PART I.
Item 1. Business
Overview
AdCare Health Systems, Inc. ("AdCare"), through its subsidiaries (together, the "Company" or "we"), own, operate, and manage for third-parties skilled nursing facilities and assisted living facilities in the states of Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, and South Carolina. As of December 31, 2014, the Company operates or manages 32 facilities comprised of 29 skilled nursing facilities, two assisted living facilities and one independent living/senior housing facility totaling approximately 3,600 beds. The Company's facilities provide a range of health care services to patients and residents, including, but not limited to, skilled nursing and assisted living services, social services, various therapy services, and other rehabilitative and healthcare services for both long-term residents and short-stay patients. As of December 31, 2014, of the 32 facilities, the Company owned and operated 22 facilities, leased and operated six facilities, and managed four facilities for third-parties.
As of December 31, 2014, we also have leased three owned and subleased five leased skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities to local third-party operators in the states of Alabama and Georgia. The patient care revenue, related cost of services, and facility rental expense prior to the commencement of subleasing are classified as discontinued operations.
On July 23, 2014, we announced that the Board of Directors (the "Board") had approved a strategic plan to transition the Company to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions, the Company is in the process of transitioning to third-parties the operations of the Company’s currently owned and operated healthcare facilities, which are principally skilled nursing facilities. In furtherance of this strategic plan, the Company is now focused on the ownership, acquisition and leasing of healthcare related properties.
On October 29, 2014 , the Company entered into separate agreements with third-party operators to: (i) to lease one of our facilities; (ii) to sublease three of our facilities; and (iii) to sub-sublease one of our facilities. All of the facilities are located in Ohio and the leases and subleases will commence on the first day of the month after lessees' receipt of: (a) all licenses and other approvals from the State of Ohio to operate the facility, and (b) approval of the lease by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD").
The Company entered into additional leasing agreements subsequent to December 31, 2014. See Note 20 - Subsequent Events, in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" for details of the agreements.
Our principal executive offices are located at 1145 Hembree Road, Roswell, GA 30076, and our telephone number is (678) 869-5116. We maintain a website at www.adcarehealth.com.
Company History
AdCare is a Georgia corporation. We were incorporated in Ohio on August 14, 1991, under the name Passport Retirement, Inc. In 1995, we acquired substantially all of the assets and liabilities of AdCare Health Systems, Inc. and changed our name to AdCare Health Systems, Inc. On December 12, 2013, AdCare changed its state of incorporation from the State of Ohio to the State of Georgia.
The Transition to a Facilities Holding Company and the Additional Leasing Transactions
The Transition
We intend to effect the Company’s transition from an owner and operator of healthcare properties to lessor and sublessor of healthcare properties through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions (the "Transition"). Specifically, in order to effect such transition, we seek to:
• lease to third-party operators the healthcare properties which we currently own and operate, consisting of 20 skilled nursing facilities with a total of 2,028 operational beds and two assisted living facilities with a total of 112 operational units;
• sublease to third-party operators the healthcare properties which we do not own but currently lease and operate, consisting of six skilled nursing facilities with a total of 872 operational beds;
• terminate one of the management agreements under which we manage for a third party, a skilled nursing facility with a total of 261 operational beds; (as of January 1, 2015, this management agreement has been terminated);
• continue in effect the one remaining management agreement to manage two skilled nursing facilities with a total of 249 operational beds and one independent living facility with a total of 83 operational units.
Through the transition, the Company will take on the characteristics and general structure of a Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT") while proceeding with the intent toward the eventual conversion to a REIT. The Company's net operating losses will be available to offset future tax liabilities after the transition.
In connection with the transition, we intend to reduce our financial leverage over time and adjust our capital structure by repaying certain of our corporate level indebtedness prior to maturity, renegotiating and restructuring certain of our other corporate level indebtedness to reduce the cost of capital, and refinancing our facility level mortgage indebtedness with lower-cost financing guaranteed by HUD.
Terms of Leases/Subleases
We seek to lease our currently-owned healthcare properties, and sublease our currently-leased healthcare properties, on a triple net basis, meaning that the lessee (i.e., the new third-party operator of the property) is obligated under the lease or sublease, as applicable, for all liabilities of the property in respect to insurance, taxes and facility maintenance, as well as the lease or sublease payments, as applicable. These leases are generally long-term in nature with renewal options and annual escalation clauses.
Acquisitions and Dispositions
The Company had one skilled nursing facility entity classified as held for sale and one variable interest entity classified as held for sale at December 31, 2014 as described further below.
Acquisitions
The Company had no acquisitions during the year ended December 31, 2014.
Dispositions
The Company entered into a sublease arrangement in the fourth quarter of 2012 to exit the operations of a skilled nursing facility in Jeffersonville, Georgia.
On February 28, 2013, the Company completed the sale of the facility known as Lincoln Lodge Retirement Residence and used the proceeds to pay the principal balance of the mortgage note with respect to the facility of $1.9 million. The Company recognized a gain on the sale of approximately $0.1 million and cash proceeds, net of costs and debt payoff, of $0.6 million.
On June 11, 2013, the Company completed the sale of its former Springfield, Ohio corporate office building which was sold for the approximate net book value. The Company used the proceeds to pay off the principal balance of the mortgage note with respect to the building of approximately $0.1 million.
On June 12, 2013, the Company entered into two sublease agreements to exit the operations of two skilled nursing facilities located in Tybee Island, Georgia effective June 30, 2013. On December 18, 2013, a sales listing agreement was executed for the 105-bed assisted living facility located in Hoover, Alabama, which is owned by a consolidated variable interest entity. The two skilled nursing facilities located in Tybee Island, Georgia and the assisted living facility located in Hoover, Alabama are reported as discontinued operations (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data").
On March 31, 2014, the Company entered into a representation agreement to sell a 102-bed skilled nursing facility located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to exit the operations.
On July 1, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement effective July 1, 2014 to sublease a 52-bed skilled nursing facility located in Thomasville, Georgia to a local nursing home operator.
On September 22, 2014, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company entered into separate lease agreements to lease a 182-bed skilled nursing facility located in Attalla, Alabama and a 124-bed skilled nursing facility located in Glencoe, Alabama to a local nursing home operator that commenced on December 1, 2014.
On September 30, 2014, the lease agreement to operate a 90-bed skilled nursing facility located in Cassville, Missouri expired. The Company elected not to renew the lease agreement consistent with its strategic plan to transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company.
On October 22, 2014, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company entered into separate sublease agreements that commenced on November 1, 2014 to sublease a 130-bed skilled nursing facility located in Dublin, Georgia and an 86-bed skilled nursing facility located in Lumber City, Georgia to a local nursing home operator.
On October 29, 2014, the Company entered into separate agreements with third-party operators to: (i) lease one of our facilities, (ii) sublease three of our facilities, and (iii) sub-sublease one of our facilities. All of the facilities are located in Ohio and the leases and subleases will commence on the first day of the month after lessees' receipt of all licenses and other approvals from the State of Ohio to operate the facility and approval of the lease by HUD.
The results of operations and cash flows for the Jeffersonville, Georgia skilled nursing facility, the two skilled nursing facilities in Tybee Island, Georgia, the assisted living facility in Hoover, Alabama, the skilled nursing facility in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the skilled nursing facility in Thomasville, Georgia, the two skilled nursing facilities in Attalla, Alabama and Glencoe, Alabama, the skilled nursing facility in Cassville, Missouri, and the two skilled nursing facilities in Dublin, Georgia and Lumber City, Georgia are reported as discontinued operations in 2014 and 2013.

Industry Trends
Consistent with our plan to transition the Company to a healthcare property holding and leasing company, the healthcare REIT industry has trended toward owning and triple net-leasing healthcare real estate assets. Specifically, the skilled nursing segment of this industry has evolved to meet the growing demand for post-acute and custodial healthcare services generated by an aging population, increasing life expectancies and the trend toward shifting of patient care to lower cost settings. The growth of the senior population in the United States continues to increase healthcare costs, often faster than the available funding from government-sponsored healthcare programs. In response, federal and state governments have adopted cost-containment measures that encourage the treatment of patients in more cost-effective settings, such as skilled nursing facilities, for which the staffing requirements and associated costs are often significantly lower than acute care hospitals, inpatient rehabilitation facilities and other post-acute care settings. As a result, skilled nursing facilities are generally serving a larger population of higher acuity patients than in the past. The skilled nursing industry is large, highly fragmented, and characterized predominantly by numerous local and regional providers. Based on a decrease in the number of skilled nursing facilities over the past few years, we expect that the supply and demand balance in the skilled nursing industry will continue to improve due to the shift of patient care to lower cost settings, an aging population and increasing life expectancies.
We also anticipate that, as life expectancy continues to increase in the United States, the overall demand for skilled nursing services will increase. At present, the primary market demographic for skilled nursing services is primarily individuals age 75 and older. According to the 2010 U.S. Census, there were over 40 million people in the United States in 2010 that are over 65 years old. The 2010 U.S. Census estimates this group is one of the fastest growing segments of the United States population and is expected to more than double between 2000 and 2030.
We believe the skilled nursing industry has been and will continue to be impacted by several other trends. The use of long-term care insurance is increasing among seniors as a means of planning for the costs of skilled nursing services. In addition, as a result of increased mobility in society, reduction of average family size, and the increased number of two-wage earner couples, more seniors are looking for alternatives outside their own family for their care.
Medicaid and Medicare Reimbursement
Rising healthcare costs due to a variety of factors, including an aging population and increasing life expectancies, has generated growing demand for post-acute healthcare services in recent years. In an effort to mitigate the cost of providing healthcare benefits, third-party payors, including Medicaid, Medicare, managed care providers, insurance companies and others, have increasingly encouraged the treatment of patients in lower-cost care settings. As a result, in recent years skilled nursing facilities, which typically have significantly lower cost structures than acute care hospitals and certain other post-acute care settings, have generally been serving larger populations of higher-acuity patients than in the past. However, Medicaid and Medicare reimbursement rates are subject to change from time to time and reduction in rates could materially and adversely impact our revenue.
Revenue derived directly or indirectly from Medicare reimbursement has historically comprised a substantial portion of our consolidated revenue. Medicare reimbursement rates and procedures are subject to change from time to time, which could materially impact our revenue. Medicare reimburses our skilled nursing facilities under a prospective payment system (“PPS”) for certain inpatient covered services. Under the PPS, facilities are paid a predetermined amount per patient, per day, based on the anticipated costs of treating patients. The amount to be paid is determined by classifying each patient into a resource utilization group (“RUG”) category that is based upon each patient’s acuity level. In October 2010, the number of RUG categories was expanded from 53 to 66 as part of the implementation of the RUGs IV system and the introduction of a revised and substantially expanded patient assessment tool called the Minimum Data Set, Version 3.0. Should future changes in skilled nursing facility payments reduce rates or increase the standards for reaching certain reimbursement levels, our Medicare
revenues could be reduced and/or our costs to provide those services could increase, with a corresponding adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
On July 31, 2014, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS") issued its final rule outlining fiscal year 2015 Medicare payment rates for skilled nursing facilities. CMS estimates that aggregate payments to skilled nursing facilities will increase by $750 million, or 2% for fiscal year 2015, relative to payments in 2014. The estimated increase reflects a 2.5% market basket increase, reduced by the 0.5% multi-factor productivity (MFP) adjustment required by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA).
On July 31, 2013, CMS issued its final rule outlining fiscal year 2014 Medicare payment rates for skilled nursing facilities. CMS estimated that aggregate payments to skilled nursing facilities would increase by $470 million, or 1.3% for fiscal year 2014, relative to payments in 2013. This estimated increase is attributable to a 2.3% market basket increase, reduced by the 0.5% forecast error correction and further reduced by the 0.5% multi-factor productivity adjustment (MFP) as required by PPACA. The forecast error correction is applied when the difference between the actual and projected market basket percentage change for the most recent available fiscal year exceeds the 0.5% threshold. In its 2014 report to Congress, the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission recommended eliminating the market basket update and reducing payments through the SNF prospective payments system.
On July 27, 2012, CMS announced a final rule updating Medicare skilled nursing facility PPS payments in fiscal year 2013. The update, a 1.8% or $670 million increase, reflected a 2.5% market basket increase, reduced by a 0.7% MFP adjustment mandated by the PPACA. This increase was offset by the 2% sequestration reduction, which became effective April 1, 2013.
On April 1, 2014, the President signed into law the Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014, which averted a 24% cut in Medicare payments to physicians and other Part B providers until March 31, 2015. In addition, this law maintains the 0.5% update for such services through December 31, 2014 and provides a 0.0% update to the 2015 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS) through March 31, 2015. Among other things, this law provides the framework for implementation of a value-based purchasing program for skilled nursing facilities. Under this legislation HHS is required to develop by October 1, 2016 measures and performance standards regarding preventable hospital readmission from skilled nursing facilities. Beginning October 1, 2018, HHS will withhold 2% of Medicare payments to all skilled nursing facilities and distribute this pool of payment to skilled nursing facilities as incentive payments for preventing readmissions to hospitals.
The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 was signed into law on February 22, 2012, extending the Medicare Part B outpatient therapy cap exceptions process through December 31, 2012. The statutory Medicare Part B outpatient therapy cap for occupational therapy (“OT”) was $1,880 for 2012, and the combined cap for physical therapy (“PT”) and speech-language pathology services (“SLP”) was also $1,880 for 2012. This is the annual per beneficiary therapy cap amount determined for each calendar year. Similar to the therapy cap, Congress established a threshold of $3,700 for PT and SLP services combined and another threshold of $3,700 for OT services. All therapy services rendered above the $3,700 amount are subject to manual medical review and may be denied unless pre-approved by the provider’s Medicare Administrative Contractor. The law requires an exceptions process to the therapy cap that allows providers to receive payment from Medicare for medically necessary therapy services above the therapy cap amount. Beginning October 1, 2012, some therapy providers may submit requests for exceptions (pre-approval for up to 20 therapy treatment days for beneficiaries at or above the $3,700 threshold) to avoid denial of claims for services above the threshold amount. The $3,700 figure is the defined threshold that triggers the provision for an exception request. Prior to October 1, 2012, there was no provision for an exception request when the threshold was exceeded.
On January 2, 2013, the President signed the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 into law. This statute creates a Commission of Long Term Care, the goal of which is to develop a plan for the establishment, implementation, and financing of a comprehensive, coordinated, and high-quality system that ensures the availability of recommendations from this commission may have an impact on coverage and payment for our services.
Should future changes in PPS include further reduced rates or increased standards for reaching certain reimbursement levels (including as a result of automatic cuts tied to federal deficit cut efforts or otherwise), our Medicare revenues derived from our skilled nursing facilities) could be reduced, with a corresponding adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operation.We also derive a substantial portion of our consolidated revenue from Medicaid reimbursement, primarily through our skilled nursing business. Medicaid programs are administered by the applicable states and financed by both state and federal funds. Medicaid spending nationally has increased significantly in recent years, becoming an increasingly significant component of state budgets. This, combined with slower state revenue growth and other state budget demands, has led both the federal government and state governments to institute measures aimed at controlling the growth of Medicaid spending (and in some instances reducing it).
Historically, adjustments to reimbursement under Medicare and Medicaid have had a significant effect on our revenue and results of operations. Recently enacted, pending and proposed legislation and administrative rulemaking at the federal and state levels could have similar effects on our business. Efforts to impose reduced reimbursement rates, greater discounts and more stringent cost controls by government and other payors are expected to continue for the foreseeable future and could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, any delay or default by the federal or state governments in making Medicare and/or Medicaid reimbursement payments could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Regulatory Matters. Laws and regulations governing Federal Medicare and state Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation. Compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future governmental review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action including fines, penalties, and exclusion from certain governmental programs.
The regulatory environment within the skilled nursing industry continues to intensify in the amount and type of laws and regulations affecting it. In addition to this changing regulatory environment, federal, state and local officials are increasingly focusing their efforts on the enforcement of these laws. In order to operate our business, we must comply with federal, state and local laws relating to licensure, delivery and adequacy of medical care, equipment, personnel, operating policies, fire prevention, rate-setting, billing and reimbursement, building codes and environmental protection. Additionally, we must also adhere to the anti-kickback laws, physician referral laws, and safety and health standards set by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Changes in the laws or new interpretations of existing laws may have an adverse impact on our methods and costs of doing business.
Our operations are also subject to various regulations and licensing requirements promulgated by state and local health and social service agencies and other regulatory authorities. Requirements vary from state to state and these requirements can affect, among other things, personnel education and training, patient and personnel records, services, staffing levels, monitoring of patient wellness, patient furnishings, housekeeping services, dietary requirements, emergency plans and procedures, certification and licensing of staff prior to beginning employment, and patient rights.
On October 6, 2014, the President signed into law the Improving Medicare Post-Acute Care Transformation Act of 2014. This legislation requires post-acute care providers, such as skilled nursing facilities, to report standardized patient assessment data, data on quality measures, and data on resource use and other measures, and directs HHS to provide feedback reports to providers and arrange for public reporting of provider performance on the reported data. Post-acute care providers that do not report such data will have their Medicare payments reduced.
CMS also recently announced a proposed post-acute care provider initiative. CMS proposes to expand and strengthen the Five Star Quality Rating System for nursing homes to improve consumer information about quality measures at individual nursing homes.
In December 2010, the Office of Inspector General released a report entitled “Questionable Billing by Skilled Nursing Facilities.” The report examined the billing practices of skilled nursing facilities based on Medicare Part A claims from 2006 to 2008 and found, among other things, that for-profit skilled nursing facilities were more likely to bill for higher paying therapy RUGs, particularly in the ultra-high therapy categories, than government and not-for-profit operators. It also found that for-profit skilled nursing facilities showed a higher incidence of patients using RUGs with higher activities of daily living (ADL) scores, and had a “long” average length of stay among Part A beneficiaries, compared to their government and not-for-profit counterparts. The OIG recommended that CMS vigilantly monitor overall payments to skilled nursing facilities, adjust RUG rates annually, change the method for determining how much therapy is needed to ensure appropriate payments and conduct additional reviews for skilled nursing operators that exceed certain thresholds for higher paying therapy RUGs. CMS concurred with and agreed to take action on three of the four recommendations, declining only to change the methodology for assessing a patient's therapy needs. The OIG issued a separate memorandum to CMS listing 384 specific facilities that the OIG had identified as being in the top one percent for use of ultra-high therapy, RUGs with high ADL scores, or “long” average lengths of stay, and CMS agreed to forward the list to the appropriate fiscal intermediaries or other contractors for follow up. Although we believe our billing practices are consistent with applicable law and CMS requirements, we cannot predict the extent to which the OIG's recommendations to CMS will be implemented and, what effect, if any, such proposals would have on us. These efforts may place us under greater scrutiny with the OIG, CMS, our fiscal intermediaries, recovery audit contractors and others, as well as other government agencies, unions, advocacy groups and others who seek to pursue their own mandates and agendas. In its fiscal year 2014 work plan, OIG specifically stated that it will continue to study and report on questionable Part A and Part B billing practices among skilled nursing facilities. Also, according to its 2015 work plan, OIG has identified reducing waste in Medicare Parts A and ensuring quality, including in nursing home care as top management challenges facing OIG. Efforts by officials and others to make or advocate for any increase in regulatory monitoring and oversight, adversely change RUG rates, revise methodologies for assessing and treating patients, or conduct more frequent or
intense reviews of our treatment and billing practices, could reduce our reimbursement, increase our costs of doing business and otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Health Reform Legislation. Although the federal government has delayed the employer mandate provision of the PPACA, October 1, 2013 was the deadline for employers to provide a notice of health care coverage options to their employees. Generally, the notice informs the employee of the new health insurance marketplace, a description of services, how to contact the marketplace and other additional required information. Employers covered by the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) must distribute the required notice to all employees, regardless of plan enrollment status or whether the employees are full or part time. By October 1, 2013, all employers covered by the FLSA were required to provide current employees with the notice. Starting October 1, 2013, each new hire must also receive the notice within 14 days of the employee’s start date.
On December 26, 2013, the President signed into law the Pathway for SGR (Medicare Sustainable Growth Rate) Reform Act of 2013. This new law prevents a scheduled payment reduction for physicians and other practitioners who treat Medicare patients from taking effect on January 1, 2014, as was scheduled, and provides for a 0.5 percent increase for services through March 31, 2014.
HIPAA. On January 25, 2013, the HHS promulgated new HIPAA privacy, security, and enforcement regulations, which increase significantly the penalties and enforcement practices of HHS regarding HIPAA violations. The new HIPAA regulations are effective as of March 26, 2013, and compliance was required by September 23, 2013.
Revenue Sources
Total Revenue by Payor Sources. We derive revenue primarily from the Medicaid and Medicare programs, private pay patients and managed care payors. Medicaid typically covers patients that require standard custodial services and provides reimbursement rates that are generally lower than rates earned from other sources. We monitor our patient mix, which is the percentage of non-Medicaid revenue from each of our facilities, to measure the level received from each payor across each of our business units.
Medicaid. Medicaid is a state-administered program financed by state funds and matching federal funds. Medicaid programs are administered by the states and their political subdivisions. Medicaid programs generally provide health benefits for qualifying individuals and may supplement Medicare benefits for financially needy persons aged 65 and older. Medicaid reimbursement formulas are established by each state with the approval of the federal government in accordance with federal guidelines. Seniors who enter skilled nursing facilities as private pay clients can become eligible for Medicaid once they have substantially depleted their assets. Medicaid is the largest source of funding for skilled nursing home facilities.
Medicare. Medicare is a federal program that provides healthcare benefits to individuals who are 65 years of age or older or are disabled. To achieve and maintain Medicare certification, a skilled nursing facility must meet the CMS, "Conditions of Participation," on an ongoing basis, as determined in periodic facility inspections or surveys conducted primarily by the state licensing agency in the state where the facility is located. Medicare pays for inpatient skilled nursing facility healthcare services under the prospective payment system. The prospective payment for each beneficiary is based upon the medical condition of, and care needed by, the beneficiary. Medicare skilled nursing facility coverage is limited to 100 days per episode of illness for those beneficiaries who require daily care following discharge from an acute care hospital.
Managed Care and Private Insurance. Managed care patients consist of individuals who are insured by a third-party entity, typically a senior-focused health maintenance organization ("HMO") plan, or who are Medicare beneficiaries who have assigned their Medicare benefits to a senior-focused HMO plan. Another type of insurance, long-term care insurance, is also becoming more widely available to consumers, but is not expected to contribute significantly to industry revenues in the near term.
Private and Other Payors. Private and other payors consist primarily of individuals, family members or other third parties who directly pay for the services we provide.
Billing and Reimbursement. Our revenues from government payors, including Medicare and state Medicaid agencies, is subject to retroactive adjustments in the form of claimed overpayments and underpayments based on rate adjustments and asserted billing and reimbursement errors. We believe billing and reimbursement errors, disagreements, overpayments and underpayments are common in our industry, and we are regularly engaged with government payors and their fiscal intermediaries in reviews, audits and appeals of our claims for reimbursement due to the subjectivity inherent in the processes related to patient diagnosis and care, recordkeeping, claims processing and other aspects of the patient service and reimbursement processes, and the errors and disagreements those subjectivities can produce.
Management fees. Management fee revenues are received under various contractual agreements with third-party companies.
Rental Revenue. Rental revenue is received under contractual agreements for the leasing of our facilities. The Company, as lessor, makes a determination with respect to each of its leases whether they should be accounted for as operating leases. The Company recognizes rental revenues on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease when collectibility is reasonably assured. Differences between rental income earned and amounts due under the lease are charged or credited, as applicable, to straight-line rent receivable, net. Payments received under operating leases are accounted for in the statements of operations as rental revenue for actual rent collected plus or minus a straight-line adjustment for estimated minimum lease escalators.
We employ accounting, reimbursement and compliance specialists who assist our clerical, clinical and rehabilitation staffs in the preparation of claims and supporting documentation, regularly monitor billing and reimbursement practices within our facilities, and assist with the appeal of overpayment and recoupment claims by governmental, fiscal intermediary and other auditors and reviewers. The table below sets forth our annual revenue by payor source during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

Competition
Our ability to compete successfully varies from location to location and depends on a number of factors, including the number of competing facilities in the local market, the types of services available, our local reputation for quality care of patients, the commitment and expertise of our staff and physicians, our local service offerings and treatment programs, the cost of care in each locality, and the physical appearance, location, age and condition of our facilities. We are in a competitive, yet fragmented, industry. While there are several national and regional companies that provide skilled nursing services, our primary source of competition is the smaller regional and local operators and third party facility management companies. There is limited, if any, price competition with respect to Medicaid and Medicare patients, since revenues for services to such patients are strictly controlled and are based on fixed rates and cost reimbursement principles. Our competitors include assisted living communities and other retirement facilities and communities, home health care agencies, skilled nursing facilities and convalescent centers, some of which operate on a not-for-profit or charitable basis.
We seek to compete effectively in each market by establishing a reputation within the local community for quality of care, attractive and comfortable facilities, and providing specialized healthcare with an ability to care for high-acuity patients. We believe that the average cost to a third-party payor for the treatment of our typical high-acuity patient is lower if that patient is treated in one of our skilled nursing facilities than if that same patient were to be treated in an inpatient rehabilitation facility or long-term acutecare hospital. The skilled nursing facilities operated by us compete with other facilities in their respective markets, including rehabilitation hospitals and other "skilled" and personal care residential facilities. In addition, our facilities also face competition for employees.
As announced in July 2014, our Board approved a strategic plan to transition the Company to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Through a series of leasing and sublease transactions, the Company will transition to third-parties the operations of the Company’s currently owned and operated healthcare facilities, which are principally skilled nursing facilities.The Company is focused on the ownership, acquisition and leasing of healthcare related properties. This strategy in essence minimizes certain competitive forces and provides a more consistent and predictable stream of income to the Company.
Increased competition could limit our ability to attract and retain patients, maintain or increase rates or to expand our business. Many of our competitors have greater financial and other resources than we have, may have greater brand recognition and may be more established in their respective communities than we are. Competing companies may also offer newer facilities or different programs or services than we do and may as a result be more attractive to our current patients, to potential patients and to referral sources. Some of our competitors may accept lower profit margins than we do, which could present significant price competition, particularly for managed care and private pay patients.
Government Regulation
The health care industry is subject to numerous laws and regulations of federal, state and local governments. These laws and regulations include, but are not necessarily limited to, matters such as licensure, accreditation, government health care program participation requirements, reimbursement for patient services, certificates of need, quality of patient care and Medicaid and Medicare fraud and abuse. Over the last several years, government activity has increased with respect to investigations and allegations concerning possible violations by health care providers of fraud and abuse statutes and regulations as well as laws and regulations governing quality of care issues in the skilled nursing profession in general. Violations of these laws and regulations could result in exclusion from government health care programs together with the imposition of significant fines and penalties, as well as significant repayments for patient services previously billed. Compliance with such laws and regulations is subject to ongoing government review and interpretation, as well as regulatory actions in which government agencies seek to impose fines and penalties.
Licensure and Certification. Certain states administer a certificate of need program, which applies to the incurrence of capital expenditures, the offering of certain new institutional health services, the cessation of certain services and the acquisition of major medical equipment. Such legislation also stipulates requirements for such programs, including that each program be consistent with the respective state health plan in effect pursuant to such legislation and provide for penalties to enforce program requirements. To the extent that certificates of need or other similar approvals are required for expansion of our operations, either through acquisitions, expansion or provision of new services or other changes, such expansion could be affected adversely by the failure or inability to obtain the necessary approvals, changes in the standards applicable to such approvals or possible delays and expenses associated with obtaining such approvals.
Skilled nursing and assisted living facilities are required to be individually licensed or certified under applicable state law and as a condition of participation under the Medicare program. In addition, healthcare professionals and practitioners are required to be licensed in most states. We believe that our operating companies and personnel that provide these services have all required regulatory approvals necessary for our current operations. The failure to obtain, retain or renew any required license could adversely affect our operations, including our financial results.
Health Reform Legislation. In recent years, there have been numerous initiatives on the federal and state levels for comprehensive reforms affecting the payment for, the availability of and reimbursement for healthcare services in the United States. These initiatives have ranged from proposals to fundamentally change federal and state healthcare reimbursement programs, including the provision of comprehensive healthcare coverage to the public under governmental funded programs, to minor modifications to existing programs. PPACA, which was passed in 2010 and has implementation timing and costs and regulatory implications that are still uncertain in many respects, is among the most comprehensive and notable of these legislative efforts, and its full effects on us and others in our industry are still in many ways difficult to predict. The content or timing of any future health reform legislation, and its impact on us, is impossible to predict. If significant reforms are made to the U.S. healthcare system, those reforms may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
While many of the provisions of PPACA will not take effect for several years or are subject to further refinement through the promulgation of regulations, some key provisions of PPACA are presently effective include the following:
| |
• | Enhanced CMPs and Escrow Provisions. PPACA includes expanded civil monetary penalty ("CMP") and related provisions applicable to all Medicaid and Medicare providers. CMS rules adopted to implement applicable provisions of PPACA also provide that assessed CMPs may be collected and placed in whole or in part into an escrow account pending final disposition of the applicable administrative and judicial appeals process. To the extent our businesses are assessed large CMPs that are collected and placed into an escrow account pending lengthy appeals, such actions could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. |
| |
• | Nursing Home Transparency Requirements. In addition to expanded CMP provisions, PPACA imposes new transparency requirements for Medicare-participating nursing facilities. In addition to previously required disclosures regarding a facility's owners, management, and secured creditors, PPACA expanded the required disclosures to include information regarding the facility's organizational structure, additional information on officers, directors, trustees, and "managing employees" of the facility (including their names, titles, and start dates of services), and information regarding certain parties affiliated with the facility. The transparency provisions could result in the potential for greater government scrutiny and oversight of the ownership and investment structure for skilled nursing facilities, as well as more extensive disclosure of entities and individuals that comprise part of skilled nursing facilities' ownership and management structure. |
| |
• | Suspension of Payments During Pending Fraud Investigations. PPACA provides the federal government with expanded authority to suspend Medicaid and Medicare payments if a provider is investigated for allegations or issues of fraud. This suspension authority creates a new mechanism for the federal government to suspend both Medicaid and Medicare payments for allegations of fraud, independent of whether a state exercises its authority to suspend Medicaid payments pending a fraud |
investigation. To the extent the suspension of payment provision is applied to one of our businesses for allegations of fraud, such a suspension could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
| |
• | Overpayment Reporting and Repayment; Expanded False Claims Act Liability. PPACA enacted several important changes that expand potential liability under the federal False Claims Act. Overpayments related to services provided to both Medicaid and Medicare beneficiaries must be reported and returned to the applicable payor within specified deadlines, or else they are considered obligations of the provider for purposes of the federal False Claims Act. This new provision substantially tightens the repayment and reporting requirements generally associated with the operations of health care providers to avoid False Claims Act exposure. |
| |
• | Home and Community Based Services. PPACA provides that states can provide home and community-based attendant services and support through the Community First Choice State plan option. States choosing to provide home and community-based services under this option must make them available to assist with activities of daily living, instrumental activities of daily living and health-related tasks under a plan of care agreed upon by the individual and his/her representative. For states that elect to make coverage of home and community-based services available through the community First Choice State plan option, the percentage of the state's Medicaid expenses paid by the federal government will increase by six percentage points. PPACA also includes additional measures related to the expansion of community and home-based services and authorizes states to expand coverage of community and home-based services to individuals who would not otherwise be eligible for them. The expansion of home and community-based services could reduce the demand for the facility-based services that we provide. |
| |
• | Health Care-Acquired Conditions. PPACA provides that the Secretary of Department of Health and Human Services ("DHHS") must prohibit payments to states for any amounts expended for providing medical assistance for certain medical conditions acquired during the patient's receipt of health care services. CMS adopted a final rule to implement this provision of PPACA in the third quarter of 2011. The rule prohibits states from making payments to providers under the Medicaid program for conditions that are deemed to be reasonably preventable. It uses Medicare's list of preventable conditions in inpatient hospital settings as the base (adjusted for the differences in the Medicaid and Medicare populations) and provides states the flexibility to identify additional preventable conditions and settings for which Medicaid payments will be denied. |
| |
• | Value-Based Purchasing. PPACA requires the DHHS to develop a plan to implement a value-based purchasing ("VBP") program for payments under the Medicare program for skilled nursing facilities and to submit a report containing the plan to Congress. The intent of the provision is to potentially reconfigure how Medicare pays for health care services, moving the program towards rewarding better value, outcomes, and innovations, instead of volume. According to the plan submitted to Congress in June 2012, the funding for the VBP program could come out of payment withholds from poor-performing skilled nursing facilities or by holding back a portion of the base payment rate or the annual update for all skilled nursing facilities. If a VBP program is ultimately implemented, it is uncertain what effect it would have upon skilled nursing facilities, but its funding or other provisions could negatively affect them. |
| |
• | Voluntary Pilot Program - Bundled Payments. To support the policies of making all providers responsible during an episode of care and rewarding value over volume, HHS will establish, test and evaluate alternative payment methodologies for Medicare services through a five-year, national, voluntary pilot program starting in 2013. This program will provide incentives for providers to coordinate patient care across the continuum and to be jointly accountable for an entire episode of care centered around a hospitalization. HHS will develop qualifying provider payment methods that may include bundled payments and bids from entities for episodes of care that begins three days prior to hospitalization and spans 30 to 90 days following discharge. Payments for items and services cannot result in spending more than would otherwise be expended for such entities if the pilot program were not implemented. Payment arrangements among providers participating in the bundled payment must navigate regulatory compliance under the Anti-kickback Law, the Stark Law and the Civil Monetary Penalties Law and the related waivers. This pilot program may expand in 2016 if expansion would reduce Medicare spending without also reducing quality of care. |
| |
• | Anti-Kickback Statute Amendments. PPACA amended the Anti-Kickback Statute so that: (i) a claim that includes items or services violating the Anti-Kickback Statute also would constitute a false or fraudulent claim under the federal False Claims Act; and (ii) the intent required to violate the Anti-Kickback Statute is lowered such that a person need not have actual knowledge or specific intent to violate the Anti-Kickback Statute in order for a violation to be deemed to have occurred. These modifications of the Anti-Kickback Statute could expose us to greater risk of inadvertent violations of the statute and to related liability under the federal False Claims Act. |
| |
• | Accountable Care Organizations. PPACA authorized CMS to enter into contracts with Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs), which are entities of providers and suppliers organized to deliver services to Medicare beneficiaries and eligible to |
receive a share of any cost savings the entity can achieve by delivering services to those beneficiaries at a cost below a set baseline and with sufficient quality of care. CMS recently finalized regulations to implement the ACO initiative. The widespread adoption of ACO payment methodologies in the Medicare program, and in other programs and payors, could impact our operations and reimbursement for our services. On January 26, 2015, CMS announced its goal to have 30% of Medicare payments for quality and value through alternative payment models such as ACOs or bundled payments by 2016 and up to 50% by the end of 2018.
On June 28, 2012, the United States Supreme Court ruled that the enactment of PPACA did not violate the Constitution of the United States. This ruling permits the implementation of most of the provisions of PPACA to proceed. The provisions of PPACA discussed above are examples of recently enacted federal health reform provisions that we believe may have a material impact on the long-term care profession generally and on our business. However, the foregoing discussion is not intended to constitute, nor does it constitute, an exhaustive review and discussion of PPACA. It is possible that other provisions of PPACA may be interpreted, clarified, or applied to our businesses in ways that could have a material impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Similar federal and/or state legislation that may be adopted in the future could have similar effects.
In addition, we incur considerable administrative costs in monitoring the changes made within the various reimbursement programs in which we participate, determining the appropriate actions to be taken in response to those changes, and implementing the required actions to meet the new requirements and minimize the repercussions of the changes to our organization, reimbursement rates and costs.
Medicare and Medicaid. Medicare is a federally-funded and administered health insurance program for the aged and for certain chronically disabled individuals. Part A of the Medicare program covers inpatient hospital services and certain services furnished by other institutional providers such as skilled nursing facilities. Part B of the Medicare program covers the services of doctors, suppliers of medical items, various types of outpatient services and certain ancillary services of the type provided by long-term and acute care facilities. Medicare payments under Part A and Part B are subject to certain caps and limitations, as provided in Medicare regulations. Medicare benefits are not available for intermediate and custodial levels of nursing center care or for assisted living center arrangements.
Medicaid is a medical assistance program for the indigent, operated by individual states with financial participation by the federal government. Criteria for medical indigence and available Medicaid benefits and rates of payment vary somewhat from state to state, subject to certain federal requirements. Basic long-term care services are provided to Medicaid beneficiaries, including nursing, dietary, housekeeping and laundry, restorative health care services, room and board and medications. Federal law requires that a state Medicaid program must provide for a public process for determination of Medicaid rates of payment for nursing center services. Under this process, proposed rates, the methodologies underlying the establishment of such rates and the justification for the proposed rates are published. This public process gives providers, beneficiaries and concerned state patients a reasonable opportunity for review and comment. Certain of the states in which we now operate are actively seeking ways to reduce Medicaid spending for nursing center care by such methods as capitated payments and substantial reductions in reimbursement rates.
As a component of CMS administration of the government's reimbursement programs, a new ratings system was implemented in December 2008 to assist the public in choosing a skilled care provider. The system is an attempt to simplify all the data for each nursing center to a "Star" ranking. The overall Star rating is determined by three components (three years survey results, quality measure calculations, and staffing data), with each of the components receiving star rankings as well. CMS proposes to expand and strengthen the Five Star Quality Rating System for nursing homes to improve consumer information about quality measures at individual nursing homes. We will continue to strive to achieve high rankings for our facilities, as well as assuring that our rankings are correct and appropriately reflect our quality results.
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 Compliance. There are numerous legislative and regulatory requirements at the federal and state levels addressing patient privacy and security of health information. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA") contains provisions that require us to adopt and maintain business procedures designed to protect the privacy, security and integrity of patients' individual health information. States also have laws that apply to the privacy of healthcare information. We must comply with these state privacy laws to the extent that they are more protective of healthcare information or provide additional protections not afforded by HIPAA. HIPAA's security standards were designed to protect electronic information against reasonably anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of the information and to protect the information against unauthorized use or disclosure. These standards have had and are expected to continue to have a significant impact on the health care industry because they impose extensive requirements and restrictions on the use and disclosure of identifiable patient information. In addition, HIPAA established uniform standards governing the conduct of certain electronic healthcare transactions and protecting the privacy and security of individually identifiable health information. The Health Information Technology for Clinical Health Act of 2009 expanded the requirements
and noncompliance penalties under HIPAA and requires correspondingly intensive compliance efforts by companies such as ours, including self-disclosures of breaches of unsecured health information to affected patients, federal officials, and, in some cases, the media.
On January 25, 2013, the DHHS promulgated new HIPAA privacy, security, and enforcement regulations, which increase significantly the penalties and enforcement practices of the Department regarding HIPAA violations. We implemented or upgraded computer and information systems as we believe necessary to comply with the new regulations. We believe that we are in substantial compliance with applicable state and federal regulations relating to privacy and security of patient information. However, if we fail to comply with the applicable regulations, we could be subject to significant penalties.
On January 25, 2013, the DHHS promulgated new HIPAA privacy, security, and enforcement regulations, which increase significantly the penalties and enforcement practices of DHHS regarding HIPAA violations. The new HIPAA regulations are effective as of March 26, 2013, and compliance was required by September 23, 2013.
Antitrust Laws. We are also subject to federal and state antitrust laws. Enforcement of the antitrust laws against healthcare providers is common, and antitrust liability may arise in a wide variety of circumstances, including third party contracting, physician relations, joint venture, merger, affiliation and acquisition activities. In some respects, the application of federal and state antitrust laws to healthcare is still evolving, and enforcement activity by federal and state agencies appears to be increasing. At various times, healthcare providers and insurance and managed care organizations may be subject to an investigation by a governmental agency charged with the enforcement of antitrust laws, or may be subject to administrative or judicial action by a federal or state agency or a private party. Violators of the antitrust laws could be subject to criminal and civil enforcement by federal and state agencies, as well as by private litigants.
Transition. As our Company transitions to a concentrated healthcare property holding and leasing company, the impact of certain government regulations to us may change. Specifically, the third-party operators of the Company’s currently owned and operated healthcare facilities will take on the responsibility for such government regulation compliance as it relates to the specific operations.
Employees
As of December 31, 2014, excluding discontinued operations, we had approximately 3,414 total employees of which 2,494 were full-time employees.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
The following are certain risk factors that could affect our business, operations and financial condition. These risk factors should be considered in connection with evaluating the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report because these factors could cause the actual results and conditions to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements. This section does not describe all risks applicable to our business, and we intend it only as a summary of certain material factors. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be negatively affected. In that case, the trading price of our common stock and our Series A Preferred Stock could decline.
Risks Related to Us and Our Operations as an Operator of Healthcare Facilities
Health care reform may affect our profitability and may require us to change the way our business is conducted.
Health care is an area of extensive and frequent regulatory change. The manner and the extent to which health care is regulated at the federal and state level is evolving. Changes in the laws or new interpretations of existing laws may have a significant effect on our methods and costs of doing business. Our success will depend partially on our ability to satisfy the applicable regulations and requirements and to procure and maintain required licenses. Our operations could also be adversely affected by, among other things, regulatory developments such as mandatory increases in the scope and quality of care given to the residents and revisions in licensing and certification standards. We are and will continue to be subject to varying degrees of regulation and licensing by health or social service agencies. We believe that our operations do not presently violate any existing federal or state laws, but we make no assurances that federal, state, or local laws or regulatory procedures which might adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects will not be expanded or imposed. A failure to comply with applicable requirements could cause us to be fined or could cause the cessation of our business, which would have a material adverse effect on our Company.
In March 2010, the PPACA and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 were signed into law. Together, these two measures make the most sweeping changes to the U.S. health care system since the creation of Medicaid and Medicare. These new laws include a large number of health care related provisions scheduled to take effect over the next four years, including expanding Medicaid eligibility, requiring most individuals to have health insurance, establishing new
regulations on health plans, establishing health insurance exchanges and modifying certain payment systems to encourage more cost-effective care and a reduction of inefficiencies and waste, including new tools to address fraud and abuse. As the implementation of, and rulemaking with respect to, these measures is ongoing, we are unable to accurately predict the effect these laws or any future legislation or regulation will have on us or our operations, including future reimbursement rates and occupancy in our inpatient facilities.
Our business depends on reimbursement under federal and state programs, and federal and state legislation or other changes to reimbursement and other aspects of Medicaid and Medicare may reduce or otherwise adversely affect reimbursement amounts.
A substantial portion of our revenue is derived from third-party payors, including Medicaid and Medicare programs. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects would be adversely affected in the event that reimbursement rates under these programs are reduced or rise more slowly than the rate at which our costs increase or if there are changes in the way these programs pay for services. For example, services for which we are currently reimbursed by Medicaid and Medicare may not continue to be reimbursed at adequate levels or at all, or further limits on the scope of services being reimbursed, delays or reductions in reimbursement or changes in other aspects of reimbursement could occur, each of which could adversely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
The Medicaid and Medicare programs are subject to statutory and regulatory changes affecting, among other things, base rates or basis of payment, retroactive rate adjustments, annual caps that limit the amount that can be paid (including deductible and coinsurance amounts) for rehabilitation therapy services rendered to Medicare beneficiaries, administrative or executive orders and government funding restrictions, all of which may materially adversely affect the rates and frequency at which these programs reimburse us for our services.
On August 2, 2011, the President signed into law the Budget Control Act of 2011 (the "Budget Control Act"), which raised the debt ceiling and put into effect a series of actions for deficit reduction. The Budget Control Act created a Congressional Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction (the "Committee") that was tasked with proposing additional deficit reduction of at least $1.5 trillion over ten years. As the Committee was unable to achieve its targeted savings, this regulation triggered automatic reductions in discretionary and mandatory spending, or budget sequestration, starting in 2013, including reductions of not more than 2% to payments to Medicare providers. We are unable to accurately predict the impact these automatic and potential reductions will have on our business, and those reductions could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Federal governmental proposals could limit the states' use of provider tax programs to generate revenue for their Medicaid expenditures, which could result in a reduction in our reimbursement rates under Medicaid. To generate funds to pay for the increasing costs of the Medicaid program, many states utilize financial arrangements commonly referred to as "provider taxes." Under provider tax arrangements, states collect taxes from healthcare providers and then use the revenue to pay the providers as a Medicaid expenditure, which allows the states to then claim additional federal matching funds on the additional reimbursements. Current federal law provides for a cap on the maximum allowable provider tax as a percentage of the provider's total revenue. There is no assurance that federal law will continue to provide matching federal funds on state Medicaid expenditures funded through provider taxes, or that the current caps on provider taxes will not be reduced. Any discontinuance or reduction in federal matching of provider tax-related Medicaid expenditures could have a significant and adverse effect on states' Medicaid expenditures and, as a result, could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We cannot currently estimate the magnitude of the potential Medicaid and Medicare rate or payment reductions, the impact of the failure of these programs to increase rates to match increasing expenses or the impact on us of potential Medicaid and Medicare policy changes, but they may be material to our operations and affect our future results of operations. We are unable to accurately predict whether future Medicaid and Medicare rates and payments will be sufficient to cover our costs. Future Medicaid and Medicare rate declines or a failure of these rates or payments to cover our costs could result in our experiencing materially lower earnings or losses.
We conduct business in a heavily regulated industry, and changes in, or violations of, regulations may result in increased costs or sanctions that reduce our revenue and profitability.
As a result of our participation in the Medicaid and Medicare programs, we are subject to, in the ordinary course of business, various governmental reviews, inquiries, investigations and audits by federal and state agencies to verify our compliance with these programs and laws and regulations applicable to the operation of, and reimbursement for, skilled nursing and assisted living facilities and our other operating areas. These regulations include those relating to licensure, conduct of operations, ownership of facilities, construction of new facilities and additions to existing facilities, allowable costs, services and prices for services.
Recently, the federal government has imposed extensive enforcement policies resulting in a significant increase in the number of inspections, citations of regulatory deficiencies and other regulatory sanctions, including terminations from the Medicaid and Medicare programs, denials of payment for new Medicaid and Medicare admissions and civil monetary penalties. If we fail to comply, or are perceived as failing to comply, with the extensive laws and regulations applicable to our industry, then we may become ineligible to receive government program reimbursement, be required to refund amounts received from Medicare, Medicaid or private payors, suffer civil or criminal penalties, suffer damage to our reputation or be required to significantly change the way we operate our business.
We operate in multiple states and the applicable regulatory provisions in each state are subject to changes over time. We continue to monitor state regulatory provisions applicable to our business to facilitate compliance with any revised or newly issued rules and policies.
Federal and state healthcare fraud and abuse laws regulate both the provision of services to government program beneficiaries and the methods and requirements for submitting claims for services rendered to such beneficiaries. Under these laws, individuals and organizations can be penalized for submitting claims for services that are not provided, that have been inadequately provided, billed in an incorrect manner or other than as actually provided, not medically necessary, provided by an improper person, accompanied by an illegal inducement to utilize or refrain from utilizing a service or product, or billed or coded in a manner that does not otherwise comply with applicable governmental requirements. Penalties also may be imposed for violation of anti-kickback and patient referral laws.
Federal and state governments have a range of criminal, civil and administrative sanctions available to penalize and remediate healthcare fraud and abuse, including exclusion of the provider from participation in the Medicaid and Medicare programs, fines, criminal and civil monetary penalties and suspension of payments and, in the case of individuals, imprisonment. We also are subject to potential lawsuits under a federal whistleblower statute designed to combat fraud and abuse in the health care industry. These lawsuits can involve significant monetary awards to private plaintiffs who successfully bring these suits.
We believe that we maintain and follow policies and procedures that are sufficient to ensure that our facilities will operate in substantial compliance with these anti-fraud and abuse requirements and other Medicaid and Medicare program criteria. While we believe that our business practices are consistent with Medicaid and Medicare criteria, those criteria are often vague and subject to change and interpretation.
We are unable to accurately predict the future course of federal, state and local regulation or legislation, including Medicaid and Medicare statutes and regulations, or the intensity of federal and state enforcement actions. An adverse review, inquiry, investigation or audit could result in:
| |
• | an obligation to refund amounts previously paid to us pursuant to the Medicare or Medicaid programs or from private payors, in amounts that could be material to our business; |
| |
• | state or federal agencies imposing fines, penalties and other sanctions on us; |
| |
• | loss of our right to participate in the Medicare or Medicaid programs or one or more private payor networks; |
| |
• | an increase in private litigation against us; and |
| |
• | harm to our reputation in various markets. |
An expanded federal program is underway to recover Medicare overpayments.
The Medicare Modernization Act of 2003 established a three year demonstration project to recover overpayments and identify underpayments on Medicare claims from hospitals, skilled nursing facilities and home health agencies through a review of claims previously paid by Medicare beginning in October, 2007. Medicare contracted nationwide with third parties known as Recovery Audit Contractors ("RAC") to conduct these reviews commonly referred to as RAC Audits. Due to the success of the program, the Tax Relief and Health Care Act of 2006 made the program permanent and mandated its expansion to all 50 states in 2010. We are also subject to other audits under various government programs, including Zone Program Integrity Contractors, Program Safeguard Contractors and Medicaid Integrity Contractors, in which third-party firms engaged by CMS conduct extensive reviews of claims data and medical and other records to identify potential improper government payments. We make no assurances that our claims will not be selected for any such audits in the future and, if they are selected for any such audit, the extent to which these audits may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We are subject to claims under the self-referral and anti-kickback legislation.
In the United States, various state and federal laws regulate the relationships between providers of health care services, physicians and other clinicians. In particular, various laws, including federal and state anti-kickback and anti-fraud statutes, prohibit certain business practices and relationships that might affect the provision and cost of health care services reimbursable under Medicaid and Medicare programs, including the payment or receipt of compensation for the referral of patients whose care will be paid by federal governmental programs. Sanctions for violating the anti-kickback and anti-fraud statutes include criminal penalties and civil sanctions, including fines and possible exclusion from governmental programs such as Medicaid and Medicare.
These laws and regulations are complex, and limited judicial or regulatory interpretation exists. While we make every effort to ensure compliance, we make no assurances that governmental officials charged with responsibility for enforcing the provisions of these laws and regulations will not assert that one or more of our arrangements are in violation of the provisions of such laws and regulations. Violations of these laws may result in substantial civil or criminal penalties for individuals or entities, including large civil monetary penalties and exclusion from participation in the Medicare or Medicaid programs. Such exclusion or penalties, if applied to us, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We are required to comply with laws governing the transmission and privacy of health information.
HIPAA requires us to comply with standards for the exchange of health information within our Company and with third parties, such as payors, business associates and patients. These include standards for common health care transactions, such as claims information, plan eligibility, payment information and the use of electronic signatures, unique identifiers for providers, employers, health plans and individuals, and security, privacy and enforcement. If we are found to be in violation of the privacy or security rules under HIPAA or other federal or state laws protecting the confidentiality of patient health information, we could be subject to criminal penalties and civil sanctions, which could increase our liabilities, harm our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We rely on information technology in our operations, and any material failure, inadequacy, interruption or security failure of that technology could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We rely on information technology networks and systems, including the Internet, to process, transmit and store electronic information, and manage or support a variety of business processes, including medical records, financial transactions and records, personal identifying information, payroll data and workforce scheduling information. We purchase some of our information technology from vendors, on whom our systems depend. We rely on commercially available systems, software, tools and monitoring to provide security for processing, transmission and storage of confidential patient, resident and other customer information, such as individually identifiable information, including information relating to health protected by HIPAA. Although we have taken steps to protect the security of our information systems and the data maintained in those systems, it is possible that our safety and security measures will not prevent the systems' improper functioning or damage or the improper access or disclosure of personally identifiable information such as in the event of cyber-attacks. Security breaches, including physical or electronic break-ins, computer viruses, attacks by hackers and similar breaches can create system disruptions or shutdowns or the unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. If personal or otherwise protected information of our patients is improperly accessed, tampered with or distributed, we may incur significant costs to remediate possible injury to the affected patients and we may be subject to sanctions and civil or criminal penalties if we are found to be in violation of the privacy or security rules under HIPAA or other similar federal or state laws protecting confidential patient health information. Any failure to maintain proper functionality and security of our information systems could interrupt our operations, damage our reputation, subject us to liability claims or regulatory penalties and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Circumstances that adversely affect the ability of seniors, or their families, to pay for our services could have material adverse effects on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Approximately 6% of our skilled nursing occupants and nearly all of the occupants of our assisted living facilities rely on their personal investments and wealth to pay for their stay in our facilities. We expect to continue to rely on the ability of our residents to pay for our services from their own financial resources. Inflation, continued high levels of unemployment, declines in market values of investments and home prices, or other circumstances that may adversely affect the ability of the elderly or their families to pay for our services could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We depend largely upon reimbursement from third-party payors, and our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be adversely affected by any changes in the mix of patients in our facilities as well as payor mix and payment methodologies.
Our revenue is affected by the percentage of our patients who require a high level of skilled nursing and rehabilitative care, whom we refer to as high acuity patients, and by our mix of payment sources. Changes in our patient mix, as well as our payor mix among Medicaid, Medicare, private payors and managed care companies, may significantly affect our profitability because we generally receive higher reimbursement rates for certain patients, such as rehabilitation patients, and because the payors reimburse us at different rates. As a result, changes in the case mix of patients as well as the payor mix may significantly affect our profitability. Particularly, a significant increase in Medicaid patients will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, especially if states operating Medicaid programs continue to limit, or more aggressively seek limits on, reimbursement rates.
We operate in an industry that is highly competitive.
The long-term care industry is highly competitive and we believe that it will become even more competitive in the future. We face direct competition for patients, employees and the acquisition of facilities. Our skilled nursing and assisted living facilities face competition from skilled nursing, assisted living, independent living facilities, homecare services, community-based service programs, retirement communities and other operations that provide services comparable to those offered by us.
We compete with national companies with respect to both our skilled nursing and assisted living facilities. Additionally, we also compete with local and regional based entities. Many of these competing companies have greater financial and other resources than we have. Failure to effectively compete with these companies may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Our ability to compete is based on several factors, including, without limitation, building age, appearance, reputation, availability of patients, survey history and CMS rankings. We make no assurances that increases in competition in the future will not adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
The cost to replace or retain qualified personnel may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, and we may not be able to comply with the staffing requirements of certain states.
We could experience significant increases in our costs due to shortages in qualified nurses, health care professionals and other key personnel. We compete with other providers of home health care, nursing home care, and assisted living with respect to attracting and retaining qualified personnel, and the market is competitive. Because of the small markets in which we operate, shortages of nurses and trained personnel may require us to enhance our wage and benefit package in order to compete and attract qualified employees from more metropolitan areas. Further, acquisitions of new facilities may require us to pay increased compensation or offer other incentives to retain key personnel and other employees in any newly acquired facilities. Increased competition in the future with respect to attracting and maintaining key personnel could limit our ability to attract and retain residents or to expand our business.
Certain states in which we currently operate may have adopted minimum staffing standards, and additional states may also establish similar requirements in the future. Our ability to satisfy these requirements will depend upon our ability to attract and retain qualified, nurses, certified nurses' assistants and other personnel. Failure to comply with these requirements may result in the imposition of fines or other sanctions. If states do not appropriate sufficient additional funding, through Medicaid appropriations or otherwise, to pay for any additional operating costs resulting from minimum staffing requirements, then our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be adversely affected.
To date, we have been able to adequately staff all of our operations. However, we make no assurances that the ability to adequately staff all of our operations will continue in the future. Additionally, increasing employee health and workers' compensation insurance costs may materially and negatively affect our profitability. We provide no assurances that our labor costs will not increase or that any increase will be matched by corresponding increases in rates we charge to facility residents. Our ability to control labor costs will significantly effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation in the future.
Successful union organization of our employees may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Periodically, labor unions attempt to organize our employees. Although we currently have no collective bargaining agreements with unions with respect to our employees or our facilities, there is no assurance that this will continue to be the case in the future. If future federal legislation makes it easier for employee groups to unionize, then groups of our employees may seek union representation. If more of our employees unionize, we could experience business interruptions, work stoppages, declines in service levels due to union specific rules or increased operating expenses that may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
If we lose our key management personnel, we may not be able to successfully manage our business or achieve our objectives, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We are dependent on our management team, and our future success depends largely upon the management experience, skill, and contacts of our management, and the loss of any of our key management team could harm our business. If we lose the services of any or all of our management team, we may not be able to replace them with similarly qualified personnel, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Termination of assisted living resident agreements and resident attrition could adversely affect our revenues and earnings.
State regulations governing assisted living facilities typically require a written resident agreement with each resident. Most of these regulations also require that each resident have the right to terminate our assisted living resident agreement for any reason on reasonable notice. Consistent with these regulations, most resident agreements allow residents to terminate their agreements on 30 days' notice. Unlike typical leasing relationships which require a commitment of one year or more, we cannot contract with our residents for longer periods of time.
Environmental compliance costs and liabilities associated with our facilities may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We are subject to various federal, state and local environmental and health and safety laws and regulations with respect to our facilities. These laws and regulations address various matters, including asbestos, fuel oil management, wastewater discharges, air emissions, medical wastes and hazardous wastes. The costs of complying with these laws and regulations and the penalties for non-compliance can be substantial. For example, with respect to our owned and leased property, we may be held liable for costs relating to the investigation and cleanup of any of our owned or leased properties from which there has been a release or threatened release of a regulated material as well as other properties affected by the release. In addition to these costs, which are typically not limited by law or regulation and could exceed the property's value, we could be liable for certain other costs, including, without limitation, governmental fines and injuries to persons, property or natural resources. Further, some environmental laws create a lien on the contaminated site in favor of the government for damages and the costs it incurs in connection with the contamination. While we are not aware of any potential environmental problems, no assurances are made that such problems and the costs associated with them will not arise in the future. If any of our properties were found to violate environmental laws, we may be required to expend significant amounts of time and money to rehabilitate the property, and we may be subject to significant liability. Any environmental compliance costs and liabilities incurred may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Disasters and other adverse events may seriously harm our business.
Our facilities and residents may suffer harm as a result of natural or man-made disasters such as storms, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, fires, terrorist attacks and other conditions. Such events may disrupt our operations, harm our patients and employees, severely damage or destroy one more of our facilities, harm our business, reputation and financial performance, or otherwise cause our business to suffer in ways that cannot currently be predicted.
The nature of business exposes us to certain litigation risks.
The provision of health care services entails an inherent risk of liability. In recent years, participants in the long-term care industry have become subject to an increasing number of lawsuits alleging malpractice, negligence or other related legal theories. In several well publicized instances, private litigation by residents of senior living facilities for alleged abuses has resulted in large damage awards against other operating companies. Certain lawyers and firms specialize in bringing litigation against companies such as ours. As a result of this litigation, our cost of liability insurance has increased during the past few years.
We currently maintain liability insurance. This insurance is intended to cover malpractice and other lawsuits. Although we believe that it is in keeping with industry standards, no assurances are made that claims in excess of our limits will not arise. Any such successful claims could have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Claims against us, regardless of their merit or eventual outcome, may also have a material adverse effect upon our ability to attract and retain patients and key personnel. In addition, our insurance policies must be renewed annually, and no assurances are made that we will be able to retain coverage in the future or, if coverage is available, that it will be available on acceptable terms.
Risks Related to Us as a Facilities Holding Company
We may be unable to achieve any of the benefits that we expect to achieve from the Transition.
We may not derive any of the strategic or financial benefits that we expect from the Transition or such benefits may be delayed, if they materialize at all. The anticipated benefits of the Transition are based on a number of assumptions, which may prove incorrect. For example, we believe that the Transition will allow us to increase our cash flow, pay consistent cash quarterly dividends, maximize the value of our properties, expand into new geographic areas, reduce our financing costs and make opportunistic acquisitions. If the Transition does not have these and other expected benefits for any reason, then the Transition could have a negative effect on our financial condition.
We may be unable to obtain the consents, approvals and authorizations of third parties necessary to successfully implement the Transition.
In connection with the Transition, we will need the consent, approval or authorization of certain of our lenders, the lessors of our currently-leased healthcare properties and appropriate governmental entities, as well as other third parties, as applicable. We make no assurances that these consents, approvals or authorizations will be obtained, or obtained on a timely basis. Failure to obtain these consents, approvals or authorizations, or failure to obtain them on a timely basis, will hinder our ability to effect the Transition and could have a negative effect on our financial condition.
Economic conditions and turbulence in the credit markets may create challenges in securing third-party borrowings or refinancing our existing indebtedness, which may prevent us from successfully implementing the Transition.
Depressed economic conditions, the availability and cost of credit, turmoil in the mortgage market and depressed real estate markets have in the past contributed, and will in the future contribute, to increased volatility and diminished expectations for real estate markets and the economy as a whole. Significant market disruption and volatility could impact our ability to secure third-party borrowings or refinance our existing indebtedness, which may prevent us from successfully implementing the Transition.
We rely on external sources of capital to fund future capital needs, and if we encounter difficulty in obtaining such capital, we may not be able to make future investments necessary to grow our business or meet maturing commitments.
We rely on external sources of capital, including debt and equity financing. If we are unable to obtain needed capital at all or only on unfavorable terms from these sources, we might not be able to make the investments needed to grow our business or to meet our obligations and commitments as they mature. Our access to capital depends upon a number of factors over which we have little or no control, including the performance of the national and global economies generally; competition in the healthcare industry; issues facing the healthcare industry, including regulations and government reimbursement policies; our operators’ operating costs; the market’s perception of our growth potential; the market value of our properties; our current and potential future earnings and cash dividends; and the market price of the shares of our capital stock. While we currently have sufficient cash flow from operations to fund our obligations and commitments, we may not be in a position to take advantage of future investment opportunities if we are unable to access capital markets on a timely basis or are only able to obtain financing on unfavorable terms.
Our ability to raise capital through equity sales is dependent, in part, on the market price of the common stock, and our failure to meet market expectations with respect to our business could negatively impact the market price of the common stock and availability of equity capital.
As with other publicly-traded companies, the availability of equity capital will depend, in part, on the market price of the common stock, which, in turn, will depend upon various market conditions and other factors that may change from time to time, including:
| |
• | the extent of investor interest; |
| |
• | our financial performance and that of our operators; |
| |
• | general stock and bond market conditions; and |
| |
• | other factors such as governmental regulatory action. |
We are subject to risks associated with debt financing, which would negatively impact our business and limit our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders and to repay maturing indebtedness.
The financing required to make future investments and satisfy maturing commitments may be provided by borrowings under our credit facilities, private or public offerings of debt or equity, the assumption of secured indebtedness, or mortgage financing on a portion of our owned portfolio. To the extent we must obtain debt financing from external sources to fund our capital requirements, no assurance is given that such financing will be available on favorable terms, if at all. In addition, if we are unable to refinance or extend principal payments due at maturity or pay them with proceeds from other capital transactions, our cash flow may not be sufficient to pay dividends to our shareholders and repay our maturing indebtedness. Furthermore, if we have to pay higher interest rates in connection with a refinancing, the interest expense relating to that refinanced indebtedness would increase, which could reduce our profitability . Moreover, additional debt financing increases the amount of our leverage. The degree of leverage could have important consequences to our shareholders, including affecting our ability to obtain additional financing in the future, and making us more vulnerable to a downturn in our results of operations or the economy generally.
Unforeseen costs associated with the acquisition of new healthcare properties could reduce our profitability.
Our business strategy contemplates future acquisitions that may not prove to be successful. For example, we might encounter unanticipated difficulties and expenditures relating to our acquired healthcare properties, including contingent liabilities, or our newly acquired healthcare properties might require significant management attention that would otherwise be devoted to our ongoing business. Such costs may negatively affect our results of operations.
We may not be able to adapt our management and operational systems to integrate and manage our growth without additional expense.
No assurance is given that we will be able to adapt our management, administrative, accounting and other systems to integrate the long-term care facilities that we may acquire. Our failure to timely integrate and manage future acquisitions or other developments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
We may be subject to additional risks in connection with the long-term care facilities that we own or may acquire.
We may be subject to additional risks in connection with long-term care facilities that we own or may acquire, including the following:
| |
• | our lack of, or our limited, prior business experience with certain of the operators of the facilities we own or may acquire in the future; |
| |
• | the facilities may underperform due to various factors, including unfavorable terms and conditions of the lease agreements, disruptions caused by the management of the operators of the facilities or changes in economic conditions impacting the facilities or the operators; |
| |
• | diversion of our management’s attention away from other business concerns; |
| |
• | exposure to any undisclosed or unknown potential liabilities relating to the facilities; and |
| |
• | potential underinsured losses on the facilities. |
Our assets may be subject to impairment charges.
We periodically, but not less than annually, evaluate our real estate investments and other assets for impairment indicators. The judgment regarding the existence of impairment indicators is based on factors such as market conditions, operator performance and legal structure. If we determine that a significant impairment has occurred, then we are required to make an adjustment to the net carrying value of the asset, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and funds from operations in the period in which the write-off occurs.
We may not be able to sell certain long-term care facilities for their book value.
From time to time, we may close facilities and actively market such facilities for sale. To the extent we are unable to sell these properties for our book value, we may be required to take a non-cash impairment charge or loss on the sale, either of which would reduce our net income.
Our business requires us to make capital expenditures to maintain and improve our facilities.
Our facilities sometimes require capital expenditures to address ongoing required maintenance and to make them attractive to residents. Physical characteristics of senior living facilities and rehabilitation centers are mandated by various governmental authorities; and changes in these regulations may require us to make significant expenditures. Our available financial resources may be insufficient to fund these expenditures.
Our indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition.
We have a material amount of indebtedness, and we may increase our indebtedness in the future. Debt financing could have important consequences to our shareholders. For example, it could:
| |
• | increase our vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions; |
| |
• | limit our ability to borrow additional funds for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, execution of our business plan or other general corporate purposes on satisfactory terms or at all; |
| |
• | require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to make payments on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes; |
| |
• | limit our ability to make acquisitions or take advantage of business opportunities that may arise; |
| |
• | expose us to fluctuations in interest rates to the extent our borrowings bear variable rates of interest; |
| |
• | limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; and |
| |
• | place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt. |
Covenants in the agreements evidencing our indebtedness limit our operational flexibility, and a covenant breach could materially adversely affect our operations.
The terms of our credit agreements and other agreements evidencing our indebtedness require us to comply with a number of customary financial and other covenants which may limit our management’s discretion by restricting our ability to, among other things, incur additional debt, redeem our capital stock, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, pay dividends and make other distributions, make investments and other restricted payments, and create liens. Any additional financing we may obtain could contain similar or more restrictive covenants. Our continued ability to incur indebtedness and conduct our operations is subject to compliance with these financial and other covenants. Breaches of these covenants could result in defaults under the instruments governing the applicable indebtedness in addition to any other indebtedness cross-defaulted against such instruments. Any such breach could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We are subject to particular risks associated with real estate ownership, which could result in unanticipated losses or expenses.
Our business is subject to many risks that are associated with the ownership of real estate. For example, if our operators do not renew their leases, then we may be unable to re-lease the long-term care facilities at favorable rental rates, if at all. Other risks that are associated with real estate acquisition and ownership include the following:
| |
• | general liability, property and casualty losses, some of which may be uninsured; |
| |
• | the inability to purchase or sell our assets rapidly to respond to changing economic conditions, due to the illiquid nature of real estate and the real estate market; |
| |
• | leases that are not renewed or are renewed at lower rental amounts at expiration; |
| |
• | costs relating to maintenance and repair of our facilities and the need to make expenditures due to changes in governmental regulations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act; |
| |
• | environmental hazards created by prior owners or occupants, existing tenants, mortgagors or other persons for which we may be liable; |
| |
• | acts of God affecting our healthcare properties; and |
| |
• | acts of terrorism affecting our healthcare properties. |
Our real estate investments are relatively illiquid.
Real estate investments are relatively illiquid and generally cannot be sold quickly. In addition, all of our healthcare properties serve as collateral for our secured debt obligations and cannot be readily sold. Additional factors that are specific to our industry also tend to limit our ability to vary our portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions. For example, all of our healthcare properties are “special purpose” properties that cannot be readily converted into general residential, retail or office use. In addition, transfers of operations of skilled nursing facilities, assisted living facilities and other healthcare facilities are subject to regulatory approvals not required for transfers of other types of commercial operations and other types of real estate. Thus, if the operation of any of our healthcare properties becomes unprofitable due to competition, age of improvements or other factors such that an operator becomes unable to meet its obligations to us, then the liquidation value of the property may be substantially less, particularly relative to the amount owing on any related mortgage loan, than would be the case if the property were readily adaptable to other uses. Furthermore, the receipt of liquidation proceeds or the replacement of an operator that has defaulted on its lease could be delayed by the approval process of any federal, state or local agency necessary for the transfer of the property or the replacement of the operator with a new operator licensed to manage the facility. In addition, certain significant expenditures associated with real estate investment, such as real estate taxes and maintenance costs, are generally not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in income from the investment. Should such events occur, our income and cash flows from operations would be adversely affected.
As an owner with respect to real property, we may be exposed to possible environmental liabilities.
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner of real property, such as us, may be liable in certain circumstances for the costs of investigation, removal or remediation of, or related releases of, certain hazardous or toxic substances at, under or disposed of in connection with such property, as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances, including government fines and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property. Such laws often impose liability based on the owner’s knowledge of, or responsibility for, the presence or disposal of such substances. As a result, liability may be imposed on the owner in connection with the activities of an operator of the property. The cost of any required investigation, remediation, removal, fines or personal or property damages and the owner’s liability therefor could exceed the value of the property and the assets of the owner. In addition, the presence of such substances, or the failure to properly dispose of or remediate such substances, may adversely affect an operator’s ability to attract additional residents and our ability to sell or rent such property or to borrow using such property as collateral which, in turn, could negatively impact our revenues.
The industry in which we operate is highly competitive. Increasing investor interest in our sector and consolidation at the operator level could increase competition and reduce our profitability.
Our business is highly competitive, and we expect that it may become more competitive in the future. We compete for healthcare facility investments with other healthcare investors, many of which have greater resources and lower costs of capital than we do. Increased competition makes it more challenging for us to identify and successfully capitalize on opportunities that meet our business goals. If we cannot identify and purchase a sufficient number of healthcare facilities at favorable prices, or if we are unable to finance such acquisitions on commercially favorable terms, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially adversely affected. In addition, if our cost of capital should increase relative to the cost of capital of our competitors, the spread that we realize on our investments may decline if competitive pressures limit or prevent us from charging higher lease rates.
We may change our investment strategies and policies and capital structure.
The Board, without the approval of our shareholders, may alter our investment strategies and policies if it determines that a change is in our shareholders’ best interests. The methods of implementing our investment strategies and policies may vary as new investments and financing techniques are developed.
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to retain key personnel and our ability to attract or retain other qualified personnel.
Our future performance depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of our executive management team and other key employees. The loss of the services of our current executive management team could have an adverse impact on our operations. In addition, our future success depends, in part, on our ability to attract, hire, train and retain other qualified
personnel. Competition for qualified employees is intense, and we compete for qualified employees with companies with greater financial resources. Our failure to successfully attract, hire, retain and train the people we need would significantly impede our ability to implement our business strategy.
We may not have sufficient liquidity to meet our capital needs.
Based on existing cash balances, anticipated cash flows, and new sources of capital, we believe there will be sufficient funds for our operations, scheduled debt service, and capital expenditures through the next 12 months. On a longer term basis, we have debt payments, excluding convertible promissory notes which are convertible into shares of common stock. We believe our long-term liquidity needs will be satisfied by these same sources, as well as borrowings as required to refinance indebtedness.
In order to satisfy these capital needs, we intend to: (i) improve our operating results through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions with favorable terms and consistent and predictable cash flow; (ii) expand our borrowing arrangements with certain existing lenders; (iii) refinance current debt where possible to obtain more favorable terms; and (iv) raise capital through the issuance of debt or equity securities. We anticipate that these actions, if successful, will provide the opportunity for us to maintain liquidity on a short and long term basis, thereby permitting us to meet our operating and financing obligations for the next 12 months and provide for the continuance of our business strategy. However, there is no guarantee that such actions will be successful or that anticipated operating results will be achieved. We currently have limited borrowing availability under our existing revolving credit facilities. If the Company is unable to improve operating results, expand existing borrowing agreements, refinance current debt, the convertible promissory notes due are not converted into common stock and are required to be repaid by us in cash, or raise capital through the issuance of securities, then the Company may be required to restructure its outstanding indebtedness, implement further cost reduction initiatives, sell assets, or delay, modify, or abandon its transition plans.
There are no assurances with respect to our ability to pay dividends in the future.
We are a holding company, and we have no significant operations. We rely primarily on dividends and other distributions from our subsidiaries to us so we may, among other things, pay dividends on our capital stock, if and to the extent declared by the Board. The ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends and make other distributions to us depends on their earnings and is restricted by the terms of certain agreements governing their indebtedness. If our subsidiaries are in default under such agreements, then they may not pay dividends or make other distributions to us.
In addition, we may only pay dividends on our capital stock if we have funds legally available to pay dividends and such payment is not restricted or prohibited by law, the terms of any shares with higher priority with respect to dividends or any documents governing our indebtedness. We are restricted by Georgia law from paying dividends on our capital stock if we are not able to pay our debts as they become due in the normal course of business or if our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of the shareholders whose preferential rights are superior. In addition, no cash dividends may be declared or paid on the common stock unless full cumulative dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock have been, or contemporaneously are, declared and paid, or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof is set apart for payments, for all past dividend periods. In addition, future debt, contractual covenants or arrangements we or our subsidiaries enter into may restrict or prevent future dividend payments.
The payment of any future dividends on the common stock will be at the discretion of the Board and will depend, among other things, on the earnings and results of operations of our subsidiaries, their ability to pay dividends and make other distributions to us under agreements governing their indebtedness, our financial condition and capital requirements, any debt service requirements and any other factors the Board deems relevant.
We are subject to possible conflicts of interest; we have engaged in, and expect to continue to engage in, transactions with parties that may be considered related parties.
From time to time, we have engaged in various transactions with Christopher Brogdon, Director, owner of greater than 5% of our outstanding common stock and former Chief Acquisition Officer of the Company. These transactions, along with other related party transactions, are described in Note 19 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data," and Part III., Item 13., “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.”
We believe that our affiliations with Mr. Brogdon, and other related parties have been, and will be, beneficial to us. Although we do not believe the potential conflicts have adversely affected, or will adversely affect, our business, others may
disagree with this position and litigation could ensue in the future. Our relationships with Mr. Brogdon and other related parties may give rise to litigation, nominations or proposals which could result in substantial costs to us, and a diversion of our resources and management's attention, whether or not any allegations made are substantiated.
The costs of being publicly owned may strain our resources and impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("Sarbanes-Oxley Act"). The Exchange Act requires that we file annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to our business and financial condition. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls for financial reporting. We are required to document and test our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting.
These requirements may place a strain on our systems and resources and have required us, and may in the future require us, to hire additional accounting and financial resources with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge. In addition, failure to maintain such internal controls could result in us being unable to provide timely and reliable financial information which could potentially subject us to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities or cause us to be late in the filing of required reports or financial results. Any of the foregoing events could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We have a history of operating losses and may incur losses in the future.
For the year ended December 31, 2014, for amounts attributable to the Company, we had a net loss of $13.6 million compared to a net loss of $12.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. We make no assurances that we will be able to operate profitably. As of December 31, 2014, we have a working capital deficit of approximately $12.9 million.
We intend to seek to improve our liquidity and profitability in future years by:
| |
• | leasing our currently-owned healthcare properties, and subleasing our currently-leased healthcare properties, on a triple net basis; |
| |
• | reducing our financial leverage; |
| |
• | renegotiating and restructuring certain of our other corporate level indebtedness to reduce the cost of capital; |
| |
• | refinancing our facility level mortgage indebtedness with lower-cost financing guaranteed by HUD. |
We believe the foregoing actions, if taken, will provide the opportunity for the Company to improve liquidity and achieve profitability. No assurances are made that such improvements or achievements will occur.
Our substantial debt could adversely affect our cash flow and impair our ability to raise additional capital.
As of December 31, 2014, we had approximately $151.4 million in indebtedness, including current maturities and discontinued operations. We may also obtain additional short-term and long-term debt to meet future capital needs, subject to certain restrictions under our existing indebtedness, which would increase our total debt. Our substantial amount of debt could have negative consequences to our business. For example, it could:
| |
• | increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; |
| |
• | require us to dedicate a substantial portion of cash flows from operations to interest and principal payments on outstanding debt, thereby limiting the availability of cash flow to fund working capital and other general corporate requirements; |
| |
• | limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and industry; |
| |
• | place us at a competitive disadvantage compared with our competitors that have less debt; and |
| |
• | limit our ability to borrow additional funds, even when necessary to maintain adequate liquidity. |
In addition, our ability to borrow funds in the future will depend in part on the satisfaction of the covenants in our credit facilities and other debt agreements. If we are unable to satisfy the financial covenants contained in those agreements, or are unable to generate cash sufficient to make required debt payments, the lenders and other parties to those arrangements could accelerate the maturity of some or all of our outstanding indebtedness.
We could be prevented from paying dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock and our common stock.
We are a holding company, and we have no significant operations. We rely primarily on dividends and other distributions from our subsidiaries to us so we may, among other things, pay dividends on our stock, if and to the extent declared by the Board of Directors. The ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends and other distributions to us depends on their earnings and is restricted by the terms of certain agreements governing their indebtedness. If our subsidiaries are in default under such agreements, then they may not pay dividends or other distributions to us.
In addition, we may only pay dividends on our stock if we have funds legally available for the payment of dividends and such payment is not restricted or prohibited by law, the terms of any shares with higher priority with respect to dividends or any documents governing our indebtedness. Furthermore: (i) one of our mortgage loans prohibits the payment of dividends on our stock if we fail to comply with certain financial covenants or if a default or event of default under the loan agreement has occurred; and (ii) another one of our mortgage loans requires the consent of the lender and the guarantor prior to payment of dividends on our stock. As such, we could become unable, on a temporary or permanent basis, to pay dividends on our stock, including our Series A Preferred Stock. In addition, future debt, contractual covenants or arrangements we or our subsidiaries enter into may restrict or prevent future dividend payments.
The payment of any future dividends on our stock will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend, among other things, the earnings and results of operations of our subsidiaries, their ability to pay dividends and other distributions to AdCare under agreements governing their indebtedness, our financial condition and capital requirements, any debt service requirements and any other factors the Board of Directors deems relevant.
The price of our stock, in particular our common stock, has fluctuated, and a number of factors may cause the price of our stock to decline.
The market price of our stock has fluctuated and could fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of various factors and events, many of which are beyond our control. These factors may include:
| |
• | variations in our operating results; |
| |
• | changes in our financial condition, performance and prospects; |
| |
• | changes in general economic and market conditions; |
| |
• | the departure of any of our key executive officers and directors; |
| |
• | announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, or transactions; |
| |
• | press releases or negative publicity relating to us or our competitors or relating to trends in health care; |
| |
• | government action or regulation, including changes in federal, state, and local health-care regulations to which we are subject; |
| |
• | the level and quality of securities analysts' coverage for our stock; |
| |
• | changes in financial estimates or recommendations by securities analysts with respect to us or our competitors; and |
| |
• | with respect to our common stock, future sales of our common stock. |
In addition, the market price of our Series A Preferred Stock will also depend upon:
| |
• | prevailing interest rates, increases in which may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Series A Preferred Stock; |
| |
• | trading prices of preferred equity securities issued by other companies in the industry; |
| |
• | the annual yield from distributions on our Series A Preferred Stock as compared to yields on other financial instruments; and |
| |
• | our issuance of additional preferred equity or debt securities. |
Furthermore, the stock market in recent years has experienced sweeping price and volume fluctuations that often have been unrelated to the operating performance of affected companies. These market fluctuations may also cause the price of our stock to decline.
In the event of fluctuations in the price of our stock, shareholders may be unable to resell shares of our stock at or above the price at which they purchased such shares. Additionally, due to fluctuations in the price of our stock, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful, and you should not rely on past results as an indication of future performance.
Our directors and officers substantially control all major decisions.
Our directors and officers beneficially own approximately 19.2% of our outstanding common stock. Therefore, our directors and officers will be able to influence major corporate actions required to be voted on by shareholders, such as the election of directors, the amendment of our charter documents and the approval of significant corporate transactions such as mergers, reorganizations, sales of substantially all of our assets and liquidation. Furthermore, our directors will be able to make decisions affecting our capital structure, including decisions to issue additional capital stock, implement stock repurchase programs and incur indebtedness. This control may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers, delaying or preventing changes in control or changes in management, or limiting the ability of our other shareholders to approve transactions that they may deem to be in their best interest.
Takeover defense provisions in Georgia law and our charter documents may delay or prevent takeover attempts thereby preventing our shareholders from realizing a premium on their common stock.
Various provisions of Georgia corporation law and of our charter documents may inhibit changes in control not approved by our Board of Directors and may have the effect of depriving our investors of an opportunity to receive a premium over the prevailing market price of our common stock in the event of an attempted hostile takeover. In addition, the existence of these provisions may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. These provisions include:
| |
• | a requirement that special meetings of shareholders be called by our Board of Directors, the Chairman, the President, or the holders of shares with voting power of at least 25%; |
| |
• | staggered terms among our directors with three classes of directors and only one class to be elected each year; |
| |
• | advance notice requirements for shareholder proposals and nominations; and |
| |
• | availability of "blank check" preferred stock. |
Our Board of Directors can use these and other provisions to prevent, delay or discourage a change in control of the Company or a change in our management. Any such delay or prevention of a change in control or management could deter potential acquirers or prevent the completion of a takeover transaction pursuant to which our shareholders could receive a substantial premium over the current market price of our common stock, which in turn may limit the price investors might be willing to pay for our common stock.
Provisions in our charter documents provide for indemnification of officers and directors, which could require us to direct funds away from our business and future operations.
Our charter documents provide for the indemnification of our officers and directors. We may be required to advance costs incurred by an officer or director and to pay judgments, fines and expenses incurred by an officer or director, including reasonable attorneys' fees, as a result of actions or proceedings in which our officers and directors are involved by reason of being or having been an officer or director of our Company. Funds paid in satisfaction of judgments, fines and expenses may be funds we need for the operation and growth of our business.
Risks Related to the Operators of Our Facilities
Our financial position could be weakened and our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders and fulfill our obligations with respect to our indebtedness could be limited if any of the major operators of our long-term care facilities becomes unable to meet its obligations to us or fails to renew or extend its relationship with us as its lease terms expires, or if we become unable to lease or re-lease our facilities on economically favorable terms. We have no operational control over our operators. Adverse developments concerning our operators could arise due to a number of factors, including those listed below.
The bankruptcy, insolvency or financial deterioration of our operators could limit or delay our ability to collect unpaid rents or require us to find new tenants.
We are exposed to the risk that a distressed operator may not be able to meet its obligations to us or other third parties. This risk is heightened during a period of economic or political instability. If tenants are unable to comply with the terms of their leases, then we may be forced to modify the leases in ways that are unfavorable to us. Alternatively, the failure of a tenant to perform under a lease could require us to declare a default, repossess the property, find a suitable replacement tenant, hire third-party
managers to operate the property or sell the property. There is no assurance that we would be able to lease a property on substantially equivalent or better terms than the prior lease, or at all, find another qualified tenant, successfully reposition the property for other uses or sell the property on terms that are favorable to us. It may be more difficult to find a replacement tenant for a healthcare property than it would be to find a replacement tenant for a general commercial property due to the specialized nature of the business. Even if we are able to find a suitable replacement tenant for a property, transfers of operations of skilled nursing facilities, assisted living facilities and other healthcare facilities are subject to regulatory approvals not required for transfers of other types of commercial operations, which may affect our ability to successfully transition a property.
If any lease expires or is terminated, then we could be responsible for all of the operating expenses for that property until it is leased again or sold. If a significant number of our properties are unleased, then our operating expenses could increase significantly. Any significant increase in our operating costs may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders.
Although each of our lease agreements typically provides us with or will provide us with, the right to terminate, evict an operator, foreclose on our collateral, demand immediate payment and exercise other remedies upon the bankruptcy or insolvency of an operator, the U.S. federal Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) would limit or, at a minimum, delay our ability to collect unpaid pre-bankruptcy rents and to pursue other remedies against a bankrupt operator. A bankruptcy filing by one of our lessee operators would typically prevent us from collecting unpaid pre-bankruptcy rents or evicting the operator absent approval of the bankruptcy court. The Bankruptcy Code provides a lessee with the option to assume or reject an unexpired lease within certain specified periods of time. Generally, a lessee is required to pay all rent that becomes payable between the date of its bankruptcy filing and the date of the assumption or rejection of the lease (although such payments will likely be delayed as a result of the bankruptcy filing). Any lessee operator that chooses to assume its lease with us must cure all monetary defaults existing under the lease (including payment of unpaid pre-bankruptcy rents) and provide adequate assurance of its ability to perform its future obligations under the lease. Any lessee operator that opts to reject its lease with us would face a claim by us for unpaid and future rents payable under the lease, but such claim would be subject to a statutory “cap” and would generally result in a recovery substantially less than the face value of such claim. Although the operator’s rejection of the lease would permit us to recover possession of the leased facility, we would likely face losses, costs and delays associated with re-leasing the facility to a new operator.
Several other factors could impact our rights under leases with bankrupt operators. First, the operator could seek to assign its lease with us to a third party. The Bankruptcy Code generally disregards anti-assignment provisions in leases to permit the assignment of unexpired leases to third parties (provided all monetary defaults under the lease are cured and the third party can demonstrate its ability to perform its obligations under the lease). Second, in instances in which we have entered into a master lease agreement with an operator that operates more than one facility, the bankruptcy court could determine that the master lease was comprised of separate, divisible leases (each of which could be separately assumed or rejected), rather than a single, integrated lease (which would have to be assumed or rejected in its entirety). Finally, the bankruptcy court could recharacterize our lease agreement as a disguised financing arrangement, which could require us to receive bankruptcy court approval to foreclose or pursue other remedies with respect to the facility.
Failure by our operators to comply with various local, state and federal government regulations may adversely impact their ability to make lease payments to us.
Healthcare operators are subject to numerous federal, state and local laws and regulations, including those described below, that are subject to frequent and substantial changes (sometimes applied retroactively) resulting from new legislation, adoption of rules and regulations, and administrative and judicial interpretations of existing law. Although we cannot accurately predict the ultimate timing or effect of these changes, such changes could have a material effect on our operators’ costs of doing business and on the amount of reimbursement by both government and other third-party payors. The failure of any of our operators to comply with these laws, requirements and regulations could adversely affect its ability to meet its obligations to us.
| |
• | Healthcare Reform. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively, the “Healthcare Reform Law”), which were signed into law in March 2010, represent the most comprehensive change to healthcare benefits since the inception of the Medicare program in 1965 and affect reimbursement for governmental programs, private insurance and employee welfare benefit plans in various ways. Among other things, the Healthcare Reform Law expands Medicaid eligibility, requires most individuals to have health insurance, establishes new regulations for health plans, creates health insurance exchanges, and modifies certain payment systems to encourage more cost-effective care and a reduction of inefficiencies and waste, including through new tools to address fraud and abuse. We cannot accurately predict the impact of the Healthcare Reform Law on our operators or their ability to meet their obligations to us. |
| |
• | Reimbursement; Medicare and Medicaid. A significant portion of the revenue of the healthcare operators to which we lease, or will lease, properties is, or will be, derived from governmentally-funded reimbursement programs, primarily Medicare and Medicaid. Failure to maintain certification in these programs would result in a loss of funding from such programs and could negatively impact an operator’s ability to meet its obligations to us. |
| |
• | Quality of Care Initiatives. The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) has implemented a number of initiatives focused on the quality of care provided by nursing homes that could affect our operators. Any unsatisfactory rating of our operators under any rating system promulgated by the CMS could result in the loss of residents or lower reimbursement rates, which could adversely impact their revenues and our business. |
| |
• | Licensing and Certification. Healthcare operators are subject to various federal, state and local licensing and certification laws and regulations, including laws and regulations under Medicare and Medicaid requiring operators to comply with extensive standards governing operations. Governmental agencies administering these laws and regulations regularly inspect facilities and investigate complaints. Failure to obtain any required licensure or certification, the loss or suspension of any required licensure or certification, or any violations or deficiencies with respect to relevant operating standards may require a facility to cease operations or result in ineligibility for reimbursement until the necessary licenses or certifications are obtained or reinstated or until any such violations or deficiencies are cured. In such event, our revenues from these facilities could be reduced or eliminated for an extended period of time or permanently. |
| |
• | Fraud and Abuse Laws and Regulations. There are various federal and state civil and criminal laws and regulations governing a wide array of healthcare provider referrals, relationships and arrangements, including laws and regulations prohibiting fraud by healthcare providers. Many of these complex laws raise issues that have not been clearly interpreted by the relevant governmental authorities and courts. In addition, federal and state governments are devoting increasing attention and resources to anti-fraud initiatives against healthcare providers. The violation of any of these laws or regulations by any of our operators may result in the imposition of fines or other penalties, including exclusion from Medicare, Medicaid and all other federal and state healthcare programs. Such fines or penalties could jeopardize an operator’s ability to make lease payments to us or to continue operating its facility, |
| |
• | Privacy Laws. Healthcare operators are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations designed to protect the privacy and security of patient health information. These laws and regulations require operators to expend the requisite resources to protect and secure patient health information, including the funding of costs associated with technology upgrades. Operators found in violation of these laws may face large penalties. In addition, compliance with an operator’s notification requirements in the event of a breach of unsecured protected health information could cause reputational harm to an operator’s business. Such penalties and damaged reputation could adversely affect an operator’s ability to meet its obligations to us. |
| |
• | Other Laws. Other federal, state and local laws and regulations affect how operators conduct their business. We cannot accurately predict the effect that the costs of complying with these laws may have on the revenues of our operators and, thus, their ability to meet their obligations to us. |
| |
• | Legislative and Regulatory Developments. Each year, legislative and regulatory proposals are introduced at the federal, state and local levels that, if adopted, would result in major changes to the healthcare system in addition to those described herein. We cannot accurately predict whether any proposals will be adopted and, if adopted, what effect (if any) these proposals would have on our operators or our business. |
The impact of healthcare reform legislation on us and our operators cannot be accurately predicted.
Several provisions of the Healthcare Reform Law affect Medicare payments to skilled nursing facilities, including provisions changing Medicare payment methodology and implementing value-based purchasing and payment bundling. Although we cannot accurately predict how all of these provisions may be implemented, or the effect any such implementation would have on our operators or our business, the Healthcare Reform Law could result in decreases in payments to our operators, increase our operators’ costs or otherwise adversely affect the financial condition of our operators, thereby negatively impacting their ability to meet their obligations to us.
The Healthcare Reform Law also requires skilled nursing facilities to have a compliance and ethics program that is effective in preventing and detecting criminal, civil and administrative violations and in promoting quality of care. If our operators fall short in their compliance and ethics programs and quality assurance and performance improvement programs, then their reputations and ability to attract residents could be adversely affected.
Other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Healthcare Reform Law was enacted that also may impact our business. For instance, on April 1, 2014, the President signed the Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014, which, among other things, requires CMS to measure, track, and publish readmission rates of skilled nursing facilities by 2017 and implement a value-based purchasing program for skilled nursing facilities (the “SNF VBP Program”) by October 1, 2018. The SNF VBP Program will increase Medicare reimbursement rates for skilled nursing facilities that achieve certain levels of quality performance measures to be developed by CMS, relative to other facilities. The value-based payments authorized by the SNF VBP Program will be funded by reducing Medicare payment for all skilled nursing facilities by 2% and redistributing up to 70% of those funds to high-performing skilled nursing facilities. If Medicare reimbursement provided to our tenants is reduced under the SNF VBP Program, that reduction may have an adverse impact on the ability of our tenants to meet their obligations to us.
Our operators depend on reimbursement from governmental and other third-party payors, and reimbursement rates from such payors may be reduced.
Changes in the reimbursement rate or methods of payment from third-party payors, including the Medicare and Medicaid programs, or the implementation of other measures to reduce reimbursements for services provided by our operators could result in a substantial reduction in the revenues and operating margins of our operators. Significant limits on the scopes of services reimbursed and on reimbursement rates could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations and financial condition of our operators, which could cause their revenues to decline and could negatively impact their ability to meet their obligations to us.
Additionally, net revenue realizable under third-party payor agreements can change after examination and retroactive adjustment by payors during the claims settlement processes or as a result of post-payment audits. Payors may disallow requests for reimbursement based on determinations that certain costs are not reimbursable or reasonable, additional documentation is necessary or certain services were not covered or were not medically necessary. New legislative and regulatory proposals could impose further limitations on government and private payments to healthcare providers. In some cases, states have enacted or are considering enacting measures designed to reduce Medicaid expenditures and to make changes to private healthcare insurance. No assurance is given that adequate third-party payor reimbursement levels will continue to be available for the services provided by our operators.
Government budget deficits could lead to a reduction in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement.
Many states are focusing on the reduction of expenditures under their Medicaid programs, which may result in a reduction in reimbursement rates for our operators. These potential reductions could be compounded by the potential for federal cost-cutting efforts that could lead to reductions in reimbursement to our operators under both the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Reductions in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement to our operators could reduce the cash flow of our operators and their ability to make rent payments to us. The need to control Medicaid expenditures may be exacerbated by the potential for increased enrollment in Medicaid due to unemployment and declines in family incomes. Because the Healthcare Reform Law allows states to increase the number of people who are eligible for Medicaid and simplifies enrollment in this program, Medicaid enrollment may significantly increase in the future. Since our operators’ profit margins with respect to Medicaid patients are generally relatively low, more than modest reductions in Medicaid reimbursement and an increase in the number of Medicaid patients could place some operators in financial distress, which, in turn, could adversely affect us. If funding for Medicare or Medicaid is reduced, then it could have a material adverse effect on our operators’ results of operations and financial condition, which could adversely affect their ability to meet their obligations to us.
We may be unable to find a replacement operator for one or more of our leased properties.
From time to time, we may need to find a replacement operator for one or more of our leased properties for a variety of reasons, including upon the expiration of the lease term or the occurrence of an operator default. During any period in which we are attempting to locate one or more replacement operators, there could be a decrease or cessation of rental payments on the applicable property or properties. No assurance is given that any of our current or future operators will elect to renew its leases with us upon expiration of the terms thereof. Similarly, no assurance is given that we will be able to locate a suitable replacement operator or, if we are successful in locating a replacement operator, that the rental payments from the new operator would not be significantly less than the existing rental payments. Our ability to locate a suitable replacement operator may be significantly delayed or limited by various state licensing, receivership, certificate of need or other laws, as well as by Medicare and Medicaid change-of-ownership rules. We also may incur substantial additional expenses in connection with any such licensing, receivership or change-of-ownership proceedings. Any such delays, limitations and expenses could materially delay or impact our ability to collect rent, obtain possession of leased properties or otherwise exercise remedies for default.
A prolonged economic slowdown could adversely impact our operating income and earnings, as well as the results of operations of our operators, which could impair their ability to meet their obligations to us.
We believe the risks associated with our investments will be more acute during periods of economic slowdown or recession (such as the recent recession) due to the adverse impact caused by various factors, including inflation, deflation, increased unemployment, volatile energy costs, geopolitical issues, the availability and cost of credit, the U.S. mortgage market, a distressed real estate market, market volatility and weakened business and consumer confidence. This difficult operating environment caused by an economic slowdown or recession could have an adverse impact on the ability of our operators to maintain occupancy rates, which could harm their financial condition. Any sustained period of increased payment delinquencies, foreclosures or losses by our operators under our leases could adversely affect our income from investments in our portfolio.
Certain third parties may not be able to satisfy their obligations to us or our operators due to uncertainty in the capital markets.
Interest rate fluctuations, financial market volatility or credit market disruptions could limit the ability of our operators to obtain credit to finance their businesses on acceptable terms, which could adversely affect their ability to satisfy their obligations to us. Similarly, if any of our other counterparties, such as banking institutions, title companies and escrow agents, experiences difficulty in accessing capital or other sources of funds or fails to remain viable, it could have an adverse effect on our business.
Our operators may be subject to significant legal actions that could result in their increased operating costs and substantial uninsured liabilities, which may affect their ability to meet their obligations to us.
As is typical in the long-term healthcare industry, our operators may be subject to claims for damages relating to the services that they provide. We give no assurance that the insurance coverage maintained by our operators will cover all claims made against them or continue to be available at a reasonable cost, if at all. In some states, insurance coverage for the risk of punitive damages may not, in certain cases, be available to operators due to state law prohibitions or limitations of availability. As a result, our operators doing business in these states may be liable for punitive damage awards that are either not covered by their insurance or are in excess of their insurance policy limits.
We also believe that there has been, and will continue to be, an increase in governmental investigations of long-term care providers, particularly in the area of Medicare/Medicaid false claims, as well as an increase in enforcement actions resulting from these investigations. Insurance is not available to our operators to cover such losses. Any adverse determination in a legal proceeding or governmental investigation, whether currently asserted or arising in the future, could have a material adverse effect on an operator’s financial condition. If an operator is unable to obtain or maintain insurance coverage, if judgments are obtained in excess of the insurance coverage, if an operator is required to pay uninsured punitive damages, or if an operator is subject to an uninsurable government enforcement action, then such operator could be exposed to substantial additional liabilities. Such liabilities could adversely affect an operator’s ability to meet its obligations to us.
In addition, we may, in some circumstances, be named as a defendant in litigation involving the services provided by our operators. Although we generally have no involvement in the services provided by our operators, and our standard lease agreements generally require (or will require) our operators to indemnify us and carry insurance to cover us in certain cases, a significant judgment against us in such litigation could exceed our and our operators’ insurance coverage, which would require us to make payments to cover any such judgment.
Increased competition, as well as increased operating costs, could result in lower revenues for some of our operators and may affect their ability to meet their obligations to us.
The long-term healthcare industry is highly competitive, and we expect that it will become more competitive in the future. Our operators are competing with numerous other companies providing similar healthcare services or alternatives such as home health agencies, life care at home, community-based service programs, retirement communities and convalescent centers. Our operators compete on a number of different levels, including the quality of care provided, reputation, the physical appearance of a facility, price, the range of services offered, family preference, alternatives for healthcare delivery, the supply of competing properties, physicians, staff, referral sources, location and the size and demographics of the population in the surrounding areas. We cannot be certain that the operators of all of our facilities will be able to achieve occupancy and rate levels that will enable them to meet all of their obligations to us. Our operators may encounter increased competition in the future that could limit their ability to attract residents or expand their businesses and, therefore, affect their ability to make their lease payments.
In addition, the market for qualified nurses, healthcare professionals and other key personnel is highly competitive, and our operators may experience difficulties in attracting and retaining qualified personnel. Increases in labor costs due to higher wages and greater benefits required to attract and retain qualified healthcare personnel incurred by our operators could affect their ability
to meet their obligations to us. This situation could be particularly acute in certain states that have enacted legislation establishing minimum staffing requirements.
The geographic concentration of some of our facilities could leave us vulnerable to an economic downturn, regulatory changes in those areas.
Our properties are located in different states, with concentrations in Arkansas, Georgia, and Ohio. As a result of this concentration, the conditions of local economies and real estate markets, changes in governmental rules, regulations and reimbursement rates or criteria, changes in demographics, state funding, acts of nature and other factors that may result in a decrease in demand and reimbursement for skilled nursing services in these states could have a disproportionately adverse effect on our tenants’ revenue, costs and results of operations, which may affect their ability to meet their obligations to us.

Leased and Subleased Facilities to Third-Party Operators
As of December 31, 2014, we have leased three owned and subleased five leased skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities to local third-party operators in the states of Alabama and Georgia with the operational capacity of approximately 820 operational beds. These properties are leased and subleased on a triple net basis, meaning that the lessee (i.e., the new third-party operator of the property) is obligated under the lease or sublease, as applicable, for all liabilities of the property in respect to insurance, taxes and facility maintenance, as well as the lease or sublease payments, as applicable.
The following table provides summary information regarding the number of operational beds at our facilities leased and subleased to third-parties as of December 31:

Corporate Office
Our corporate office is located in Roswell, Georgia. We own two office buildings in Roswell which contain approximately 13,700 square feet of office space. In addition, we have a lease and a sublease totaling approximately 5,300 square feet of office space in the Atlanta, Georgia area.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
We are party to various legal actions and administrative proceedings and are subject to various claims arising in the ordinary course of business, including claims that our services have resulted in injury or death to the residents of our facilities and claims related to employment, staffing requirements and commercial matters. Although we intend to vigorously defend ourselves in these matters, there is no assurance that the outcomes of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We operate in an industry that is extremely regulated. As such, in the ordinary course of business, we are continuously subject to state and federal regulatory scrutiny, supervision and control. Such regulatory scrutiny often includes inquiries, investigations, examinations, audits, site visits and surveys, some of which are non-routine. In addition, we believe that there has been, and will continue to be, an increase in governmental investigations of long-term care providers, particularly in the area of Medicare/Medicaid false claims, as well as an increase in enforcement actions resulting from these investigations. Adverse determinations in legal proceedings or governmental investigations against or involving us, whether currently asserted or arising in the future, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
On June 24, 2013, South Star Services, Inc. (“SSSI”), Troy Clanton and Rose Rabon (collectively, the “Plaintiffs”) filed a complaint in the District Court of Oklahoma County, State of Oklahoma against: (i) AdCare, certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries and Boyd P. Gentry, AdCare’s former Chief Executive Officer (collectively, the “AdCare Defendants”); (ii) Christopher Brogdon (a director of the Company, owner of greater than 5% of the outstanding commons stock and a former Chief Acquisition Officer of the Company) and his wife; and (iii) five entities controlled by Mr. and Mrs. Brogdon, which entities own five skilled-nursing facilities located in Oklahoma (the “Oklahoma Facilities”) that are managed by an AdCare subsidiary. The complaint alleges, with respect to the AdCare Defendants, that: (i) the AdCare Defendants tortuously interfered with contractual relations between the Plaintiffs and Mr. Brogdon, and with Plaintiffs’ prospective economic advantage, relating to SSSI’s right to manage the Oklahoma Facilities and seven other skilled-nursing facilities located in Oklahoma (collectively, the “Facilities”), respectively; (ii) the AdCare Defendants fraudulently induced the Plaintiffs to perform work and incur expenses with respect to the Facilities; and (iii) one of the AdCare subsidiaries which is an AdCare Defendant provided false and defamatory information to an Oklahoma regulatory authority regarding SSSI’s management of one of the Oklahoma Facilities. The complaint sought damages against the AdCare Defendants, including punitive damages, in an unspecified amount, as well as costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney fees. On March 7, 2014, the Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint in which they alleged additional facts regarding the alleged fraudulent inducement caused by Mr. and Mrs. Brogdon and the AdCare Defendants. On February 10, 2015, Plaintiffs and the defendants participated in a voluntary mediation in an attempt to resolve the case. Although the case did not settle at the mediation, Plaintiffs and defendants continued to negotiate over the following weeks and executed a settlement agreement on March 30, 2015 (the " Clanton Settlement Agreement") to settle all claims for a lump sum payment of $2,000,000. Under the Clanton Settlement Agreement, the Company is to pay $600,000 to the Plaintiffs with the balance thereof to be paid by two of the Company's insurance carriers. The Company and the other defendants in the matter deny all of the Plaintiff's claims and any wrongdoing but agreed to settle the matter to avoid the continued expense and unpredictability of litigation.
On October 2, 2013, the Company responded to certain letters received from Georgia Department of Community Health ("GDCH") in September 2013 requesting payment of past due provider fees totaling $1.2 million for certain nursing facilities for periods prior to the Company's operation of the facilities. The Company received a final determination from GDCH in April 2014 confirming the Company was responsible for the payment of approximately $0.1 million relating to these past due provider fees. The Company paid these past due provider fees in the second quarter of 2014.
On March 7, 2014 the Company responded to a letter received from the Ohio Attorney General ("OAG") dated February 25, 2014 demanding repayment of approximately $1.0 million as settlement for alleged improper Medicaid payments related to seven Ohio facilities affiliated with the Company. The OAG alleged that the Company had submitted improper Medicaid claims for independent laboratory services for glucose blood tests and capillary blood draws. The Company intends to defend itself against the claims. The Company has not recorded a liability for this matter because the liability, if any, and outcome cannot be determined at this time.
On October 30, 2014, the Company and the prior owner of a certain 118-bed skilled nursing facility located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma entered into a confidential settlement agreement that resolved pending claims between the parties, including breach of contract and tort claims that had been asserted by the Company and\or its affiliates. As a result of the settlement, the Company has not recorded a reserve against any receivable that it contended might be owed.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data
Disclosure pursuant to Item 6 of Form 10-K is not required to be provided by smaller reporting companies.
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
We own, operate and manage for third-parties skilled nursing facilities and assisted living facilities in the states of Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, and South Carolina. As of December 31, 2014, we operate or manage 32 facilities, consisting of 29 skilled nursing facilities, two assisted living facilities and one independent living/senior housing facility totaling approximately 3,600 beds. Our facilities provide a range of health care services to their patients and residents including, but not limited to, skilled nursing and assisted living services, social services, various therapy services, and other rehabilitative and healthcare services for both long-term residents and short-stay patients. As of December 31, 2014, of the total 32 facilities operated, we owned and operated 22 facilities, leased and operated six facilities, and managed four facilities for third-parties.
As of December 31, 2014, the Company also has leased three owned and subleased five leased skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities to local third-party operators in the states of Alabama and Georgia. The patient care revenue, related cost of services, and facility rental expense prior to the commencement of subleasing are classified as discontinued operations.
On February 28, 2013, the Company completed the sale of the facility known as Lincoln Lodge Retirement Residence and used the proceeds to pay the principal balance of the mortgage note with respect to the facility of $1.9 million. The Company recognized a gain on the sale of approximately $0.1 million and cash proceeds, net of costs and debt payoff, of $0.6 million.
On June 11, 2013, the Company completed the sale of its former Springfield, Ohio corporate office building which was sold for the approximate net book value. The Company used the proceeds to pay off the principal balance of the mortgage note with respect to the building of approximately $0.1 million.
On June 12, 2013, the Company entered into two sublease agreements to exit the operations of two skilled nursing facilities located in Tybee Island, Georgia effective June 30, 2013. On December 18, 2013, a sales listing agreement was executed for the 105-bed assisted living facility located in Hoover, Alabama, which is owned by a consolidated variable interest entity. The two skilled nursing facilities located in Tybee Island, Georgia and the assisted living facility located in Hoover, Alabama are reported as discontinued operations (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data").
On March 31, 2014, the Company entered into a representation agreement to sell a 102-bed skilled nursing facility located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to exit the operations. On July 1, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement effective July 1, 2014 to sublease a 52-bed skilled nursing facility located in Thomasville, Georgia to a local nursing home operator. These two facilities are reported as discontinued operations (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data").
On July 23, 2014, we announced that the Board had approved a strategic plan to transition the Company to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions, the Company is in the process of transitioning to third-parties the operations of the Company’s currently owned and operated and leased and operated healthcare facilities, which are principally skilled nursing facilities. In furtherance of this strategic plan, the Company is now focused on the ownership, acquisition and leasing of healthcare related properties.
On September 22, 2014, as part of its ongoing strategic plan, the Company entered into two separate lease agreements to lease two of its skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities in Alabama to a local nursing home operator that commenced on December 1, 2014. These two facilities are reported as discontinued operations (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data").
On September 30, 2014, the lease agreement to operate a 90-bed skilled nursing facility located in Cassville, Missouri expired. The Company elected not to renew the lease agreement consistent with its strategic plan to transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. This facility is reported as discontinued operations (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data").
On October 22, 2014, the Company entered into separate sublease agreements that commenced on November 1, 2014 to sublease a 130-bed skilled nursing facility located in Dublin, Georgia and an 86-bed skilled nursing facility located in Lumber City, Georgia to a local nursing home operator. These two facilities are reported as discontinued operations (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data").
On October 29, 2014 , the Company entered into separate agreements with third-party operators to: (i) lease one of our facilities; (ii) sublease three of our facilities; and (iii) sub-sublease one of our facilities. All of the facilities are located in Ohio and the leases and subleases will commence on the first day of the month after lessees' receipt of: (a) all licenses and other approvals from the State of Ohio to operate the facility; and (b) approval of the lease by HUD.
The Company entered into additional leasing agreements subsequent to December 31, 2014. See Note 20 - Subsequent Events to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" for details of the agreements.
Liquidity
We have access to various cash resources to offset our significant cash needs.
Sources of Liquidity
At December 31, 2014, we had $10.7 million in cash and cash equivalents as well as restricted cash and investments of $8.8 million. During 2015, we anticipate both access to and receipt of several sources of liquidity. At December 31, 2014, we have one facility and one office building held for sale, and one variable interest entity held for sale that we anticipate selling during 2015. We expect that the cash proceeds and the release of restricted cash will approximate the related obligations.
In January 2015, we entered into exclusive listing agreements on the two office buildings located in Roswell, Georgia that we also anticipate selling during 2015. We expect that the cash proceeds will exceed obligations by approximately $0.6 million.
We routinely have ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, have refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs. During 2015, we anticipate net proceeds for working capital of approximately $3.0 million on refinancing of existing debt, primarily in the second and third quarters of 2015.
In July 2014, we announced that the Board of Directors had approved a strategic plan to transition the Company to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions, the Company will transition to third-parties the operations of the Company’s currently owned and operated healthcare facilities, which are principally skilled nursing facilities. The Company is focused on the ownership, acquisition and leasing of healthcare related properties. We estimate cash flow from operations and other working capital changes of approximately $7.8 million for the year ending December 31, 2015.
We maintain certain revolving lines of credit for which we have limited remaining capacity and all of which are due in 2015. Given our transition out of healthcare operations, we do not anticipate any additional draws on these facilities.
Other liquidity sources include but to a lesser extent, the proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants.
Cash Requirements
At December 31, 2014, we had $151.4 million in indebtedness of which the current portion is $33.3 million. This current portion is comprised of the following components: i) convertible debt of approximately $14.0 million, ii) debt of held for sale entities of approximately $11.2 million, primarily senior debt - bond and mortgage indebtedness, and iii) remaining debt of approximately $8.1 million which includes revolver debt, senior debt - bonds, and senior debt - mortgage indebtedness. For a complete debt listing and facility detail, see Note 9, Notes Payable and Other Debt, to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report.
The convertible debt includes two subordinated convertible debt issuances. One was issued in 2012 (the “2012 Notes”) and has an outstanding principal amount of $7.5 million at December 31, 2014 with maturity on July 31, 2015. At any time on or after the six-month anniversary of the date of issuance of the 2012 Notes, the notes are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price equal to $3.97 per share (adjusted for a 5% stock dividend paid on October 22, 2012, and subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar events). The other was issued in 2014 (the “2014 Notes”) and has an outstanding principal amount of $6.5 million at December 31, 2014 with maturity on April 30, 2015. At any time on or after the date of issuance of the 2014 Notes, the notes are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the common stock at an initial conversion price equal to $4.50 per share, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar
events. While management cannot predict with certainty, we anticipate that some holders of the subordinated convertible notes may elect to convert their subordinated convertible notes into shares of common stock provided the common stock continues to trade above the applicable conversion price for such notes.
On March 31, 2015, the Company entered into subscription agreements with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company accepted subscriptions for an aggregate of $8.5 million in principal amount of the Company’s 10% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due April 30, 2017 ("2015 Notes"). In connection therewith, the Company issued approximately $1.7 million in principal amount of 2015 Notes on March 31, 2015, and will issue 2015 Notes for the remaining principal amount of the accepted subscriptions on or before April 30, 2015, upon receipt of payment thereof.
The current debt maturing in 2015 for all other debt approximates $8.1 million . As indicated previously, we routinely have ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, have refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs. We anticipate net principal disbursements of approximately $5.1 million which reflect the offset of anticipated proceeds on refinancing of approximately $3.0 million.
We anticipate our operating cash requirements as being substantially less than in 2014 due to the transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Based on the described sources of liquidity and related cash requirements, we expect sufficient funds for our operations, scheduled debt service, and capital expenditures at least through the next 12 months. On a longer term basis, at December 31, 2014 we have approximately $74.4 million of debt maturities due between 2015 and 2017, excluding convertible promissory notes which are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock. We have been successful in recent years in raising new equity capital and believe, based on recent discussions that these markets will continue to be available to us for raising capital in 2015 and beyond. We believe our long-term liquidity needs will be satisfied by these same sources, as well as borrowings as required to refinance indebtedness.
In order to satisfy our capital needs, we seek to: (i) improve our operating results through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions with favorable terms and consistent and predictable cash flow; (ii) expand our borrowing arrangements with certain existing lenders; (iii) refinance current debt where possible to obtain more favorable terms; and (iv) raise capital through the issuance of debt or equity securities. We anticipate that these actions, if successful, will provide the opportunity for us to maintain liquidity on a short and long term basis, thereby permitting us to meet our operating and financing obligations for the next 12 months. However, there is no guarantee that such actions will be successful or that anticipated operating results will be achieved. We currently have limited borrowing availability under our existing revolving credit facilities. If the Company is unable to improve operating results, expand existing borrowing agreements, refinance current debt, the convertible promissory notes due July 31, 2015 are not converted into shares of the Company's common stock and are required to be repaid by us in cash, or raise capital through the issuance of securities, then the Company may be required to restructure its outstanding indebtedness, implement further cost reduction initiatives or sell assets.
Acquisitions
The Company had no acquisitions during the years ended December 31, 2014 or 2013.

Segments
Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2012, we only evaluate operating performance for our 29 skilled nursing facilities, our remaining two assisted living facilities and one independent living facility on a combined basis. Accordingly, management discussion and analysis on a segment basis is not included herein.
Primary Performance Indicators
We focus on two primary indicators in evaluating our financial performance. Those indicators are facility average occupancy and patient mix. Facility average occupancy is important as higher occupancy generally leads to higher revenues. In addition, concentrating on increasing the number of Medicare covered admissions ("the patient mix") helps in increasing revenues. We include commercial insurance covered admissions that are reimbursed at the same level as those covered by Medicare in our Medicare utilization percentages and analysis.
The tables below reflect our patient care revenue key performance indicators for our skilled nursing facilities ("SNF"), excluding discontinued operations, for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 . Excluding discontinued operations, our assisted living facilities represent approximately 1.5% of our total consolidated revenues for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

Total | | 100.0 | % | | 100.0 | % |
Medicare reimbursement rates and procedures are subject to change from time to time, which could materially impact our revenue. Medicare reimburses our SNFs under a prospective payment system (“PPS”) for certain inpatient covered services. Under the PPS, facilities are paid a predetermined amount per patient, per day, based on the anticipated costs of treating patients. The amount to be paid is determined by classifying each patient into a resource utilization group (“RUG”) category that is based upon each patient’s acuity level. In October 2010, the number of RUG categories was expanded from 53 to 66 as part of the implementation of the RUGs IV system and the introduction of a revised and substantially expanded patient assessment tool called the Minimum Data Set, version 3.0. Should future changes in skilled nursing facility payments reduce rates or increase the standards for reaching certain reimbursement levels, our Medicare revenues could be reduced and/or our costs to provide those services could increase, with a corresponding adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
On July 31, 2014, CMS issued its final rule outlining fiscal year 2015 Medicare payment rates for skilled nursing facilities. CMS estimates that aggregate payments to skilled nursing facilities will increase by $750 million, or 2% for fiscal year 2015, relative to payments in 2014. The estimated increase reflects a 2.5% market basket increase, reduced by the 0.5% multi-factor productivity (MFP) adjustment required by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA).
On July 31, 2013, CMS issued its final rule outlining fiscal year 2014 Medicare payment rates for skilled nursing facilities. CMS estimated that aggregate payments to skilled nursing facilities would increase by $470 million, or 1.3% for fiscal year 2014, relative to payments in 2013. This estimated increase is attributable to a 2.3% market basket increase, reduced by the 0.5% forecast error correction and further reduced by the 0.5% multi-factor productivity adjustment (MFP) as required by PPACA. The forecast error correction is applied when the difference between the actual and projected market basket percentage change for the most recent available fiscal year exceeds the 0.5% threshold. In its 2014 report to Congress, the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission recommended eliminating the market basket update and reducing payments through the SNF prospective payments system.
On July 27, 2012, CMS announced a final rule updating Medicare skilled nursing facility PPS payments in fiscal year 2013. The update, a 1.8% or $670 million increase, reflected a 2.5% market basket increase, reduced by a 0.7% MFP adjustment mandated by the PPACA. This increase was offset by the 2% sequestration reduction, which became effective April 1, 2013.
On April 1, 2014, the President signed into law the Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014, which averted a 24% cut in Medicare payments to physicians and other Part B providers until March 31, 2015. In addition, this law maintains the 0.5% update for such services through December 31, 2014 and provides a 0.0% update to the 2015 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS) through March 31, 2015. Among other things, this law provides the framework for implementation of a value-based purchasing program for skilled nursing facilities. Under this legislation HHS is required to develop by October 1, 2016 measures and performance standards regarding preventable hospital readmission from skilled nursing facilities. Beginning October 1, 2018, HHS will withhold 2% of Medicare payments to all skilled nursing facilities and distribute this pool of payment to skilled nursing facilities as incentive payments for preventing readmissions to hospitals.
The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 was signed into law on February 22, 2012, extending the Medicare Part B outpatient therapy cap exceptions process through December 31, 2012. The statutory Medicare Part B outpatient therapy cap for occupational therapy (“OT”) was $1,880 for 2012, and the combined cap for physical therapy (“PT”) and speech-language pathology services (“SLP”) was also $1,880 for 2012. This is the annual per beneficiary therapy cap amount determined for each calendar year. Similar to the therapy cap, Congress established a threshold of $3,700 for PT and SLP services combined and another threshold of $3,700 for OT services. All therapy services rendered above the $3,700 amount are subject to manual medical review and may be denied unless pre-approved by the provider’s Medicare Administrative Contractor. The law requires an exceptions process to the therapy cap that allows providers to receive payment from Medicare for medically necessary therapy services above the therapy cap amount. Beginning October 1, 2012, some therapy providers may submit requests for exceptions (pre-approval for up to 20 therapy treatment days for beneficiaries at or above the $3,700 threshold) to avoid denial of claims for services above the threshold amount. The $3,700 figure is the defined threshold that triggers the provision for an exception request. Prior to October 1, 2012, there was no provision for an exception request when the threshold was exceeded.
On January 2, 2013, the President signed the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 into law. This statute creates a Commission of Long Term Care, the goal of which is to develop a plan for the establishment, implementation, and financing of a comprehensive, coordinated, and high-quality system that ensures the availability of recommendations from this commission may have an impact on coverage and payment for our services.
Should future changes in PPS include further reduced rates or increased standards for reaching certain reimbursement levels (including as a result of automatic cuts tied to federal deficit cut efforts or otherwise), our Medicare revenues derived from our skilled nursing facilities) could be reduced, with a corresponding adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operation.
We also derive a substantial portion of our consolidated revenue from Medicaid reimbursement, primarily through our skilled nursing business. Medicaid programs are administered by the applicable states and financed by both state and federal funds. Medicaid spending nationally has increased significantly in recent years, becoming an increasingly significant component of state budgets. This, combined with slower state revenue growth and other state budget demands, has led both the federal government to institute measures aimed at controlling the growth of Medicaid spending (and in some instances reducing it).
Historically, adjustments to reimbursement under Medicare and Medicaid have had a significant effect on our revenue and results of operations. Recently enacted, pending and proposed legislation and administrative rulemaking at the federal and state levels could have similar effects on our business. Efforts to impose reduced reimbursement rates, greater discounts and more stringent cost controls by government and other payors are expected to continue for the foreseeable future and could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, any delay or default by the federal or state governments in making Medicare and/or Medicaid reimbursement payments could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Average occupancy and reimbursement rates at the Company’s skilled nursing facilities for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:

Critical Accounting Policies
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis we review our judgments and estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to doubtful accounts, income taxes, stock compensation, intangible assets and loss contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience, business knowledge and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time. Actual results may vary from our estimates. These estimates are evaluated by management and revised as circumstances change. We believe that the following represents our critical accounting policies:
Consolidation with Entities in Which We Have Determined to Have a Controlling Financial Interest
Arrangements with other business enterprises are evaluated, and those in which AdCare is determined to have controlling financial interest are consolidated. Guidance is provided by FASB ASC Topic 810-10, Consolidation—Overall, which addresses the consolidation of business enterprises to which the usual condition of consolidation (ownership of a majority voting interest) does not apply. This interpretation focuses on controlling financial interests that may be achieved through arrangements that do not involve voting interests. It concludes that, in absences of clear control through voting interests, a company's exposure (variable interest) to the economic risks and potential rewards from the variable interest entity's assets and activities are the best evidence of control. If an enterprise holds a majority of the variable interests of an entity, it would be considered the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is required to consolidate the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the variable interest entity in its financial statements.
We have evaluated and concluded that as of December 31, 2014, we have one relationship with a variable interest entity in which we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary required to consolidate the entity (see Note 15 - Variable Interest Entity to our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data").
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when the following four conditions have been met: (i) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred or service has been rendered; (iii) the price is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collection is reasonably assured. The Company's revenue is derived primarily from providing healthcare services to residents and is recognized on the date services are provided at amounts billable to the individual. For reimbursement arrangements with third-party payors, including Medicaid, Medicare and private insurers, revenue is recorded based on contractually agreed-upon amounts on a per patient, daily basis.
Revenue from the Medicaid and Medicare programs accounted for 84% of our revenue for each of the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The Company records revenue from these governmental and managed care programs as services are performed at their expected net realizable amounts under these programs. The Company's revenue from governmental and managed care programs is subject to audit and retroactive adjustment by governmental and third-party agencies. Consistent with healthcare industry accounting practices, any changes to these governmental revenue estimates are recorded in the period the change or adjustment becomes known based on final settlement. We recorded retroactive adjustments to revenue which were not material to our consolidated revenue for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
The Company, as lessor, makes a determination with respect to each of its leases whether they should be accounted for as operating leases. The Company recognizes rental revenues on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease when collectibility is reasonably assured. Differences between rental income earned and amounts due under the lease are charged or credited, as applicable, to straight-line rent receivable, net. Payments received under operating leases are accounted for in the statements of operations as rental revenue for actual rent collected plus or minus a straight-line adjustment for estimated minimum lease escalators.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from Medicaid and Medicare programs, other government programs, managed care health plans and private payor sources. Estimated provisions for doubtful accounts are recorded to the extent it is probable that a portion or all of a particular account will not be collected.
Accounts receivable are reported net of allowances for doubtful accounts. The administrators and managers of our facilities evaluate the collectibility of accounts; Corporate management reviews the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on a monthly basis, and adjustments are made if necessary.
Asset Impairment
The Company reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets that are held and used in our operations for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is determined based upon expected undiscounted future net cash flows from the operations to which the assets relate, utilizing management’s best estimate, appropriate assumptions, and projections at the time. If the carrying value is determined to be unrecoverable from future operating cash flows, the asset is deemed impaired and an impairment loss would be recognized to the extent the carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value of the asset. We estimate the fair value of assets based on the estimated future discounted cash flows of the asset. Management has evaluated its long-lived assets and has identified asset impairment during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
The Company tests indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the intangible asset may not be recoverable.
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill is subject to annual testing for impairment. In addition, goodwill is tested for impairment if events occur or circumstances change that would reduce the fair value of a facility below its carrying amount. The Company performs its annual test for impairment during the fourth quarter of each year. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recognized a goodwill impairment charge of approximately $0.8 million on a facility located in Tulsa, Oklahoma acquired in 2012 which is reflected in loss from discontinued operations. The impairment charge was a result of the required goodwill impairment test that requires the goodwill to be written down to the estimate of the implied fair value (see Note 6 - Intangible Assets and Goodwill to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.").
The Company's asset impairment analysis is consistent with the fair value measurements described in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recognized a $0.5 million impairment charge to write down the carrying value of certain lease rights, equipment, and leasehold improvement values of a facility located in Thomasville, Georgia and an impairment charge of $0.7 million to write down the carrying value of certain lease rights, equipment, and leasehold improvement values related to two facilities located in Tybee Island, Georgia. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded an impairment of $1.8 million related to an adjustment to the fair value less the cost to sell the 102-bed nursing facility located in Tulsa, Oklahoma (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data"). The impairment charge represents a change in fair value from the carrying value.
Self-Insurance Accruals
Effective October 1, 2012, the Company is self-insured for employee medical claims (in all states except for Oklahoma, where the Company participates in the Oklahoma state subsidy program) and has a large deductible workers' compensation plan (in all states except for Ohio, where workers' compensation is covered under a premium-only policy provided by the Ohio Bureau of Worker's Compensation, a state funded program required by Ohio's monopolistic workers' compensation system). Determining reserves for healthcare losses and costs that we have incurred as of the end of a reporting period involves significant judgments based upon our experience and our expectations of future events, including projected settlements for pending claims, known incidents which we expect may result in claims, estimates of incurred but not yet reported claims, expected changes in premiums for insurance provided by insurers whose policies provide for retroactive adjustments, estimated litigation costs and other factors. Since these reserves are based on estimates, the actual expenses we incur may differ from the amount reserved. We regularly adjust these estimates to reflect changes in the foregoing factors, our actual claims experience, recommendations from our professional consultants, changes in market conditions and other factors; it is possible that such adjustments may be material.
Business Combinations
The Company follows FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations ("ASC 805"), which establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the acquiree as well as the goodwill acquired or gain recognized in a bargain purchase. The guidance also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The Company incurred acquisition costs of approximately $0.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2013 and no acquisition costs during the year ended December 31, 2014 as discussed in Note 10 - Acquisitions of the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." ASC 805 requires that we make certain valuations to determine the fair value of assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Such valuations require us to make significant estimates, judgments and assumptions, including projections of future events and operating performance.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation” ("ASC 718"), previously referred to as Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R - Share-based Payments which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards either modified or granted to employees and directors based upon estimated fair values. The Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model, consistent with the provisions of ASC 718, was used to determine the fair value of each option granted. Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. The Company uses projected volatility rates, which are based upon historical volatility rates, trended into future years. Because the Company's stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of our options.
Income Taxes
As required by ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes ("ASC 740"), the Company establishes deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of our assets and liabilities at tax rates in effect when such temporary differences are expected to reverse. We generally expect to fully utilize our deferred tax assets; however, when necessary, we record a valuation allowance to reduce our net deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. At December 31, 2014, the Company has a valuation allowance of approximately $16.7 million. In future periods, we will continue to assess the need for and adequacy of the remaining valuation allowance. We follow the relevant ASC 740 guidance when accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The guidance provides information and procedures for financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, in tax returns.
In determining the need for a valuation allowance, the annual income tax rate, or the need for and magnitude of liabilities for uncertain tax positions, we make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions are based on, among other things, knowledge of operations, markets, historical trends and likely future changes and, when appropriate, the opinions of advisors with knowledge and expertise in certain fields. Due to certain risks associated with our estimates and assumptions, actual results could differ.
In early 2014, the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") initiated an examination of the Company's income tax return for the 2011 income tax year. On May 7, 2014, the IRS completed and closed the examination and no changes were required to the Company's 2011 income tax return.
In October 2014, the Georgia Department of Revenue ("GDOR") initiated an examination of the Company's Georgia income tax returns and net worth returns for the 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013 tax years. To date, the GDOR has not proposed any adjustments.
The Company is not currently under examination by any other major income tax jurisdiction.

Patient Care Revenues—Total patient care revenues increased by $7.2 million, or 4%, to $190.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared with $182.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The $7.2 million increase is primarily due to an increase in skilled patient mix percentage from 15.3% to 16.1%, increases in average Medicare reimbursement rate per patient day from $448.93 to $460.93, or 2.7%, an increase in facility occupancy rate from 78.5% to 80.4%, and increases in average Medicaid reimbursement rates per patient day from $161.45 to $161.88, or 0.3%, compared to 2013.
Rental Revenues—Total rental revenue increased by $1.0 million , or 109% , to $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared with $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The $1.0 million increase is primarily due to leasing three owned skilled nursing facilities and subleasing five leased skilled nursing facilities during 2014 compared with only subleased three skilled nursing facilities during 2013.
Management Revenues—Management revenues (net of eliminations) decreased by $0.6 million, or 29%. The decrease is primarily due to the discontinuance of a management agreement effective as of March 1, 2014 (see Note 19 - Related Party Transactions to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data").
Cost of Services (exclusive of facility rent and depreciation and amortization shown separately)—Cost of services increased by $0.0 million, or 4%, in 2014 as compared with 2013. The increase in cost of services is primarily due to: (i) an increase of approximately $2.0 million in pharmacy and therapy expenses and an increase of approximately $0.7 million in nursing expenses due to increased occupancy and skilled patient mix; (ii) an increase of approximately $1.3 million in dietary, housekeeping and plant operations expenses; (iii) an increase of approximately $1.3 million in employee benefits; (iv) an increase of approximately $1.1 million in property, general liability and other insurance expenses; and (v) an increase of approximately $0.5 million in regulatory and other expenses. Cost of services as a percentage of patient care revenue were 0.1% at both December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
General and Administrative—General and administrative costs decreased by $3.5 million to $15.5 million in 2014 from $19.0 million in 2013. The decrease is primarily due to the following: (i) a decrease in salaries, wages and employee benefits expenses of approximately $1.8 million due to the Company’s transition from an operator of skilled nursing and assisted living facilities to a healthcare property holding and leasing company; (ii) a decrease of approximately $0.6 million in accounting and auditing expenses; (iii) a decrease of approximately $0.4 million in board of director fees; (iv) a decrease of approximately $0.3 million in travel expenses; (v) a decrease of approximately $0.3 million in recruiting costs; and (vi) a decrease of approximately $0.1 million in contract services expense. As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative costs declined to 8.0% in 2014 compared with 10.2% in 2013, reflecting continued strategies to reduce general and administrative costs and the Transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company.
Audit Committee Investigation Expense—As previously disclosed, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Audit Committee"), in consultation with management, concluded in March 2013 that: (i) the Company’s previously issued financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2012, June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2012 (the “Relevant Financial Statements”) should no longer be relied upon due to errors in the Relevant Financial Statements identified in connection with
the audit of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012; and (ii) the Company would restate the Relevant Financial Statements. The Audit Committee initiated a further review of, and inquiry with respect to, the accounting and financial issues related to these and other potential errors and engaged counsel to assist the Audit Committee with such matters. The Audit Committee completed its inquiry in April 2013 and, in connection therewith, assisted in the correction of certain errors relating to accounting and financial matters and identified certain material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, including weakness in the Company’s ability to appropriately account for complex or non-routine transactions and in the quality and sufficiency of the Company’s finance and accounting resources. On July 8, 2013, the Company restated the Relevant Financial Statements by filing with the SEC amendments to its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for the quarters ended March 31, 2012, June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2012.
In connection with the restatement process and the Audit Committee’s review and inquiry during 2013, the Company incurred significant professional services costs and other expenses which have been recognized as a special charge totaling approximately $2.4 million for the year ending December 31, 2013. The Company did not incur any additional expenses during 2014 relating to the audit committee investigation.
Facility Rent Expense—Facility rent expense was approximately $7.1 million for 2014 compared with $6.3 million in 2013. The increase is due to the Company’s transition from an operator of skilled nursing and assisted living facilities to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. The Company had three subleased facilities during 2013 that were included in discontinued operations.
Depreciation and Amortization—Depreciation and amortization increased by $0.4 million in 2014 compared with 2013. The increase is primarily due to the finalization of planned renovations at several skilled nursing facilities and the addition of fixed assets during 2014.
Salary Retirement and Continuation Costs—Salary Retirement and Continuation Costs increased by $2.5 million to $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared with $0.1 million for the same period in 2013. The Company incurred certain retirement and salary continuation costs related to the Transition of approximately $0.9 million, certain retirement and salary continuation costs related to a separation agreement with a former officer of the Company of approximately $0.9 million, salary continuation costs related to a separation agreement with an officer of the Company of approximately $0.4 million, and approximately $0.4 million related to the amendment to the consulting agreement with the Company's prior Vice Chairman during 2014.
Interest Expense, net—Interest expense, net decreased $1.6 million, or 13% , to $10.8 million for the year ended 2014 compared with $12.4 million for the same period in 2013. The decrease is primarily due to the following: (i) a decrease of approximately $0.9 million relating to the holders of the Company's subordinated convertible promissory notes due August 2014 converting approximately $4.8 million of principal and accrued and unpaid interest outstanding under such notes into shares of common stock; (ii) a decrease of approximately $0.4 million due to the Company's payment of the remaining outstanding principal amount of $4.0 million under the Company's subordinated convertible promissory notes due March 2014; (iii) a decrease of approximately $0.2 million relating to the repayment of the outstanding bonds on March 3, 2014 at par plus accrued interest in the amount of $3.1 million from funds that were previously deposited into a restricted defeased bonds escrow account; and (iv) a decrease of approximately $0.1 million relating to interest savings from the 2014 refinancings of certain senior debt guaranteed by HUD.
Acquisition Costs, Net of Gains—The Company incurred minimal expense for acquisition costs during 2014 compared with $0.6 million for 2013. The decrease is a result of limited acquisition activity and the Company's transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company.
Derivative Gain—There was no derivative gain during 2014 compared to the gain of $3.0 million in 2013. The derivative is a product of a convertible debt instrument entered into during the third quarter of 2010. The expense associated with the derivative is subject to volatility based on a number of factors, including increases or decreases in our stock price. Increases in our stock price generally result in increases in expense. Conversely, a decrease in our stock price generally results in the recognition of a gain in our statements of operations. The expense or gain recognized in a period is based on the fair value of the derivative instrument at the end of the year in comparison to the beginning of the year. The Company amended the debt instruments in October 2013 to eliminate the derivative feature, among other items. Consequently, the fair value of the derivative instrument was eliminated as of October 2013.
Loss on Debt Extinguishment—Loss on extinguishment of debt increased by $1.7 million to $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared with the loss of $0.1 million for the same period in 2013. The $1.8 million loss is due to the difference between the conversion price and the market price on the date the subordinated convertible promissory notes were converted into shares of common stock during 2014.
Loss on Legal Settlement—For the year ended December 31, 2014, loss on legal settlement was $0.6 million compared with no expense for the same period in 2013. This $0.6 million loss is due to the settlement of the claims filed in the District Court of Oklahoma County, State of Oklahoma on June 24, 2013. On March 30, 2015, a settlement agreement was executed to settle all claims for a lump sum payment of $2.0 million. Under the settlement agreement, the Company is to pay $0.6 million to the Plaintiffs with the balance thereof to be paid by two of the Company's insurance carriers. The Company and the other defendants in the matter deny all of the Plaintiff's claims and any wrongdoing but agreed to settle the matter to avoid the continued expense and unpredictability of litigation (for further information, see Part I, Item 3., "Legal Proceedings").
Other Expense—For the year ended December 31, 2014, other expense was $0.9 million compared with $0.3 million for the same period in 2013. In 2014, the Company incurred approximately $0.3 million of costs associated with the transition to a healthcare property and holding company and approximately $0.3 million of legal fees associated with on-going litigation matters.
Income Tax Expense—The Company recognized an income tax expense of approximately $0.1 million for both years ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have access to various cash resources to offset our significant cash needs.
Sources of Liquidity
At December 31, 2014, we had $10.7 million in cash and cash equivalents as well as restricted cash and investments of $8.8 million. During 2015, we anticipate both access to and receipt of several sources of liquidity. At December 31, 2014, we have one facility and one office building held for sale, and one variable interest entity held for sale that we anticipate selling during 2015. We expect that the cash proceeds and the release of restricted cash will approximate the related obligations.
In January 2015, we entered into exclusive listing agreements on the two office buildings located in Roswell, Georgia that we also anticipate selling during 2015. We expect that the cash proceeds will exceed obligations by approximately $0.6 million.
We routinely have ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, have refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs. During 2015, we anticipate net proceeds for working capital of approximately $3.0 million on refinancing of existing debt, primarily in the second and third quarters of 2015.
In July 2014, we announced that the Board of Directors had approved a strategic plan to transition the Company to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions, the Company will transition to third-parties the operations of the Company’s currently owned and operated healthcare facilities, which are principally skilled nursing facilities. The Company is focused on the ownership, acquisition and leasing of healthcare related properties. We estimate cash flow from operations and other working capital changes of approximately $7.8 million for the year ending December 31, 2015.
We maintain certain revolving lines of credit for which we have limited remaining capacity and all of which are due in 2015. Given our transition out of healthcare operations, we do not anticipate any additional draws on these facilities.
Other liquidity sources include but to a lesser extent, the proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants.
Cash Requirements
At December 31, 2014, we had $151.4 million in indebtedness of which the current portion is $33.3 million. This current portion is comprised of the following components: i) convertible debt of approximately $14.0 million, ii) debt of held for sale entities of approximately $11.2 million, primarily senior debt - bond and mortgage indebtedness, and iii) remaining debt of approximately $8.1 million which includes revolver debt, senior debt - bonds, and senior debt - mortgage indebtedness. For a complete debt listing and facility detail, see Note 9, Notes Payable and Other Debt, to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report.
The convertible debt includes two subordinated convertible debt issuances. One was issued in 2012 (the “2012 Notes”) and has an outstanding principal amount of $7.5 million at December 31, 2014 with maturity on July 31, 2015. At any time on or after the six-month anniversary of the date of issuance of the 2012 Notes, the notes are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price equal to $3.97 per share (adjusted for a 5% stock dividend paid on October 22, 2012, and subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar events). The other was issued in 2014 (the “2014 Notes”) and has an outstanding principal amount of $6.5 million at December 31, 2014 with maturity on April 30, 2015. At any time on or after the date of issuance of the 2014 Notes, the notes are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the common stock at an initial conversion price equal to $4.50 per share, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar events. While management cannot predict with certainty, we anticipate that some holders of the subordinated convertible notes may elect to convert their subordinated convertible notes into shares of common stock provided the common stock continues to trade above the applicable conversion price for such notes.
On March 31, 2015, the Company entered into subscription agreements with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company accepted subscriptions for an aggregate of $8.5 million in principal amount of the Company’s 10% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due April 30, 2017 ("2015 Notes"). In connection therewith, the Company issued approximately $1.7 million in principal amount of 2015 Notes on March 31, 2015, and will issue 2015 Notes for the remaining principal amount of the accepted subscriptions on or before April 30, 2015, upon receipt of payment thereof.
The current debt maturing in 2015 for all other debt approximates $8.1 million. As indicated previously, we routinely have ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, have refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs. We anticipate net principal disbursements of approximately $5.1 million which reflect the offset of anticipated proceeds on refinancing of approximately $3.0 million.
We anticipate our operating cash requirements as being substantially less than in 2014 due to the transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Based on the described sources of liquidity and related cash requirements, we expect sufficient funds for our operations, scheduled debt service, and capital expenditures at least through the next 12 months. On a longer term basis, at December 31, 2014 we have approximately $74.4 million of debt maturities due between 2015 and 2017, excluding convertible promissory notes which are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock. We have been successful in recent years in raising new equity capital and believe, based on recent discussions that these markets will continue to be available to us for raising capital in 2015 and beyond. We believe our long-term liquidity needs will be satisfied by these same sources, as well as borrowings as required to refinance indebtedness.
In order to satisfy our capital needs, we seek to: (i) improve our operating results through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions with favorable terms and consistent and predictable cash flow; (ii) expand our borrowing arrangements with certain existing lenders; (iii) refinance current debt where possible to obtain more favorable terms; and (iv) raise capital through the issuance of debt or equity securities. We anticipate that these actions, if successful, will provide the opportunity for us to maintain liquidity on a short and long term basis, thereby permitting us to meet our operating and financing obligations for the next 12 months. However, there is no guarantee that such actions will be successful or that anticipated operating results will be achieved. We currently have limited borrowing availability under our existing revolving credit facilities. If the Company is unable to improve operating results, expand existing borrowing agreements, refinance current debt, the convertible promissory notes due July 31, 2015 are not converted into shares of the Company's common stock and are required to be repaid by us in cash, or raise capital through the issuance of securities, then the Company may be required to restructure its outstanding indebtedness, implement further cost reduction initiatives or sell assets.

Year Ended December 31, 2014
Net cash used in operating activities—continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2014, was approximately $6.4 million consisting primarily of our income from operations less changes in working capital, and noncash charges (primarily depreciation and amortization, the derivative gain, share-based compensation, difference between straight-line rent and rent paid, and amortization of debt discounts and related deferred financing costs) all primarily the result of routine operating activity. Net cash provided by operating activities—discontinued operations was approximately $1.1 million.
Net cash provided by investing activities—continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2014, was approximately $2.2 million. This is primarily the result of a decrease in restricted cash deposits while offset by capital expenditures throughout the facilities. Net cash used in investing activities—discontinued operations was approximately $3.0 million related to restricted cash changes and capital expenditures.
Net cash used in financing activities—continuing operations was approximately $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. This is primarily the result of cash proceeds received from additional debt borrowings, partially offset by repayments of existing debt obligations and payments of preferred stock dividends. Net cash used in financing activities—discontinued operations was approximately $0.04 million consisting of repayments of existing debt obligations.
Year Ended December 31, 2013
Net cash provided by operating activities—continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2013, was $0.8 million consisting primarily of our loss from continuing operations less changes in working capital, and noncash charges (primarily depreciation and amortization, the derivative loss, share-based compensation, difference between straight-line rent and rent paid, and amortization of debt discounts and related deferred financing costs) all primarily the result of routine operating activity. Net cash provided by operating activities—discontinued operations was approximately $4.2 million consisting primarily of our loss from discontinued operations less changes in working capital, and noncash charges (primarily depreciation and amortization, loss on goodwill impairment, loss on disposal of assets, and bad debt expense) all primarily the result of routine operating activity.
Net cash used in investing activities—continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2013, was approximately $7.4 million. This is primarily the result of additional restricted cash deposits and capital expenditures throughout the facilities offset by proceeds received from notes receivable. Net cash provided by investing activities—discontinued operations was approximately $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 related to proceeds from the sale of four of the six Ohio assisted living facilities.
Net cash provided by financing activities—continuing operations was approximately $7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. This is primarily the result of cash proceeds received from preferred stock issuances, proceeds received from additional debt borrowings, partially offset by repayments of existing debt obligations and payments of preferred stock dividends. Net cash used in financing activities—discontinued operations was approximately $5.7 million consisting of repayments of existing debt obligations.

Since there was no minimum conversion price resulting in an indeterminate number of shares to be issued in the future, the Company determined an embedded derivative existed that was required to be bifurcated from the 2010 Notes and accounted for separately as a derivative liability recorded at fair value. At the time of initial measurement, the derivative had an estimated fair value of $2.6 million resulting in a discount on the 2010 Notes. The discount was amortized over the term of the 2010 Notes.
Effective October 26, 2013, the Company entered into a Waiver, Amendment and Forbearance with holders of the 2010 convertible notes, pursuant to which the Company and the holders amended: (i) the requirement to adjust the conversion price of the 2010 Notes for dilutive equity issuances (i.e., the "full ratchet and anti-dilution" provision); (ii) extended the maturity date to August 29, 2014; and (iii) adjusted the interest rate to 12.0% per annum. Accordingly, a minimum conversion price of $3.73 was set and a determinate number of shares was established, the result of which was that the embedded derivative ceased to exist. The Company adjusted the carrying value of the derivative to zero as of October 26, 2013.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, holders of the 2010 Notes converted approximately $6.9 million of principal and accrued and unpaid interest outstanding under such notes into shares of common stock at a price of $3.73 per share. The Company recognized a $1.8 million loss on extinguishment of debt during the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 related to the difference between the conversion price and the market price on the date the 2010 Notes were converted into shares of common stock.

Subordinated Convertible Notes Issued in 2011 (the "2011 Notes")
On March 31, 2011, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company sold to them an aggregate of $2.1 million in principal amount of the 2011 Notes. On April 29, 2011, the Company issued an additional $1.8 million in principal amount of the 2011 Notes. On May 6, 2011, the Company issued an additional $0.6 in principal amount of the 2011 Notes. Approximately $1.4 million of the proceeds obtained were used to repay the short-term promissory note that was issued March 31, 2011 and related accrued interest.
The 2011 Notes bore interest at 10% per annum and were payable quarterly in cash in arrears beginning June 30, 2011. The 2011 Notes matured on March 31, 2014. Debt issuance costs of $0.6 million were being amortized over the life of the 2011 Notes.
The 2011 Notes were convertible at the option of the holder into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $4.80 per share (adjusted for a 5% stock dividends paid on October 14, 2011 and October 22, 2012, and subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar events). The 2011 Notes were unsecured and subordinated in right of payment to existing and future senior indebtedness.
On March 28, 2014, certain holders of the 2011 Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $0.4 million surrendered and cancelled such 2011 Notes in payment for 2014 Notes (as discussed and defined below) with an equal principal amount. On March 31, 2014, the Company repaid the remaining outstanding principal amount of $4.0 million for the 2011 Notes plus all interest accrued and unpaid under the 2011 Notes (including those 2011 Notes surrendered and cancelled in payment for 2014 Notes).
Subordinated Convertible Notes Issued in 2012 (the "2012 Notes")
On June 28, 2012, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 28, 2012, with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company sold to them on July 2, 2012 an aggregate of $7.5 million in principal amount of the 2012 Notes. The 2012 Notes bear interest at 8% per annum and such interest is payable quarterly in cash in arrears beginning on September 30, 2012. The 2012 Notes mature on July 31, 2015. The 2012 Notes are unsecured and subordinated in right of payment to existing and future senior indebtedness of the Company. The $7.5 million principal amount of the 2012 Notes includes a refinancing of existing indebtedness of $5.0 million of promissory notes issued to Cantone Asset Management LLC.
At any time on or after the six-month anniversary of the date of issuance of the notes, the notes are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to $3.97 per share (adjusted for a 5% stock dividend paid on October 22, 2012, and subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar events).
If at any time on or after the six-month anniversary date, the weighted average price of the common stock for any 20 trading days within a period of 30 days consecutive trading days equals or exceeds 200% of the conversion price and the average daily trading volume of the common stock during such 20 days exceeds 50,000 shares, then the Company may, subject to the satisfaction of certain other conditions, redeem the notes in cash at a redemption price equal to the sum of 100% of the principal amount being redeemed plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such principal.
In addition, the holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of notes then outstanding may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the notes upon a change of control transaction, at a redemption price in cash equal to 110% of the redemption amount. As of December 31, 2014, the outstanding principal amount of the 2012 Notes is $7.5 million.
Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes Issued in 2014 (the "2014 Notes")
The Company entered into Subscription Agreements with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company sold, on March 28, 2014, an aggregate of $6.5 million in principal amount of the 2014 Notes. The 2014 Notes bear interest at 10.0% per annum and such interest is payable quarterly in cash in arrears beginning on June 30, 2014. The 2014 Notes mature on April 30, 2015. The 2014 Notes are unsecured and subordinated in right of payment to existing and future senior indebtedness of the Company.
At any time on or after the date of issuance of the 2014 Notes, the 2014 Notes are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the common stock at an initial conversion price equal to $4.50 per share, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar events.
The Company may prepay at any time, without penalty, upon 60 days prior notice, any portion of the outstanding principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest thereon with respect to any 2014 Note; provided, however, that: (i) the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of any 2014 Note which is to be so prepaid must be: (a) registered for resale under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"); or (b) otherwise sellable under Rule 144 of the Securities Act without volume limitations thereunder; and (ii) at any time after the issue date of the 2014 Notes, the volume-weighted average price of the common stock for ten consecutive trading days has equaled or exceeded 105% of the then-current conversion price.
In addition, the holders holding a majority of the outstanding principal amount with respect to all the 2014 Notes may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the 2014 Notes upon a change of control at a redemption price equal to the
outstanding principal amount to be redeemed plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Furthermore, upon a change of control, the Company may redeem all or any portion of the 2014 Notes for a redemption price equal to the outstanding principal amount to be redeemed plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.
Park City Capital Offshore Master, Ltd. (“Park City Offshore”), an affiliate of Michael J. Fox, entered into a Subscription Agreement with the Company pursuant to which the Company issued $1.0 million in principal amount of the 2014 Notes. Mr. Fox is a director of Park City Offshore and a director of the Company and beneficial owner of greater than 5% of the outstanding common stock. The 2014 Note was offered to and sold to Park City Offshore on the same terms and conditions as all other buyers in the offering.
Approximately $14.0 million of the scheduled maturities in 2015 relate to the 2012 Notes and the 2014 Notes. While management cannot predict with certainty, we anticipate that some holders of the subordinated convertible notes may elect to convert their subordinated convertible notes into shares of common stock provided the common stock continues to trade above the applicable conversion price for such notes. The conversion prices are $3.97 and $4.50 for the 2012 and 2014 Notes, respectively. If all of the subordinated convertible notes had been converted to common stock at December 31, 2014, then the Company would have been required to issue approximately 4.0 million shares of common stock.
Receivables
Our operations could be adversely affected if we experience significant delays in reimbursement from Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party revenue sources. Our future liquidity will continue to be dependent upon the relative amounts of current assets (principally cash and accounts receivable) and current liabilities (principally accounts payable and accrued expenses). In that regard, accounts receivable can have a significant impact on our liquidity. Continued efforts by governmental and third-party payors to contain or reduce the acceleration of costs by monitoring reimbursement rates, by increasing medical review of bills for services, or by negotiating reduced contract rates, as well as any delay by the staff at our facilities in the processing of our invoices, could adversely affect our liquidity and results of operations.
Accounts receivable attributable to patient services totaled $24.3 million at December 31, 2014, compared to $23.6 million at December 31, 2013, representing approximately 38 and 43 days revenue in accounts receivable as of December 31, 2014 and 2013. The decrease in accounts receivable is primarily the result of continued improvements in collections in 2014.
The allowance for bad debt was $6.7 million and $5.0 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We continually evaluate the adequacy of our bad debt reserves based on patient mix trends, aging of older balances, payment terms and delays with regard to third-party payors, as well as other factors. We continue to evaluate and implement additional processes to strengthen our collection efforts and reduce the incidence of uncollectible accounts.
Inflation
We have historically derived a substantial portion of our revenue from the Medicare program. We also derive revenue from state Medicaid and similar reimbursement programs. Payments under these programs generally provide for reimbursement levels that are adjusted for inflation annually based upon the state's fiscal year for the Medicaid programs and in each October for the Medicare program. These adjustments may not continue in the future, and even if received, such adjustments may not reflect the actual increase in our costs for providing healthcare services.
Labor and supply expenses make up a substantial portion of our cost of services. Those expenses can be subject to increase in periods of rising inflation and when labor shortages occur in the marketplace. To date, we have generally been able to implement cost control measures or obtain increases in reimbursement sufficient to offset increases in these expenses. We may not be successful in offsetting future cost increases.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There were $3.8 million and $2.8 million of outstanding letters of credit at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, that are pledged as collateral of borrowing capacity on the PrivateBank revolver.
Operating Leases
The Company leases certain office space and a total of 11 skilled nursing facilities under non-cancelable operating leases, most of which have initial lease terms of 10 to 12 years with rent escalation clauses and provisions for payments by the Company of real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs; six of the skilled nursing facilities that are leased are still operated by the Company. For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, facility rent expense totaled $7.1 million and $6.3 million, respectively.
Five of the Company's skilled nursing facilities are operated under a single master indivisible lease arrangement. The lease has a term of ten years into 2020. Under the Master Lease (the "Master Lease"), a breach at a single facility could subject one or more of the other facilities covered by the same master lease to the same default risk. Failure to comply with regulations or governmental authorities, such as Medicaid and Medicare provider requirements, is a default under the Company's master lease agreement. In addition, other potential defaults related to an individual facility may cause a default of the entire master lease agreement. With an indivisible lease, it is difficult to restructure the composition of the portfolio or economic terms of the lease without the consent of the landlord. The Company is not aware of any defaults and believes it is in compliance with the covenants of the master lease agreement as of December 31, 2014.
Two of the Company's facilities are operated under a single indivisible lease; therefore, a breach at a single facility could subject the second facility to the same default risk. The lease has a term of 12 years into 2022 and includes covenants and restrictions. The Company is required to make minimum capital expenditures of $375 per licensed bed per lease year at each facility which amounts to $0.1 million per year for both facilities. As of December 31, 2014, the Company is in compliance with all financial and administrative covenants of this lease agreement.
Future minimum lease payments for each of the next five years ending December 31 are as follows:
|
| | | | |
| | (Amounts in 000's) |
2015 | | $ | 7,940 |
|
2016 | | 7,980 |

|
2019 | | 7,861 |
|
Thereafter | | 8,279 |
|
Total | | $ | 48,310 |
|
The Company has also entered into lease agreements for various equipment used in the facilities. These leases are included in future minimum lease payments above.
Leased and Subleased Facilities to Third-Party Operators
In connection with both the Company's strategic plan to transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company and previous leasing and subleasing opportunities, the operations of eight facilities, three owned by us and five leased to us, have been successfully transferred to third-party skilled nursing facility operators as of December 31, 2014. The lease and sublease agreements provide current and future lease receivables the Company recognizes as rental revenues.
In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company entered into a sublease agreement effective December 1, 2012 to exit the operations of a skilled nursing facility located in Jeffersonville, Georgia. The sublease agreement expires on the same day and adheres to all of the terms, covenants, and conditions as the Master Lease.
On June 12, 2013, the Company executed two sublease agreements to exit the skilled nursing business in Tybee Island, Georgia effective June 30, 2013 relating to two facilities. The two sublease agreements expire on the same day and adhere to all of the terms, covenants, and conditions as the Master Lease.
On July 1, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement effective July 1, 2014 to sublease a 52-bed skilled nursing facility located in Thomasville, Georgia to a local nursing home operator. The sublease agreement expires on the same day and adheres to all of the terms, covenants, and conditions as the Master Lease.
On October 22, 2014, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into an agreement to sublease one of its skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities located in Lumber City, Georgia to a local nursing home operator commencing on November 1, 2014. The sublease agreement expires on the same day and adheres to all of the terms, covenants, and conditions as the Master Lease.
On October 22, 2014, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into an agreement to sublease one of its skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities located in Dublin, Georgia to a local nursing home operator commencing on November 1, 2014. The initial term of the sublease agreement expires on the last day of the sixtieth (60th) full calendar month from the commencement date of November 1, 2014 and may be extended for one separate renewal term of five years.
On September 22, 2014, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company entered into separate lease agreements to lease a 182-bed skilled nursing facility located in Attalla, Alabama and a 124-bed skilled nursing facility located in Glencoe, Alabama to a local nursing home operator effective November 1, 2014. The initial term of each lease agreement expires on the last day of the sixtieth (60th) full calendar month from the commencement date of the lease agreement and may be extended for one separate renewal term of five years (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations to our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8., "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data").
Future minimum lease receivables for each of the next five years ending December 31 are as follows:
|

| | (Amounts in 000's) |
2015 | | $ | 5,370 |

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations
Due to the material amount of non-cash related items included in the Company’s results of operations, the Company has developed an Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations”) metric which provides management with a clearer view of operational use of cash (see the table below). The Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $12.4 million and $9.0 million, respectively. The Company has also developed an Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization and Rent (“Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations”) metric that is used primarily in some debt covenants of the Company’s loans.
“Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations” and “Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations” are measures of operating performance that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company defines: (i) “Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations” as net income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (including amortization of non-cash stock-based compensation), acquisition costs (net of gains),
loss on extinguishment of debt, derivative loss or gain, and other non-routine adjustments; and (ii) “Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations” as net income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (including amortization of non-cash stock-based compensation), acquisition costs (net of gains), loss on extinguishment of debt, derivative loss, rent, and other non-routine adjustments. The Company has provided below for your reference, supplemental financial disclosure for these measures, including the most directly comparable GAAP measure (Net Loss) and an associated reconciliation.
The following table provides a reconciliation of reported Loss from continuing operations on a GAAP basis to Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013:

| | $ | 15,329 |
|
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, income from operations or cash flows provided by, or used in, operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations are used by management to focus on operating performance and management without mixing in items of income and expense that relate to the financing and capitalization of the business, fixed rent or lease payments of facilities, derivative loss or gain, certain acquisition related charges and other non-routine adjustments.
The Company believes these measures are useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s performance, results of operations and financial position for the following reasons:
| |
• | They are helpful in identifying trends in the Company’s day-to-day performance because the items excluded have little or no significance to the Company’s day-to-day operations; |
| |
• | They provide an assessment of controllable expenses and afford management the ability to make decisions which are expected to facilitate meeting current financial goals as well as achieve optimal financial performance; and |
| |
• | They provide data that assists management determine whether or not adjustments to current spending decisions are needed. |
AdCare believes that the use of the measures provides a meaningful and consistent comparison of the Company’s underlying business between periods by eliminating certain items required by GAAP, which have little or no significance in the Company’s day-to-day operations.

ADCARE HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business
AdCare Health Systems, Inc. ("AdCare") through its subsidiaries (together, the "Company" or "we"), own, operate, and manage for third-parties skilled nursing facilities and assisted living facilities in the states of Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, and South Carolina. As of December 31, 2014, the Company operates or manages 32 facilities consisting of 29 skilled nursing facilities, two assisted living facilities and one independent living/senior housing facility totaling approximately 3,600 beds. The Company's facilities provide a range of health care services to their patients and residents including, but not limited to, skilled nursing and assisted living services, social services, various therapy services, and other rehabilitative and healthcare services for both long-term residents and short-stay patients. As of December 31, 2014, of the total 32 facilities, the Company owned and operated 22 facilities, leased and operated six facilities, and managed four facilities for third-parties.
As of December 31, 2014, the Company also has leased three owned and subleased five leased skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities to local third-party operators in the states of Alabama and Georgia. The patient care revenue, related cost of services, and facility rental expense prior to the commencement of subleasing are classified as discontinued operations.
On February 28, 2013, the Company completed the sale of the facility known as Lincoln Lodge Retirement Residence and used the proceeds to pay the principal balance of the mortgage note with respect to the facility of $1.9 million. The Company recognized a gain on the sale of approximately $0.1 million and cash proceeds, net of costs and debt payoff, of $0.6 million.
On June 11, 2013, the Company completed the sale of its former Springfield, Ohio corporate office building which was sold for the approximate net book value. The Company used the proceeds to pay off the principal balance of the mortgage note with respect to the building of approximately $0.1 million.
On June 12, 2013, the Company executed two sublease agreements to exit the operations of two skilled nursing facilities located in Tybee Island, Georgia effective June 30, 2013. During the fourth quarter of 2013, Riverchase Village ADK, LLC ("Riverchase"), our consolidated variable interest entity ("VIE"), entered into a sales listing agreement to sell Riverchase Village, a 105-bed assisted living facility located in Hoover, Alabama (see Note 15 - Variable Interest Entity). The two skilled nursing facilities located in Tybee Island, Georgia and the assisted living facility located in Hoover, Alabama are reported as discontinued operations (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations).
During the first quarter of 2014, the Company executed a representation agreement to sell Companions Specialized Care Center ("Companions"), a 102-bed skilled nursing facility located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to exit the operations. This facility is reported as discontinued operations (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations). In March 2015, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement to sell Companions. Closing is expected after completion of customary closing conditions. (See Note 20 - Subsequent Events).
On July 1, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement effective July 1, 2014 to sublease the 52-bed skilled nursing facility located in Thomasville, Georgia to a local nursing home operator. This facility is reported as discontinued operations (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations).
On July 23, 2014, we announced that the Board of Directors (the "Board") had approved a strategic plan to transition the Company to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions, the Company is in the process of transitioning to third-parties the operations of the Company’s currently owned and operated and leased and operated healthcare facilities, which are principally skilled nursing facilities. In furthering this strategic plan, the Company is now focused on the ownership, acquisition and leasing of healthcare related properties..
On September 22, 2014, as part of its ongoing strategic plan, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company entered into two separate lease agreements to lease two of its skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities in Alabama to a local nursing home operator that commenced on December 1, 2014. These two facilities are reported as discontinued operations (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations).
On September 30, 2014, the lease agreement to operate the 90-bed skilled nursing facility located in Cassville, Missouri expired. The Company elected not to renew the lease agreement consistent with its strategic plan to transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. This facility is reported as discontinued operations (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations).
On November 1, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement effective June 1, 2015 to sublease the 134-bed skilled nursing facility located in Glennville, Georgia to a local nursing home operator. This facility is reported as discontinued operations (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations).
On October 22, 2014, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company entered into two separate sublease agreements that commenced on November 1, 2014 to sublease the 130-bed skilled nursing facility located in Dublin, Georgia and the 86-bed skilled nursing facility located in Lumber City, Georgia to a local nursing home operator. These two facilities are reported as discontinued operations (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations).
On October 29, 2014, the Company entered into separate agreements with third-party operators to: (i) lease one of our facilities; (ii) sublease three of our facilities; and (iii) sub-sublease one of our facilities. All of the facilities are located in Ohio and the leases and subleases will commence on the first day of the month after lessees' receipt of: (a) all licenses and other approvals from the State of Ohio to operate the facility; and (b) approval of the lease by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD").
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC").
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported results of operations during the reporting period. Examples of significant estimates include allowance for doubtful accounts, contractual allowances for Medicaid, Medicare, and managed care reimbursements, deferred tax valuation allowance, fair value of derivative instruments, fair value of employee and nonemployee stock based awards, fair value estimation methods used to determine the assigned fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in acquisitions, valuation of goodwill and other long-lived assets, and cash flow projections. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the Company's majority owned and controlled subsidiaries. "VIEs" in which the Company has a variable interest have been consolidated as controlled subsidiaries when the Company is identified as the primary beneficiary. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated through consolidation. For subsidiaries that are not wholly owned by the Company, the portions not controlled by the Company are presented as non-controlling interests in the consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2013 financial information to conform to the 2014 presentation with no effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. These reclassifications did not affect total assets, total liabilities, or stockholders' equity. Reclassifications were made to December 31, 2014 Consolidated Statements of Operations to reflect the same facilities in discontinued operations for both periods presented.
Acquisition Policy
The Company periodically enters into agreements to acquire assets and/or businesses. The consideration involved in each of these agreements may include cash, financing, stock, and/or long-term lease arrangements for real properties. The Company evaluates each transaction to determine whether the acquired interests are assets or businesses. A business is defined as a self-sustaining integrated set of activities and assets conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return to investors. A business consists of (i) inputs, (ii) processes applied to those inputs, and (iii) resulting outputs that are used to generate revenues. In order for an acquired set of activities and assets to be a business, it must contain all of the inputs and processes necessary for it to continue to conduct normal operations after the acquired entity is separated from the seller, including the ability to sustain revenue streams by providing its outputs to customers. An acquired set of activities and assets fails the definition of a business if it excludes one or more of the above items making it impossible to continue normal operations and sustain a revenue stream by providing its products and/or services to customers.
The Company currently operates its skilled nursing facilities in states that are subject to certificate of need ("CON") programs. The CON programs govern the establishment, construction, renovation and transferability of the rights to operate skilled nursing facilities ("SNFs"). In certain states, specifically Ohio, CON programs permit the transferability and sale of bed licenses separately from the facility. In other states, bed licenses are non-transferable separately and apart from the underlying licensed facility. Through acquisitions completed in 2011 and 2012, the Company operates in a number of states, including Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, and South Carolina, where the bed licenses are not transferable separately from the facility.
The CON/bed license arises from contractual rights and is an identifiable intangible asset to which the Company assigns a fair value in transactions accounted for as business combinations. In states where the CON/bed licenses are transferable separately from the facility, the intangible asset has been determined to have an indefinite life. Because the intangible asset is separable from the facility and has separate stand-alone value, for financial reporting purposes, the fair value assigned to the CON/license is classified as a separate intangible asset in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
In states where the CON/bed license is non-transferable separately from the facility, the CON/bed license and building are complimentary assets and therefore, the intangible asset is assigned a definite life and amortized over the estimated remaining useful life of the related building. As complimentary assets, the intangible asset has no value separate from the building and the estimated remaining useful lives of the intangible asset and building are equal. Therefore, the intangible asset and the building are classified together as "buildings" and are included in property and equipment in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the value of such CON bed licenses, net of amortization, was $33.1 million and $35.8 million, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all unrestricted short-term investments with original maturities less than three months, which are readily convertible into cash, to be cash equivalents. Certain cash, cash equivalents and investment amounts are restricted for specific purposes such as mortgage escrow requirements and reserves for capital expenditures on HUD insured facilities and other restricted investments are held as collateral for other debt obligations.
Investments
The Company has certain restricted investments that are limited as to use by certain debt obligations. These investments are classified as held-to-maturity investments because the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold the securities until maturity. Held-to-maturity investments are carried at cost. These restricted investments are classified as noncurrent assets due to their maturity dates and the related restrictions required by the long-term debt obligations.
Revenue Recognition and Patient Care Receivables
The Company recognizes revenue when the following four conditions have been met: (i) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred or service has been rendered; (iii) the price is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collection is reasonably assured. The Company's revenue is derived primarily from providing healthcare services to residents and is recognized on the date services are provided at amounts billable to the individual. For reimbursement arrangements with third-party payors, including Medicaid, Medicare and private insurers, revenue is recorded based on contractually agreed-upon amounts on a per patient, daily basis.
Revenue from the Medicaid and Medicare programs accounted for 83.8% and 83.5% of the Company’s revenue for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company records revenue from these governmental and managed care programs as services are performed at their expected net realizable amounts under these programs. The Company’s revenue from governmental and managed care programs is subject to audit and retroactive adjustment by governmental and third-party agencies. Consistent with healthcare industry accounting practices, any changes to these governmental revenue estimates are recorded in the period the change or adjustment becomes known based on final settlement. The Company recorded retroactive adjustments to revenue which were not material to the Company's consolidated revenue for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
Potentially uncollectible patient accounts are provided for on the allowance method based upon management's evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable at period-end and historical experience. Uncollected accounts that are written off are charged against allowance. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, management recorded an allowance for uncollectible accounts of $6.7 million and $5.0 million, respectively.
Management Fee Receivables and Revenue
Management fee receivables and revenue are recorded in the month that services are provided. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company evaluated collectibility of management fees and determined that no allowance was required.
Rental Revenues and Receivables
The Company, as lessor, makes a determination with respect to each of its leases whether they should be accounted for as operating leases. The Company recognizes rental revenues on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease when collectibility is reasonably assured. Differences between rental income earned and amounts due under the lease are charged or credited, as applicable, to straight-line rent receivable, net. Payments received under operating leases are accounted for in the statements of operations as rental revenue for actual rent collected plus or minus a straight-line adjustment for estimated minimum lease escalators. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company evaluated collectibility of rental revenue and determined that no allowance was required.
Third-party Reimbursement
Payments for Medicaid resident services are calculated and made under a prospective reimbursement system. Payment rates are based on actual cost, limited by certain ceilings, adjusted by a resident service needs factor and updated for inflation. The direct care portion of the rate can be adjusted prospectively for changes in residents' service needs. While interim rates are subject to reconsideration and appeal, once this process is completed, they are not subject to subsequent retroactive adjustment. However, the states in which the Company operates have the opportunity to audit the cost report used to establish the prospective rate. If the state departments discover non-allowable or misclassified costs that resulted in overpayments to the Company, the funds may be recovered by the state departments through the final rate recalculation process. For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, management believes that adequate provisions have been made for potential adjustments.
Payments for Medicare resident services are made under a prospective payment system. There is no retroactive adjustment to allowable cost. The Company is paid one of several prospectively set rates that vary depending on the resident's service needs. Payment rates are established on a federal basis by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS"). The final settlement process is primarily a reconciliation of services provided and rates paid. As a result, no material settlement estimates are expected.
Laws and regulations governing the Medicaid and Medicare programs are complex and subject to interpretation. The Company believes that it is materially in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and is not aware of any pending or threatened investigation involving allegations of potential wrongdoing except as disclosed in Note 16 - Commitments and Contingencies and Note 20 - Subsequent Events. While no such regulatory inquiries have been made, compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation, as well as significant regulatory action including fines, penalties and exclusion from the Medicaid and Medicare programs.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, restricted investments, and accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted investments are held with various financial institutions. From time to time, these balances exceed the federally insured limits. These balances are maintained with high quality financial institutions which management believes limits the risk.
Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of its residents and significant third-party payors with which they contract, and generally does not require collateral. Management believes that credit risk with respect to accounts receivable from residents is limited based on the stature and diversity of the third-party payers with which they contract. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts which management believes is sufficient to cover potential losses. Delinquent accounts receivable are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts once likelihood of collection has been determined. Accounts receivable are considered to be past due and placed on delinquent status based upon contractual terms, how frequently payments are received, and on an individual account basis.
Market Concentration Risk
The Company's operations are concentrated in the long-term care market, which is a heavily regulated environment. The operations of the Company are subject to the administrative directives, rules and regulations of federal and state regulatory agencies, including, but not limited to, CMS, and the Department of Health and Aging in all states in which the Company operates. Such administrative directives, rules and regulations, including budgetary reimbursement funding, are subject to change by an act of Congress, the passage of laws by the General Assembly or an administrative change mandated by one of the executive branch agencies. Such changes may occur with little notice or inadequate funding to pay for the related costs, including the additional administrative burden, to comply with a change.
Given the significant concentration of revenue from third-party payors, including Medicaid and Medicare programs, along with recent healthcare reform and budgetary constraints of governmental agencies, there is potential for reimbursement rate reductions in the near term that could materially and adversely impact the Company's revenue and profitability.
The Company has 96% of its 2,900 skilled nursing facility beds that it owns or leases certified under the Medicaid and Medicare programs. The following is a summary of receivables and revenues by payor source:
|
| | | | | | |
For the Years Ended | | Percent of Long-Term Care Receivables | | Percent of Patient Care Revenue |
Medicaid | | | | |
December 31, 2014 | | 36 | % | | 51 | % |
December 31, 2013 | | 37 | % | | 53 | % |
Medicare | | | | |
December 31, 2014 | | 25 | % | | 33 | % |
December 31, 2013 | | 26 | % | | 31 | % |
Other Payers | | | | |
December 31, 2014 | | 39 | % | | 16 | % |
December 31, 2013 | | 37 | % | | 16 | % |
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for major improvements are capitalized. Depreciation commences when the assets are placed in service. Maintenance and repairs which do not improve or extend the life of the respective assets are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposal of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recorded. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Property and equipment also includes bed license intangibles for states other than Ohio (where the building and bed license are deemed complimentary assets) and are amortized over the life of the building. The Company reviews property and equipment for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of assets may not be recoverable.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded an impairment of $1.8 million related to an adjustment to the fair value less the cost to sell the 102 bed nursing facility located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Companions. We compared the estimated fair value of the assets to their carrying value and recorded an impairment charge for the excess of carrying value over estimated fair value. The assets and liabilities of Companions are included in Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale as of December 31, 2014.
Leases and Leasehold Improvements
At the inception of each lease, the Company performs an evaluation to determine whether the lease should be classified as an operating lease or capital lease. As of December 31, 2014, all of the Company's leased facilities are accounted for as operating leases. For operating leases that contain scheduled rent increases, the Company records rent expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The accumulated difference between the straight-line expense recognition and the actual cash rent paid is reflected in Other Liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and was $1.8 million and $1.6 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The lease term is also used to provide the basis for establishing depreciable lives for buildings subject to lease and leasehold improvements.
Intangible Assets and Goodwill
Intangible assets consist of finite lived and indefinite lived intangibles. The Company's finite lived intangibles include lease rights and certain CON/bed licenses that are not separable from the associated buildings. Finite lived intangibles are amortized over their estimated useful lives. For the Company's lease related intangibles, the estimated useful life is based on the terms of the underlying facility leases, currently averaging approximately ten years. For the Company's CON/bed licenses that are not separable from the buildings, the estimated useful life is based on the building life when acquired with an average estimated useful life of approximately 31 years. The Company evaluates the recoverability of the finite lived intangibles whenever an impairment indicator is present.
The Company's indefinite lived intangibles consist primarily of values assigned to CON/bed licenses that are separable from the buildings. The Company does not amortize goodwill or indefinite lived intangibles. On an annual basis, the Company evaluates the recoverability of the indefinite lived intangibles and goodwill by performing an impairment test. The Company
performs its annual test for impairment during the fourth quarter of each year. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company determined that an impairment adjustment was required for the goodwill recorded when the Company acquired the land, building, improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment of Companions on August 17, 2012. Accordingly, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, which is included in Loss from Discontinued Operations, net of tax. During 2013, the Company recognized a $0.5 million impairment charge to write down the carrying value of certain lease rights, equipment, and leasehold improvement values of a facility located in Thomasville, Georgia and an impairment charge of $0.7 million related to two facilities in Tybee Island, Georgia which is included in Loss from discontinued Operations, net of tax. The impairment charge represents a change in fair value from the carrying value.
Deferred Financing Costs
The Company records deferred financing costs associated with debt obligations. Costs are amortized over the term of the related debt using the straight-line method and are reflected as interest expense. The straight-line method yields results substantially similar to those that would be produced under the effective interest rate method.
Income Taxes and Uncertain Tax Positions
Deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective income tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that included the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for the future tax benefits from net operating loss and other carry forwards. Valuation allowances are recorded for deferred tax assets when the recoverability of such assets is not deemed more likely than not.
Judgment is required in evaluating uncertain tax positions. The Company determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination. If a tax position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold it is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The Company classifies unrecognized tax benefits that are not expected to result in payment or receipt of cash within one year as non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous state and local jurisdictions. In general, the Company's tax returns filed for the 1998 through 2014 tax years are still subject to potential examination by taxing authorities.
In early 2014, the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") initiated an examination of the Company's income tax return for the 2011 income tax year. On May 7, 2014, the IRS completed and closed the examination and no changes were required to the Company's 2011 income tax return.
In October 2014, the Georgia Department of Revenue ("GDOR") initiated an examination of the Company's Georgia income tax returns and net worth returns for the 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013 tax years. To date, the GDOR has not proposed any adjustments.
The Company is not currently under examination by any other major income tax jurisdiction.
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were approximately $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company follows the provisions of ASC topic 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation”, which requires the use of the fair-value based method to determine compensation for all arrangements under which employees and others receive shares of stock or equity instruments (options, warrants or restricted shares). All awards are amortized on a straight-line basis over their vesting terms.
Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments
Accounting guidance establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1— Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2— Other observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
Level 3— Significant unobservable inputs
The respective carrying value of certain financial instruments of the Company approximates their fair value. These instruments include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments, accounts receivable, notes receivable, notes payable and other debt, and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments since they are short-term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values, they are receivable or payable on demand, or the interest rates earned and/or paid approximate current market rates.
Derivative Instruments
The Company generally does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to certain risks. However, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with respect to the issuance of subordinated convertible notes in October 2010 which includes a conversion feature that is not afforded equity classification and embodies risks that are not clearly and closely related to the host debt agreement. As such, this conversion feature was an embedded derivative instrument that was required to be bifurcated from the debt instrument and reported separately as a derivative liability at fair value.
The Company estimated the fair value of the conversion feature derivative instrument by using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model because it embodies the requisite assumptions necessary to estimate the fair value of this instrument. Changes in fair value of this derivative instrument are reported in the consolidated statement of operations.
The Company settled the derivative resulting in a gain of $3.0 million as of October 26, 2013, in conjunction with a Waiver, Amendment and Forbearance with holders of the 2010 convertible notes.
Self-Insurance
The Company is self-insured for employee medical claims (in all states except for Oklahoma, where the Company participates in the Oklahoma state subsidy program) and has a large deductible workers' compensation plan (in all states except for Ohio, where workers' compensation is covered under a premium-only policy provided by the Ohio Bureau of Worker's Compensation, a state funded program required by Ohio's monopolistic workers' compensation system). Additionally, the Company maintains insurance programs, including general and professional liability, property, casualty, directors' and officers' liability, crime, automobile, employment practices liability and earthquake and flood. The Company believes that its insurance programs are adequate and where there has been a direct transfer of risk to the insurance carrier, the Company does not recognize a liability in the consolidated financial statements.
The Company's services subject it to certain liability risks which may result in malpractice claims being asserted against the Company if its services are alleged to have resulted in patient injury or other adverse effects. The Company carries policies to protect against such claims.
As of December 31, 2014, claims incurred but not reported or unsettled claims for the self-insured employee medical plan and the large deductible workers' compensation plan are recognized as a liability in the consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08 that amends the definition of a discontinued operation to include only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. This ASU should be applied prospectively and is effective for the Company for the 2015 annual and interim periods. Early adoption is permitted for disposals that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued. We have not adopted this ASU as of December 31, 2014.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 guidance requiring revenue to be recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods and services. The guidance requires the disclosure of sufficient quantitative and qualitative information for financial statement users to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and associated cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption precluded. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15 guidance regarding an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, which requires management to assess a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. Before this new standard, there was minimal guidance in GAAP specific to going concern. Under the new standard, disclosures are required when conditions give rise to substantial doubt about a company’s ability to
continue as a going concern within one year from the financial statement issuance date. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption permitted. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share except net income or loss is adjusted by the impact of the assumed issuance of convertible shares and the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (which includes potentially dilutive securities, such as options, warrants, non-vested shares, and additional shares issuable under convertible notes outstanding during the period when such potentially dilutive securities are not anti-dilutive). Potentially dilutive securities from option, warrants and unvested restricted shares are calculated in accordance with the treasury stock method, which assumes that proceeds from the exercise of all options and warrants with exercise prices exceeding the average market value are used to repurchase common stock at market value. The incremental shares remaining after the proceeds are exhausted represent the potentially dilutive effect of the securities. Potentially dilutive securities from convertible promissory notes are calculated based on the assumed issuance at the beginning of the period, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from their assumed issuance. For 2014 and 2013, potentially dilutive securities of 7.7 million and 11.3 million, respectively, were excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation because including them would have been anti-dilutive in both periods.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net loss for continuing and discontinued operations and the number of common shares used in the computation of both basic and diluted earnings per share:

NOTE 3. LIQUIDITY AND PROFITABILITY
The Company has access to various cash resources to offset significant cash needs.
Sources of Liquidity
At December 31, 2014, we had $10.7 million in cash and cash equivalents as well as restricted cash and investments of $8.8 million. During 2015, we anticipate both access to and receipt of several sources of liquidity. At December 31, 2014, we have one facility and one office building held for sale, and one variable interest entity held for sale that we anticipate selling during 2015. We expect that the cash proceeds and the release of restricted cash will approximate the related obligations.
In January 2015, we entered into exclusive listing agreements on the two office buildings located in Roswell, Georgia that we also anticipate selling during 2015. We expect that the cash proceeds will exceed obligations by approximately $0.6 million.
We routinely have ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, have refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs. During 2015, we anticipate net proceeds for working capital of approximately $3.0 million on refinancing of existing debt, primarily in the second and third quarters of 2015.
In July 2014, we announced that the Board of Directors had approved a strategic plan to transition the Company to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions, the Company will transition to third-parties the operations of the Company’s currently owned and operated healthcare facilities, which are principally skilled nursing facilities. The Company is focused on the ownership, acquisition and leasing of healthcare related properties. We estimate cash flow from operations and other working capital changes of approximately $7.8 million for the year ending December 31, 2015.
We maintain certain revolving lines of credit for which we have limited remaining capacity and all of which are due in 2015. Given our transition out of healthcare operations, we do not anticipate any additional draws on these facilities.
Other liquidity sources include but to a lesser extent, the proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants.
Cash Requirements
At December 31, 2014, we had $151.4 million in indebtedness of which the current portion is $33.3 million. This current portion is comprised of the following components: i) convertible debt of approximately $14.0 million, ii) debt of held for sale entities of approximately $11.2 million, primarily senior debt - bond and mortgage indebtedness, and iii) remaining debt of approximately $8.1 million which includes revolver debt, senior debt - bonds, and senior debt - mortgage indebtedness. For a complete debt listing and facility detail, see Note 9, Notes Payable and Other Debt, to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report.
The convertible debt includes two subordinated convertible debt issuances. One was issued in 2012 (the “2012 Notes”) and has an outstanding principal amount of $7.5 million at December 31, 2014 with maturity on July 31, 2015. At any time on
or after the six-month anniversary of the date of issuance of the 2012 Notes, the notes are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price equal to $3.97 per share (adjusted for a 5% stock dividend paid on October 22, 2012, and subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar events). The other was issued in 2014 (the “2014 Notes”) and has an outstanding principal amount of $6.5 million at December 31, 2014 with maturity on April 30, 2015. At any time on or after the date of issuance of the 2014 Notes, the notes are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the common stock at an initial conversion price equal to $4.50 per share, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar events. While management cannot predict with certainty, we anticipate that some holders of the subordinated convertible notes will elect to convert their subordinated convertible notes into shares of common stock provided the common stock continues to trade above the applicable conversion price for such notes.
On March 31, 2015, the Company entered into subscription agreements with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company accepted subscriptions for an aggregate of $8.5 million in principal amount of the Company’s 10% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due April 30, 2017 ("2015 Notes"). In connection therewith, the Company issued approximately $1.7 million in principal amount of 2015 Notes on March 31, 2015, and will issue 2015 Notes for the remaining principal amount of the accepted subscriptions on or before April 30, 2015, upon receipt of payment thereof.
The current debt maturing in 2015 for all other debt approximates $8.1 million. As indicated previously, we routinely have ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, have refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs. We anticipate net principal disbursements of approximately $5.1 million which reflect the offset of anticipated proceeds on refinancing of approximately $3.0 million.
We anticipate our operating cash requirements as being substantially less than in 2014 due to the transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Based on the described sources of liquidity and related cash requirements, we expect sufficient funds for our operations, scheduled debt service, and capital expenditures at least through the next 12 months. On a longer term basis, at December 31, 2014 we have approximately $74.4 million of debt maturities due between 2015 and 2017, excluding convertible promissory notes which are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock. We have been successful in recent years in raising new equity capital and believe, based on recent discussions that these markets will continue to be available to us for raising capital in 2015 and beyond. We believe our long-term liquidity needs will be satisfied by these same sources, as well as borrowings as required to refinance indebtedness.
In order to satisfy our capital needs, we seek to: (i) improve our operating results through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions with favorable terms and consistent and predictable cash flow; (ii) expand our borrowing arrangements with certain existing lenders; (iii) refinance current debt where possible to obtain more favorable terms; and (iv) raise capital through the issuance of debt or equity securities. We anticipate that these actions, if successful, will provide the opportunity for us to maintain liquidity on a short and long term basis, thereby permitting us to meet our operating and financing obligations for the next 12 months. However, there is no guarantee that such actions will be successful or that anticipated operating results will be achieved. We currently have limited borrowing availability under our existing revolving credit facilities. If the Company is unable to improve operating results, expand existing borrowing agreements, refinance current debt, the convertible promissory notes due July 31, 2015 are not converted into shares of the Company's common stock and are required to be repaid by us in cash, or raise capital through the issuance of securities, then the Company may be required to restructure its outstanding indebtedness, implement further cost reduction initiatives or sell assets.

HUD escrow deposits—In connection with financing secured through HUD, the Regulatory Agreements entered into by several wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company require monthly escrow deposits for taxes and insurance.
Defeased bonds escrow—In September 2013, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company deposited the outstanding principal and accrued interest to the prepayment date on certain outstanding bonds which, pursuant to the loan agreement, were prepaid on March 1, 2014 (see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt).
Lender's collection account—Several of the Company's credit facilities require several wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company to deposit certain collections and proceeds of their accounts receivable into a special collection account pursuant to the depository agreements. These funds are disbursed in priority order in accordance to certain credit agreements (see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt).
Current replacement reserves—In connection with the September 2013 refinancing of one of the wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company's loan agreements, certain cash reserves were set aside for non-critical repairs outlined in the refinancing agreement.
Collateral cash and certificates of deposit—In securing mortgage financing from certain lending institutions, the Company and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company are required to deposit cash and/or certificates of deposit to be held as collateral in accordance with the terms of the loan agreements.
Property tax escrow—Several facilities are required to set funds aside for real estate taxes.
HUD replacement reserves—The Regulatory Agreements entered into in connection with the financing secured through HUD require monthly escrow deposits for replacement and improvement of the HUD project assets.
Repair and remediation/replacement reserves—In 2013, one facility was required to set funds aside for repairs, remediation and replacement expenses.
Reserves for capital improvements—Several facilities are required to set funds aside for capital improvements.
Restricted investments for other debt obligations—In compliance with certain financing and insurance agreements, the Company and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company are required to deposit cash held as collateral by the lender or in escrow with certain designated financial institutions. One of the Company's loan agreements includes a requirement to fund additional cash collateral if the borrower fails to achieve certain debt service ratio requirements. One of the Company's insurance policies requires cash to be held in escrow for the life of the policy. One of the wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company's loan agreements requires monthly cash deposits to be held as additional collateral until the loan matures on September 27, 2016. One of the wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company's loan agreements requires restricted assets of $0.3 million to be held in reserve of the debt related to this loan (see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt).

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company determined that no impairment adjustments were necessary for goodwill. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company determined that an impairment adjustment was required for the goodwill recorded when the Company acquired the land, building, improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment of Companions on August 17, 2012. Accordingly, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, which is included in Loss from Discontinued Operations, net of tax. The Company does not amortize goodwill or indefinite lived intangibles, which consist of separable bed licenses.
NOTE 7. LEASES
Operating Leases
The Company leases certain office space and a total of 11 skilled nursing facilities under non-cancelable operating leases, most of which have initial lease terms of 10 to 12 years with rent escalation clauses and provisions for payments by the Company of real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs; six of the skilled nursing facilities that are leased are still operated by the Company. For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, facility rent expense totaled $7.1 million and $6.3 million, respectively. Total facility rent expense excludes $1.0 million and $1.8 million in 2014 and 2013, respectively, that is recognized in Loss from Discontinued Operations, net of tax.
Five of the Company's skilled nursing facilities are operated under a single master indivisible lease arrangement. The lease has a term of ten years into 2020. Under the Master Lease (the "Master Lease"), a breach at a single facility could subject one or more of the other facilities covered by the same master lease to the same default risk. Failure to comply with regulations or governmental authorities, such as Medicaid and Medicare provider requirements, is a default under the Master Lease. In addition, other potential defaults related to an individual facility may cause a default of the entire Master Lease. With an indivisible lease, it is difficult to restructure the composition of the portfolio or economic terms of the lease without the consent of the landlord. The Company is not aware of any defaults and believes it is in compliance with the covenants of the Master Lease as of December 31, 2014.
Two of the Company's facilities are operated under a single indivisible lease; therefore, a breach at a single facility could subject the second facility to the same default risk. The lease has a term of 12 years into 2022 and includes covenants and restrictions. The Company is required to make minimum capital expenditures of $375 per licensed bed per lease year at each facility which amounts to $0.1 million per year for both facilities. As of December 31, 2014, the Company is in compliance with all financial and administrative covenants of this lease agreement.
Future minimum lease payments for each of the next five years ending December 31, are as follows:
|
| | | | |
| | (Amounts in 000's) |
2015 | | $ | 7,940 |
|
2016 | | 7,980 |
|
2017 | | 8,062 |
|
2018 | | 8,188 |
|
2019 | | 7,861 |
|
Thereafter | | 8,279 |
|
Total | | $ | 48,310 |
|
The Company has also entered into lease agreements for various equipment used in the facilities. These leases are included in future minimum lease payments above.
Leased and Subleased Facilities to Third-Party Operators
In connection with both the Company's strategic plan to transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company and previous leasing and subleasing opportunities, the operations of eight facilities, three owned by us and five leased to us, have been successfully transferred to third-party skilled nursing facility operators as of December 31, 2014. The lease and sublease agreements provide current and future lease receivables the Company recognizes as rental revenues. These properties are leased and subleased on a triple net basis, meaning that the lessee (i.e., the new third-party operator of the property) is obligated under the lease or sublease, as applicable, for all liabilities of the property in respect to insurance, taxes and facility maintenance, as well as the lease or sublease payments, as applicable.
On December 1, 2012, the Company entered into a sublease agreement effective December 1, 2012 to exit the operations of a skilled nursing facility located in Jeffersonville, Georgia. The sublease agreement expires on the same day and adheres to all of the terms, covenants, and conditions as the Master Lease.
On June 12, 2013, the Company entered into two sublease agreements to exit the operations of a skilled nursing facility located in Tybee Island, Georgia effective June 30, 2013. The two sublease agreements expire on the same day and adhere to all of the terms, covenants, and conditions as the Master Lease.
On July 1, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement effective July 1, 2014 to sublease a 52-bed skilled nursing facility located in Thomasville, Georgia to a local nursing home operator. The sublease agreement expires on the same day and adheres to all of the terms, covenants, and conditions as the Master Lease.
On October 22, 2014, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into an agreement to sublease one of its skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities located in Lumber City, Georgia to a local nursing home operator commencing on November 1, 2014. The sublease agreement expires on the same day and adheres to all of the terms, covenants, and conditions as the Master Lease.
On October 22, 2014, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into an agreement to sublease one of its skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities located in Dublin, Georgia to a local nursing home operator that commenced on November 1, 2014. The initial term of the sublease agreement expires on the last day of the sixtieth (60th) full calendar month from the commencement date of November 1, 2014 and may be extended for one separate renewal term of five years.
On September 22, 2014, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company entered into separate lease agreements to lease a 182-bed skilled nursing facility located in Attalla, Alabama and a 124-bed skilled nursing facility located in Glencoe, Alabama to a local nursing home operator that commenced on November 1, 2014. The initial term of each lease agreement expires on the last day of the sixtieth (60th) full calendar month from the commencement date of the lease agreement and may be extended for one separate renewal term of five years (see Note 11 - Discontinued Operations).

Debt Covenant Compliance
As of December 31, 2014, the Company (including its consolidated variable interest entity) has approximately forty credit related instruments (credit facilities, mortgage notes, bonds and other credit obligations) outstanding that include various financial and administrative covenant requirements. Covenant requirements include, but are not limited to, fixed charge coverage ratios, debt service coverage ratios, minimum EBITDA or EBITDAR, current ratios and tangible net worth requirements. Certain financial covenant requirements are based on consolidated financial measurements whereas others are based on subsidiary level (i.e. facility, multiple facilities or a combination of subsidiaries comprising less than the Company's consolidated financial measurements). Some covenants are based on annual financial metric measurements whereas others are based on quarterly financial metric measurements. The Company routinely tracks and monitors its compliance with its covenant requirements. In recent periods, including as of December 31, 2014, the Company has not been in compliance with certain financial and administrative covenants. For each instance of such non-compliance, the Company has obtained waivers or amendments to such requirements including as necessary modifications to future covenant requirements or the elimination of certain requirements in future periods.

Revolving Credit Facilities and Lines of Credit
Gemino Northwest Credit Facility
On May 30, 2013, NW 61st Nursing, LLC (“Northwest”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Northwest Credit Facility”) with Gemino Healthcare Finance, LLC ("Gemino"). The Northwest Credit Facility provided for a $1.0 million principal amount senior-secured revolving credit facility.
The Northwest Credit Facility matures on January 31, 2015 and interest accrues on the principal balance thereof at an annual rate of 4.75% plus the current LIBOR rate. Northwest also pays to Gemino: (i) a collateral monitoring fee equal to 1.0% per annum of the daily outstanding balance of the Northwest Credit Facility; and (ii) a fee equal to 0.5% per annum of the unused portion of the Northwest Credit Facility. In the event the Northwest Credit Facility is terminated prior to January 31, 2015, Northwest shall also be required to pay a fee to Gemino in an amount equal to 1.0% of the Northwest Credit Facility. The Northwest Credit Facility is secured by a security interest in the accounts receivable and the collections and proceeds thereof relating to the Company’s skilled nursing facility located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma known as the Northwest Nursing Center. AdCare has unconditionally guaranteed all amounts owing under the Northwest Credit Facility.
The Northwest Credit Facility contains customary events of default, including material breach of representations and warranties, failure to make required payments, failure to comply with certain agreements or covenants and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, Gemino may terminate the Northwest Credit Facility.
In connection with entering into the Northwest Credit Facility, certain affiliates of the Company and Northwest, as applicable, also entered into an intercreditor and subordination agreement, governmental depository agreement and subordination of management fee agreement, each containing customary terms and conditions.
On June 25, 2013, Northwest entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Agreement which amended the Northwest Credit Facility. The amendment, among other things: (i) amends certain financial covenants regarding fixed charge coverage ratio and minimum EBITDA; and (ii) amends the credit facility to include the Bonterra Credit Facility (discussed below) as an affiliated credit agreement in determining whether certain financial covenants are being met.
On June 28, 2013, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, entered into a Joinder Agreement, Second Amendment and Supplement to Credit Agreement with Northwest and Gemino pursuant to which such subsidiaries became additional borrowers under the Northwest Credit Facility. Pursuant to the joinder, the borrowers granted a continuing security interest in, among other things, their accounts receivables, payment intangibles, chattel paper, general intangibles, collateral relating to any accounts or payment intangibles, commercial lockboxes and cash, as additional collateral under the Northwest Credit Facility. In connection with the execution of the joinder, the borrowers issued an amended and restated revolving promissory note in favor of Gemino in the amount of $1.5 million.
On February 10, 2014, Northwest entered into a Waiver and Amendment with Gemino which modified the: (i) Northwest Credit Facility; and (ii) Gemino-Bonterra Credit Facility (described below). The Waiver and Amendment, among other things, adjusted the required: (a) minimum fixed charge coverage ratio; (b) maximum loan turn days; (c) minimum earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; and (d) waived certain specified defaults in existence as of the date of the Waiver and Amendment.
As of December 31, 2014, $1.3 million was outstanding under the Northwest Credit Facility. At December 31, 2014, the Company was not in compliance with covenants contained in the Northwest Credit Facility and has obtained a waiver from Gemino (see table above).
On January 30, 2015, a certain wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Fourth Amendment to the Credit Agreement with Gemino which amended the Northwest Credit Facility. The amendment extends the term of the Northwest Credit Facility from January 31, 2015 to March 31, 2015.
Gemino-Bonterra Credit Facility
On September 20, 2012, ADK Bonterra/Parkview, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("Bonterra") entered into a Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement with Gemino ("Gemino-Bonterra Credit Facility"), which amended the original Credit Agreement dated April 27, 2011 between Bonterra and Gemino. The Gemino-Bonterra Credit Facility is a secured credit facility for borrowings up to $2.0 million. The amendment extended the term of the Gemino-Bonterra Credit Facility from October 29, 2013 to January 31, 2014 and amended certain financial covenants regarding Bonterra's fixed charge coverage ratio, maximum loan turn days and applicable margin. Interest accrues on the principal balance outstanding at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin of 4.75% to 5.00%, which fluctuates depending upon the principal amount outstanding.
On December 20, 2012, Bonterra entered into a Third Amendment to the Gemino-Bonterra Credit Facility, which altered the financial covenant in the original credit agreement to exclude the Oklahoma Owners under another credit agreement with Gemino from the covenant calculation of maximum loan turn days and acknowledged that Bonterra shall not be obligated, directly or indirectly, for any indebtedness or obligations of the Oklahoma Owners to Gemino.
On May 30, 2013, Bonterra, entered into a Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement with Gemino, which among other things: (i) extends the term of the Gemino-Bonterra Credit Facility from January 31, 2014 to January 31, 2015; (ii) amended certain financial covenants regarding Bonterra’s fixed charge coverage ratio and maximum loan turn days; and (iii) amended the Gemino-Bonterra Credit Facility to include the Northwest Credit Facility as an affiliated credit agreement in determining whether certain financial covenants are being met.

Convertible Debt
Subordinated Convertible Notes Issued in 2010 (the "2010 Notes")
On October 26, 2010, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company sold to them an aggregate of $11.1 million in principal amount of the 2010 Notes, bearing 10% interest per annum payable quarterly in cash in arrears beginning December 31, 2010.
On October 29, 2010, the Company entered into an amendment and joinder agreement to effectuate the sale of an additional $0.8 million in principal amount of 2010 Notes. The initial sale of $11.1 million in principal amount of the 2010 Notes occurred on October 26, 2010, and the subsequent sale of $0.8 million in principal amount of the 2010 Notes occurred on October 29, 2010. The 2010 Notes had an original maturity date of October 26, 2013.
The 2010 Notes were convertible at the option of the holder into shares of common stock of the Company at a current conversion price of $3.73 (adjusted for a 5% stock dividends paid on October 14, 2011 and October 22, 2012, and subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar events) that were subject to future reductions if the Company issued equity instruments at a lower price. Since there was no minimum conversion price resulting in an indeterminate number of shares to be issued in the future, the Company determined an embedded derivative existed that was required to be bifurcated from the 2010 Notes and accounted for separately as a derivative liability recorded at fair value. At the time of initial measurement, the derivative had an estimated fair value of $2.6 million resulting in a discount on the 2010 Notes. The discount was amortized over the term of the 2010 Notes.
Effective October 26, 2013, the Company entered into a Waiver, Amendment and Forbearance with holders of the 2010 convertible notes, pursuant to which the Company and the holders amended: (i) the requirement to adjust the conversion price of the 2010 Notes for dilutive equity issuances (i.e., the "full ratchet and anti-dilution" provision); (ii) extended the maturity date to August 29, 2014; and (iii) adjusted the interest rate to 12.0% per annum. Accordingly, a minimum conversion price of $3.73 was set and a determinate number of shares was established, the result of which was that the embedded derivative ceased to exist. The Company adjusted the carrying value of the derivative to zero as of October 26, 2013.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, holders of the 2010 notes converted approximately $6.9 million of principal and accrued and unpaid interest outstanding under such notes into shares of common stock at a price of $3.73 per share. The Company recognized a $1.8 million loss on extinguishment of debt during the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 related to the difference between the conversion price and the market price on the date the 2010 Notes were converted into shares of common stock.

Approximately $14.0 million of the scheduled maturities in 2015 relate to the 2012 Notes and the 2014 Notes. While management cannot predict with certainty, we anticipate that some holders of the subordinated convertible notes will elect to convert their subordinated convertible notes into shares of common stock provided the common stock continues to trade above the applicable conversion price for such notes. The conversion prices are $3.97 and $4.50 for the 2012 and 2014 Notes, respectively. If all of the subordinated convertible notes had been converted to common stock at December 31, 2014, then the Company would have been required to issue approximately 4.0 million shares of common stock.
NOTE 10. ACQUISITIONS
On February 15, 2013, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Avalon Health Care, LLC (“Avalon”) to acquire certain land, buildings, improvements, furniture, vehicles, contracts, fixtures and equipment comprising: (i) a 180-bed skilled nursing facility known as Bethany Health and Rehab; and (ii) a 240-bed skilled nursing facility known as Trevecca Health and Rehab, both located in Nashville, Tennessee. The Company deposited $0.4 million of earnest money escrow deposits in February 2013. On June 1, 2013, the Purchase and Sale Agreement was terminated due to the failure of the transaction to close by May 31, 2013. In connection with the termination of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Company was seeking the return of $0.4 million previously deposited earnest money escrow deposits. On August 1, 2013, the Company entered into a settlement agreement regarding the return of the $0.4 million previously deposited earnest money escrow deposits. Pursuant to the agreement, the previously deposited earnest money escrow deposits were released and distributed, $0.3 million to the Company and $0.1 million to Avalon, respectively.
The Company incurred de minimis acquisition costs during the year ended December 31, 2014 and approximately $0.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2013. Acquisition costs are recorded in “Other Income (Expense)” section of the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company recognized a gain on the sale of approximately $0.1 million and cash proceeds, net of costs and debt payoff, of $0.6 million.
On May 6, 2013, Hearth & Home of Vandalia, Inc. (the “Vandalia Seller”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, sold to H & H of Vandalia LLC (the “Vandalia Purchaser”), pursuant to that certain Agreement of Sale, dated October 11, 2012 and amended December 28, 2012 (as amended, the “Ohio Sale Agreement”), between the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, including the Vandalia Seller (together, the “Ohio ALF Sellers”), on the one hand, and CHP Acquisition Company, LLC (“CHP”) on the other hand, certain land, buildings, improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment comprising the Vandalia facility located in Vandalia, Ohio. CHP had previously assigned its rights in the Ohio Sale Agreement with respect to the Vandalia facility to the Vandalia Purchaser.
The sale price for the Vandalia facility consisted of, among other items: (i) an assumption, by the Vandalia Purchaser, of a mortgage in an aggregate amount of $3.6 million (the “Vandalia Mortgage”) that secures the Vandalia facility; and (ii) a release of the Vandalia Seller from its obligations to Red Mortgage Capital, LLC (the “Vandalia Mortgagee”) and HUD with respect to the Vandalia Mortgage, pursuant to a release and assumption agreement entered into among the Vandalia Purchaser, the Vandalia Seller, HUD and the Vandalia Mortgagee. In connection with the sale of the Vandalia facility, the Vandalia Seller and Vandalia Purchaser also entered into an assignment and assumption agreement of trust funds and service contracts, containing customary terms and conditions.
In June 2013, the Company entered into a Release Agreement with CHP amending the terms of the $3.6 million seller note issued in the connection with the sale of four of the six Ohio assisted living facilities sold to CHP in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Proceeds from the $3.2 million payment were used to fund a $2.0 million increase in collateralized restricted cash required by one of the Company’s lenders and $1.2 million was received by the Company for working capital purposes. The Company recognized a loss on the sale of Vandalia of $0.4 million.
On June 11, 2013, the Company completed the sale of its former Springfield, Ohio corporate office building which was sold for the approximate net book value.

The impairment charges represent changes in fair value from the carrying value.
During 2013, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $0.7 million related to two facilities located in Tybee Island, Georgia.
For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company determined that an impairment adjustment was required for the goodwill recorded when the Company acquired the land, building, improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment of Companions on August 17, 2012. Accordingly, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2013.

On July 1, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement, effective July 1, 2014, to sublease a 52-bed skilled nursing facility located in Thomasville, Georgia to a local nursing home operator.
On September 22, 2014, as part of its ongoing strategic plan to transition from an owner and operator of healthcare facilities to a healthcare property holding and leasing company, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company entered into separate lease agreements to lease a 182-bed skilled nursing facility located in Attalla, Alabama and a 124-bed skilled nursing facility located in Glencoe, Alabama to a local nursing home operator (the "Alabama Operator") effective November 1, 2014.
On September 30, 2014, the lease agreement to operate a 90-bed skilled nursing facility located in Cassville, Missouri expired. The Company elected not to renew the lease agreement consistent with its strategic plan to transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company.

On November 1, 2014, and in connection with the October 22, 2014 sublease agreements, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company entered into separate operations transfer agreements, effective November 1, 2014, to transfer the operations of a 130-bed skilled nursing facility located in Dublin, Georgia and a 86-bed skilled nursing facility located in Lumber City, Georgia to the Georgia Operator. On November 1, 2014, and in connection with the September 22, 2014 lease agreements, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company entered into separate operations transfer agreements with the Alabama Operator to transfer the operations of the 182-bed skilled nursing facility located in Attalla, Alabama and the 124-bed skilled nursing facility located in Glencoe, Alabama to the new operator effective upon full licensure and approval to operate the facilities in the state of Alabama.

NOTE 12. PREFERRED STOCK
Preferred Stock Offerings
On November 7, 2012, the Company sold 450,000 shares of its Series A Preferred Stock offered at $23 per share in a registered public offering. The Company received proceeds from the offering of $9.2 million after deducting underwriting discounts and other offering-related expenses of $1.2 million.
The liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock is $25 per share. Cumulative dividends accrue and are paid in the amount of $2.72 per share each year, which is equivalent to 10.875% of the $25 liquidation preference per share. The dividend rate may increase under certain circumstances.
On October 28, 2013, the Company sold 500,000 shares of its Series A Preferred Stock at $25 per share in a registered public offering. The Company received proceeds from the offering of $11.3 million after deducting underwriting discounts and other offering-related expenses of $1.2 million.
Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock generally have no voting rights but have limited voting rights under certain circumstances. The Company may not redeem the Series A Preferred Stock before December 1, 2017, except the Company is required to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock following a "Change of Control," as defined in the Company's Articles of Incorporation. On and after December 1, 2017, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, by paying $25 per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.
The change-in-control provision requires the Series A Preferred Stock to be classified as temporary equity because, although deemed a remote possibility, a purchaser could acquire a majority of the voting power of the outstanding common stock without company approval, thereby triggering redemption. FASB ASC Topic 480-10-S99-3A, SEC Staff Announcement: Classification and Measurement of Redeemable Securities, requires classification outside of permanent equity for redeemable instruments for which the redemption triggers are outside of the issuer's control. The assessment of whether the redemption of an equity security could occur outside of the issuer's control is required to be made without regard to the probability of the event or events that may result in the instrument becoming redeemable.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model for estimating the fair values of employee share options, employee and nonemployee warrants and similar instruments with the following key assumptions:
Expected Dividend Yield: The Company has not historically paid cash dividends on its common stock. Accordingly, our expected dividend yield is zero.
Expected Volatility: The Company estimates the expected volatility factor using the Company's historical stock price volatility.
Risk-Free Interest Rate: The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant or warrant for the period of the expected term as described.
Expected Term: The Company currently uses a simplified method for calculating the expected term based on the historical exercises of employee options and warrants and contractual expiration dates. For nonemployee warrants awarded to certain service providers or financing partners, the Company uses the contractual life of the warrants as the expected term, as the Company does not have sufficient experience with the service providers or financing partners to determine when they could be expected to exercise their warrants.
The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of employee stock options and warrants using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model are set forth in the following table:
|
| | | | | | |
| | 2014 | | 2013 |
Dividend Yield | | — | % | | — | % |
Expected Volatility | | 40.9% - 51.0% |

Expected Term | | 5.2 years |

The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of nonemployee stock options and warrants using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model are set forth in the following table:

Employee and Non-employee Stock Options
The Company has three employee stock option plans:
| |
• | The 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, which expired March 31, 2014. |
| |
• | The 2005 Stock Incentive Plan, which expires September 30, 2015 and provides for a maximum of 578,812 shares of common stock to be issued. |
| |
• | The 2011 Stock Incentive Plan, which expires March 28, 2021 and provides for a maximum of 2,152,500 shares of common stock to be issued. |
All three plans permit the granting of incentive or nonqualified stock options. The 2011 Stock Incentive Plan also permits the granting of restricted stock. The plans are administered by the Board which has the authority to determine the employees to whom awards will be made, the amounts of the awards, and the other terms and conditions of the awards. The Company intends to use only the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan to make future grants. The number of securities remaining available for future issuance is 471,526.

NOTE 15. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
The Company has one variable interest entity that is required to be consolidated because AdCare has control as primary beneficiary. A "primary beneficiary" is the party in a VIE that has both of the following characteristics: (i) The power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. For a further description of the VIE, see Note 19 - Related Party Transactions - "Riverchase".
On June 22, 2013, the Company and Riverchase Village ADK, LLC ("Riverchase"), our consolidated variable interest entity which is owned and controlled by Christopher Brogdon (a Company Director and a greater than 5% beneficial owner of the common stock), agreed to mutually terminate the five year management agreement, dated June 22, 2010, pursuant to which a subsidiary of the Company supervised the management of the Riverchase Village facility, a 105-bed assisted living facility located in Hoover, Alabama and owned by Riverchase, for a monthly fee equal to 5% of the monthly gross revenues of the
Riverchase Village facility.
On June 22, 2013, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and Mr. Brogdon amended the Option Agreement, dated June 22, 2010, pursuant to which the Company has the exclusive and irrevocable right to acquire from Mr. Brogdon all of the issued and outstanding membership interests in Riverchase, which owns the Riverchase Village facility. The amendment extended the option provided for thereby from June 22, 2013 to June 22, 2014.
On December 18, 2013, Riverchase entered into a sales listing agreement to sell the Riverchase Village facility. On April 1, 2014, Riverchase entered into a purchase and sale agreement to sell the Riverchase Village facility to a third-party purchaser; however, the agreement was terminated on August 6, 2014.
On March 3, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a letter agreement, dated as of February 28, 2014 (the "Letter Agreement"), with Mr. Brogdon and entities controlled by Mr. Brogdon, which: (i) amended the Company's previously-existing option to acquire all of the issued and outstanding membership interests in Riverchase until June 22, 2015; and (ii) reduced the purchase price for the exercise of such option to $1.00. Furthermore, the Letter Agreement provides that, upon the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility to an arms-length third party purchaser, regardless of whether the Company has exercised its option to purchase Riverchase, the net sales proceeds from such sale shall be distributed as follows: (a) one-half of the net sales proceeds will be paid to the Company; (b) the remaining net sales proceeds will be paid to the Company to satisfy the outstanding principal balance and interest (if any) then due under the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon in favor of the Company with an original principal amount of $523,663, with such payment to be applied in the order of scheduled amortization under the note; and (c) the balance of net sales proceeds will be paid to the Company.
On May 15, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an Amendment to the Letter Agreement (the "Letter Agreement First Amendment"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay $92,323 (the "Tax Payment") to the appropriate governmental authorities of Jefferson County, Alabama, such amount representing outstanding real property taxes due on the Riverchase Village facility. The Company determined that it was in its best interest to make the Tax Payment in order to preserve the Company's interest in the sale of the Riverchase Village facility. In connection with the Tax Payment, the parties also agreed to amend and restate the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon in favor of the Company to reflect a new principal amount of $615,986, which amount represents the original principal amount of the note plus the Tax Payment. Furthermore, the Letter Agreement First Amendment amended the Letter Agreement to provide that, if the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility does not occur on or before December 31, 2014, then a payment of principal under the amended and restated promissory note equal to the Tax Payment will be due and payable to the Company on or before January 31, 2015.
On October 10, 2014, AdCare and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a second amendment to the Letter Agreement, as amended (the “Letter Agreement Second Amendment”), with Mr. Brogdon and entities controlled by Mr. Brogdon, pursuant to which the Company reduced the principal amount of the note issued by Mr. Brogdon by the amount equal to $92,323 (which represents the amount of the Tax Payment) plus $255,000 (which represents an offset of amounts owed by the Company to Mr. Brogdon under his Consulting Agreement with the Company). The Letter Agreement Second Amendment also amended the Letter Agreement, as amended, to provide that upon the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility to a third party purchaser, the net sales proceeds from such sale shall be distributed so that any net sales proceeds shall first be paid to the Company to satisfy the $177,323 outstanding under the note issued by Riverchase to the Company, which note is discussed below. The Letter Agreement was amended a third time in March 2015 (see Note 20 - Subsequent Events).
AdCare is a guarantor of Riverchase’s obligations with respect to certain revenue bonds issued by the City of Hoover in connection with the Riverchase Village facility, and in order to preserve the Company's interest in the sale of the Riverchase Village facility, the Company made a payment in the amount of $85,000 (the "Principal Obligation") on behalf of Riverchase with respect to its obligations under the bonds. On October 10, 2014, Riverchase issued a promissory note in favor of the Company in the principal amount of $177,323, which represented the amount of Tax Payment plus the Principal Obligation. The note does not bear interest and is due upon the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility. This note was subsequently amended in March 2015 (see "Note 20 - Subsequent Events").
The following summarizes the assets and liabilities of the variable interest entities included in the consolidated balance sheets:

NOTE 16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Regulatory Matters
Laws and regulations governing Federal Medicare and State Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation. Compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future governmental review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action including fines, penalties, and exclusion from certain governmental programs. The Company believes that it is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable laws and regulations.
A significant portion of the Company's revenue is derived from Medicaid and Medicare, for which reimbursement rates are subject to regulatory changes and government funding restrictions. Any significant future change to reimbursement rates could have a material effect on the Company's operations.
Legal Matters
The skilled nursing business involves a significant risk of liability due to the age and health of the Company's patients and residents and the services the Company provides. The Company and others in the industry are subject to an increasing number of claims and lawsuits, including professional liability claims, which may allege that services have resulted in personal injury, elder abuse, wrongful death or other related claims. The defense of these lawsuits may result in significant legal costs, regardless of the outcome, and can result in large settlement amounts or damage awards.
In addition to the potential lawsuits and claims described above, the Company is also subject to potential lawsuits under the Federal False Claims Act and comparable state laws alleging submission of fraudulent claims for services to any healthcare program (such as Medicare) or payer. A violation may provide the basis for exclusion from federally funded healthcare programs.
As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company does not have any material loss contingencies recorded or requiring disclosure based upon the evaluation of the probability of loss from known claims, except as disclosed below.
In 2012, the Company was named as a defendant in two related lawsuits asserting breach of contract claims arising out of consulting agreements executed in 2010 in connection with the Company's becoming the operator of certain leased facilities that were previously operated by a third-party. The same transaction was already the subject of litigation commenced by the Company in 2011 against several entities which had previously operated the leased facilities. After becoming the operator of the leased facilities, the Company incurred certain losses for pre-closing activities for which the Company was entitled to indemnification. The Company sought to enforce its rights to indemnity by filing a lawsuit against the former operators of the leased facilities for breach of contract and related tort claims, and the Company proceeded to set off its losses against payment due under the consulting agreements referenced above. The defendants filed counterclaims against the Company. In the third
quarter of 2012, a settlement was reached with respect to the three lawsuits that permitted the Company to eliminate a previously accrued liability in light of the lower than expected settlement amount of $1.0 million resulting in a non-cash settlement gain of $0.4 million recognized in the third quarter of 2012. During the third quarter of 2012, $0.3 million of the settlement was paid. During 2013, the remaining settlement of $0.2 million was paid.
On June 24, 2013, South Star Services, Inc. (“SSSI”), Troy Clanton and Rose Rabon (collectively, the “Plaintiffs”) filed a complaint in the District Court of Oklahoma County, State of Oklahoma against: (i) AdCare, certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries and Boyd P. Gentry, AdCare’s former Chief Executive Officer (collectively, the “AdCare Defendants”); (ii) Christopher Brogdon (a director of the Company, owner of greater than 5% of the outstanding commons stock and a former Chief Acquisition Officer of the Company) and his wife; and (iii) five entities controlled by Mr. and Mrs. Brogdon, which entities own five skilled-nursing facilities located in Oklahoma (the “Oklahoma Facilities”) that are managed by an AdCare subsidiary. The complaint alleges, with respect to the AdCare Defendants, that: (i) the AdCare Defendants tortuously interfered with contractual relations between the Plaintiffs and Mr. Brogdon, and with Plaintiffs’ prospective economic advantage, relating to SSSI’s right to manage the Oklahoma Facilities and seven other skilled-nursing facilities located in Oklahoma (collectively, the “Facilities”), respectively; (ii) the AdCare Defendants fraudulently induced the Plaintiffs to perform work and incur expenses with respect to the Facilities; and (iii) one of the AdCare subsidiaries which is an AdCare Defendant provided false and defamatory information to an Oklahoma regulatory authority regarding SSSI’s management of one of the Oklahoma Facilities. The complaint sought damages against the AdCare Defendants, including punitive damages, in an unspecified amount, as well as costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney fees. On March 7, 2014, the Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint in which they alleged additional facts regardin
g the alleged fraudulent inducement caused by Mr. and Mrs. Brogdon and the AdCare Defendants. On February 10, 2015, Plaintiffs and the defendants participated in a voluntary mediation in an attempt to resolve the case. Although the case did not settle at the mediation, Plaintiffs and defendants continued to negotiate over the following weeks and executed a settlement agreement on March 30, 2015 (the "Clanton Settlement Agreement") to settle all claims for a lump sum payment of $2,000,000. Under the Clanton Settlement Agreement, the Company is to pay $600,000 to the Plaintiffs with the balance thereof to be paid by two of the Company's insurance carriers. The Company and the other defendants in the matter deny all of the Plaintiff's claims and any wrongdoing but agreed to settle the matter to avoid the continued expense and unpredictability of litigation.
On October 2, 2013, the Company responded to certain letters received from Georgia Department of Community Health ("GDCH") in September 2013 requesting payment of past due provider fees totaling $1.2 million for certain nursing facilities for periods prior to the Company's operation of the facilities. The Company received a final determination from GDCH in April 2014 confirming the Company was responsible for the payment of approximately $0.1 million relating to these past due provider fees. The Company paid these past due provider fees in the second quarter of 2014.
On March 7, 2014 the Company responded to a letter received from the Ohio Attorney General ("OAG") dated February 25, 2014 demanding repayment of approximately $1.0 million as settlement for alleged improper Medicaid payments related to seven Ohio facilities affiliated with the Company. The OAG alleged that the Company had submitted improper Medicaid claims for independent laboratory services for glucose blood tests and capillary blood draws. The Company intends to defend itself against the claims. The Company has not recorded a liability for this matter because the liability, if any, and outcome cannot be determined at this time.
On October 30, 2014, the Company and the prior owner of a certain 118-bed skilled nursing facility located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma entered into a confidential settlement agreement that resolved pending claims between the parties, including breach of contract and tort claims that had been asserted by the Company and\or its affiliates. As a result of the settlement, the Company has not recorded a reserve against any receivable that it contended might be owed.
Income Tax Examinations
In early 2014, the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") initiated an examination of the Company's income tax return for the 2011 income tax year. On May 7, 2014, the IRS completed and closed the examination and no changes were required to the Company's 2011 income tax return.
In October 2014, the Georgia Department of Revenue ("GDOR") initiated an examination of the Company's Georgia income tax returns and net worth returns for the 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013 income tax years. To date, the GDOR has not proposed any adjustments.
To the Company's knowledge, it is not currently under examination by any other major income tax jurisdiction.
Commitments
Special Termination Benefits
In 2014, the Company incurred certain salary retirement and continuation costs of approximately $2.6 million related to separation agreements with certain of the Company's current and former officers, an amendment to the consulting agreement with Mr. Brogdon (a Company Director), and future severance due to certain employees resulting from the Company's transition from an owner and operator of healthcare properties to lessor and sublessor of healthcare properties. The benefits include wage continuation and fringe benefits which are to be paid out to these former officers and employees over various future periods ranging from a one-month period to a 12-month period.
Commitment to Future Lease Payments
A leased skilled nursing facility has signed a security agreement associated with the lessor, Covington Realty, LLC, in conjunction with the lessor's refinancing of the project through HUD. The commitment gives the lender the right to pursue the facility for unpaid lease payments to the lessor.

The items accounting for the differences between income taxes computed at the federal statutory rate and the provision for income taxes are as follows:
|
| | | | | | |
| | December 31, |
| | 2014 | | 2013 |
Federal income tax at statutory rate | | 34.0 | % | | 34.0 | % |
State and local taxes | | 6.9 | % | | (0.5 | )% |
Consolidated VIE LLC's | | (1.5 | )% | | (2.0 | )% |
Nondeductible expenses | | (9.7 | )% | | (4.8 | )% |
Other | | (0.2 | )% | | (1.7 | )% |
Change in valuation allowance | | (28.8 | )% | | (26.3 | )% |
Effective tax rate | | 0.7 | % | | (1.3 | )% |
As of December 31, 2014, the Company had consolidated federal net operating loss ("NOL") carry forwards of $38.6 million. These NOLs begin to expire in 2018 through 2034 and currently are offset by a full valuation allowance. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had consolidated state NOL carry forwards of $27.3 million. These NOLs begin to expire in 2015 through 2034 and currently are offset by a full valuation allowance.
Given the Company's historical net operating losses, a full valuation allowance has been established on the Company's net deferred tax assets. The Company has generated additional deferred tax liabilities related to its tax amortization of certain acquired indefinite lived intangible assets because these assets are not amortized for book purposes. The tax amortization in current and future years gives rise to a deferred tax liability which will only reverse at the time of ultimate sale or book impairment. Due to the uncertain timing of this reversal, the temporary differences associated with indefinite lived intangibles cannot be considered a source of future taxable income for purposes of determining a valuation allowance. As such, the deferred tax liability cannot be used to support an equal amount of the deferred tax asset related to the NOL carry forward ("naked credit"). This resulted in recognizing deferred federal and state tax expense of $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and a deferred tax liability of $0.04 million and $0.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

In addition, Mr. Brogdon shall receive a success fee of $20,000 for each completed transaction; provided, however, unless approved by a majority vote of the Board of Directors of the Company, such success fees on a one-year basis shall not exceed $80,000 in year one, $120,000 in year two and $160,000 in year three of the Consulting Agreement. In addition, no success fee shall be paid for transactions involving leased facilities or transactions in which the overall consideration is less than $2,500,000. In the event the Consulting Agreement is terminated by the Company without cause, the Company shall provide severance pay to Mr. Brogdon in an amount equal to 18 months of Mr. Brogdon's maximum total compensation (including success fees).
On May 6, 2014, the Company and Mr. Brogdon entered into an Amendment to Consulting Agreement (the "Amended Consulting Agreement"), which amended that certain Consulting Agreement, dated December 31, 2012, between the Company and Mr. Brogdon (the "Original Consulting Agreement"), to restructure amounts payable to Mr. Brogdon thereunder. As compensation for his services under the Original Consulting Agreement, Mr. Brogdon was entitled to receive: (i) $10,000 per month in year one of the agreement; (ii) $15,000 per month in year two of the agreement; and (iii) $20,000 per month in year three of the agreement. The Amended Consulting Agreement eliminated the monthly payments to Mr. Brogdon and instead provides for an aggregate consulting fee equal to $400,000 (the "Consulting Fee"), paid or payable as described below:
| |
• | Under the Amended Consulting Agreement, Mr. Brogdon is entitled to receive a success fee of $25,000 (increased from $20,000 under the Original Consulting Agreement) for each potential acquisition identified by Mr. Brogdon which the Company completes (the “Success Fee”); provided, however, that the Success Fee shall not exceed $160,000 in any calendar year without a majority vote of the Board of Directors. |
| |
• | The fee originally payable to Mr. Brogdon upon termination of the Original Consulting Agreement without cause (approximately $550,000 for such termination prior to a change of control and approximately $1.1 million for such termination within six months after a change of control) was eliminated in the Amended Consulting Agreement. Instead, Mr. Brogdon will receive a fee of $500,000 if a change of control occurs on or before May 1, 2015 (the “Change of Control Fee”) and the Amended Consulting Agreement has not been earlier terminated. If a change of control occurs after May 1, 2015, then no Change of Control Fee is payable. The Amended Consulting Agreement will terminate immediately upon a change of control and the unpaid portion of the Consulting Fee, any accrued and unpaid Success Fee and Change of Control Fee (if applicable) will be paid to Mr. Brogdon upon the closing of the change of control. |
On May 6, 2014, the Company paid a one-time payment of $100,000 in respect to the Consulting Fee, with the remainder of the Consulting Fee payable in monthly payments of $15,000, commencing June 1, 2014, until paid in full. The Amended Consulting Agreement also provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Riverchase Village facility (which is owned by an entity which is owned and controlled by Mr. Brogdon and that is our VIE) was sold prior to September 1, 2014, then the amount of the unpaid Consulting Fee would be reduced by (and offset against) the aggregate principal balance owed by Mr. Brogdon to the Company under the promissory note executed by Mr. Brogdon in favor of the Company, with any remaining balance of the
Consulting Fee owed to Mr. Brogdon to be paid in cash at closing. However, because the sale of the Riverchase Village facility was not completed prior to September 1, 2014, the balance of the Consulting Fee owed to Mr. Brogdon by the Company in the amount of $255,000 was offset against the remaining amount owed by Mr. Brogdon to the Company under the promissory note, thereby reducing the principal amount of the promissory note to $268,663 (see Note 15 - Variable Interest Entity). No success fee was paid to Mr. Brogdon pursuant to the Consulting Agreement in the years ended December 31, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
In December 2012, the Company entered into agreements to indemnify Mr. Brogdon with respect to certain personal guarantees Mr. Brogdon previously made with respect to loans on the Hembree Facility and the Red Rose facility. The Company has agreed to reimburse Mr. Brogdon for any costs, losses, damages, claims and expenses under the guarantees so long they are not due to Mr. Brogdon's gross negligence, fraud, intentional misrepresentation, willful misconduct, bad faith or criminal act.
Settlement and Indemnification Agreement.

The annual rent under the sublease agreement in the first two years will approximate $1.0 million annually, and the annual rent will escalate at 3.0% annually through the lease term.
In connection with the sublease agreements, the current licensed operators (wholly-owned subsidiaries of LaGrange Sublessor) and the LaGrange Sublessee also entered into an operations transfer agreement with respect to the applicable facility, containing customary terms and conditions relating to the transfer of operations of skilled nursing facilities.
North Carolina and South Carolina Subleases
On February 25, 2015, two wholly-owned subsidiaries (each, a “Symmetry Healthcare Sublessor”) of the Company entered into separate sublease agreements pursuant to which each Symmetry Healthcare Sublessor will lease one skilled nursing facility located in North Carolina and South Carolina respectively, and owned by a subsidiary of AdCare, to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Symmetry Healthcare Management (each, a "Symmetry Healthcare Sublessee"), commencing on May 1, 2015, subject to, among other things: (i) such Symmetry Healthcare Sublessee’s receipt of all licenses and other approvals from the states of North Carolina and South Carolina to operate such facility respectively; and (ii) approval of the mortgage lender with respect to such facility. Each sublease agreement is structured as triple net lease wherein the Symmetry Healthcare Sublessee is responsible for the day-to-day operation, ongoing maintenance, taxes and insurance for the duration of the sublease. Pursuant to each sublease agreement, the initial lease term is fifteen years with a five-year renewal option. The annual rent under all of the sublease agreements in the first year will be $1.8 million in the aggregate, and the annual rent under each sublease will escalate at 3% each year through the initial term and upon renewal. The sublease agreements are cross-defaulted.
In connection with entering into the sublease agreements, each Symmetry Healthcare Sublessor and Symmetry Healthcare Sublessee also entered into an operations transfer agreement with respect to the applicable North Carolina and South Carolina facilities, each containing customary terms and conditions.
Third Amendment to Letter Agreement
On March 25, 2015, AdCare and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a third amendment to the Letter Agreement, as amended (the “Letter Agreement Third Amendment”), with Mr. Brogdon and entities controlled by him, pursuant to which Riverchase and the Company agreed to amend the promissory notes issued by Riverchase to the Company to: (i) increase the principal amount due under the promissory note issued by Riverchase to the Company by any additional real property tax payments made by the Company with respect to the Riverchase Village facility and (ii) to state that such promissory note would not bear interest.
The Letter Agreement Third Amendment amended the Letter Agreement to provide a schedule for the payment to the Company of the net sales proceeds resulting from a sale of the Riverchase Village facility to a third-party purchaser. The net sales proceeds from such sale shall be distributed to the Company as follows: (i) an amount sufficient to satisfy all amounts due and owing under the promissory note issued by Riverchase to the Company; (ii) one-half of the then remaining net sales proceeds; (iii) an amount sufficient to satisfy the amounts due and owing under the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon to the Company; and (d) the then remaining balance of net sales proceeds.
In connection with the Letter Agreement Third Amendment, the Company and Mr. Brogdon agreed to amend the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon to the Company. Pursuant to this amendment, the principal balance plus any accrued interest under the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon to the Company shall be due and payable on the earlier of: (i) December 31, 2015; or (ii) the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility.
Subordinated Convertible Notes Issued in 2015 (the "2015 Notes")
On March 31, 2015, the Company privately placed $8.5 million of Convertible Subordinated Notes Due April 30, 2017 (the “2015 Notes”). The 2015 Notes pay 10% interest per annum and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $4.25 per share. The net proceeds from the placement will be used to refinance the 2014 Notes and for general corporate purposes, see Part II, Item 9B - Other Information.
Disposition Agreements
In March 2015, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement to sell Companions Specialized Care Center, a 102-bed skilled nursing facility located in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Closing is expected after completion of customary closing conditions.
Legal Settlement
On March 30, 2015, a settlement agreement was executed to settle all claims for a lump sum payment of $2.0 million. Under the settlement agreement, the Company is to pay $0.6 million to the plaintiffs with the balance thereof to be paid by two of the Company's insurance carriers. The Company and the other defendants in the matter deny all of the Plaintiff's claims and any wrongdoing but agreed to settle the matter to avoid the continued expense and unpredictability of litigation. For a further description of this legal proceeding, see Note 16 - Commitments and Contingencies - "Legal Matters".
Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer (who is our principal financial officer), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer (who is our principal financial officer), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report (the "Evaluation Date"). Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer (who is our principal financial officer), have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014. In making this evaluation, management used the framework and criteria set forth in the report entitled Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). The COSO framework summarizes each of the components of a company's internal control system, including: (i) the control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication and (v) monitoring. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefit of controls must be considered relative to their costs.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management's report in this Annual Report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 9B. Other Information
10% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due April 30, 2017 (the “2015 Notes”)
On March 31, 2015, the Company entered into Subscription Agreements with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company accepted subscriptions for an aggregate of $8,500,000 in principal amount of the Company’s 10% Convertible S
ubordinated Notes Due April 30, 2017. In connection therewith, the Company issued $1,685,000 in principal amount of 2015 Notes on March 31, 2015, and will issue 2015 Notes for the remaining principal amount of the accepted subscriptions on or before April 30, 2015, upon receipt of payment thereof. The 2015 Notes bear interest at 10.0% per annum and such interest is payable quarterly in cash in arrears beginning on June 30, 2015. The 2015 Notes mature on April 30, 2017. The 2015 Notes are unsecured and subordinated in right of payment to existing and future senior indebtedness of the Company.
The 2015 Notes are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of common stock at an initial conversion price equal to $4.25 per share. If, prior to September 30, 2015, the Company issues or sells any shares of common stock or common stock equivalents (excluding certain excluded securities, as defined in the 2015 Notes) for a consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) less than the conversion price then in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale, then immediately after such issuance or sale the conversion price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price (an “Adjustment for Dilutive Issuances”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Adjustment for Dilutive Issuances shall be effected to the extent it would cause the number of shares of common stock issued, plus the number of shares of common stock issuable, in respect of all 2015 Notes in the aggregate to exceed 3,850,405 shares of common stock. In addition, the conversion price will be subject to adjustment for any subdivision (by stock dividend, stock split or similar corporation action) or combination (by reverse stock split or similar corporate action) of the common stock.
The Company may prepay at any time, without penalty, upon 60 days prior notice, any portion of the outstanding principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest thereon with respect to any 2015 Note; provided, however, that: (i) the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of any 2015 Note which is to be so prepaid must be: (a) registered for resale under the Securities Act; or (b) otherwise sellable under Rule 144 of the Securities Act without volume limitations thereunder; (ii) at any time after the issue date of such 2015 Note, the volume-weighted average price of the common stock for ten consecutive trading days has equaled or exceeded 125% of the then-current conversion price; and (iii) such prepayment may not be effected prior to March 31, 2016.
The holders holding a majority of the outstanding principal amount with respect to all the 2015 Notes may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the 2015 Notes upon a change of control (as defined in the 2015 Notes) for a redemption price equal to the outstanding principal amount to be redeemed plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon. In addition, upon a change of control, the Company may redeem all or any portion of the 2015 Notes for a redemption price equal to the outstanding principal amount to be redeemed plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.
During the existence and continuance of an event of default under a 2015 Note, the outstanding principal amount of such 2015 Note shall incur interest at a rate of 14% per annum, and the holder of such 2015 Note may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of such 2015 Note at a redemption price in cash equal to the outstanding principal amount to be redeemed plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon. An “event of default,” with respect to a 2015 Note includes: (i) the Company’s failure to pay to the holder of such 2015 Note any amount of principal or interest by the 7th business day following the date when due under such 2015 Note; and (ii) specific events of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or liquidation.
On March 31, 2015, the Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the investors pursuant to which the Company has agreed to file, no later than April 30, 2015, a registration statement with the SEC to register the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the 2015 Notes and to use the Company’s best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable after filing.
The 2015 Notes were issued without registration under the Securities Act in reliance upon the exemption from registration set forth in Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Company based such reliance upon representations made by each investor to the Company regarding lack of general solicitation and such investor’s investment intent, sophistication and status as an “accredited investor,” as defined in Regulation D, among other things.
In connection with the offering, Institutional Securities Corporation, the placement agent in the offering, is entitled to receive from the Company a placement agent fee of approximately $146,000 (assuming payment of all 2015 Notes subscribed for by investors identified by the placement agent). Institutional Securities Corporation is affiliated with Doucet Asset Management, LLC, a greater than 5% beneficial owner of the common stock. See Part III, Item 12, “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters” and Part III, Item 13, “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence.”
In the offering, the Company accepted Subscription Agreements from certain related parties. See Part III, Item 13, “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence.”
Appointment of President and Chief Financial Officer
On March 25, 2015, the Board appointed Allan J. Rimland to serve as the Company’s President and Chief Financial Officer, effective April 1, 2015.
In connection with Mr. Rimland’s appointment, the Company and Mr. Rimland executed an employment agreement, effective as of April 1, 2015, pursuant to which the Company will employ Mr. Rimland as its President and Chief Financial Officer on the following terms: (i) the Company will pay to Mr. Rimland an annual base salary of $250,000, subject to increase by the Compensation Committee; (ii) Mr. Rimland will be eligible to earn an annual bonus based on achievement of performance goals established by the Compensation Committee of up to 100% of his base salary; and (iii) the Company will provide Mr. Rimland with such other benefits as other senior executives of the Company receive. Pursuant to the employment agreement, the Company will employ Mr. Rimland for an initial term of three years, subject to automatic consecutive renewal terms of one year unless notice of non−renewal is provided pursuant to the employment agreement.
In connection with Mr. Rimland’s employment, the Company will grant to Mr. Rimland on April 1, 2015: (i) pursuant to the Company’s 2011 Stock Incentive Plan, 125,000 shares of restricted common stock (the “Restricted Stock Award”), which shall vest as to one-third of the shares on each of the three subsequent anniversaries of the grant date; and (ii) a ten-year warrant to purchase 275,000 shares of common stock (the “Warrant”), with an exercise price per share equal to $4.25 (the “Warrant Shares”). The Warrant shall vest as to one-third of the Warrant Shares on each of the three subsequent anniversaries of the grant. The vesting of the Restricted Stock Award and the Warrant will accelerate upon termination of Mr. Rimland’s employment (other than a termination by the Company for cause or by Mr. Rimland without good reason). Under the employment agreement, the Company also will pay to Mr. Rimland an additional bonus during each applicable year to reimburse him for any state and federal income tax liability he incurs as a result of the vesting of the Restricted Stock Award (whether by the passage of time or upon acceleration of vesting), which bonus amount shall be “grossed up” to compensate Mr. Rimland for the additional tax liability of such bonus.
If Mr. Rimland is terminated for cause, then he shall receive any accrued but unpaid salary through his termination date. If Mr. Rimland terminates his employment without good reason, then he shall receive any accrued but unpaid salary through his termination date and any earned but unpaid bonus amounts with respect to the preceding completed fiscal year.
In the event that: (i) Mr. Rimland is terminated without cause; (ii) Mr. Rimland terminates his employment for good reason; (iii) Mr. Rimland is terminated in a change of control termination; or (iv) the Company declines to renew the employment agreement after its initial term or any subsequent term, then: (a) Mr. Rimland will receive a lump sum amount equal to two times his then−current base salary; (b) the Restricted Stock Award and the Warrant shall automatically accelerate so as to be fully vested as of his termination date; and (c) Mr. Rimland will be reimbursed for monthly premiums paid by him under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 for up to 18 months. In the event Mr. Rimland is terminated due to his death or disability, Mr. Rimland (or his estate or beneficiaries, as the case may be) shall receive a lump sum severance payment equal to all accrued and unpaid salary through the date of termination plus a pro-rata bonus payment amount calculated as the product of any bonus Mr. Rimland would have earned for the fiscal year times a fraction representing the portion of the year he was employed prior to such termination.
For purposes of the employment agreement, the terms “cause,” “good reason” and a “change of control termination” have the same meanings as such terms are defined in the Employment Agreement between the Company and William McBride, III, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. See Part III, Item 11, “Executive Compensation - Employment Agreements with Current Officers - William McBride, III.”
The Warrant was issued as an inducement to Mr. Rimland’s employment with the Company. The Warrant and the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant will be issued without registration under the Securities Act, pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act afforded by Section 4(a)(2) thereof. The Company relied upon such exemption because, among other things, the issuance of the Warrant was an isolated private transaction by the Company which did not involve a public offering and did not involve any general solicitation or general advertising.
From 2011 through February 2015, Mr. Rimland, age 52, served as a Managing Director at Stephens Inc., a financial services firm, within its Investment Banking Group. In part, Mr. Rimland was responsible for originating and leading mergers and acquisitions and capital raising transactions for healthcare services clients. During the three years prior to working at Stephen Inc., Mr. Rimland was a Managing Director at JMP Securities LLC, an investment bank, where he served as Co-Head of its Healthcare Services and IT Investment Banking Group. At JMP Securities, LLC, Mr. Rimland focused on mergers and acquisitions and public and private equity capital raising for healthcare services clients.

Amendment to Employment Agreement
On March 25, 2015, the Company and William McBride, III (the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board) entered into an amendment to his employment agreement, dated October 10, 2014. The amendment modified the employment agreement to: (i) provide that Mr. McBride’s base salary would not be reduced in the second year of the employment agreement but would continue to be $300,000 per year; and (ii) clarify that the Company will pay to Mr. McBride an additional bonus during each applicable year to reimburse him for any state and federal income tax liability he incurs as a result of the vesting of the awards of restricted common stock granted under the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan and in accordance with the employment agreement (whether by the passage of time or upon acceleration of vesting), which bonus amount shall be “grossed up” to compensate Mr. McBride for the additional tax liability of such bonus.
Issuance of Other Unregistered Securities
Between March 21, 2015 and March 25, 2015, the Company issued to holders of the Company’s warrants dated, April 1, 2012, 128,125 shares of common stock upon exercise thereof. The warrants had an exercise price of $3.81 per share. The shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants were issued pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act afforded by Section 4(a)(2) thereof. The Company relied upon such exemption based upon the private nature of the transaction, the lack of general solicitation and representations made by each such holder regarding, among other things, the holder’s sophistication and access to information about the Company. The Company received proceeds from the exercise of the warrants of approximately $0.5 million.
On March 27, 2015, the Company issued to holders of the Company’s warrants, dated March 30, 2012, 315,000 shares of common stock upon exercise thereof. The warrants had an exercise price of $3.81 per share. The shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants were issued pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act afforded by Section 4(a)(2) thereof.

The Company received proceeds of approximately $1.2 million.

Arrangements with Directors Regarding Election/Appointment
William McBride, III. Pursuant the employment agreement the Company has entered into with Mr. McBride, the Board appointed Mr. McBride to the Board as a Class I director in October 2014, to serve until the Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held in 2017, or until his successor is duly elected and qualified or until his earlier death, resignation or removal. The Company has agreed, subject to applicable law, regulation and the Company’s organizational documents, to continue to nominate Mr. McBride as a director throughout the term of his employment.
Michael J. Fox. On October 1, 2013, we entered into a letter agreement (the “Fox Agreement”) with Park City and Mr. Fox. Pursuant to the Fox Agreement, effective October 1, 2013, the Board of Directors increased the size of the Board of Directors from nine to ten members and appointed Mr. Fox as a director of the Company to fill the vacancy created thereby for a term that expired at the 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. We also agreed: (i) to include Mr. Fox in our slate of nominees for election as a Class I director at the 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on December 12, 2013 to hold office until the 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders; and (ii) to use our reasonable best efforts to cause the re-election of Mr. Fox to the Board of Directors as a Class I director at the 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
Pursuant to the Fox Agreement, for so long as Mr. Fox serves on the Board of Directors as a nominee of the Board of Directors, Park City shall take such action as may be required so that all of the capital stock of the Company which is entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Voting Securities”) and is beneficially owned by Park City, or any person who, within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, is “controlling,” “controlled by” or “under common control with” Park City (the “Park City Group”), is voted in favor of each of the Board of Directors' nominees to the Board of Directors at any and all meetings of our shareholders or at any adjournment or postponement thereof or in any other circumstance in connection with which a vote, consent or other approval of holders of Voting Securities is sought with respect to the election of any nominee to the Board of Directors.
In addition, for so long as Mr. Fox serves on the Board of Directors as a nominee of the Board of Directors, Park City will not do or agree or commit to do (or encourage any other person to do or agree or commit to do) and will not permit any member of the Park City Group or any affiliate or associate thereof to do or agree or commit to do (or encourage any other person to do or agree or commit to do) any of the following:
(i) solicit proxies or written consents of shareholders with respect to any Voting Securities, or make, or in any way participate in, any solicitation of any proxy to vote any Voting Securities (other than as conducted by us), or become a participant in any election contest with respect to us;
(ii) seek to call, or request the call of, a special meeting of shareholders or seek to make, or make, any shareholder proposal at any meeting of shareholders that has not first been approved in writing by the Board of Directors;
(iii) make any request or seek to obtain, in any fashion that would require public disclosure by us, Park City or their respective affiliates, any waiver or amendment of any provision of the Fox Agreement or take any action restricted thereby; and
(vi) except as permitted by the Fox Agreement, make or cause to be made any statement or announcement that constitutes an ad hominem attack on us or our officers or directors in any document or report filed with or furnished to the SEC or any other governmental agency or in any press release or other publicly available format.
Furthermore, pursuant to the Fox Agreement, for so long as Mr. Fox serves on the Board of Directors as a nominee of the Board of Directors, Mr. Fox agrees to comply with all applicable policies and guidelines of the Company and, consistent with his fiduciary duties and his obligations of confidentiality as a member of the Board of Directors, to refrain from communicating to anyone any nonpublic information about us that he learns in his capacity as a member of the Board of Directors (which agreement shall remain in effect after Mr. Fox leaves the Board of Directors). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mr. Fox may communicate such information to any member of the Park City Group who agrees to be bound by the same confidentiality restrictions applicable to Mr. Fox, provided that Mr. Fox shall be liable for any breach of such confidentiality by any such member. In addition, Mr. Fox has confirmed that each of the other members of the Park City Group has agreed not to trade in any of our securities while in possession of any nonpublic material information about us if and to the extent doing so would be
in violation of applicable law or, without the prior written approval of the Board of Directors, to trade in any of our securities during any blackout period imposed by us.
Audit Committee of the Board of Directors
The Company has a separately designated Audit Committee which was established in accordance with Section 3(e)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act. The Audit Committee has the responsibility of reviewing our financial statements, evaluating internal accounting controls, reviewing reports of regulatory authorities and determining that all audits and examinations required by law are performed. The Audit Committee also approves the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm for the next fiscal year, approves the services to be provided by such firm and the fees for such services, reviews and approves the audit plans, reviews and reports upon various matters affecting the independence of the independent registered public accounting firm and reviews with it the results of the audit and management's responses.
The Audit Committee was established in 1995, and its charter was adopted in December 2005. From January 1, 2014, through January 3, 2015, the Audit Committee was comprised of Messrs. Hackett and Radcliffe and Larry E. Sturtz (who resigned from the Board effective January 3, 2015). Mr. Morrison was appointed as a member of the Audit Committee effective October 10, 2014. Accordingly, the current members of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Hackett, Morrison and Radcliffe. Mr. Fox has been appointed as a member of the Audit Committee effective April 1, 2015, to replace Mr. Hackett who has resigned from the Board effective April 1, 2015. Each of Messrs. Fox, Hackett, Morrison, Radcliffe and Sturtz is considered "independent," as independence for Audit Committee members is defined in the applicable rules of the NYSE MKT listing standards and the rules of the SEC. The Board of Directors has designated Peter J. Hackett as Chairman of the Audit Committee and has determined that Mr. Hackett is an "audit committee financial expert" as defined by Item 407 of Regulation S-K of the Exchange Act. Mr. Morrison is also an "audit committee financial expert" as defined by Item 407 of Regulation S-K of the Exchange Act.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires executive officers and directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock (the "Reporting Persons") to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with the SEC. Reporting Persons are required by SEC rules to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely on a review of the copies of such forms furnished to the Company and written representations from the executive officers and directors, the Company believes that the Reporting Persons complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements during fiscal 2014, except that Ms. Wolf did not file a Form 3 when she assumed the role of our principal financial officer in October, 2014 and Mr. Morrison was late on filing a Form 3.
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a written code of conduct, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which is applicable to all directors, officers and employees of AdCare (including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, and any person performing similar functions). Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available in the corporate governance subsection of the investors section of our website, www.adcarehealth.com, and is also available in print upon written request to our Corporate Secretary, AdCare Health Systems, Inc., 1145 Hembree Road, Roswell, Georgia 30076.

See Part II, Item 9B., “Other Information - Amendment to Employment Agreement.” Pursuant to the employment agreement, as amended, the Company will employ Mr. McBride as its Chief Executive Officer on the following terms: (i) the Company will pay to Mr. McBride an annual base salary of $300,000, subject to increase by the Compensation Committee; (ii) Mr. McBride will be eligible to earn an annual bonus based on achievement of performance goals established by the Compensation Committee of up to 100% of his base salary; and (iii) the Company will provide Mr. McBride with such other benefits as other senior executives of the Company receive. Pursuant to the employment agreement, the Company will employ Mr. McBride for an initial term of three years, subject to automatic consecutive renewal terms of one year unless notice of non-renewal is provided pursuant to the employment agreement.
In connection with Mr. McBride’s employment, the Company granted to Mr. McBride: (i) on October 10, 2014, 150,000 shares of restricted common stock, which shall vest as to one-third of the shares on each of the three subsequent anniversaries of the grant date; (ii) on January 1, 2015, 50,000 shares of restricted common stock, which shall vest as to one-third of the shares on each of the three subsequent anniversaries of the grant date; and (iii) on October 10, 2014, a ten-year warrant to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock, with an exercise price of $4.49, which shall vest as to one-third of the shares on each of the three subsequent anniversaries of the grant date. The awards of restricted common stock were granted under the Company’s 2011 Stock Incentive Plan. Under the employment agreement, the Company also will pay to Mr. McBride an additional bonus during each applicable year to reimburse him for any state and federal income tax liability he incurs as a result of the vesting of his restricted stock awards (whether by the passage of time or upon acceleration of vesting), which bonus amount shall be “grossed up” to compensate Mr. McBride for the additional tax liability of such bonus.
If Mr. McBride is terminated for cause, then he shall receive any accrued but unpaid salary through his termination date. If Mr. McBride terminates his employment without good reason, then he shall receive any accrued but unpaid salary through his termination date and any earned but unpaid bonus amounts with respect to the preceding completed fiscal year.
In the event that: (i) Mr. McBride is terminated without cause; (ii) Mr. McBride terminates his employment for good reason; (iii) Mr. McBride is terminated in a change of control termination; or (iv) the Company declines to renew the employment agreement
after its initial term or any subsequent term, then: (a) except in the case of a nonrenewal by the Company, Mr. McBride will receive a lump sum amount equal to $700,000 if the termination date occurs prior to October 10, 2017 and two times his then−current base salary if the termination date occurs thereafter; (b) in the case of nonrenewal by the Company, Mr. McBride will receive a lump sum amount equal to two times his then−current base salary; (c) the awards of restricted stock and the warrant granted to Mr. McBride shall automatically accelerate so as to be fully vested as of his termination date; and (d) Mr. McBride will be reimbursed for monthly premiums paid by him under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 for up to 18 months.
In the event Mr. McBride is terminated due to his death or disability, Mr. McBride (or his estate or beneficiaries, as the case may be) shall receive a lump sum severance payment equal to all accrued and unpaid salary through the date of termination plus a pro−rata bonus payment amount calculated as the product of any bonus Mr. McBride would have earned for the fiscal year times a fraction representing the portion of the year he was employed prior to such termination.
For purposes of the employment agreement: (i) a termination shall be deemed for “cause,” only if it is based upon conviction of (or pleading guilty or nolo contendere to) a felony, material disloyalty to the Company, or Mr. McBride having engaged in unethical or illegal behavior which is of a public nature and results in material damage to the Company; (ii) “good reason” means a material diminution in Mr. McBride’s authority or responsibilities, a material change in the geographic location at which Mr. McBride must regularly perform the services to be performed by him, any other action or inaction that constitutes a material breach by the Company of the employment agreement, or, subject to certain notice and cure provisions, the failure by the Company to continue in effect any material benefit plan in which Mr. McBride participates and such failure occurs during the period commencing three months prior to a change of control (as defined in the agreement) and ending one year after a change of control; and (iii) a “change of control termination” means that, during the three months prior, or within one year after, a change of control, Mr. McBride is terminated without cause or he terminates his employment for good reason.

Mr. Tenwick ceased serving as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer upon Mr. McBride’s appointment thereto, effective October 10, 2014, and ceased serving as Chairman of the Board upon Mr. McBride’s appointment thereto, effective March 25, 2015. Mr. Tenwick continues to serve as a director.
Boyd P. Gentry. Boyd P. Gentry stepped down from his position as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and his position as a member of the Board, effective June 1, 2014.

Mr. Gentry also received, upon execution of his employment agreement in 2011, equity compensation in the form of a warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock, with an exercise price equal to $4.13 per share. As a result of certain anti-dilution adjustments, at the time of Mr. Gentry’s separation from the Company the warrant represented the right to purchase 275,626 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.75. The warrant was originally scheduled to vest as to one-third of the underlying shares on each of January 10, 2011, January 9, 2012 and January 9, 2013. The warrant was exercised on a cashless basis in 2014.

Pursuant to the separation agreement and the employment agreement, Mr. Rubenstein became entitled to receive, in connection with his separation from the Company, a bonus in the amount of $138,938 and severance payments in the amount $352,605. The amount of the severance payments equal his annual salary plus accrued but unpaid vacation and is payable in substantially equal monthly installments for a period of twelve (12) months after his termination date. For such period, Mr. Rubenstein and his family are entitled to continue to be covered under all employee benefit plans of the Company under which executive officers of the Company are covered and at the same cost and under the same terms and conditions as apply to executive officers.
Prior to his separation from the Company, Mr. Rubenstein was employed pursuant to an employment agreement, effective December 19, 2011, which provided for: (i) an annual base salary of $300,000 per year, which increased to $325,000 effective June 30, 2012; (ii) an annual performance bonus of up to 75% of the annual salary based on standards established by the Compensation Committee; and (iii) a one-time signing bonus of $150,000. Pursuant to the Cash Compensation Reduction Program and in respect of the year ended December 31, 2014, Mr. Rubenstein accepted $25,000 of his annual salary in options to purchase common stock issued pursuant to the Company’s 2011 Stock Incentive Plan in lieu of cash compensation otherwise payable to him. Pursuant to the employment agreement, on December 19, 2011, Mr. Rubenstein received equity compensation in the form of: (i) a warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock, with an exercise price equal to $4.13 per share, which warrant was originally scheduled to vest as to one-third of the underlying shares on each of the three subsequent anniversaries of the grant date; and (ii) a warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock, with an exercise price equal to $4.97 per share, which warrant
was originally scheduled to vest as to one-third of the underlying shares on each of the second, third and fourth anniversaries of the grant date. As a result of such anti-dilution adjustments, the warrants represented at the time of Mr. Rubenstein’s separation from the Company the right to purchase: (i) 105,000 shares at an exercise price of $3.93 per share; and (ii) 105,000 shares at an exercise price of $4.58 per share. Thirty days after his resignation, all vested but unexercised option awards held by Mr. Rubenstein expired.
Stock Incentive Plans
At our 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 3, 2011, the shareholders adopted the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan. The 2011 Stock Incentive Plan is intended to further the growth and profitability of our Company by providing increased incentives to encourage share ownership on the part of key employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors who render services to us and any future parent or subsidiary of ours, including our named executive officers. The 2011 Stock Incentive Plan permits the granting of stock options and restricted stock awards (collectively, “Awards”) to eligible participants. At our 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 1, 2012, the shareholders adopted an amendment to the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan that increased the maximum number of shares of Company stock that may be granted under the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan from 1,000,000 to an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares. Subject to the terms of the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan, the Compensation Committee has the sole discretion to determine the persons who will be granted Awards under the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan and the terms and conditions of such Awards, and to construe and interpret the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan. The Compensation Committee is also responsible for making adjustments in outstanding Awards, the shares available for Awards, and the numerical limitations for Awards to reflect transactions such as stock splits and dividends. The Compensation Committee may delegate its authority to one or more directors or officers; provided, however, that the Committee may not delegate its authority and powers: (i) with respect to Section 16 reporting persons; or (ii) in any way which would jeopardize the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan’s qualifying under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. The 2011 Stock Incentive Plan allows for the exercise of options through cash, or with the consent of the Compensation Committee: (1) by tendering previously acquired shares; (2) by tendering a full recourse promissory note of the optionee; (3) through a cashless exercise without the payment of cash by reducing the number of shares of common stock that would be obtainable upon the exercise of the option; (4) through a brokerage transaction; or (5) through any combination of the foregoing. The 2011 Stock Incentive Plan provides the issuance of both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options.
Retirement Programs
Our retirement programs are designed to facilitate the retirement of employees, including our named executive officers, who have performed for us over the long term. We currently maintain a 401(k) plan with a match of 50% of the first 2% of an employee’s contribution as well as non-qualified employee stock purchase program. The terms of these plans are essentially the same for all employees. Our named executive officers participate in the plans on the same basis as all other employees. We do not provide our named executive officers any special retirement benefits.

Director Compensation
Director Compensation and Reimbursement Arrangements
For the year ended December 31, 2014, our independent directors were paid $6,000 per month plus an additional: (i) $1,500 per month if serving as a chairperson of one of the committees of the Board; and (ii) $500 per month if serving on more than one committee. During 2014, Mr. Tenwick was paid $11,000 per month for his services as the Chairman of the Board of Directors.
Pursuant to the Cash Compensation Reduction Program adopted by the Compensation Committee and the Board on November 12, 2013, certain of the cash compensation described above and otherwise payable to our directors for 2014 was replaced with equity. The Cash Compensation Reduction Program provided that: (i) director fees otherwise payable in cash to our independent directors for service on the Board would be paid 50% in cash and 50% in options to purchase common stock granted pursuant to the Company’s 2011 Stock Incentive Plan; and (ii) $50,000 of the compensation otherwise payable in cash to Mr. Tenwick for his service as Chairman of the Board would be paid in options to purchase common stock granted pursuant to the Company’s 2011 Stock Incentive Plan. In connection with the Cash Compensation Reduction Program, option grants were made to our independent directors on November 12, 2013, in respect of compensation for 2014. The options had an exercise price equal to the fair market value (as defined in the Company’s 2011 Stock Incentive Plan) of the common stock on the date of grant. The options vested with respect to one-twelfth of the underlying shares of common stock on the last day of each month of 2014. The options granted pursuant to the Cash Compensation Reduction Program were reported as director compensation in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement for its 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
On December 17, 2014, the Compensation Committee and the Board approved a new director compensation plan for the year ending December 31, 2015. Pursuant to this plan, director fees for all non-employee directors (including Mr. Brogdon) will be $25,000, payable in restricted stock awards or options to purchase common stock granted pursuant to the Company’s 2011 Stock Incentive Plan. In accordance with this plan, on December 17, 2014: (i) Messrs. Brogdon, Radcliffe and Tenwick were granted restricted stock awards of 19,231 shares of common stock with a grant price of $3.90 per share, which shall vest as to one-third of the shares on each of the three subsequent anniversaries of the grant date; (ii) Messrs.

Fox and Morrison were granted options to purchase 51,865 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $3.90 per share, which shall vest as to one-third of the shares on each of the three subsequent anniversaries of the grant date.
Non-employee directors are reimbursed for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses for travel in connection with their duties as directors.

Brogdon Consulting Agreement
In December 2012, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Mr. Brogdon pursuant to which Mr. Brogdon is compensated by the Company for providing consulting services related to the acquisition and financing of skilled nursing facilities. The consulting agreement was originally scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2015. As compensation for his services under the consulting agreement, Mr. Brogdon was originally entitled to receive: (i) $10,000 per month in year one; (ii) $15,000 per month in year two; and (iii) $20,000 per month in year three of the consulting agreement. In addition, Mr. Brogdon was originally entitled to receive a success fee of $20,000 for each completed transaction; provided, however, that barring a majority vote of the Board, such success fees on a one-year basis could not exceed $80,000 in year one, $120,000 in year two and $160,000 in year three of the consulting agreement. In addition, no success fee would be payable for transactions involving leased facilities or transactions in which the overall consideration is less than $2,500,000. If the consulting agreement was terminated by the Company without cause, the Company would provide severance pay to Mr. Brogdon in an amount equal to eighteen (18) months of Mr. Brogdon’s maximum total compensation (including success fees). No success fee was paid to Mr. Brogdon pursuant to the consulting agreement in the years ended December 31, 2013 or 2014.
On May 6, 2014, the Company and Mr. Brogdon entered into an amendment to the consulting agreement to amend it to restructure the compensation payable to Mr. Brogdon thereunder. The amended consulting agreement eliminated the monthly payments to Mr. Brogdon and instead provided for an aggregate consulting fee equal to $400,000, among other things, as described below:
| |
• | Under the amended consulting agreement, Mr. Brogdon is entitled to receive a success fee of $25,000 (increased from $20,000 under the original consulting agreement) for each potential acquisition identified by Mr. Brogdon which the Company completes; provided, however, that the success fee shall not exceed $160,000 in any calendar year without a majority vote of the Board. |
| |
• | The fee originally payable to Mr. Brogdon upon termination of the original consulting agreement without cause (approximately $550,000 for such termination prior to a change of control and approximately $1.1 million for such termination within six months after a change of control) was eliminated in the amended consulting agreement. Instead, Mr. Brogdon will receive a change of control fee of $500,000 if a change of control (as defined in the amended consulting agreement) occurs on or before May 1, 2015 and the amended consulting agreement has not been earlier terminated. If a change of control occurs after May 1, 2015, then no change of control fee is payable. The amended consulting agreement will terminate immediately upon a change of control and any accrued and unpaid success fee and change of control fee (if applicable) will be paid to Mr. Brogdon upon the closing of the change of control. |
Pursuant to the amended consulting agreement, the Company made a one-time payment of $100,000 in respect of the $400,000 consulting fee on May 6, 2014, and was obligated to pay the remainder of the consulting fee in monthly payments of $15,000, which payments commenced on June 1, 2014. The amended consulting agreement also provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Riverchase Village facility (which is owned by an entity which is owned and controlled by Mr. Brogdon and that is our VIE) was sold prior to September 1, 2014, then the amount of the unpaid consulting fee would be reduced by (and offset against) the aggregate principal balance owed by Mr. Brogdon to the Company under the promissory note executed by Mr. Brogdon in favor of the Company, with any remaining balance of the consulting fee owed to Mr. Brogdon to be paid in cash at closing. However, because the sale of the Riverchase Village facility was not completed prior to September 1, 2014, the balance of the consulting fee owed to Mr. Brogdon by the Company in the amount of $255,000 was offset against the remaining amount owed by Mr. Brogdon to the Company under the promissory note, thereby reducing the principal amount of the promissory note to $268,663 (see Note 15 - Variable Interest Entities).
The amended consulting agreement has an indefinite term, subject to the termination of the agreement by either party for cause (subject to a cure period) or by Mr. Brogdon without cause.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence
Related Party Transactions
Riverchase. On April 9, 2010, Riverchase Village ADK, LLC (“Riverchase”), then a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Purchase Agreement with an Oklahoma limited liability company controlled by a bank (“Riverchase Seller”) to acquire the assets of Riverchase Village, a 105-bed assisted living facility located in Hoover, Alabama, for a purchase price of approximately $5.0 million. On June 22, 2010, the Company assigned to Christopher Brogdon (a director of the Company, beneficial owner of more than 5% of the common stock and the Company’s former Chief Acquisition Officer) 100% of the membership interests in Riverchase. On June 25, 2010, Riverchase, then owned by Mr. Brogdon, purchased the Riverchase Village facility pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement.
In connection with financing of the acquisition of the Riverchase Village facility, Riverchase borrowed from the Medical Clinic Board of the City of Hoover the proceeds from the issuance of $5.8 million First Mortgage Healthcare Facility Revenue Bonds (Series 2010 A) and $0.5 million First Mortgage Revenue Bonds (Series B), which proceeds were used to acquire Riverchase Village facility, pay the cost of certain repairs and improvements to Riverchase Village, fund certain services and pay the cost of the issuance of the bonds. As part of the financing, AdCare guaranteed Riverchase’s obligations under the bonds. See Part II, Item 7, “Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Coalition - Notes Payable and Other Debt - Senior Debt - Bonds, Net of Discount - Riverchase.”
As consideration for the assignment of 100% of the membership interests in Riverchase to Mr. Brogdon and AdCare’s guaranteeing the bonds, Mr. Brogdon granted to a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company an exclusive and irrevocable option pursuant to an Option Agreement to acquire Riverchase (the “Riverchase Option”) through June 22, 2012 for an exercise price of $100,000 and otherwise under the same terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. In addition, another wholly owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a five-year year Management Agreement with Riverchase pursuant to which such subsidiary supervised the management of the Riverchase Village facility for a monthly fee equal to 5% of the monthly gross revenues of the Riverchase Village facility. On June 22, 2013, the Company subsidiary and Riverchase agreed to mutually terminate the management agreement.
On July 26, 2012, the Company subsidiary and Mr. Brogdon amended the Option Agreement to extend the last date on which the Riverchase Option may be exercised through June 22, 2013. On June 22, 2013, the Company subsidiary and Mr. Brogdon further amended the Option Agreement to extend the last date on which the Riverchase Option may be exercised through June 22, 2014.
On December 18, 2013, Riverchase entered into a sales listing agreement to sell the Riverchase Village facility. On April 1, 2014, Riverchase entered into a purchase and sale agreement to sell the Riverchase Village facility to a third-party purchaser; however, the agreement was terminated on August 6, 2014.
See “-Letter Agreement with Brogdon” for a further description of the agreements with respect to the Riverchase Village facility and related matters.
Promissory Note Issued By Brogdon. On December 31, 2013, the Company notified certain entities controlled by Christopher Brogdon of the Company’s intent to terminate the management agreements between subsidiaries of the Company and such Brogdon entities under which the Company subsidiaries managed five skilled nursing facilities located in Oklahoma owned by the Brogdon entities and the Harrah Nursing Center, McLoud Nursing Center and Mecker Nursing Center, also owned by the Brogdon entities. Pursuant to the agreement: (i) the parties agreed to terminate the management agreements effective March 1, 2014 and (ii) Mr. Brogdon executed a promissory note in favor of the Company in principal amount of $523,663 which represented amounts owed as of March 1, 2014 (a) by the Brogdon entities pursuant to the management agreements and (b) by GL Nursing,
LLC (an entity controlled by Mr. Brogdon) to the Company in connection with the Company’s assignment in May 2012 of its rights to acquire Golden Years Manor. The promissory note was originally payable in five equal monthly installments commencing on September 1, 2014 and ending on December 31, 2014, and did not bear interest. See “-Harrah, McLoud and Meeker,” “-Oklahoma Facilities” and “-Golden Years Manor” below for a further description.
Letter Agreement with Brogdon. On March 3, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a letter agreement, dated as of February 28, 2014 (the “Letter Agreement”), with Christopher Brogdon and entities controlled by him which: (i) extended the Riverchase Option until June 22, 2015; and (ii) reduced the purchase price for the exercise of the Riverchase Option to $1.00. Furthermore, the Letter Agreement provided that, upon the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility to an arms-length third party purchaser, regardless of whether the Company has exercised the Riverchase Option, the net sales proceeds from such sale shall be distributed as follows: (a) one-half of the net sales proceeds will be paid to the Company; (b) the remaining net sales proceeds will be paid to the Company to satisfy the outstanding principal balance and interest (if any) then due under the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon in favor of the Company with an original principal amount of $523,663, with such payment to be applied in the order of scheduled amortization under the note; and (c) the balance of net sales proceeds will be paid to the Company.
On May 15, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an Amendment to the Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement First Amendment”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay $92,323 (the “Tax Payment”) to the appropriate governmental authorities of Jefferson County, Alabama, such amount representing outstanding real property taxes due on the Riverchase Village facility. The Company determined that it was in its best interest to make the Tax Payment in order to preserve the Company’s interest in the sale of the Riverchase Village facility. In connection with the Tax Payment, the parties also agreed to amend and restate the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon in favor of the Company to reflect a new principal amount of $615,986, which amount represents the original principal amount of the note plus the Tax Payment. Furthermore, the Letter Agreement First Amendment amended the Letter Agreement to provide that, if the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility does not occur on or before December 31, 2014, then a payment of principal under the amended and restated promissory note equal to the Tax Payment will be due and payable to the Company on or before January 31, 2015.
On October 10, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a second amendment to the Letter Agreement, as amended (the “Letter Agreement Second Amendment”), with Mr. Brogdon and entities controlled by Mr. Brogdon, pursuant to which the Company reduced the principal amount of the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon by the amount equal to $92,323 (which represents the amount of the Tax Payment) plus $255,000 (which represents an offset of amounts owed by the Company to Mr. Brogdon under his consulting agreement with the Company). See “-Consulting Agreement.”
The Letter Agreement Second Amendment also amended the Letter Agreement, as amended, to provide that upon the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility to a third party purchaser, the net sales proceeds from such sale shall be distributed so that any net sales proceeds shall first be paid to the Company to satisfy the $177,323 outstanding under the note issued by Riverchase to the Company, which note is discussed below.
AdCare is a guarantor of Riverchase’s obligations with respect to certain revenue bonds issued by the City of Hoover in connection with the Riverchase Village facility, and in order to preserve the Company’s interest in the sale of the Riverchase Village facility, the Company made a payment in the amount of $85,000 (the “Principal Obligation”) on behalf of Riverchase with respect to its obligations under the bonds. On October 10, 2014, Riverchase issued a promissory note in favor of the Company in the principal amount of $177,323, which represented the amount of Tax Payment plus the Principal Obligation. The note does not bear interest and is due upon the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility.
On March 25, 2015, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a third amendment to the Letter Agreement, as amended (the “Letter Agreement Third Amendment”), with Mr. Brogdon and entities controlled by him, pursuant to which Riverchase and the Company agreed to amend the promissory note issued by Riverchase to the Company to: (i) increase the principal amount due under the promissory note issued by Riverchase to the Company by any additional real property tax payments made by the Company with respect to the Riverchase Village facility and (ii) to state that such promissory note would not bear interest.
The Letter Agreement Third Amendment amended the Letter Agreement to provide a schedule for the payment to the Company of the net sales proceeds resulting from a sale of the Riverchase Village facility to a third-party purchaser. The net sales proceeds from such sale shall be distributed to the Company as follows: (i) an amount sufficient to satisfy all amounts due and owing under the promissory note issued by Riverchase to the Company; (ii) one-half of the then remaining net sales proceeds; (iii) an amount sufficient to satisfy the amounts due and owing under the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon to the Company; and (d) the then remaining balance of net sales proceeds.
In connection with the Letter Agreement Third Amendment, the Company and Mr. Brogdon agreed to amend the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon to the Company. Pursuant to this amendment, the principal balance plus any accrued interest under the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon to the Company shall be due and payable on the earlier of: (i) December 31, 2015; or (ii) the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility.
Consulting Agreement. In December 2012, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Christopher Brogdon pursuant to which he is compensated by the Company for providing consulting services related to the acquisition and financing of skilled nursing facilities. The consulting agreement was originally scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2015. As compensation for his services under the consulting agreement, Mr. Brogdon was originally entitled to receive: (i) $10,000 per month in year one; (ii) $15,000 per month in year two; and (iii) $20,000 per month in year three of the consulting agreement. In addition, Mr. Brogdon was originally entitled to receive a success fee of $20,000 for each completed transaction; provided, however, that barring a majority vote of the Board, such success fees on a one-year basis could not exceed $80,000 in year one, $120,000 in year two and $160,000 in year three of the consulting agreement. In addition, no success fee would be payable for transactions involving leased facilities or transactions in which the overall consideration is less than $2,500,000. If the consulting agreement was terminated by the Company without cause, the Company would provide severance pay to Mr. Brogdon in an amount equal to eighteen (18) months of Mr. Brogdon’s maximum total compensation (including success fees). No success fee was paid to Mr. Brogdon pursuant to the consulting agreement in the years ended December 31, 2013 or 2014.
On May 6, 2014, the Company and Mr. Brogdon entered into an amendment to the consulting agreement to amend it to restructure the compensation payable to Mr. Brogdon thereunder. The amended consulting agreement eliminated the monthly payments to Mr. Brogdon and instead provided for an aggregate consulting fee equal to $400,000, among other things, as described below:
| |
• | Under the amended consulting agreement, Mr. Brogdon is entitled to receive a success fee of $25,000 (increased from $20,000 under the original consulting agreement) for each potential acquisition identified by Mr. Brogdon which the Company completes; provided, however, that the success fee shall not exceed $160,000 in any calendar year without a majority vote of the Board. |
| |
• | The fee originally payable to Mr. Brogdon upon termination of the original consulting agreement without cause (approximately $550,000 for such termination prior to a change of control and approximately $1.1 million for such termination within six months after a change of control) was eliminated in the amended consulting agreement. Instead, Mr. Brogdon will receive a change of control fee of $500,000 if a change of control (as defined in the amended consulting agreement) occurs on or before May 1, 2015 and the amended consulting agreement has not been earlier terminated. If a change of control occurs after May 1, 2015, then no change of control fee is payable. The amended consulting agreement will terminate immediately upon a change of control and any accrued and unpaid success fee and change of control fee (if applicable) will be paid to Mr. Brogdon upon the closing of the change of control. |
Pursuant to the amended consulting agreement, the Company made a one-time payment of $100,000 in respect of the $400,000 consulting fee on May 6, 2014, and was obligated to pay the remainder of the consulting fee in monthly payments of $15,000, which payments commenced on June 1, 2014. The amended consulting agreement also provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Riverchase Village facility (which is owned by an entity which is owned and controlled by Mr. Brogdon and that is our VIE) was sold prior to September 1, 2014, then the amount of the unpaid consulting fee would be reduced by (and offset against) the aggregate principal balance owed by Mr. Brogdon to the Company under the promissory note executed by Mr. Brogdon in favor of the Company, with any remaining balance of the consulting fee owed to Mr. Brogdon to be paid in cash at closing. However, because the sale of the Riverchase Village facility was not completed prior to September 1, 2014, the balance of the consulting fee owed to Mr. Brogdon by the Company in the amount of $255,000 was offset against the remaining amount owed by Mr. Brogdon to the Company under the promissory note, thereby reducing the principal amount of the promissory note to $268,663.
The amended consulting agreement has an indefinite term, subject to the termination of the agreement by either party for cause (subject to a cure period) or by Mr. Brogdon without cause
Settlement and Indemnification Agreement. On March 26, 2015, the Company and certain entities controlled by Christopher Brogdon entered into a Settlement and Indemnification Agreement with respect to: (i) certain claims made by the Brogdon entities in connection with management and administrative services provided by the Company to the Brogdon entities under various management agreements; and (ii) certain pending, or threatened, legal proceedings against the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, and Mr. Brogdon and certain entities controlled by him, including the litigation filed in the District Court of Oklahoma County, State of Oklahoma and described in Part I, Item 3, “Legal Proceedings” (collectively, and including any unasserted claims arising from the management agreements, the “Adcare Indemnified Claims”). Pursuant to the Settlement and Indemnification Agreement, the Company agreed to contribute up to $600,000 towards the settlement of the litigation, and Mr.
Brogdon and the Brogdon entities agree to release the Company from any and all claims arising in connection with the management agreements and to indemnify the Company with respect to the AdCare Indemnified Claims.
The litigation was settled pursuant to the Clanton Settlement Agreement as described under Part I, Item 3, “Legal Proceedings.” Boyd P. Gentry, the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Brogdon are parties to such agreement.
Harrah, McLoud and Mecker. On July 26, 2013, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company entered into management agreements with entities controlled by Christopher Brogdon, which entities own the skilled-nursing facilities located in Oklahoma known as Harrah Nursing Center, McLoud Nursing Center and Mecker Nursing Center. Pursuant to the management agreements, the Company subsidiary managed the operations of these facilities. The management agreements had initial terms of five years with automatic renewal for one-year terms thereafter. Pursuant to the management agreements, the Brogdon entities which own the facilities agreed to pay the Company subsidiary a fee equal to 5% of the monthly gross revenues of the facilities. Effective March 1, 2014, the Company terminated the management agreements with respect to Harrah Nursing Center, McLoud Nursing Center and Mecker Nursing Center.
Oklahoma Facilities. Effective August 1, 2011, entities controlled by Christopher Brogdon acquired five skilled nursing facilities located in Oklahoma. In connection with the closing of this acquisition, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company entered into five-year year management agreements with the Brogdon entities pursuant to which the Company subsidiary supervised the management of the facilities for a monthly fee equal to 5% of the monthly gross revenues of the facilities.
In December 2012: (i) the Brogdon entities entered into a $1.0 million senior secured credit agreement with Gemino; and (ii) the Company subsidiary entered into a subordination agreement pursuant to which the Company subsidiary agreed to subordinate its right to payment of all management fees owed to it by the Brogdon entities to such credit agreement with Gemino. However, the Company subsidiary could continue to accept such management fees owed to it under the management agreements, so long as no event of default has occurred under the credit agreement entered into among Gemino and the Brogdon entities. Effective as of March 1, 2014, the Company terminated the management agreements with respect to the facilities. On March 3, 2014, the Company, Mr. Brogdon and the Brogdon entities entered into an agreement to provide for the transition of the management of the facilities from the Company to a third-party.
Golden Years Manor. In January 2012, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Gyman Properties, LLC, to acquire a 141-bed skilled nursing facility located in Lonoke, Arkansas, known as Golden Years Manor, for an aggregate purchase price of $6.5 million. Pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Company deposited approximately $0.3 million into escrow to be held as earnest money. In May 2013, the Company decided not to pursue the acquisition of Golden Years Manor because it determined that the facility no longer met its investment criteria. At the time of such determination, the Company was not entitled to reimbursement of its deposit under the Purchase and Sale Agreement. Subsequently, on May 9, 2012, the Company assigned all of its rights under the Purchase and Sale Agreement to GL Nursing, LLC, an entity controlled by Christopher Brogdon. In connection with such assignment, GL Nursing, LLC agreed to reimburse to the Company the deposit and all of its out-of-pocket costs relating to Golden Years Manor upon the closing of the acquisition, which occurred on May 31, 2012.
Park City Capital. On March 27, 2014, the Company accepted a Subscription Agreement from Park City Capital Offshore Master, Ltd. (“Park City Offshore”), an affiliate of Michael J.

Mr. Fox is a director of Park City Offshore and a director of the Company and a beneficial owner of 5% of the outstanding common stock.

Cantone. On August 21, 2014, Anthony J. Cantone and certain of his affiliates filed with the SEC a Schedule 13G/A reporting beneficial ownership of greater than 5% of the common stock. See Part III, Item 12, “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.” In March 2012, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to Cantone Asset Management LLC in the principle amount of $3,500,000. In April 2012, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to Cantone Asset Management LLC in the principle amount of $1,500,000. In July 2012, the Company and Cantone Asset Management LLC refinanced these two promissory notes in exchange for the issuance by the Company to Cantone Asset Management LLC of a 2012 Note in a principle amount of $5,000,000.
In connection with the issuance of the promissory notes to Cantone Asset Management LLC in March and April of 2012, Cantone Research, Inc. agreed to provide the Company with certain consulting services for a monthly fee if the Company and Cantone Asset Management LLC (or an affiliated entity) did not agree to the terms of an additional financing arrangement pursuant to which it (or affiliated entity) would loan to the Company at least $4,000,000 for a four-year term. In July 2012, the consulting agreement was revised so as to provide for a certain monthly fee payable to Cantone Research, Inc. regardless of whether the Company and Cantone Asset Management LLC agreed to an additional financing arrangement. Furthermore, under the terms of the revised consulting agreement, the Company issued to Cantone Research, Inc. 50,000 shares of common stock and a warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock. The Company paid to Cantone Research, Inc. approximately $50,000 during 2014 pursuant to the consulting agreement.
In July 2012 and March 2011, the Company issued and sold to certain accredited investors an aggregate of $7,500,000 and $4,508,700 in principle amount of 2012 Notes and 2011 Notes, respectively. In connection with the offerings, Cantone Research, Inc. acted as the exclusive agent with respect to the private placement of the notes. The Company paid to Cantone Research, Inc. $42,500 and $60,000 to act as the placement agent pursuant to the July 2012 and March 2011 offerings, respectively.
In October 2013, the Company settled certain alleged claims made by Anthony J. Cantone, Cantone Asset Management LLC and Cantone Research, Inc. with respect to their prior dealings with the Company, including, among other things, the Company’s offering of 2012 Notes. In connection with the settlement, the Company issued to CRI a two−year warrant to purchase 75,000 shares of common stock.
Red Rose Facility. In October 2011, pursuant to the terms of an Assignment of Lease and Landlord’s Consent, Rose Missouri Nursing, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, became the tenant and operator of the Red Rose facility, a 90-bed skilled nursing facility located in Cassville, Missouri.
