Brookdale Senior Living Does Not Renew Leases
LTC Properties announced that Brookdale Senior Living finally decided not to renew leases on 35 assisted living communities with 1,471 units in eight states. Most, if not all, of these properties came to Brookdale as part of its 2005 acquisition of Alterra Healthcare Corporation.

Also not too shabby from a financial perspective is Avamere Family of Companies, which now leases 29 SNFs from... Read More »
Brookdale Fourth Quarter Delights Investors
We were hoping that maybe, just maybe, Brookdale Senior Living would post a “breakout” fourth quarter earnings report. They didn’t. But the alternative, a negative surprise, did not happen either. Phew. We have to hand it to CEO Cindy Baier, who always sounds so confident, positive, mission-directed and knowledgeable, whether on stage or on an earnings call. You almost want to hug her after she presents. Perhaps that is why the Board continues to support her. The problem is that shareholders have not bought into her and the company’s performance, which is demonstrated in the share price, which remains in the doldrums. However, shareholders may be beginning to buy into the message, or at... Read More »Schedule a demo
