General and Professional Liability Insurance and Lawsuits
The senior care industry has experienced significant increases in both the number of personal injury/wrongful death claims and in the severity of awards based upon alleged negligence by skilled nursing facilities and their employees in providing care to residents. The Company has been, and continues to be, subject to claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business, including potential claims related to patient care and treatment. 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. The Company purchases insurance through third party providers that provides coverage for these claims.
There is certain additional litigation incidental to our business, none of which, based upon information available to date, would be material to our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In addition, the long–term care industry is continuously subject to scrutiny by governmental regulators, which could result in litigation or claims related to regulatory compliance matters.
Governmental Regulations
Laws and regulations governing the Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs are complex and subject to interpretation. Management believes that it is following all applicable laws and regulations in all material respects. However, 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 exclusions from the Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs.
Purchase and Sale Agreement
Effective on February 7, 2025, the Company caused three of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries Global Abbeville Property, LLC, Dodge NH, LLC, and ATL/WARR, LLC, each a Georgia limited liability company (each a “Seller”), to execute and deliver a definitive Purchase and Sale Agreement (“PSA”) with Abbeville Propco Holdco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Purchaser”) and also caused a fourth subsidiary, Providence HR, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company, to execute and deliver an additional Purchase and Sale Agreement (also a “Seller”) with the Purchaser. Pursuant to both PSAs each Seller agreed to sell substantially all of the real and personal property owned by each, namely the skilled nursing facilities located at (i) 206 Main Street East, Abbeville, Georgia, 31001, upon which is located that certain 101-bed skilled nursing facility commonly known as “Glen Eagle Healthcare & Rehab” (the “Glen Eagle Facility”), (ii) 556 Chester Highway, Eastman, Georgia, 31023, upon which is located that certain 100-bed skilled nursing facility commonly known as “Eastman Healthcare & Rehab” (the “Eastman Facility”), (iii) 60 Providence Street, Sparta, Georgia, 31087, upon which is located that certain 71-bed skilled nursing facility commonly known as “Providence of Sparta Health and Rehabilitation” (the “Sparta Facility”), and (iv) 813 Atlanta Highway, Warrenton, Georgia, 30828, upon which is located that certain 110-bed skilled nursing facility commonly known as “Warrenton Health and Rehabilitation” (the “Warrenton Facility” and together with the Eastman Facility, Glen Eagle Facility, and Sparta Facility, the “Facilities”).
The Sparta Facility was covered under a separate PSA to reflect the Purchaser’s desire and intent to assume the HUD loan secured by the Sparta Facility. The purchase price to be paid by Purchaser for the four (4) Facilities under the two PSAs is an aggregate of $27.0 million, subject to certain prorations, holdbacks and adjustments customary in transactions of this nature. Consummation of the PSAs are contingent upon numerous conditions, including, without limitation, satisfactory completion of due diligence and other conditions customary in transaction of this nature. There can be no assurance that the PSAs will be consummated.
Operations Transfer Agreements
The Facilities are operated by separate, wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, namely Global Abbeville, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company, Global Eastman, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company, Selectis Sparta, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company, and Selectis Warrenton, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (collectively, the “Existing Operators”). Concurrently with the execution of the PSA, the Company caused three of the Existing Operators to execute Operations Transfer Agreement (“OTA”) with a new entity affiliated with the Purchaser, Abbeville Opco Holdco LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Abbeville New Operator”) and also cause the Existing Operator Selectis Sparta, LLC to execute an OTA with Sparta Opco Holdcso LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sparta New Operator”). If consummated, of which there can be no assurance, the OTA will govern the transfer of the skilled nursing operations from the Existing Operators to the New Operators. Consummation of the OTA’s is contingent upon the consummation of the PSAs as well as other conditions customary in transaction of this nature.
Escrow Agreement
In connection with the PSA, the Company’s three wholly-owned subsidiaries Global Abbeville Property, LLC, Dodge NH, LLC, and ATL/WARR, LLC, each a Georgia limited liability company (each a “Seller”), Abbeville Propco Holdco LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (individually and collectively, “Purchaser”), and Landmark Abstract Agency, LLC (the “Escrow Agent”), entered into an Escrow Agreement dated February 7, 2025 whereby the Purchaser delivered to Escrow Agent an initial deposit of $400,000 (the “Initial Deposit”). The Initial Deposit and any other sums deposited in escrow by Purchaser under the PSA, will be held by the Escrow Agent, together with any interest and dividends earned thereon, if any (the “Escrow Fund”).
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, $400,000 of the Initial Deposit was deemed non-refundable, therefore the Company deferred the asset and recognized $400,000 to other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
