Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments, Contingencies and Uncertainties

In the normal course of business, we enter into a variety of commitments, typically consisting of funding revolving credit arrangements, construction and mezzanine loans to our operators to conduct expansions and acquisitions for their own account, and commitments for the funding of construction for expansion or renovation to our existing properties under lease. In our leasing operations, we offer to our tenants and to sellers of newly acquired properties a variety of inducements that originate contractually as contingencies but which may become commitments upon the satisfaction of the contingent event. Contingent payments earned are included in the respective lease bases when funded.

As of March 31, 2025, we had working capital, mortgage, construction, revolving credit and mezzanine loan commitments to eight operators or borrowers for an aggregate of $151.3 million, of which we had funded $100.7 million toward these commitments. Loan funded amounts do not reflect the effects of discounts or commitment fees.

As of March 31, 2025, we had $23.4 million of development commitments for renovation of six properties, of which we had funded $5.9 million toward these commitments.

As of March 31, 2025, we had an aggregate of $16.9 million in remaining contingent lease inducement commitments in four lease agreements which are generally based on the performance of facility operations and may or may not be met by the tenant.

The credit loss liability for unfunded loan commitments is estimated using the same methodology as used for our funded mortgage and other notes receivable based on the estimated amount that we expect to fund. We applied the same market adjustments as discussed in Note 4.

The liability for expected credit losses on our unfunded loan commitments reflected in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 is presented in the following table for the three months ended March 31, 2025 ($ in thousands):


Balance at January 1, 2025	$	147
Provision for expected credit losses	(75)
Balance at March 31, 2025	$	72

Litigation

Our facilities are subject to claims and suits in the ordinary course of business. Such claims may include, among other things, professional liability and general liability claims, as well as regulatory proceedings related to our SHOP segment. Our managers, tenants and borrowers have indemnified, and are obligated to continue to indemnify, us against all liabilities arising from the

operation of the facilities, and are further obligated to indemnify us against environmental or title problems affecting the real estate underlying such facilities. While there may be lawsuits pending against us and certain of the owners and/or lessees of the facilities, management believes that the ultimate resolution of all such pending proceedings will have no material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
