Item 2.06
Material Impairments.
On February 9, 2016, a subsidiary of Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. (“Sabra”) and Forest Park Medical Center at Frisco, LLC (the “Frisco Operator”) entered into separate agreements (each, an “Agreement”) to sell their respective interests in the Forest Park Medical Center - Frisco hospital (the “Frisco Hospital”) to Columbia Medical Center of Plano Subsidiary, L.P., a subsidiary of HCA Holdings, Inc. (“HCA”) for a total cash purchase price of $96.25 million, less the assumption of certain capital lease obligations of approximately $7.3 million. The sales are subject to certain closing conditions, including bankruptcy court and other regulatory approvals.
As a result of entering into its Agreement, Sabra’s management has concluded that Sabra will recognize a loss of $30.0 million to $35.0 million on its investments in the Frisco Hospital and the debtor-in-possession loan it made to Frisco Operator, before consideration of the approximately $21.3 million in guarantees from the owners of the Frisco Operator. If the sales close on or prior to March 31, 2016, Sabra will realize the loss during the quarter ending March 31, 2016. If the sales have not closed by March 31, 2016, Sabra expects to record a non-cash impairment charge of $30.0 million to $35.0 million related to the sale of the Frisco Hospital during the quarter ending March 31, 2016.
