Equity Method Investment Equity Method Investment
Concurrently with the acquisition of a continuing care retirement community (“CCRC”) in January 2020 from LCS-Westminster Partnership III, LLP (“Timber Ridge CCRC”), we invested $0.9 million in the operating company, Timber Ridge OpCo, LLC (“Timber Ridge OpCo”), which represented a 25.0% equity interest. This investment is held by our TRS to be compliant with the provisions of the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007 (“RIDEA”). As part of our initial investment, we provided Timber Ridge OpCo with a revolving credit facility that has a maximum borrowing capacity of $5.0 million. As of June 30, 2026, no amounts have been drawn on this revolving credit facility.

We account for our investment in Timber Ridge OpCo under the equity method of accounting and decrease the carrying value of our investment for operating losses of the entity and distributions made to us for cumulative amounts up to and including our basis plus any guaranteed or implied commitments to fund operations. Our guaranteed and implied commitments are currently limited to the $5.0 million revolving credit facility and a $2.5 million lease incentive distribution received in February 2023. As of both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we have recognized our share of Timber Ridge OpCo’s operating losses in excess of our initial investment. These cumulative losses of $5.0 million in excess of our original basis and the $2.5 million lease incentive distribution received are included in accounts payable and other liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, excess unrecognized equity method losses for this investment were $1.0 million and $1.2 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2026, our cumulative unrecognized losses for this investment were $19.0 million. We did not recognize any gains from equity method investment during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized gains from equity method investment of $1.5 million and $1.9 million, respectively, related to cash distributions received from this investment.

The Timber Ridge OpCo property is subject to early resident mortgages secured by a Deed of Trust and Indenture of Trust (the “Deed and Indenture”). As part of our acquisition, NHI-LCS JV I, LLC (“Timber Ridge PropCo”) acquired the Timber Ridge CCRC property and a subordination agreement was entered into pursuant to which the trustee acknowledged and confirmed that the security interests created under the Deed and Indenture were subordinate to any security interests granted in connection with the $81.0 million loan made by us to Timber Ridge PropCo, which is eliminated in our condensed consolidated financial statements. In addition, under the terms of the resident loan assumption agreements, during the term of the seven-year lease to Timber Ridge OpCo, which includes two five-year extension options, Timber Ridge OpCo is required to indemnify Timber Ridge PropCo for any repayment by Timber Ridge PropCo of these early resident mortgage liabilities under the guarantee. As a result of the subordination agreement and the resident loan assumption agreements, we have not recorded any liabilities as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, the balance secured by the Deed and Indenture was $7.6 million.
