Case Studies & Conversation at the 2nd Quarterly Investor Call
The second edition of the Quarterly Investor Call, hosted by The SeniorCare Investor, scheduled for July 24th, is coming at a pivotal time in the seniors housing and care industry as the M&A market is on track to set a record for transaction activity in any given year, and by a healthy margin. It may shock some of you that we are witnessing the busiest M&A period in the history of the industry. It may be shocking because the effective federal funds rate is above 5% and the 10-year Treasury rate has been hovering above 4% for much of the previous year. Also shocking because of the many roadblocks to transactions in place today, from extended due diligence to financing difficulties... Read More »
60 Seconds with Steve Monroe: Purposeful Living?
My friend Bob Kramer likes to go on stage and talk about how seniors housing is about to get disrupted in a major way, and that if you don’t change, you will be “disrupted” out of business. Pretty harsh words, but he is most likely talking about the top 10% of the market, the market that most everyone likes to target.

They want to contribute to their community as opposed to simply take from it. As part of that, Bob believes seniors housing communities need to provide a sense of purpose to their residents, adding life to their years, not years... Read More »
Brookdale’s June Occupancy Should Be Higher
Brookdale Senior Living reported June and second quarter 2024 occupancy, and while census increased, is it enough to carry them through next year’s winter season? Probably not, unless they have a huge July and August, which is possible, but not likely. Weighted average occupancy for June came in at 78.2%, up 10 basis points sequentially, but still below every month in the fourth quarter last year. Month-end occupancy was a little better, at 79.7%, up 20 basis points from May and up 50 basis points from April. But that 79.7% occupancy at the end of June is exactly the same as the end of September last year. That is not progress. The press release had a great line. “Both June and... Read More »
60 Seconds with Swett: Overturning Chevron and the Effects on M&A
There has been a lot of news to analyze from Washington, D.C. in the last couple of weeks, and the result of the 2024 election will certainly impact the operational and investment landscape in senior care. But we are still wrapping our heads around perhaps the most consequential news of late for the industry, which was the Supreme Court’s overruling of the Chevron doctrine, the 40-year judicial standard that had given a lot of leeway for administrative bodies to interpret statutes and implement regulations across the country. The case overturning Chevron is known as Loper. Now, it is up to the courts to determine those administrations’ regulatory powers, and ultimately Congress will... Read More »Schedule a demo
