Omega Announces Fourth Quarter 2019 Financial Results

Completed $896 Million in New Investments in Q4

Increased Quarterly Dividend by $0.01 to $0.67 in October

Provides 2020 Net Income and AFFO Guidance

HUNT VALLEY, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. (NYSE:OHI) (the “Company” or “Omega”) today announced its results of operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. The Company reported net income of $61.1 million or $0.27 per common share. The Company also reported NAREIT Funds From Operations (“NAREIT FFO”) for the quarter of $175.5 million or $0.77 per common share, Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO” or “Adjusted FFO”) of $178.3 million or $0.78 per common share, and Funds Available For Distribution (“FAD”) of $163.7 million.

NAREIT FFO, AFFO and FAD are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are useful in evaluating the performance of real estate investment trusts. For more information regarding these non-GAAP measures, see the “Funds From Operations” schedule below and the Company’s website at www.omegahealthcare.com.

GAAP NET INCOME

For the quarter ended December 31, 2019, the Company reported net income of $61.1 million, or $0.27 per common share, on revenues of $246.7 million. This compares to net income of $64.9 million, or $0.31 per common share, on revenues of $219.8 million, for the same period in 2018. The $3.8 million decrease is primarily due to an increase in impairments on real estate properties and a decrease in gains on assets sold. The decrease was primarily offset by incremental revenue from new investments completed in 2019.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company reported net income of $351.9 million, or $1.58 per common share, on revenues of $928.8 million. This compares to net income of $293.9 million, or $1.40 per common share, on revenues of $881.7 million, for the same period in 2018.

The year-to-date increase in net income compared to the prior year was primarily due to (i) $45.4 million in revenue from incremental new investments, (ii) a $30.9 million increase in gains on the sale of assets, (iii) a $10.6 million increase in net income from unconsolidated joint ventures related to gains on the sale of assets in Q2 2019 and (iv) a $3.8 million decrease in impairments on direct financing leases and real estate properties. The increase in net income was partially offset by (i) a $20.4 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense related to new investments, (ii) $6.7 million in increased interest expense, (iii) a $4.4 million increase in impairments for uncollectible accounts and (iv) $4.7 million of merger costs related to the May 2019 acquisition of MedEquities Realty Trust, Inc. (“MedEquities”).

CEO COMMENTS

Taylor Pickett, Omega’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The fourth quarter represented a strong conclusion to a very productive year. In December, we completed our acquisition of a 49% interest in a U.K. senior housing joint venture for approximately $90 million. In addition, we continue to source smaller, attractively priced acquisitions and new development projects with our existing tenants, while opportunistically divesting of certain non-core holdings.”

Mr. Pickett continued, “In 2019, we were able to accretively invest over $1.6 billion, furthering our relationship with quality existing tenants while selectively diversifying our operator base by leasing to additional proven and experienced operators.”

Mr. Pickett concluded, “We expect the momentum of 2019 to carry into 2020. We are excited for our Maplewood-run Carnegie Hill assisted living facility to begin accepting residents in the coming months. The new Medicare reimbursement model, the Patient Driven Payment Model or PDPM, has received positive feedback from operators. While it’s too early to make any definitive conclusions, when combined with the recent 2.4% increase in Medicare reimbursement and the promising demographic tailwinds, we believe our operators are well-positioned to weather the continued labor cost pressures and generate solid financial performance over time.”

$896 Million of New Investments in Q4 2019 – In the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company completed approximately $839 million of new investments and $57 million in capital renovations and new construction projects consisting of the following:

$735 Million Encore Portfolio Acquisition – On October 31, 2019, the Company completed its previously announced 60 facility acquisition for $735 million. Consideration consisted of approximately $346 million in cash and the assumption of approximately $389 million in mortgage loans guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”). The HUD loans have a blended “all-in” rate (interest rates and mortgage insurance premiums) of 3.66% per annum with maturities between September 2046 and January 2052.

The 60 facilities, consisting of 58 skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”) and two assisted living facilities (“ALFs”) representing 6,590 operating beds are located in Florida (37), North Carolina (8), Mississippi (6), Louisiana (4), Idaho (2), Kentucky (1), Missouri (1) and Montana (1). These facilities are leased to two operators within three triple net leases providing for approximately $64 million in 2020 annual contractual cash rent.

$93 Million Joint VentureOn December 18, 2019, the Company purchased from Healthpeak Properties, Inc. its 49% interest in a U.K. portfolio consisting of 67 senior housing facilities, as well as related development and working capital loans, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $93 million before transaction costs.

2020 GUIDANCE

The Company expects its 2020 annual net income to be between $1.58 and $1.66 per diluted share and its Adjusted FFO to be between $3.12 to $3.20 per diluted share.

Bob Stephenson, Omega’s CFO, commented, “Our 2020 guidance reflects the annual impact of $863 million of net 2019 fourth quarter acquisitions and asset sales, revenue from Maplewood related to the Carnegie Hill project, continuing Daybreak on a cash basis and the full impact of our 2019 capital markets activity.” Mr. Stephenson continued, “The $296 million in net proceeds from the physical settlement of our 7.5 million common shares equity forward agreement on December 27th adds additional capacity to our credit facility for potential acquisitions.”

The following table presents a reconciliation of Omega’s guidance regarding Adjusted FFO to projected GAAP earnings.

Note: All per share numbers rounded to 2 decimals.

 

The Company's Adjusted FFO guidance for 2020 includes (i) the annual impact of acquisitions completed in 2019, (ii) approximately $21 million of cash rent payments from Maplewood related to the Carnegie Hill project, (iii) over $82 million of planned capital renovation projects with 2020 estimated in-service dates or spending that we expect to generate cash in 2020, (iv) Daybreak continuing on a cash basis, (v) approximately $9.5 million to $10.5 million of quarterly G&A, and (vi) approximately $25 million to $35 million of quarterly equity issuances. It excludes additional acquisitions and asset sales, the impact of gains and losses from the sale of assets, certain revenue and expense items, interest refinancing expense, additional capital transactions, acquisition costs, and additional provisions for uncollectible accounts, if any.

The Company's guidance is based on several assumptions, which are subject to change and many of which are outside the Company’s control. If actual results vary from these assumptions, the Company's expectations may change. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the timing of collection of rental obligations from operators on a cash basis, the timing and completion of acquisitions, divestitures, capital and financing transactions, and variations in stock-based compensation expense may cause actual results to vary materially from our current expectations. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve its projected results. The Company may, from time to time, update its publicly announced Adjusted FFO guidance, but it is not obligated to do so.

(1) In 2019, the provision or charges for uncollectible rental revenue accounts (straight-line and contractual) are recorded through rental income.

 

NAREIT Funds From Operations (“NAREIT FFO”), Adjusted FFO and Funds Available for Distribution (“FAD”) are non-GAAP financial measures. For purposes of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation G, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that exclude amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the income statement, balance sheet or statement of cash flows (or equivalent statements) of the company, or include amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable financial measure so calculated and presented. As used in this press release, GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

The Company calculates and reports NAREIT FFO in accordance with the definition and interpretive guidelines issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), and consequently, NAREIT FFO is defined as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), adjusted for the effects of asset dispositions and certain non-cash items, primarily depreciation and amortization and impairments on real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and changes in the fair value of warrants. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. The Company believes that NAREIT FFO, Adjusted FFO and FAD are important supplemental measures of its operating performance. 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, while real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. The term funds from operations was designed by the real estate industry to address this issue. Funds from operations described herein is not necessarily comparable to funds from operations of other real estate investment trusts, or REITs, that do not use the same definition or implementation guidelines or interpret the standards differently from the Company.

Adjusted FFO is calculated as NAREIT FFO excluding the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation and certain revenue and expense items identified above. FAD is calculated as Adjusted FFO less non-cash interest expense and non-cash revenue, such as straight-line rent. The Company believes these measures provide an enhanced measure of the operating performance of the Company’s core portfolio as a REIT. The Company’s computation of Adjusted FFO and FAD may not be comparable to the NAREIT definition of funds from operations or to similar measures reported by other REITs, but the Company believes that they are appropriate measures for this Company.

The Company uses these non-GAAP measures among the criteria to measure the operating performance of its business. The Company also uses FAD among the performance metrics for performance-based compensation of officers. The Company further believes that by excluding the effect of depreciation, amortization, impairments on real estate assets and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs and which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance, funds from operations can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between other REITs. The Company offers these measures to assist the users of its financial statements in analyzing its operating performance and not as measures of liquidity or cash flow. These non-GAAP measures are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as measures of liquidity, alternatives to net income or indicators of any other performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Investors and potential investors in the Company’s securities should not rely on these non-GAAP measures as substitutes for any GAAP measure, including net income.
