Investment in Consolidated VIE
The Company has a joint venture with affiliates of Palatine Capital Partners (“Palatine”). Prior to March 31, 2026, it included four communities owned by subsidiaries of Palatine under two joint ventures.
On March 31, 2026, the Company purchased the noncontrolling interest from Palatine of one of its joint ventures for a purchase price of $2.1 million and assumed the mortgage of $1.7 million on the property.
The Company is a 51% owner in the remaining Palatine joint venture. The noncontrolling interest of the Palatine JV is reported on the noncontrolling interest line items in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Investment in Stone Unconsolidated Entity
The Company has a joint venture with KZ Stone Investor LLC (the “Stone JV”) which owns four communities in the Midwest. KZ Stone Investor LLC is the controlling managing member of the Stone JV and owned 67.29% of the entity as of March 31, 2026. Sonida owned a 32.71% noncontrolling interest in the Stone JV as of March 31, 2026. Sonida operates the four communities for a management fee based on the gross revenues of the applicable communities, as well as an incentive management fee based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, rent, and management fees, and other customary terms and conditions.
The Company has evaluated its investment in the Stone JV under ASC 810 and determined that it does not have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The Company's interests in the VIE are, therefore, accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The carrying amount of the Company's investment in the unconsolidated venture and maximum exposure to loss as a result of the Company’s ownership interest in the Stone JV was $8.6 million as of March 31, 2026, which is included in investment in unconsolidated entity on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.
The Company evaluates the realization of its investment in unconsolidated entities accounted for using the equity method if circumstances indicate the Company's investment is other than temporarily impaired. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, there were no impairments with respect to the Company’s investment in the Stone JV.
Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale
As of March 31, 2026, the Company classified one of its communities as held for sale in its condensed consolidated balance sheets in accordance with ASC 360, following management’s decision to divest the property and actively market it for sale.
The reclassification of the property’s assets and liabilities held-for-sale status represents a presentation change within the balance sheet, rather than a new investing or financing transaction. The community did not meet the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation under ASC 205-20, as the sale does not represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. During April 2026, the Company entered into a non-binding asset purchase agreement to dispose of the community.
