Biggest changeAdverse U.S. and global market, economic and political conditions, including dislocations and volatility in the credit markets, elevated levels of inflation and interest rates, and general global economic uncertainty, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition as a result of the following potential consequences, among others: reduced values of our properties may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices, or at all, or to obtain debt financing secured by our properties and may reduce the availability of unsecured loans; and our ability to obtain financing on terms and conditions that we find acceptable, or at all, may be limited, which could reduce our ability to pursue acquisition and redevelopment opportunities, refinance existing debt, reduce our returns from our acquisition and redevelopment activities, reduce our ability to sell properties or re-tenant properties at favorable terms, and increase our future interest expense.

Our indebtedness could have significant effects on our business, including by: requiring us to use a substantial portion (or all) of our cash flow from operations to service our indebtedness, which would reduce available cash flow to fund working capital, development projects, and other general corporate purposes, as well as cash distributions; forcing us to dispose of one or more of our properties, possibly on disadvantageous terms, to make payments on our debt; reducing our ability to extend existing bank debt or refinance debt on favorable terms; increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; restricting us from making strategic acquisitions or exploiting other business opportunities; and placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt.

Our future borrowings under our loan facilities may bear interest at variable rates in addition to the $0.3 billion in variable interest rate debt that we had outstanding as of February 28, 2025. If interest rates increase significantly, our operating results would decline along with the cash available for distributions to our stockholders.
Future borrowings under our loan facilities may bear interest at variable rates in addition to the $0.6 billion in variable interest rate debt that we had outstanding as of February 23, 2026. If interest rates increase significantly, our operating results would decline along with the cash available for distributions to our stockholders.
As lessee under ground leases, we are exposed to the possibility of losing the property upon termination, or an earlier breach by us, which could be a negative impact to our financial condition. Ground leases may also restrict our use of facilities, which may limit our flexibility in renting the facility and may impede our ability to sell the property.

While FFO and normalized FFO are relevant and widely used supplemental measures of operating and financial performance of REITs, they should not be viewed as a substitute measure of our operating performance since the measures do not reflect either depreciation and amortization costs or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs (if any are not paid by our tenants) to maintain the operating performance of our properties, which can be significant economic costs that could materially impact our results of operations.

In making estimates of fair value for purposes of allocating purchase prices of acquired real estate, we may utilize a number of sources, including available real estate broker data, independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property, internal data from previous acquisitions or developments, and other market data, including market comparables for significant assumptions such as market rental, capitalization, and discount rates.

Our accounting estimates include the following: Credit Losses: Losses from Rent Receivables : For our leases, we review tenant provided financial data and monitor the performance of our tenants in areas generally consisting of: admission levels and surgery/procedure volumes by type; current operating margins; ratio of our tenant's operating margins both to facility rent and to facility rent plus other fixed costs; trends in revenue, cash collections, patient mix; and the effect of evolving healthcare regulations, adverse economic and political conditions, such as rising inflation and interest rates, and other events ongoing on a tenant's profitability and liquidity.

Although it represents less than 1% of our total assets at December 31, 2024, we consider our lending business an important element of our overall business strategy for two primary reasons: (1) it provides opportunities to make income-earning investments that could yield attractive risk-adjusted returns in an industry in which our management has expertise, and (2) by making debt capital available to certain qualified operators, we believe we create a competitive advantage for our company over other buyers of, and financing sources for, healthcare facilities.

These decreases were partially offset by approximately $1 million from the increase in CPI above the lease contractual minimum escalations.
