The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for a complete set of annual audited financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. In the opinion of management, all adjustments which are of a normal and recurring nature and considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. All intercompany transactions and account balances within the Company have been eliminated.

The election of the package of practical expedients discussed above and the optional transition method allowed the Company not to reassess:

The Company applied the package of practical expedients consistently to all leases (i.e., in whichregardless of whether the Company was the lessee or a lessor) that commenced before January 1, 2019. The election of this package permits the Company to “run off” its leases that commenced before January 1, 2019, for the remainder of their lease terms and to apply the new lease ASUs to leases commencing or modified after January 1, 2019.

On January 1, 2019, the Company elected the single component practical expedient, which allows a lessor, by class of underlying asset, not to allocate the total consideration to the lease and nonleasenon-lease components based on their relative stand-alone selling prices. This single component practical expedient requires the Company to account for the lease component and nonleasenon-lease component(s) associated with that lease as a single component if (i) the timing and pattern of transfer of the lease component and the nonleasenon-lease component(s) associated with it are the same and (ii) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if it were accounted for separately. If the Company determines that the lease component is the predominant component, the Company accounts for the single component as an operating lease in accordance with the new lease ASUs. Conversely, the Company is required to account for the combined component under the new revenue recognition standard if the Company determines that the nonleasenon-lease component is the predominant component. As a result of this assessment, rental revenues and tenant recoveries from the lease of real estate assets that qualify for this expedient are accounted for as a single component under the new lease ASUs, with tenant recoveries primarily as variable consideration. Tenant recoveries that do not qualify for the single component practical expedient and are considered nonleasenon-lease components are accounted for under the revenue recognition standard. The components of the Company’s operating leases qualify for the single component presentation.

For the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2018, the Company recognized tenant recoveries for real estate taxes of $3.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively, which were classified as tenant reimbursements on the Company’s condensed consolidated income statements. Prior to the adoption of Accounting StandardStandards Codification (“ASC”) 842, the Company recognized tenant recoveries as tenant reimbursement revenues regardless of whether the third party was paid by the lessor or lessee. Effective January 1, 2019, such tenant recoveries are recognized to the extent that the Company pays the third party directly and classified as rental income on

Under the new lease ASUs, the Company recognizes rentalCompany’s assessment of collectability of its tenant receivables includes a binary assessment of whether or not the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement are probable of collection. For such amounts that are deemed probable of collection, revenue including rental abatements, lease incentives and contractual fixed increases attributablecontinues to operating leases, if any, from tenants under lease arrangements with minimum fixed and determinable increasesbe recorded on a straight-line basis over the non-cancellable termlease term. For such amounts that are deemed not probable of collection, revenue is recorded as the lesser of (i) the amount which would be recognized on a straight-line basis or (ii) cash that has been received from the tenant, with any tenant and deferred rent receivable balances charged as a direct write-off against rental income in the period of the related leases whenchange in the collectability is probable.determination. Such write-offs are recorded as increases or decreases through rental income on the Company’s condensed consolidated income statements. For the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2019, the Company did not recognize any adjustments to rental income related to recognized rental income in the prior periods.

As of March 31,June 30, 2019, the remaining contractual payments under the Company’s lease liability related to its ground and office lease arrangements for which it is the lessee aggregatedtotaled approximately $0.1 million.$1.0 million with a weighted average remaining lease term of 73 years. While these ground leases are subject to this ASU applicationthe new lease ASUs effective January 1, 2019, the lease liability and corresponding right-of-use asset and lease expense do not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In addition, for such asset acquisitions, no goodwill is recognized and third party transaction costs are capitalized. The Company allocates the acquisition costs to the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets/liabilities and assumed liabilities on a relative fair value basis. The Company assesses fair value based on available market information, such as capitalization and discount rates, comparable sale transactions and relevant per square foot or unit cost information. A real estate asset’s fair value may be determined utilizing cash flow projections that incorporate such market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, as well as market and economic conditions. The fair value of tangible assets of an acquired property is based on the value of the property as if it is vacant.

If the Company decides to sell real estate properties, it evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amounts of the assets. If the evaluation indicates that the carrying value is not recoverable from estimated net sales proceeds, the property is written down to estimated fair value less costs to sell.

In the event of impairment, the fair value of the real estate investment is determined by market research, which includes valuing the property in its current use as well as other alternative uses, and involves significant judgment. Management’s estimates of cash flows and fair values of the properties are based on current market conditions and consider matters such as rental rates and occupancies for comparable properties, recent sales data for comparable properties, and, where applicable, contracts or the results of negotiations with purchasers or prospective purchasers. The Company’s ability to accurately estimate future cash flows and estimate and allocate fair values impacts the timing and recognition of impairments. While the Company believes its assumptions are reasonable, changes in these assumptions may have a material impact on financial results.

The obligations under the Ensign Master Leases are guaranteed by Ensign. A default by any subsidiary of Ensign with regard to any facility leased pursuant to an Ensign Master Lease will result in a default under all of the Ensign Master Leases. As of March 31,June 30, 2019, annualized rental revenues from the Ensign Master Leases were $59.8$61.0 million and are escalated annually by an amount equal to the product of (1) the lesser of the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) (but not less than zero) or 2.5%, and (2) the prior year’s rent. In addition to rent, the subsidiaries of Ensign that are tenants under the Ensign Master Leases are solely responsible for the costs related to the leased properties (including property taxes, insurance, and maintenance and repair costs).

As of March 31,June 30, 2019, 106120 of the Company’s 202216 facilities were leased to various other operators under triple-net leases. All of these leases contain annual escalators based on CPI, some of which are subject to a cap, or fixed rent escalators.

At any time on or before June 1, 2020, up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes may be redeemed with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings if at least 60% of the originally issued aggregate principal amount of the Notes remains outstanding. In such case, the redemption price will be equal to 105.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. If certain changes of control of the Company occur, holders of the Notes will have the right to require the Issuers to repurchase their Notes at 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the repurchase date.
