2017 Activity

In March 2017, we provided secured debt financing to a subsidiary of Ardent to facilitate Ardent’s acquisition of LHP Hospital Group, Inc., which included a $700.0 million term loan and a $60.0 million revolving line of credit feature (of which $27.5 million was outstanding at June 30, 2017). The LIBOR-based debt financing has a five-year term with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 9.0% as of June 30, 2017 and is guaranteed by Ardent’s parent company.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we received $13.7 million for the partial prepayment of secured and unsecured loans receivable and $6.0 million for the full repayment of one secured loan receivable that was due to mature on July 5, 2017.
