What to make of the 2021 senior care M&A market? Amid stagnant census, rising labor costs and media glare, average skilled nursing facility values went up last year, according to our in-house statistics. Meanwhile, seniors housing values fell slightly and remain well off pre-pandemic levels. But there has to be more behind these numbers. What factor does building age play in pricing, or location, trailing occupancy? What did buyers care about in 2021, and make them push their bids up? Or down?
We’ll cover these topics in our annual Senior Care Acquisition Report, to be published later this month, but for those of you who want a preview of our 2021 M&A statistics, plus expertise from our panel of dealmakers, then please join us this Thursday at 1pm ET for our webinar: “Just Released M&A Stats: Where Have Values Settled?” In it, we will also discuss how stabilized facilities were viewed and valued by buyers, versus non-stabilized, the impact of capital on M&A, and what to expect for 2022 and beyond.
