STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “10-Q”) contain “forward-looking” information as that term is defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any statements that do not relate to historical or current facts or matters are forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include all statements regarding our expected future financial position, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity, financing plans, business strategy, tenants, the expected amounts and timing of dividends and other distributions, projected expenses and capital expenditures, competitive position, growth opportunities, potential investments, plans and objectives for future operations, and compliance with and changes in governmental regulations. You can identify some of the forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “should,” “may” and other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.
Our actual results may differ materially from those projected or contemplated by our forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, among others, the following:
our dependence on the operating success of our tenants;
operational risks with respect to our Senior Housing - Managed communities (as defined below);
the effect of our tenants declaring bankruptcy or becoming insolvent;
our ability to find replacement tenants and the impact of unforeseen costs in acquiring new properties;
the impact of litigation and rising insurance costs on the business of our tenants;
our ability to implement the previously announced rent repositioning program for certain of our tenants who were legacy tenants of Care Capital Properties, Inc. (“CCP”) on the timing or terms we have previously disclosed;
our ability to dispose of facilities currently leased to Genesis Healthcare, Inc. (“Genesis”) on the timing or terms we have previously disclosed;
the possibility that Sabra may not acquire the remaining majority interest in the Enlivant Joint Venture (as defined below);
risks associated with our investments in joint ventures;
changes in healthcare regulation and political or economic conditions;
the impact of required regulatory approvals of transfers of healthcare properties;
competitive conditions in our industry;
our concentration in the healthcare property sector, particularly in skilled nursing/transitional care facilities and senior housing communities, which makes our profitability more vulnerable to a downturn in a specific sector than if we were investing in multiple industries;
the significant amount of and our ability to service our indebtedness;
covenants in our debt agreements that may restrict our ability to pay dividends, make investments, incur additional indebtedness and refinance indebtedness on favorable terms;
increases in market interest rates;
our ability to raise capital through equity and debt financings;
changes in foreign currency exchange rates;
the relatively illiquid nature of real estate investments;
the loss of key management personnel or other employees;
uninsured or underinsured losses affecting our properties and the possibility of environmental compliance costs and liabilities;
the impact of a failure or security breach of information technology in our operations;
our ability to maintain our status as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”);
changes in tax laws and regulations affecting REITs (including the potential effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act);
compliance with REIT requirements and certain tax and tax regulatory matters related to our status as a REIT; and
the ownership limits and anti-takeover defenses in our governing documents and under Maryland law, which may restrict change of control or business combination opportunities.
We urge you to carefully consider these risks and review the additional disclosures we make concerning risks and other factors that may materially affect the outcome of our forward-looking statements and our future business and operating results, including those made in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 (our “2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K”), as such risk factors may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including subsequent Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. We caution you that any forward-looking statements made in this

10-Q are not guarantees of future performance, events or results, and you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. We do not intend, and we undertake no obligation, to update any forward-looking information to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, unless required by law to do so.

SABRA HEALTH CARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
 
1.     BUSINESS
Overview
Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. (“Sabra” or the “Company”) was incorporated on May 10, 2010 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Sun Healthcare Group, Inc. (“Sun”) and commenced operations on November 15, 2010 following Sabra's separation from Sun. Sabra elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) with the filing of its U.S. federal income tax return for the taxable year beginning January 1, 2011. Sabra believes that it has been organized and operated, and it intends to continue to operate, in a manner to qualify as a REIT. Sabra’s primary business consists of acquiring, financing and owning real estate property to be leased to third-party tenants in the healthcare sector. Sabra primarily generates revenues by leasing properties to tenants and operators throughout the United States and Canada. Sabra owns substantially all of its assets and properties and conducts its operations through Sabra Health Care Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), of which Sabra is the sole general partner and Sabra’s wholly owned subsidiaries are currently the only limited partners, or by subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. The Company’s investment portfolio is primarily comprised of skilled nursing/transitional care facilities, senior housing communities and specialty hospitals and other facilities, in each case leased to third-party operators; senior housing communities operated by third-party property managers pursuant to property management agreements (“Senior Housing - Managed”); investments in loans receivable; preferred equity investments; and an investment in an unconsolidated joint venture.
On May 7, 2017, the Company, the Operating Partnership, PR Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Care Capital Properties, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CCP”), and Care Capital Properties, L.P. (“CCPLP”), a Delaware limited partnership and wholly owned subsidiary of CCP, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, on August 17, 2017, CCP merged with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub continuing as the surviving corporation (the “CCP Merger”), following which Merger Sub merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving entity (the “Subsequent Merger”), and, simultaneous with the Subsequent Merger, CCPLP merged with and into the Operating Partnership, with the Operating Partnership continuing as the surviving entity.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, as of the effective time of the CCP Merger, each share of CCP common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the CCP Merger (other than shares of CCP common stock owned directly by CCP, the Company or their respective subsidiaries, in each case not held on behalf of third parties) was converted into the right to receive 1.123 newly issued shares of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share, plus cash in lieu of any fractional shares. See Note 3, “CCP Merger and Recent Real Estate Acquisitions” for additional information regarding the CCP Merger.
The acquisition of CCP has been reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements since the effective date of the CCP Merger.

2.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sabra and its wholly owned subsidiaries as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 and for the periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for financial statements. In the opinion of management, the financial statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for such periods. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018. For further information, refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the

year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC.
GAAP requires the Company to identify entities for which control is achieved through voting rights or other means and to determine which business enterprise is the primary beneficiary of variable interest entities (“VIEs”). A VIE is broadly defined as an entity with one or more of the following characteristics: (a) the total equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance the entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support; (b) as a group, the holders of the equity investment at risk lack (i) the ability to make decisions about the entity’s activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; or (c) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportional to their economic interests, and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights. If the Company were determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE, the Company would consolidate investments in the VIE. The Company may change its original assessment of a VIE due to events such as modifications of contractual arrangements that affect the characteristics or adequacy of the entity’s equity investments at risk and the disposal of all or a portion of an interest held by the primary beneficiary.
The Company identifies the primary beneficiary of a VIE as the enterprise that has both: (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance; and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could be significant to the entity. The Company performs this analysis on an ongoing basis.
As of June 30, 2018, the Company determined it was the primary beneficiary of two variable interest entities—one exchange accommodation titleholder variable interest entity and a joint venture variable interest entity owning one skilled nursing/transitional care facility—and has consolidated the operations of these entities in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2018, the Company determined that operations of these entities were not material to the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
As it relates to investments in loans, in addition to the Company’s assessment of VIEs and whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of those VIEs, the Company evaluates the loan terms and other pertinent facts to determine whether the loan investment should be accounted for as a loan or as a real estate joint venture. If an investment has the characteristics of a real estate joint venture, including if the Company participates in the majority of the borrower’s expected residual profit, the Company would account for the investment as an investment in a real estate joint venture and not as a loan investment. Expected residual profit is defined as the amount of profit, whether called interest or another name, such as an equity kicker, above a reasonable amount of interest and fees expected to be earned by a lender. At June 30, 2018, none of the Company’s investments in loans are accounted for as real estate joint ventures.
As it relates to investments in joint ventures, the Company assesses any limited partners’ rights and their impact on the presumption of control of the limited partnership by any single partner. The Company also applies this guidance to managing member interests in limited liability companies. The Company reassesses its determination of which entity controls the joint venture if: there is a change to the terms or in the exercisability of the rights of any partners or members, the sole general partner or managing member increases or decreases its ownership interests, or there is an increase or decrease in the number of outstanding ownership interests. As of June 30, 2018, the Company’s determination of which entity controls its investments in joint ventures has not changed as a result of any reassessment.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have not changed the results of operations of prior periods. As a result, certain reclassifications were made to the condensed consolidated statements of income and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Table of Contents

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture
The Company reports investments in unconsolidated entities over whose operating and financial policies it has the ability to exercise significant influence under the equity method of accounting. Under this method of accounting, the Company’s share of the investee’s earnings or losses is included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income. The initial carrying value of the investment is based on the amount paid to purchase the joint venture interest. Differences between the Company’s cost basis and the basis reflected at the joint venture level are generally amortized over the lives of the related assets and liabilities, and such amortization is included in the Company’s share of earnings of the joint venture.
The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of its equity method investments may not be recoverable or realized. When indicators of potential impairment are identified, the Company evaluates its equity method investments for impairment based on a comparison of the fair value of the investment to its carrying value. The fair value is estimated based on discounted cash flows that include all estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period and any estimated debt premiums or discounts. If, based on this analysis, the Company does not believe that it will be able to recover the carrying value of its equity method investment, the Company would record an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of its equity method investment.
On January 2, 2018, the Company completed its transaction with affiliates of Enlivant and TPG Real Estate, the real estate platform of TPG, and contributed $352.7 million, before closing costs, to acquire a 49% equity interest in an entity that owns 172 senior housing communities managed by Enlivant (the “Enlivant Joint Venture”). At closing, the Enlivant Joint Venture had outstanding indebtedness of $791.3 million and net working capital of $22.9 million, and the Company’s investment in the Enlivant Joint Venture implied an aggregate portfolio value of $1.49 billion. The joint venture agreement includes an option for the Company to acquire the remainder of the outstanding equity interests in the Enlivant Joint Venture by January 2, 2021 and grants the Company the right of first offer if the Company’s partner in the Enlivant Joint Venture desires to transfer its equity interest (which it may do commencing on January 2, 2020). In addition, Sabra has the right to designate three directors on the seven member board of directors of the Enlivant Joint Venture and has other customary minority rights. As of June 30, 2018, the book value of the Company’s investment in the Enlivant Joint Venture was $349.0 million.
Net Investment in Direct Financing Lease
As of June 30, 2018, the Company had a $23.2 million net investment in one skilled nursing/transitional care facility leased to an operator under a direct financing lease, as the tenant is obligated to purchase the property at the end of the lease term. The net investment in direct financing lease is recorded in accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, net on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and represents the total undiscounted rental payments, plus the estimated unguaranteed residual value, less the unearned lease income. Unearned lease income represents the excess of the minimum lease payments and residual value over the cost of the investment. Unearned lease income is deferred and amortized to income over the lease term to provide a constant yield when collectability of the lease payments is reasonably assured. Income from the Company’s net investment in direct financing lease was $0.6 million and $1.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and is reflected in interest and other income on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. Future minimum lease payments contractually due under the direct financing lease at June 30, 2018, were as follows: $1.1 million for the remainder of 2018; $2.2 million for 2019; $2.3 million for 2020; and $2.1 million for 2021.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Update
Adopted
Between May 2014 and February 2017, the FASB issued four Accounting Standards Updates (each, an “ASU”) changing the requirements for recognizing and reporting revenue (together, herein referred to as the “Revenue ASUs”): (i) ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), (ii) ASU No. 2016-08, Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) (“ASU 2016-08”), (iii) ASU No. 2016-12, Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients (“ASU 2016-12”) and (iv) ASU No. 2017-05, Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets (“ASU 2017-05”). ASU 2014-09 provides guidance for revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2016-08 is intended to improve the operability and understandability of the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. ASU 2016-12 provides practical expedients and improvements on the previously narrow scope of ASU 2014-09. The Revenue ASUs became effective for the Company on January 1, 2018 with the Company electing to use the modified retrospective approach for its adoption. Further, the Company elected to reassess only contracts that were not completed as of the adoption date. The adoption of these ASUs did not have a material impact to beginning retained earnings as of January 1, 2018.

Table of Contents

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 provides specific guidance clarifying how certain cash receipts and payments should be classified. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (“ASU 2016-18”). ASU 2016-18 requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The Company adopted ASU 2016-15 and ASU 2016-18 on January 1, 2018. The full retrospective approach of adoption is required for both ASUs and, accordingly, certain line items in the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The following table illustrates changes in the Company’s cash flows as reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and as previously reported prior to the adoption (in thousands):

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (“ASU 2017-12”). ASU 2017-12 is intended to improve the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements and to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance in current GAAP. ASU 2017-12 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2017-12 effective beginning January 1, 2018. ASU 2017-12 requires a modified retrospective transition method in which the Company recognized the cumulative effect of the change on the opening balance of each affected component of equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of the date of adoption, which resulted in a decrease to cumulative distributions in excess of net income and an increase to accumulated other comprehensive income of $0.8 million.
Issued but Not Yet Adopted
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 supersedes guidance related to accounting for leases. ASU 2016-02 updates guidance around the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. The objective of ASU 2016-02 is to establish the principles that lessees and lessors shall apply to report useful information to users of financial statements about the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from a lease. ASU 2016-02 does not fundamentally change lessor accounting; however, some changes have been made to lessor accounting to conform and align that guidance with the lessee guidance and other areas within GAAP. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Under ASU 2016-02, entities currently are required to adopt the new lease requirements using a modified retrospective transition method whereby an entity initially applies the new lease requirements (subject to specific transition requirements and optional practical expedients) at the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02, the Company will recognize its operating leases for which it is the lessee, mainly corporate office leases and ground leases, on its consolidated balance sheets. Further, as a result of adoption, the Company may be required to increase its revenue and expense for the amount of real estate taxes and insurance paid by its tenants under certain leasing arrangements with no net impact to net income.
In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements (“ASU 2018-11”) that allows lessors to elect, as a practical expedient, not to separate lease and nonlease components (such as services rendered) in a contract for the purpose of revenue recognition and disclosure. The practical expedient can only be applied to leasing arrangements for which (i) the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the lease and nonlease components and (ii) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. Under this practical expedient, contracts that are predominantly lease-based would be accounted for under Topic 842, and contracts that are predominantly service-based would be accounted for under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Further, ASU 2018-11 also provides for an additional (and optional) transition method to adopt the new lease requirements by allowing entities to initially apply the requirements by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company plans to elect this practical expedient and apply the optional transition method for its operating leases for which the Company is the lessee, using the cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance sheet as of January 1, 2019. The Company is still evaluating the full impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019 to its consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 requires that a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 are an improvement because they eliminate the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, reflect an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses. Previously, when credit losses were measured under GAAP, an entity generally only considered past events and current conditions in measuring the incurred loss. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. An entity will apply the amendments in this update through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (that is, a modified-retrospective approach). The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements when adopted.

3.     CCP MERGER AND RECENT REAL ESTATE ACQUISITIONS
CCP Merger
On August 17, 2017, the Company completed the CCP Merger. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each share of CCP common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the CCP Merger (other than any shares owned directly by CCP, the Company or their respective subsidiaries, in each case not held on behalf of third parties) was converted into the right to receive 1.123 newly issued shares of Company common stock, resulting in the issuance of approximately 94.0 million shares of Company common stock at the effective time of the CCP Merger. As a result of the CCP Merger, the Company acquired 330 properties (consisting of 296 skilled nursing/transitional care facilities, 13 senior housing communities and 21 specialty hospitals and other facilities), one skilled nursing/transitional care facility leased to an operator under a direct financing lease (see Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Net Investment in Direct Financing Lease”), 18 investments in loans receivable (see Note 6, “Loans Receivable and Other Investments”) and one specialty valuation firm that was subsequently sold in March 2018. Sabra also assumed certain outstanding equity awards and other debt and liabilities of CCP (see Note 7, “Debt”). Based on the closing price of Sabra’s common stock on August 16, 2017, the Company estimates the fair value of the consideration exchanged or assumed to be approximately $2.1 billion.
The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation for the CCP Merger based on the Company’s valuation, including estimates and assumptions of the acquisition date fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed on August 17, 2017 (in thousands):

Operating Leases
As of June 30, 2018, the substantial majority of the Company’s real estate properties (excluding 24 Senior Housing - Managed communities) were leased under triple-net operating leases with expirations ranging from less than one year to 15 years. As of June 30, 2018, the leases had a weighted-average remaining term of nine years. The leases include provisions to extend the lease terms and other negotiated terms and conditions. The Company, through its subsidiaries, retains substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the real estate assets leased to the tenants. The Company may receive additional security under these operating leases in the form of letters of credit and security deposits from the lessee or guarantees from the parent of the lessee. Security deposits received in cash related to tenant leases are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and totaled $17.9 million and $20.3 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and letters of credit deposited with the Company totaled approximately $90 million and $96 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. In addition, our tenants have deposited with the Company $28.0 million and $28.3 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, for future real estate taxes, insurance expenditures and tenant improvements related to our properties and their operations.
As of June 30, 2018, the Company had a $1.1 million reserve for unpaid cash rental income and a $3.2 million reserve associated with accumulated straight-line rental income. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had a $3.2 million reserve for unpaid cash rental income and a $12.4 million reserve associated with accumulated straight-line rental income.
The Company has entered into memoranda of understanding with Genesis to market for sale up to all of its remaining Genesis facilities and to restructure its lease agreements with Genesis to increase the marketability of these facilities to potential buyers. Effective January 1, 2018, the annual base rent payable under the Genesis leases was reduced by $19.0 million pursuant to a lease restructuring agreement. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company completed the sale of 27 facilities leased to Genesis and expects to complete the sale of 19 of its remaining 27 Genesis facilities during the remainder of 2018 and to retain eight facilities, although it cannot provide assurance that the sales will be completed in that timeframe, if at all.
The Company monitors the creditworthiness of its tenants by reviewing credit ratings (if available) and evaluating the ability of the tenants to meet their lease obligations to the Company based on the tenants’ financial performance, including the evaluation of any parent guarantees (or the guarantees of other related parties) of tenant lease obligations. As formal credit ratings may not be available for most of the Company’s tenants, the primary basis for the Company’s evaluation of the credit quality of its tenants (and more specifically the tenant’s ability to pay their rent obligations to the Company) is the tenant’s lease coverage ratio or the parent’s fixed charge coverage ratio for those entities with a parent guarantee. These coverage ratios include earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and rent (“EBITDAR”) to rent and earnings before interest,

15

Table of Contents

taxes, depreciation, amortization, rent and management fees (“EBITDARM”) to rent at the lease level and consolidated EBITDAR to total fixed charges at the parent guarantor level when such a guarantee exists. The Company obtains various financial and operational information from its tenants each month and reviews this information in conjunction with the above-described coverage metrics to identify financial and operational trends, evaluate the impact of the industry’s operational and financial environment (including the impact of government reimbursement), and evaluate the management of the tenant’s operations. These metrics help the Company identify potential areas of concern relative to its tenants’ credit quality and ultimately the tenant’s ability to generate sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations, including its obligation to continue to pay the rent due to the Company.
For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, no tenant relationship represented 10% or more of the Company’s total revenues.
As of June 30, 2018, the future minimum rental payments from the Company’s properties held for investment under non-cancelable operating leases were as follows (in thousands):

5.    ASSET HELD FOR SALE AND DISPOSITIONS
Asset Held for Sale
As of June 30, 2018, the Company determined that one skilled nursing/transitional care facility, with a net book value of $6.0 million, met the criteria to be classified as held for sale. The net book value is included in accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The facility was sold on July 2, 2018 for a gross sales price of $7.0 million.
2018 Dispositions
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company completed the sale of 33 skilled nursing/transitional care facilities and four senior housing communities for aggregate consideration, net of closing costs, of $278.3 million. The net carrying value of the assets and liabilities of these facilities was $135.8 million, which resulted in an aggregate $142.5 million net gain on sale. The Company also recognized $0.1 million of additional selling expenses for sales completed in 2017.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized a $1.4 million real estate impairment, of which $0.5 million related to one senior housing community sold during the period.
Excluding the net gain on sale and real estate impairment, the Company recognized $11.6 million and $15.4 million of net income during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, from these facilities. The sale of these facilities does not represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, and therefore the results of operations attributable to these facilities have remained in continuing operations.
2017 Disposition
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company completed the sale of one skilled nursing/transitional care facility for consideration, net of closing costs, of $6.1 million. The net carrying value of the assets and liabilities of this facility was $2.1 million, which resulted in a $4.0 million net gain on sale.
Excluding the net gain on sale, the Company recognized $0.1 million of net income during the six months ended June 30, 2017 from this facility. The sale of this facility does not represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, and therefore the results of operations attributable to this facility have remained in continuing operations.

The 2021 Notes and the 2023 Notes were issued by the Operating Partnership and Sabra Capital Corporation, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company (the “Issuers”). The 2021 Notes accrue interest at a rate of 5.5% per annum payable semiannually on February 1 and August 1 of each year, and the 2023 Notes accrue interest at a rate of 5.375% per annum payable semiannually on June 1 and December 1 of each year.

Interest is payable semiannually on February 15 and August 15 of each year for the 2026 Notes and on May 17 and November 17 of each year for the 2027 Notes.
The obligations under the 2021 Notes, 2023 Notes and 2027 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis, by Sabra and certain subsidiaries of Sabra; provided, however, that such guarantees are subject to release under certain customary circumstances. The obligations under the 2026 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on an unsecured basis, by Sabra; provided, however, that such guarantee is subject to release under certain customary circumstances. See Note 12, “Summarized Condensed Consolidating Information” for additional information

concerning the circumstances pursuant to which the guarantors will be automatically and unconditionally released from their obligations under the guarantees.
The indentures and agreements (the “Senior Notes Indentures”) governing the 2021 Notes, 2023 Notes, 2026 Notes and 2027 Notes (collectively, the “Senior Notes”) include customary events of default and require the Company to comply with specified restrictive covenants. As of June 30, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all applicable financial covenants under the Senior Notes Indentures.
Credit Facility
Effective on August 17, 2017, the Operating Partnership and Sabra Canadian Holdings, LLC (together, the “Borrowers”), Sabra and the other parties thereto entered into a fourth amended and restated unsecured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility amends and restates the prior credit facility entered into by the Borrowers in January 2016 (the “Prior Credit Facility”). The Company recognized a $0.6 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to write-offs of deferred financing costs in connection with amending and restating the Prior Credit Facility.
The Credit Facility includes a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), $1.1 billion in U.S. dollar term loans and a CAD $125.0 million Canadian dollar term loan (collectively, the “Term Loans”). Further, up to $175.0 million of the Revolving Credit Facility may be used for borrowings in certain foreign currencies. The Credit Facility also contains an accordion feature that can increase the total available borrowings to $2.5 billion, subject to terms and conditions.
The Revolving Credit Facility has a maturity date of August 17, 2021, and includes two six-month extension options. $200.0 million of the U.S. dollar Term Loans has a maturity date of August 17, 2020, and the other Term Loans have a maturity date of August 17, 2022.
As of June 30, 2018, there was $676.0 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility and $324.0 million available for borrowing.
Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate equal to an applicable interest margin plus, at the Operating Partnership’s option, either (a) LIBOR or (b) a base rate determined as the greater of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, (ii) the prime rate, and (iii) one-month LIBOR plus 1.0% (the “Base Rate”). On August 17, 2017, Sabra’s ratings met the Investment Grade Ratings Criteria (as defined in the credit agreement), and Sabra elected to use the ratings-based applicable interest margin for borrowings which will vary based on the Debt Ratings, as defined in the credit agreement, and will range from 0.875% to 1.65% per annum for LIBOR based borrowings and 0.00% to 0.65% per annum for borrowings at the Base Rate. As of June 30, 2018, the interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facility was 3.34%. In addition, the Operating Partnership pays a facility fee ranging between 0.125% and 0.300% per annum based on the aggregate amount of commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility regardless of amounts outstanding thereunder.
The U.S. dollar Term Loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate equal to an applicable interest margin plus, at the Operating Partnership’s option, either (a) LIBOR or (b) the Base Rate. The ratings-based applicable interest margin for borrowings will vary based on the Debt Ratings, as defined in the credit agreement, and will range from 0.90% to 1.90% per annum for LIBOR based borrowings and 0.00% to 0.90% per annum for borrowings at the Base Rate. The Canadian dollar Term Loan bears interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate equal to the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (“CDOR”) plus an interest margin that will range from 0.90% to 1.90% depending on the Debt Ratings.
On June 10, 2015, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to fix the CDOR portion of the interest rate for CAD $90.0 million of its Canadian dollar Term Loan at 1.59%. In addition, CAD $90.0 million of the Canadian dollar Term Loan was designated as a net investment hedge. On August 10, 2016, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements to fix the LIBOR portion of the interest rate for $245.0 million of its U.S. dollar Term Loans at 0.90% and one interest rate swap agreement to fix the CDOR portion on CAD $35.0 million of its Canadian dollar Term Loan at 0.93%. See Note 8, “Derivative and Hedging Instruments” for further information.
As a result of the CCP Merger (see Note 3, “CCP Merger and Recent Real Estate Acquisitions”), the Company assumed eight interest rate swap agreements that fix the LIBOR portion of the interest rate for $600 million of the Company’s U.S. dollar Term Loans at a weighted average rate of 1.31%. See Note 8, “Derivative and Hedging Instruments” for further information.
The obligations of the Borrowers under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by Sabra and certain subsidiaries of Sabra.
The Credit Facility contains customary covenants that include restrictions or limitations on the ability to make acquisitions and other investments, pay dividends, incur additional indebtedness, engage in non-healthcare related business activities, enter into transactions with affiliates and sell or otherwise transfer certain assets as well as customary events of default. The Credit Facility also requires Sabra, through the Operating Partnership, to comply with specified financial

covenants, which include a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a minimum tangible net worth requirement. As of June 30, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all applicable financial covenants under the Credit Facility.

8.    DERIVATIVE AND HEDGING INSTRUMENTS
The Company is exposed to various market risks, including the potential loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s investments and borrowings.
Certain of the Company’s foreign operations expose the Company to fluctuations of foreign interest rates and exchange rates. These fluctuations may impact the value in the Company’s functional currency, the U.S. dollar, of the Company’s investment in foreign operations, the cash receipts and payments related to these foreign operations and payments of interest and principal under Canadian dollar denominated debt. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to protect the value of its foreign investments and fix a portion of the interest payments for certain debt obligations. The Company does not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes.
Cash Flow Hedges
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Approximately $6.6 million of gains, which are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, as of June 30, 2018, are expected to be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months.

Net Investment Hedges
