, LLC (“Timber Ridge OpCo”) investment to be compliant with the provisions of the REIT Investment Diversification Empowerment Act of 2007 which permits us to receive rent payments through a triple-net lease between a property company and an operating company and allows us to receive distributions from the operating company to a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”). Our TRS holds our equity interests in unconsolidated operating companies thus providing an organizational structure that allows the TRS to engage in a broad range of activities and share in revenues that are otherwise non-qualifying income under the REIT gross income tests.

~~At March 31, 2023, we held interests in nine unconsolidated VIEs, and, because~~We have concluded that the Company is not the primary beneficiary for certain investments where we lack either directly or through related parties the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact their economic ~~performance, we have concluded that the Company is not the primary beneficiary.~~performance. Accordingly, we account for our transactions with these entities and their subsidiaries at either amortized cost or net realizable value for straight-line rent receivables, excluding our ~~investment~~investments accounted for under the equity method. See Note 16 for information on unconsolidated VIEs.

The Company’s unconsolidated VIEs are summarized below by date of initial involvement. For further discussion of the nature of the relationships, including the sources of exposure to these VIEs, see the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements cross-referenced below (~~$ in thousands~~).

2 ~~Loan commitment, equity method investment, straight-line rent receivables and unamortized lease incentive~~

3 ~~Notes, loan commitments, straight-line rent receivables, and unamortized lease incentive~~

We are not obligated to provide support beyond our stated commitments to these tenants and borrowers whom we classify as VIEs, and accordingly, our maximum exposure to loss as a result of these relationships is limited to the amount of our commitments, as shown above and discussed in the notes. Economic loss on a lease, in excess of what is presented in the table above, if any, would be limited to that resulting from any period of non-payment of rent before we are able to take effective remedial action, as well as costs incurred in transitioning the lease to a new tenant. The potential extent of such loss would be dependent upon individual facts and circumstances, and is therefore not included in the table above.

In the future, NHI may be deemed the primary beneficiary of the operations if the tenants or borrowers do not have adequate liquidity to accept the risks and rewards as the tenant and operator of the properties and might be required to consolidate the financial position and results of operations of the tenants or borrowers into our condensed consolidated financial statements.

~~Table of Contents~~

Noncontrolling Interests

Contingently redeemable noncontrolling interests are recorded at their initial carrying amounts upon issuance and are subsequently adjusted to reflect their share of gains or losses and distributions attributable to the noncontrolling interests. In periods where they are or will become probable of redemption, an adjustment to the redemption value of the noncontrolling interests is also recognized through “Capital in excess of par value” on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and included in our computation of earnings per share. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, the Merrill SHOP venture noncontrolling interest was classified in mezzanine equity, as discussed further in Note 10.

We consolidate the real estate partnerships formed with Discovery in June 2019 and LCS in January 2020, both of which invest in senior housing facilities. The noncontrolling interests associated with these two consolidated real estate partnerships and our Discovery member SHOP venture were classified in equity as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash equivalents consist of all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. Restricted cash includes amounts required to be held on deposit or subject to an agreement (e.g., with a qualified intermediary subject to an Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”) Section 1031 exchange agreement or in accordance with agency agreements governing our mortgages).

The following table sets forth our “Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash” reported within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows ($ in thousands):

Restricted cash (included in Other assets, net)	1,863		2,625

Concentration of Credit Risks

Our credit risks primarily relate to cash and cash equivalents and investments in mortgage and other notes receivable. Cash and cash equivalents are primarily held in bank accounts and overnight investments. We maintain our bank deposit accounts with large financial institutions in amounts that may exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts. Our mortgages and other notes receivable consist primarily of secured loans on facilities.

Our financial instruments, principally our investments in notes receivable, are subject to the possibility of loss of the carrying values as a result of the failure of other parties to perform according to their contractual obligations which may make the instruments less valuable. We obtain collateral in the form of mortgage liens and other protective rights for notes receivable and continually monitor these rights in order to reduce such possibilities of loss. We evaluate the need to provide for reserves for potential losses on our financial instruments based on management’s periodic review of our portfolio on an instrument-by-instrument basis.

Assets Held for Sale

We consider properties to be assets held for sale when (1) management commits to a plan to sell the property; (2) it is unlikely that the disposal plan will be significantly modified or discontinued; (3) the property is available for immediate sale in its present condition; (4) actions required to complete the sale of the property have been initiated; (5) sale of the property is probable and we anticipate the completed sale will occur within one year; and (6) the property is actively being marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable given our estimate of current market value. Upon designation of a property as an asset held for sale, we record the property’s value at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated fair value, less estimated transaction costs. Depreciation and amortization of the property are discontinued. If a property subsequently no longer meets the criteria to be classified as held for

~~Table of Contents~~

sale, it is reclassified as held and used and measured at the lower of i) its original carrying amount before the asset was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation expense not recognized while it was classified as held for sale, and ii) its fair value.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We evaluate the recoverability of the carrying amount of our long-lived assets when events or circumstances, including significant physical changes, significant adverse changes in general economic conditions or significant deterioration of the underlying cash flows of the long-lived assets, indicate that the carrying amount of the long-lived assets may not be recoverable. The need to recognize an impairment charge is based on estimated undiscounted future cash flows compared to the carrying amount. If recognition of an impairment charge is necessary, it is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the property exceeds the estimated fair value of the long-lived asset.

During the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, ~~and 2022,~~ we recognized impairment charges of approximately ~~$0.3~~$0.1 million and ~~$24.6~~$0.5 million, respectively, included in “Loan and realty losses (gains) ~~losses~~” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Reference Note 3 for more discussion.

Revenue Recognition

Rental Income - Our leases generally provide for rent escalators throughout the term of the lease. Base rental income is recognized using the straight-line method over the term of the lease to the extent that lease payments are considered collectible and the lease provides for specific contractual escalators. Under certain leases, we receive additional contingent rent, which is calculated on the increase in revenues of the tenant over a base year or base quarter. We recognize contingent rent annually or

Table of Contents

quarterly based on the actual revenues of the tenant once the target threshold has been achieved. Lease payments that depend on a factor directly related to future use of the property, such as an increase in annual revenues over a base year, are considered to be contingent rentals and are excluded from the schedule of minimum lease payments.

The Company reviews its operating lease receivables for collectability on a regular basis, taking into consideration changes in factors such as the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area where the property is located. In the event that collectability with respect to any tenant is not probable, a direct write-off of the receivable is made as an adjustment to rental income and any future rental revenue is recognized only when the tenant makes a rental payment.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we had three tenants, including Bickford Senior Living (“Bickford”) on the cash basis of revenue recognition for their lease arrangements. Reference Note 3 for further discussion.

Resident Fees and Services - Resident fee revenue associated with our SHOP activities is recognized as the related performance obligations are satisfied and includes resident room charges, community fees and other resident charges.

Residency agreements are generally short term (30 days to one year), and entitle the resident to certain room and care services for a monthly fee billed in advance. Revenue for certain related services is billed monthly in arrears. The Company has elected the lessor practical expedient within Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases, not to separate the lease and nonlease components within our resident agreements as the timing and pattern of transfer to the resident are the same. The Company has determined that the nonlease component is the predominant component within the contract and will recognize revenue under ASC 606, Revenue Recognition from Contracts with Customers.

Interest Income from Mortgage and Other Notes Receivable

Interest income is recognized based on the interest rates and principal amounts outstanding on the notes receivable. We identify a mortgage ~~loan~~note as non-performing if a required payment is not received within 30 days of the date it is due and a borrower’s current financial condition indicates a probability it cannot pay its current contractual amounts. A non-performing loan is returned to accrual status at such time as the ~~loan~~note becomes contractually current and management believes all future principal and interest will be received according to the contractual ~~loan terms.~~terms of the note. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we have a mortgage note receivable and a mezzanine loan totaling an aggregate of $24.5 million with affiliates of one operator/borrower designated as non-performing.

~~Table of Contents~~

Income Taxes

We intend at all times to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue ~~Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”).~~Code. Accordingly, we will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, provided that we continue to qualify as a REIT and make distributions to stockholders equal to or in excess of 90% our taxable income. Certain activities that we undertake may be conducted by entities that have elected to be treated as TRSs. TRSs are subject to federal, state, and local income taxes. Accordingly, a provision for income taxes has been made in the condensed consolidated financial statements. A failure to qualify under the applicable REIT qualification rules and regulations would have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Segments

We operate our business through two reportable segments: Real Estate Investments and SHOP. In our Real Estate Investments segment, we invest in (i) senior housing and healthcare real estate and lease those properties to healthcare operating companies under primarily triple-net leases that obligate tenants to pay all property-related expenses and (ii) mortgage and other notes receivable throughout the United States. Our SHOP segment is comprised of the operations of 15 ILFs located throughout the United States that are operated on behalf of the Company by independent managers pursuant to the terms of separate management agreements. Reference Notes 5 and 15 for additional information.

Earnings Per Share

Our unvested restricted stock awards contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends, and accordingly, these awards are deemed to be participating securities. Therefore, the Company applies the two-class method to calculate basic and diluted earnings. Under the two-class method, we allocate net income attributable to stockholders to common stockholders and holders of unvested restricted stock by using the weighted-average shares of each class outstanding for quarter-to-date and year-to-date periods, based

Table of Contents

on their respective participation rights to dividends declared and undistributed earnings. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share reflects the effect of dilutive securities.

Reclassifications

In prior years, the Company presented "Cumulative dividends in excess of net income" as a single line item on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Equity. Beginning January 1, 2023, the Company separated this line item into two components, "Retained earnings" and "Cumulative dividends," and reclassified prior year information to conform to the current period presentation.

Note 3. Investment Activity

Asset Acquisitions

Since January 1, 2023, we have completed the following real estate investments ($ in thousands):


Operator	Date	Properties	Asset Class	Land		Building and Improvements		Total
Silverado Senior Living	Q1 2023	2	ALF	$	3,894	$	33,599	$	37,493

				$	5,640	$	49,141	$	54,781

In February 2023, we acquired two memory care communities operated by Silverado Senior Living for approximately $37.5 million. The newly developed properties opened in 2022 and include a 60-unit community in Summerlin, Nevada and a 60-unit community in Frederick, Maryland. They are leased pursuant to 20-year leases with a first-year lease rate of 7.5% and annual escalators of 2.0%.

In February 2023, we also acquired a 64-unit assisted living and memory care community in Chesapeake, Virginia from Bickford. The acquisition price was $17.3 million, including the satisfaction of an outstanding construction note receivable of $14.2 million including interest, cash consideration of $0.5 million and approximately $0.1 million in closing costs. The acquisition price also included a reduction of $2.5 million in Bickford’s outstanding pandemic-related deferrals that has been recognized in “Rental income.” We added the community to an existing master lease with Bickford at an initial rate of 8.0%.

We reduce the carrying value of impaired properties to their estimated fair value or, with respect to the properties classified as held for sale, to estimated fair value less costs to sell. To estimate the fair values of the properties, we utilized a market approach which considered binding agreements for sales (Level 1 inputs), non-binding offers to purchase from unrelated third parties and/or broker quotes of estimated values (Level 3 inputs), and/or independent third-party valuations (Level 1 and 3 inputs).

Bickford ~~Senior Living~~

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we leased 39 facilities under four leases to Bickford. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we did not provide any lease concessions to Bickford. Revenues from Bickford for the three months ended March 31, 2022, reflect the impact of pandemic-related rent concessions of approximately $5.5 million.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~During the first~~second quarter of ~~2023,~~2022, we converted Bickford ~~repaid $0.2 million of its outstanding pandemic-related deferrals in addition~~ to the reduction in deferrals of $2.5 million in connection with the acquisition of the ALF located in Chesapeake, Virginia. As of March 31, 2023, Bickford’s outstanding pandemic-related deferrals were $20.1 million.

~~Cash Basis Operators~~

~~We placed Bickford on~~ cash basis of revenue recognition ~~during the second quarter of 2022,~~ 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. As a result, 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 in the second quarter of 2022.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, Bickford repaid $0.4 million and $0.6 million, respectively, of its outstanding pandemic-related deferrals in addition to the reduction in deferrals of $2.5 million recognized in connection with the acquisition of the ALF located in Chesapeake, Virginia from Bickford. As of June 30, 2023, Bickford’s outstanding pandemic-related deferrals were $19.8 million.

Cash Basis Operators

Cash rent received from Bickford for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 was ~~$7.8~~$8.1 million and $15.9 million, respectively, which excludes $2.5 million of rental income related to the reduction of pandemic-related rent deferrals recognized in connection with the acquisition of the ALF in the first quarter of 2023 located in Chesapeake, Virginia discussed above.

We placed two additional operators on the cash basis of accounting for their leases during 2022. Rental income associated with these tenants totaled ~~$4.0~~$2.3 million and $6.5 million for the three and six months ended ~~March 31, 2023.~~June 30, 2023, respectively.

Tenant Purchase Options

Certain of our leases contain purchase options allowing tenants to acquire the leased properties. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we had tenant purchase options on three properties with an aggregate net investment of ~~$59.7~~$59.2 million that will become exercisable between 2027 and 2028. Rental income from these properties with tenant purchase options was $1.8 million and ~~$1.7~~$3.6 million for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, respectively, and $1.7 million and $3.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

We cannot reasonably estimate at this time the probability that any 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.

All other loans were on full accrual basis at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Montecito Medical Real Estate

We have a $50.0 million mezzanine loan and security agreement with Montecito Medical Real Estate for a fund that invests in medical real estate, including medical office buildings, throughout the United States. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we have funded $20.3 million of our commitment that was used to acquire nine medical office buildings for a combined purchase price of approximately $86.7 million. For ~~each of~~both the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, we received interest of ~~$0.4 million.~~$0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

The mezzanine loan and security agreement was modified in April 2022, so that the two real estate investments funded in the second quarter of 2022 accrue interest at an annual rate of 7.5% that is paid monthly in arrears ~~and~~ plus an additional annual rate of

The Deferred Interest will be recognized as interest income upon receipt. Funds drawn in accordance with this agreement are required to be repaid on a per-investment basis five years from deployment of the funds for the applicable investment, ~~and includes~~subject to two one-year extensions.

Bickford Construction and Mortgage Loans

NHI has a fair market value purchase option on the property upon stabilization of the underlying operations. On certain development projects, Bickford ~~as borrower,~~ is entitled to up to $2.0 million per project in incentives based on the achievement of predetermined operational milestones and, if funded, will increase NHI's future purchase price and eventual ~~NHI~~ lease ~~payment.~~payments to NHI.

As part of the ~~June 2021~~ sale of six properties to Bickford in 2021, we ~~executed~~hold a $13.0 million second mortgage as a component of the purchase price consideration. This second mortgage note receivable bears interest at a 10% annual rate and matures in April 2026.

Senior Living

We have provided a $20.0 million revolving line of credit to Senior Living whose borrowings under the revolver are to be used for working capital needs and to finance construction projects within its portfolio, including building additional units. Beginning January 1, 2025, availability under the revolver will reduce to $15.0 million. The revolver matures in December 2029 at the time of lease maturity. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, the ~~$17.5~~$16.3 million outstanding under the ~~facility~~revolver bears interest at 8.0% per annum.

The Company also has a mortgage loan of $32.7 million with Senior Living that originated in July 2019 for the acquisition of a 248-unit continuing care retirement community (“CCRC”) in Columbia, South Carolina. The mortgage loan is for a term of five years with two one-year extensions and carries an interest rate of 7.25%. Additionally, the loan conveys to NHI a purchase option at a stated minimum price of $38.3 million, subject to adjustment for market conditions.

Credit Loss Reserve

Our principal measures of credit quality, except for construction mortgages, are debt service coverage for amortizing loans and interest or fixed charge coverage for non-amortizing loans, collectively referred to as “Coverage.” A Coverage ratio provides a measure of the borrower’s ability to make scheduled principal and interest payments. The Coverage ratios presented in the table below have been calculated utilizing the most recent date for which data is available, ~~December~~March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, using EBITDARM (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, rent and management fees) and the requisite debt service, interest service or fixed charges, as defined in the applicable loan agreement. We categorize Coverage into three levels: (i) more than 1.5x, (ii) between 1.0x and 1.5x, and (iii) less than 1.0x. We update the calculation of Coverage on a quarterly basis. Coverage is not a meaningful credit quality indicator for construction mortgages as either these developments are not generating any operating income, or they have insufficient operating income as occupancy levels necessary to stabilize the properties have not yet been achieved. We measure credit quality for these mortgages by considering the construction and stabilization timeline and the financial condition of the borrower as well as economic and market conditions.

We consider the guidance in ASC 310-20 when determining whether a modification, extension or renewal constitutes a current period origination. The credit quality indicator as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, is presented below for the amortized cost, net by year of origination ($ in thousands):

Note 5. Senior Housing Operating Portfolio Formation Activities

Effective April 1, 2022 we transitioned the operations of 15 ILFs previously leased pursuant to a triple-net lease into two new ventures comprising our SHOP activities. These new ventures, consolidated by the Company, are structured to comply with REIT requirements and utilize the TRS for activities that would otherwise be non-qualifying for REIT purposes. The properties in each venture are operated by a property manager in exchange for a management fee. The equity structure of these ventures is comprised of ~~65% and 35%~~ preferred and common equity ~~interests, respectively.~~interests. The Company owns 100% of the preferred equity interests in these ventures ~~and~~with an ~~aggregate blended common equity interest of 89%. As of March 31, 2023, the~~ annual fixed preferred return ~~was~~of approximately $10.2 ~~million.~~million as of June 30, 2023. Additionally, the managers, or related parties of the managers, own common equity interests in their respective ventures. Each venture is discussed in more detail below.

Merrill Managed Portfolio

We transferred six ILFs located in California and Washington into a consolidated venture with Merrill. Merrill initially contributed $10.6 million in cash for its 20% common equity interest in the venture. In the second quarter of 2023, the members contributed an additional $4.6 million to fund additional capital expenditures, of which Merrill contributed $0.9 million in cash in accordance with its common equity interest percentage in the venture. The operating agreement ~~includes~~provides for contingent distributions to the members based on the attainment of certain yields on investment calculated on an annual basis.

The properties are managed by Merrill pursuant to a management agreement with an initial term through March 2032 that automatically renews on a year-to-year basis thereafter unless terminated by either party with notice. The management agreement entitles Merrill to a base management fee of 5% of net revenue and a real estate services fee of 5% of real estate costs incurred

during any calendar year that exceed $1,000 times the number of units at each facility. Given certain provisions of the operating agreement, including provisions related to a Company change in control, the noncontrolling interest associated with the venture was determined to be contingently redeemable ~~as discussed further in Note 10. At March 31, 2023, the Merrill SHOP venture noncontrolling interest was~~and classified in mezzanine equity, as discussed further in Note 10.

Discovery Managed Portfolio

We transferred nine ILFs located in Arkansas, Georgia, Ohio, Oklahoma, New Jersey, and South Carolina into a consolidated venture with the Discovery member, a related party of Discovery. The Discovery member contributed $1.1 million in cash for its 2% common equity interest in the venture. The operating agreement ~~includes~~provides for contingent distributions to the members based on the attainment of certain yields on investment calculated on an annual basis. The noncontrolling interest is included in “Equity” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet~~Sheets as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The properties are managed by separate related parties of Discovery pursuant to management agreements with an initial term through March 2032 that automatically renews on a year-to-year basis thereafter unless terminated by either party with notice. The management agreements entitle the managers to a base management fee of 5% of net revenue.

Note 6. Equity Method Investment

Concurrently with the acquisition of a CCRC from LCS-Westminster Partnership III, LLP in January 2020, we invested $0.9 million in the operating company, Timber Ridge OpCo, representing a 25% equity interest. This investment is held by our TRS to be compliant with the provisions of the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007. As part of our investment, we provided Timber Ridge OpCo a revolving credit facility of up to $5.0 million of which no funds have been drawn.

We account for our investment in Timber Ridge OpCo under the equity method and decrease the carrying value of our investment for losses in the entity and distributions to NHI for cumulative amounts up to and including our basis plus any guaranteed or implied commitments to fund operations. In February 2023, we received $2.5 million from Timber Ridge Opco

~~Table of Contents~~

representing the Company’s proportionate share of the lease incentive earned, as discussed in Note 7, based on its equity interest in the entity. Our guaranteed and implied commitments are currently limited to the additional $5.0 million under the revolving credit facility and the $2.5 million lease incentive distribution received. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we have recognized our share of Timber Ridge OpCo’s operating losses in excess of our initial investment. These cumulative losses of $5.0 million in excess of our original basis and the $2.5 million lease incentive distribution received are included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023. Excess unrecognized equity method losses for ~~both~~ the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 were $0.7 million and $1.3 million, respectively, and $0.9 million and $1.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, ~~were $0.6 million.~~respectively. Cumulative unrecognized losses were ~~$6.5~~$7.2 million through ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023. We recognized gains of approximately $0.3 million and $0.6 million, representing cash distributions received related to our investment in Timber Ridge OpCo for the three and six months ended ~~March 31, 2022.~~June 30, 2022, respectively.

The Timber Ridge property is subject to early resident mortgages secured by a Deed of Trust and Indenture of Trust (the “Deed and Indenture”). As part of our acquisition, NHI-LCS JV I, LLC (“Timber Ridge PropCo”) acquired the Timber Ridge CCRC property and a subordination agreement was entered into pursuant to which the trustee acknowledged and confirmed that the security interests created under the Deed and Indenture were subordinate to any security interests granted in connection with the loan made by NHI to Timber Ridge PropCo. In addition, byunder the terms of the resident loan assumption agreement, during the term of the lease (seven years with two renewal options), Timber Ridge OpCo is to indemnify Timber Ridge PropCo for any repayment by Timber Ridge PropCo of these liabilities under the guarantee. As a result of the subordination and resident loan assumption agreements, no liability has been recorded as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023. The balance secured by the Deed and Indenture was ~~$13.2~~$12.9 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023.

loans

On March 31, 2022, we entered into ~~a new~~an 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 one of the following (i) Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (plus a credit spread adjustment) plus a margin ranging from

Table of Contents

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 agent’s prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate on such day plus 0.50% or (iii) the adjusted Term SOFR for a one-month tenor in effect on such day plus 1.0%. In addition, the 2022 Credit Agreement requires a facility fee equal to 0.125% to 0.30%, based on our credit rating.

~~We have a $220.0 million term loan, maturing in September 2023 (“2023 Term Loan”) whose covenants align with provisions in~~In the 2022 Credit Agreement and to accrue interest on borrowings based on SOFR (plus a credit spread adjustment). We may also elect for the 2023 Term Loan to accrue interest at a base rate plus the applicable margin. During the three months ended March 31,first quarter of 2023, we repaid $20.0 million of ~~the~~a term loan with a maturity of September 2023 (the “2023 Term ~~Loan.~~

~~The revolving facility fee was 25 bps per annum and based on~~Loan”). In June 2023, we entered into a two-year $200.0 million term loan agreement (the “2025 Term Loan”) bearing interest at a variable rate which is SOFR-based with a margin determined according to our ~~current~~ credit ratings plus a 0.10% credit spread adjustment. The Company incurred approximately $2.7 million of deferred financing cost associated with this loan. The 2025 Term Loan proceeds were used to repay a portion of the ~~facility presently provides for floating interest on the revolving credit facility and the~~remaining $220.0 million 2023 Term Loan ~~at SOFR CME~~balance. Accrued interest on borrowings was consistent with the new 2025 Term ~~Option one-month~~Loan. Upon repayment, we expensed approximately $0.1 million of unamortized loan ~~(plus a 10 bps spread adjustment) plus 105 bps and a blended 125 bps, respectively. At March 31, 2023, the SOFR CME Term Option one-month was 480 bps.~~costs associated with this loan which are included in “Loss on early retirement of debt”.

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we had ~~$485.0~~$504.0 million available to draw on the revolving portion of our credit facility, subject to usual and customary covenants. Among other stipulations, the unsecured credit facility agreement requires that we maintain certain financial ratios within limits set by our creditors. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with these ratios.

2031 Senior Notes

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”). The 2031 Senior Notes were sold at an issue price of 99.196% of face value before the underwriters’ discount.

Fannie Mae Term Loans

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we had $60.1 million in Fannie Mae term-debt financing, that originated in March 2015, requiring interest-only payments at an annual rate of 3.79% with a 10-year maturity. The mortgages are non-recourse and secured by ~~eleven~~11 properties leased to Bickford.

Note 9. Commitments, Contingencies and Uncertainties

In the normal course of business, we enter into a variety of commitments, typically consisting of funding revolving credit arrangements, construction and mezzanine loans to our operators to conduct expansions and acquisitions for their own account, and commitments for the funding of construction for expansion or renovation to our existing properties under lease. In our leasing operations, we offer to our tenants and to sellers of newly acquired properties a variety of inducements that originate contractually as contingencies but which may become commitments upon the satisfaction of the contingent event. Contingent payments earned will be included in the respective lease bases when funded.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we had working capital, construction and mezzanine loan commitments to six operators or borrowers for an aggregate of $145.4 million, of which we had funded ~~$93.7~~$97.8 million toward these commitments. ~~As provided above, loans~~Loan funded amounts do not ~~include~~reflect the effects of discounts or commitment fees.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we had $23.2 million of development commitments for construction and renovation for seven properties of which we had funded ~~$17.1~~$18.0 million toward these commitments. In addition to these commitments, we have agreed to pay up to $0.8 million in additional cash consideration pending the results of an ongoing property tax appeal related to a property acquired in the second quarter of 2022. As of March 31, 2023, no amount of this consideration is expected to be paid. One of our consolidated real estate partnerships, NHI REIT of DSL PropCo, LLC, has committed to fund up to $2.0 million toward the purchase of condominium units located at one of the facilities of which $1.0 million had been funded as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we had an aggregate of ~~$15.9~~$13.9 million in remaining contingent lease inducement commitments in ~~six~~five lease agreements which are generally based on the performance of facility operations and may or may not be met by the tenant. In the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we funded $10.0 million to Timber Ridge OpCo based upon the achievement of all performance conditions as discussed in Note 7.

The credit loss liability for unfunded loan commitments is estimated using the same methodology as used for our funded mortgage and other notes receivable based on the estimated amount that we expect to fund. We applied the same market adjustments as discussed in Note 4.

The liability for expected credit losses on our unfunded loans is reflected in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is presented in the following table for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 ($ in thousands):

Note 10. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest

The interest held by Merrill in its SHOP venture was classified as a “Redeemable noncontrolling interest” in the mezzanine section between “Total liabilities” and “Stockholders’ equity” on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Certain provisions within the operating agreement of the Merrill venture provide Merrill with put rights upon certain contingent events that are not solely within the control of the Company. Therefore, Merrill’s noncontrolling interest was determined to be contingently redeemable. The redeemable noncontrolling interest is not currently redeemable and we concluded a contingent redemption event is not probable to occur as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023. Consequently, the noncontrolling interest will not be subsequently remeasured to its redemption amount until such contingent event and the related redemption are probable to occur. We will continue to reflect the attribution of gains or losses to the redeemable noncontrolling interest each period.

The following table presents the change in “Redeemable noncontrolling interest” for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 ($ in thousands):

Note 11. Equity and Dividends

Share Repurchase Plan

On February 17, 2023, our Board of Directors authorized a revised stock repurchase program (the “Revised Repurchase Plan”) pursuant to which we may purchase up to $160.0 million in shares of our issued and outstanding common stock, par value $0.01 per share. The Revised Repurchase Plan is effective for a period of one year and does not require us to repurchase any specific number of shares. The Revised Repurchase Plan may be suspended or discontinued at any time. 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 (the “Exchange Act”) and shall be made in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations in effect. The timing and number of shares repurchased, if any, will depend on a variety of factors, including price, general market and economic conditions, alternative investment opportunities and other corporate considerations.

~~Table of Contents~~

During the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, no common stock was repurchased. During 2022, cumulative repurchases through open market transactions ~~were~~totaled 2,468,354 shares of common stock for approximately $151.6 million. All shares received were constructively retired upon receipt, and reflected as a reduction to “Retained earnings” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022.

In March 2023, we renewed our automatic “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 and concurrently entered into a new equity distribution agreement whereby we can sell up to $500.0 million in common stock under an at-the-market (“ATM”) equity program. We incurred approximately $0.5 million in costs for these programs which was paid during the second quarter of 2023. Upon expiration of the prior registration statement and ATM equity program, approximately $0.3 million in equity issuance costs was reclassified from “programs.

Note 12. Share-Based Compensation

The Company’s outstanding stock incentive awards have been granted under two incentive plans – the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan ~~(“2012 Plan”)~~ and the 2019 Stock Incentive Plan, ~~(“2019~~which was amended and restated in May 2023 (collectively, the “2019 Plan”). During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we granted options to purchase 385,500 shares of common stock under the 2019 Plan.

The Amended and Restated 2019 Stock Incentive Plan, which was approved by stockholders in May 2023, increased the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 2019 Plan from 3,000,000 to 6,000,000 and added the ability of the Company to award shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units subject to such conditions and restrictions as the Company may determine. In May 2023, 21,000 shares of restricted stock were issued to executive officers with a grant date fair value of $49.30 based on the market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The restricted stock will vest over five years, with 20% vesting on each anniversary of the date of grant. The restricted stock awards contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents during the vesting periods.

The weighted average fair value of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $10.56 and $11.92 per option, respectively. The fair value of each grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

~~Amended and Restated 2019 Stock Incentive Plan~~

On February 17, 2023, the Board of Directors approved an Amended and Restated 2019 Stock Incentive Plan, which was approved by the Company’s stockholders on May 5, 2023. The Amended and Restated 2019 Stock Incentive Plan increases the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance to 6,000,000 and adds the ability of the Company to award shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units subject to such conditions and restrictions as the Company may determine. In May 2023, 21,000 shares of restricted stock were issued to the named executive officers. The restricted stock will vest over five years, with 20% vesting on each anniversary of the date of grant. Effective with this amendment, shares available for future issuance as of May 5, 2023 totaled 4,035,836.

Note 13. Earnings Per Common Share

The weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period is used to calculate basic earnings per common share. Diluted earnings per common share assume the exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method, to the extent dilutive.

The following table summarizes the average number of common shares and the net income used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share ($ in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

Fixed rate debt. Fixed rate debt is classified as Level 2 and its fair value is based on quoted prices for similar instruments or calculated utilizing model derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable in active markets.

Variable rate debt. Variable rate debt is classified as Level 2 and the fair values of our borrowings under our revolving credit facility and other variable rate debt are reasonably estimated at their notional amounts due to the predominance of floating interest rates, which generally reflect market conditions.

Table of Contents

Mortgage and other notes receivable. The fair value of mortgage and other notes receivable is based on credit risk and discount rates that are not observable in the marketplace and therefore represents a Level 3 measurement.

Carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short-term nature and are classified as Level 1.

Note 15. Segment Reporting

We evaluate our business and make resource allocations on our two operating segments: Real Estate Investments and SHOP. Our Real Estate Investments segment includes leases, mortgages and other note investments in ILFs, ALFs, EFCs, SLCs, SNFs and a HOSP. Under the Real Estate Investments segment, we invest in senior housing and health care real estate through acquisition and financing of primarily single- tenant properties. Properties acquired are primarily leased under triple-net leases, and we are not involved in the management of the properties. The SHOP segment includes multi-tenant ILFs. The SHOP properties and related operations are controlled by the Company and are operated by property managers in exchange for a management fee. See Note 5 for further discussion.

We formed the SHOP segment effective April 1, 2022 upon termination of the triple-net lease for the legacy Holiday Retirement (“Holiday”) portfolio at which time the operations and properties of 15 ILFs were transferred into two separate ventures, as discussed further in Note 5. The results associated with the prior triple-net lease structure for these properties are included in the Real Estate Investments segment and the results from operating these SHOP properties after the transition are included in our SHOP segment. There is no impact to the prior year’s presentation.

Our chief operating decision maker evaluates performance based upon segment net operating income (“NOI”). We define NOI as total revenues, less tenant reimbursements and property operating expenses. We use NOI to make decisions about resource allocations and to assess the property level performance of our properties. There were no intersegment transactions for both the three and six months ended ~~March 31, 2023.~~June 30, 2023 and 2022. Capital expenditures for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 were approximately ~~$55.8~~$56.2 million for the Real Estate Investments segment and ~~$1.1~~$3.0 million for the SHOP segment. Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were approximately $7.0 million for the Real Estate Investments segment and $0.7 million for the SHOP segment.

Non-segment revenue consists mainly of other income. Non-segment assets consist of corporate assets including cash, deferred loan expenses and corporate offices and equipment among others. Non-property specific revenues and expenses are not allocated to individual segments in determining NOI.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies discussed in Note 2. The results of operations for all acquisitions described in Note 3 are included in our consolidated results of operations from the acquisition dates and are components of the appropriate segments.

Summary information for the reportable segments during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 is as follows ($ in thousands):

Executive Overview

National Health Investors, Inc., established in 1991 as a Maryland corporation, is a self-managed REIT specializing in sale leaseback, joint-venture, and 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 leases, mortgages and other notes receivable in independent living facilities (“ILFs”), assisted living facilities, entrance-fee communities, senior living campuses, skilled nursing facilities and a hospital. We fund our real estate investments primarily through: (1) operating cash flow, (2) debt, including note 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”)~~ILFs that provide residential living and other services for residents located throughout the United States that are operated on behalf of the Company by independent managers pursuant to the terms of separate management agreements. The third-party managers, or related parties of the managers, own equity interests in the respective ventures.

Real Estate Investment Portfolio

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we had investments in real estate and mortgage and other notes receivable involving ~~178~~177 facilities located in 31 states. These investments involve ~~105~~104 senior housing properties, 72 skilled nursing facilities and one hospital, excluding ~~ten~~five properties classified as assets held for sale. These investments consisted of properties with an original aggregate cost of approximately $2.4 billion, rented under primarily triple-net leases to 25 tenants, and ~~$234.9~~$238.9 million aggregate carrying value of mortgages and other notes receivable, excluding an allowance for expected credit losses of $15.0 million, due from 1315 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).

Table of Contents

Senior Housing – Need-Driven includes assisted living facilities (“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 ILFs 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 hospital (“HOSP”) 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 properties were transferred from a triple-net lease to two separate ventures comprising our SHOP segment. These ventures, in which NHI owns a majority interest, own the underlying independent living operations 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 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 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 ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, our SHOP segment consisted of 15 ILFs with a combined 1,734 units located in eight states.

For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, operators of facilities in our Real Estate Investments portfolio who provided 3% or more individually, and collectively 61% of our total revenues were (parent company, in alphabetical order): Bickford Senior Living (“Bickford”); Discovery Senior ~~Living;~~Living (“Discovery”); Encore Senior Living; Health Services Management; Life Care Services; NHC; Senior Living Communities (“Senior Living”); and The Ensign Group.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, our average effective annualized NOI for the Real Estate Investments reportable segment was ~~$9,901~~$9,577 per bed for SNFs, ~~$15,613~~$14,403 per unit for SLCs, ~~$16,608~~$14,664 per unit for ALFs, ~~$9,235~~$9,230 per unit for ILFs, ~~$21,020~~$20,623 per unit for EFCs and $63,899 per bed for the HOSP.

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. These 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.

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 ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, 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 generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Cash Basis Operators

We placed Bickford on cash basis of revenue recognition during the second quarter of 2022, 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. Cash rent received from Bickford for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 was ~~$7.8~~$8.1 million and $15.9 million, respectively, which excludes $2.5 million of rental income related to the reduction of pandemic-related rent deferrals recognized in connection with the acquisition of the ALF located in Chesapeake, Virginia discussed above.

We placed two additional operators on the cash basis of accounting for their leases during 2022. Rental income associated with these tenants totaled ~~$4.0~~$2.3 million and $6.5 million, for the three and six months ended ~~March 31, 2023.~~June 30, 2023, respectively.

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~~an operator’s method of acquiring the use of its assets (interest and rent), its non-cash expenses (depreciation and amortization), and 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 EFCs, 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

~~Table of Contents~~

receivable, and 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.

The results of our coverage ratio analysis are presented below on a trailing twelve-month basis, as of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022 (the most recent periods available).

1 NHC Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and displayed occupancies are on corporate-level. The occupancies are for the SNF portfolio only as can be seen in NHC’s public filings.

2 There are no longer any significant PPP funds included in any of the coverages above. SLC operates nine discretionary CCRC properties and one need driven assisted living community. Bickford proforma coverage atthrough the first quarter of 2023 represents coverage under the restructured ~~lease amount would be 1.39x for fourth quarter 2022.~~lease.

Coverage ratios may include amounts provided by state and federal government programs to support businesses, including health care providers, that have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. These funds were largely distributed in 2020 and 2021 and as such do not substantially impact the reported coverage ratios.

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. 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 we monitor economic and financial conditions. The metrics presented in the tables above give no effect to the presence of these security deposits.

Real Estate and Mortgage Write-downs

In addition to inflation risk and increased interest rates 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 ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 reflect impairment charges of our long-lived assets of approximately ~~$0.3~~$0.1 million ~~as a result of economic~~ and ~~financial factors.~~$0.5 million, respectively. 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 as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, that would require assessment for impairment.

Table of Contents

We have established a reserve for estimated credit losses of $15.0 million and a liability of $0.3 million for estimated credit losses on unfunded loan commitments as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023. 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, net of reserves, 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. Refer to ~~Note.~~Note 3 in the condensed consolidated financial statements for more information.

Financial highlights for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022 were as follows:

•Rental income recognized from our tenants increased $21.7 million, or 20.8%, primarily as a a reduction in pandemic-related rent concessions granted of approximately $10.7 million and new investments funded since June 2022. Included in rental income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 are write offs in the second quarter of 2022 of $18.1 million of straight-line rents receivable and $7.1 million of lease incentives related to placing Bickford on the cash basis of revenue recognition, partially offset by the recognition of the Holiday lease deposit and escrow of $15.7 million in prior year rental income.

•Resident fees and services less senior housing operating expenses increased $1.1 million or 39% primarily due to our SHOP activities commenced on April 1, 2022. See Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

•Interest income from mortgage and other notes decreased $4.2 million, or 28.5%, primarily due to paydowns on loans, net of new and existing loan fundings.

•Depreciation expense decreased $0.7 million or 1.9%, primarily as a result of property dispositions of approximately $82.1 million since June 2022.

•Interest expense increased $7.2 million, or 34.0%, as the result of increased interest rates and borrowings on the unsecured revolving credit facility, offset by repayments on term loans.

•Non-cash share-based compensation expense decreased $3.6 million, or 55.9%, due primarily to the reduced number of stock options granted in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the prior year’s grants.

•Legal expenses decreased $1.9 million primarily related to the Welltower, Inc. litigation and transition activities for the legacy Holiday portfolio in the prior year.

•Loan and realty (gains) losses decreased $28.9 million primarily as a result of impairment charges on 11 real estate properties of $28.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, offset by an increase in credit loss expense of $0.6 million compared to the same period in 2022.

•For more information on Gains from equity method investment reference Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

•Gains on sales of real estate, net decreased $0.7 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded $12.8 million in gains from dispositions of real estate assets as described under “Asset Dispositions” in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we sold 13 properties generating gains on sales of real estate totaling $13.5 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we had ~~$485.0~~$504.0 million available to draw on our revolving credit facility, ~~$13.9~~$17.4 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, and the potential to access $500.0 million through the issuance of common stock under the Company’s at-the-market (“ATM”) equity program.

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, operating expenses for the SHOP activities 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 ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, which includes new investments completed, 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 the disposition of 2417 senior housing properties for net proceeds of approximately ~~$165.8~~$109.2 million since ~~March~~June 2022, offset by reduced pandemic-related rent concessions granted byof approximately ~~$7.8~~$10.7 million.

Investing Activities – Net cash ~~used in~~provided by investing activities for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 was comprised primarily of ~~approximately $47.4 million of investments in mortgage and other notes and renovations and acquisitions of real estate, offset by the~~ proceeds from the sales of real estate of approximately ~~$10.2~~$48.6 million and the collection of principal on mortgage and other notes receivable of approximately ~~$7.2 million.~~$9.5 million, offset by $54.6 million of investments in mortgage and other notes receivable and renovations and acquisitions of real estate.

Financing Activities – Net cash used in financing activities for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 differs from the same period in 2022 primarily as a result of an approximately ~~$18.0~~$124.0 million increase in net borrowings, ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$2.0~~$8.8 million in ~~contributions~~proceeds from noncontrolling interests, a decrease of the repurchase of common stock of approximately $70.0 million, a decrease in debt issuance cost of ~~$4.5~~$1.9 million and a decrease in dividend payments approximately of ~~$2.2~~$4.4 million over the same period in 2022.

Debt Obligations

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we had outstanding debt of ~~$1.2~~$1.1 billion. Reference Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information about our outstanding indebtedness. Also, reference Part I, 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~~an 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 one of the following (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

Table of Contents

highest of (i) the 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~~one-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.

We have a $220.0 million term loan, maturing in September 2023 (“2023 Term Loan”) whose covenants align with provisions in the 2022 Credit Agreement and interest accrues on borrowings based on SOFR (plus a credit spread adjustment). We may also elect for the 2023 Term Loan to accrue interest at a base rate plus the applicable margin. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we repaid $20.0 million of the 2023 Term Loan.

As of March 31, 2023, the revolver and term loan bore interest at a rate of one-month Term SOFR (plus a 10 basis points (“bps”) spread adjustment) plus 105 bps and 125 bps, based on our debt ratings, or 5.95% and 6.15%, respectively. The facility fee was 25 bps per annum. At April 30, 2023, $201.0 million amount was outstanding under the revolving facility.

In January 2023, we repaid the $125.0 million of the private placement notes due January 2023 primarily with proceeds from the revolving credit facility.

The current SOFR spreads and facility fee for our revolving credit facility and the 2023 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
Debt Ratings Revolver Revolver Facility Fee $300m Term Loan
A+/A1 0.725% 0.125% 0.75%
A/A2 0.725% 0.125% 0.80%
A-/A3 0.725% 0.125% 0.85%
BBB+/Baa1 0.775% 0.150% 0.90%
BBB/Baa2 0.850% 0.200% 1.00%
BBB-/Baa3 1.050% 0.250% 1.25%
Lower than BBB-/Baa3 1.400% 0.300% 1.65%

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 ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, 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.

In the first quarter of 2023, we repaid $20.0 million of a term loan with a maturity of September 2023 (the “2023 Term Loan”). In June 2023, we entered into a two-year $200.0 million term loan agreement (the “2025 Term Loan”) bearing interest at a variable rate which is SOFR-based with a margin determined according to our credit ratings plus a 0.10% credit spread adjustment. The Company incurred approximately $2.7 million of deferred financing cost associated with this loan. The 2025 Term Loan proceeds were used to repay a portion of the remaining $220.0 million 2023 Term Loan balance. Accrued interest on borrowings was consistent with the new 2025 Term Loan. Upon repayment, we expensed approximately $0.1 million of unamortized loan costs associated with this loan which are included in “Loss on early retirement of debt”.

As of June 30, 2023, the revolver and term loan bore interest at a rate of one-month Term SOFR (plus a 10 basis points (“bps”) spread adjustment) plus 105 bps and 125 bps, based on our debt ratings, or 6.29% and 6.49%, respectively. The facility fee was 25 bps per annum. At July 31, 2023, $186.0 million was outstanding under the revolving facility.

Interest Rate Schedule

The current SOFR spreads and facility fee for our revolving credit facility and the 2025 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:


	SOFR Spread
Debt Ratings	Revolver	Revolver Facility Fee	$200m Term Loan
A+/A1	0.725%	0.125%	0.75%
A/A2	0.725%	0.125%	0.80%
A-/A3	0.725%	0.125%	0.85%
BBB+/Baa1	0.775%	0.150%	0.90%

BBB-/Baa3	1.050%	0.250%	1.25%
Lower than BBB-/Baa3	1.400%	0.300%	1.65%

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.

2031 Senior Notes - 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”). The 2031 Senior Notes are subject to affirmative and negative covenants, including financial ~~covenants. As of March 31, 2023,~~covenants with which we were in compliance ~~with all affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants for our 2031 Senior Notes borrowings.~~at June 30, 2023.

Debt Maturities - Reference Note 8 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 13, 2022 which affirmed the rating and revised the outlook to “Stable” 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 reaffirmed its rating most recently on April 10, 2023 and S&P Global reaffirmed its rating on November 14, 2022. Our unsecured

Table of Contents

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.

~~Table of Contents~~

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 ~~4.6x~~4.5x for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 (see our discussion under the heading Adjusted EBITDA below 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 4.6x for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 ($ in thousands):

Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information

The Company’s ~~$920.0~~$900.0 million bank credit facility, unsecured private placement notes with an aggregate principal amount of $275.0 million, and 2031 Senior Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company’s subsidiaries, except for certain excluded subsidiaries (“Guarantors”). The Guarantors are either owned or controlled by, or are affiliates, of the Company.

Equity

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 we had ~~43,388,742~~43,409,841 shares of common stock outstanding with a market value of ~~$2.2~~$2.3 billion. Equity on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet totaled $1.3 billion at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023.

Share Repurchase Plan - On February 17, 2023, our Board of Directors authorized a revised stock repurchase program (the “Revised Repurchase Plan”) pursuant to which we may purchase up to $160.0 million in shares of our issued and outstanding common stock. The Revised Repurchase Plan is effective for a period of one year and does not require us to repurchase any specific number of shares. The Revised Repurchase Plan may be suspended or discontinued at any time. 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 and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and shall be made in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations in effect. The timing and number of shares repurchased, if any, will depend on a variety of factors, including price, general market and economic conditions, alternative investment opportunities and other corporate considerations.

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.~~principles (“GAAP”). 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 2023 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, 2023 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 Internal Revenue Code Section 857(b)(8).

The following table summarizes dividends declared by the Board of Directors or paid during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022:

Shelf Registration Statement - We have an automatic shelf registration statement on file with the SEC that allows the Company to offer and sell to the public an unspecified amount of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants and or units at prices and on terms to be announced when and if such securities are offered. The details of any future offerings, along with the use of proceeds from any securities offered, will be described in a prospectus supplement or other offering materials, at the time of offering. Our shelf registration statement expires in March 2026.

Material Cash Requirements

We had approximately ~~$14.6~~$21.8 million in corporate cash and cash equivalents on hand and ~~$499.0~~$514.0 million in availability under our unsecured revolving credit facility as of ~~April 30,~~July 31, 2023. Our expected material cash requirements for the twelve months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2024 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~~(refer to the discussion under “Unsecured Bank Credit ~~Facility~~Facility” ~~discussion above,~~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.

During the first quarter of 2023, we worked with our primary treasury management bank to mitigate our uninsured deposit risk for our cash and cash equivalents through the use of multiple demand deposit and money market accounts that are managed by our primary treasury management bank.

Litigation

Our facilities are subject to claims and suits in the ordinary course of business. Our managers, tenants 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. 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.

FFO & FAD

The supplemental performance measures described below 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 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 activities as determined by GAAP as a measure of liquidity, and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.

~~Table of Contents~~

Funds From Operations - FFO

Our FFO per diluted common share for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 increased ~~$0.11~~$0.46 or ~~10.5%~~26.1% over the same period in 2022 due primarily to the write-offs in the second quarter of 2022 of Bickford’s straight-line rents receivable and unamortized lease incentives totaling approximately $25.4 million, a reduction of legal fees and pandemic-related rent concessions since ~~March 2022.~~June 2022, partially offset by the recognition of the Holiday lease deposit and escrow of $15.7 million in prior year rental income, increased interest expense in the second quarter of 2023 and the repurchase of common stock in the prior year. FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and applied by us, is calculated using the two-class method with net income allocated to common stockholders and unvested restricted stock by applying the respective weighted-average shares outstanding during each period. FFO begins with net income attributable to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP), ~~excluding~~and excludes gains (or losses) from sales of real estate property, impairments of real estate, and real estate depreciation and amortization ~~and~~ after ~~adjustments~~adjusting for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, if any. Diluted FFO attributable to common stockholders per share assumes the exercise of stock options and other potentially dilutive securities.

Our Normalized FFO per diluted common share for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 ~~increased $0.01~~decreased $0.21 or ~~0.9%~~8.9% over the same period in 2022. 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 ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 decreased ~~$4.9~~$16.6 million or ~~9.36%~~15.26% over the same period in 2022 due primarily to an increase in interest expense ~~an increase in payroll and benefits expenses~~ and property dispositions completed since ~~March~~June 2022. 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 and amortization of debt issuance costs. 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 investment such as straight-line lease expense and amortization of purchase accounting adjustments.

Normalized FAD is an important supplemental performance measure for a REIT and a useful measure of liquidity as an indicator of the ability to distribute dividends to stockholders. 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.

The following table reconciles ~~net~~“Net income attributable to common stockholders”, 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 investment 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.

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.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on approximately ~~$435.0~~$396.0 million of variable-rate indebtedness and on our mortgage and other notes receivable. The unused portion ($~~485.0~~504.0 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023) of our revolving credit facility, should it be drawn upon, is subject to variable rates.

Interest rate fluctuations will generally not affect our future earnings or cash flows on our fixed rate debt and loans receivable unless such instruments mature or are otherwise terminated. However, interest rate changes will affect the fair value of our fixed rate instruments. Conversely, changes in interest rates on variable rate debt and investments would change our future earnings and cash flows, but not significantly affect the fair value of those instruments. Assuming a 50 basis-point increase or decrease in the interest rate related to variable-rate debt, and assuming no change in the outstanding balance as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, net interest expense would increase or decrease annually by approximately ~~$2.2~~$2.0 million or $0.05 per common share on a diluted basis.

We have historically used derivative financial instruments in the normal course of business to mitigate interest rate risk. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. We currently have no derivative financial instruments but may engage in hedging strategies to manage our exposure to market risks in the future, depending on an analysis of the interest rate environment and the costs and risks of such strategies.

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to our debt ($ in thousands):

To highlight the sensitivity of our fixed rate debt to changes in interest rates, the following summary shows the effects on fair value (“FV”) assuming a parallel shift of 50 bps in market interest rates for a contract with similar maturities as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 ($ in thousands):

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, the fair value of our mortgage and other notes receivable, discounted for estimated changes in the risk-free rate, was approximately ~~$219.0~~$214.1 million. A 50 basis-point increase in market rates would decrease the estimated fair value of our mortgage and other loans by approximately ~~$2.2~~$2.5 million, while a 50 bps decrease in such rates would increase their estimated fair value by approximately ~~$3.5~~$2.5 million.

Inflation Risk

Our real estate leases generally provide for annual increases in contractual rent due based on a fixed amount or percentage or based on increases in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). Leases with increases based on CPI may contain a minimum increase or a cap on the maximum annual increase. Substantially all of our leases require the tenant to pay all operating expenses for the property, whether paid directly by the tenant or reimbursed to us. We believe that inflationary increases will be at least partially offset by the contractual rent increases and expense reimbursements described above.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Control and Procedures. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of management’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the ~~Securities and~~ Exchange ~~Act of 1934)~~Act) to ensure information required to be disclosed in our filings ~~under the Exchange Act,~~ is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and our CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving desired control objectives, and management is necessarily required to apply its judgment when evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of potential controls and procedures. Based upon the evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023.

There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

Our health care 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 related to our SHOP segment. While there may be lawsuits pending against us and certain of the owners and/or lessees of our 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.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

~~During the three months ended March 31, 2023, there~~There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of ~~National Health Investors, Inc.’s~~our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, except as amended and supplemented by the additional risk factors below.

Inflation and increased interest rates may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Although inflation has not materially impacted our operations in the recent past, inflation is at a 40-year high and beginning in March of 2022, the Federal Reserve began raising the federal funds rate in an effort to curb inflation. The Federal Reserve’s action, coupled with other macroeconomic factors, may trigger a recession in the United States and/or globally. Increased inflation and interest rates could have an adverse impact on our variable rate debt, our ability to borrow money, and general and administrative expenses, as these costs could increase at a rate higher than our rental and other revenue. Increases in the costs of owning and operating our properties due to inflation could reduce our net operating income and the value of an investment in us to the extent such increases are not reimbursed or paid by our tenants. If we are materially impacted by increasing inflation because, for example, inflationary increases in costs are not sufficiently offset by the contractual rent increases and operating expense reimbursement provisions or escalations in the leases with our tenants, our results of operations could be adversely affected. In addition, due to rising interest rates, we may experience restrictions in our liquidity based on certain financial covenant requirements, our inability to refinance maturing debt in part or in full as it comes due and higher debt service costs and reduced yields relative to cost of debt. If we are unable to find alternative credit arrangements or other funding in a high interest environment, our financial results may be negatively impacted.

Adverse developments affecting the financial services industry, including events or concerns involving liquidity, defaults, or non-performance by financial institutions, could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, or our prospects.

The funds in our accounts are held in banks or other financial institutions. Our cash held in non-interest bearing and interest-bearing accounts may periodically exceed any applicable Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. Should events, including limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance or other adverse developments occur with respect to the banks or other financial institutions that hold our funds, or that affect financial institutions or the financial services industry generally, or concerns or rumors about any events of these kinds or other similar risks, our liquidity may be adversely affected. For example, on March 10, 2023, the FDIC announced that Silicon Valley Bank had been closed by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation. Although we did not have any funds in Silicon Valley Bank or other institutions that have been closed, we cannot guarantee that the banks or other financial institutions that hold our funds will not experience similar issues.

In addition, investor concerns regarding the U.S. or international financial systems could result in less favorable commercial financing terms, including higher interest rates or costs and tighter financial and operating covenants, or systemic limitations on access to credit and liquidity sources, thereby making it more difficult for us to acquire financing on terms favorable to us in connection with a potential business combination, or at all, and could have material adverse impacts on our liquidity, our business, financial condition or results of operations, and our prospects.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On February 17, 2023, our Board of Directors authorized ~~a revised stock repurchase program~~ (the “Revised Repurchase Plan”) pursuant to which we may purchase up to $160.0 million in shares of our issued and outstanding common stock. The Revised

~~Table of Contents~~

Repurchase Plan is effective for a period of one year and does not require us to repurchase any specific number of shares. The Revised Repurchase Plan may

Table of Contents

be suspended or discontinued at any time. 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 Exchange Act and shall be made in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations in effect. The timing and number of shares repurchased, if any, will depend on a variety of factors, including price, general market and economic conditions, alternative investment opportunities and other corporate considerations. During the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, no common stock was repurchased.

Item 5. Other Information.

None of the Company’s directors or officers adopted, modified, or terminated a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or a non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023.
