Are More Capital Senior Living Problems Coming Due?

Are More Capital Senior Living Problems Coming Due?

Capital Senior Living released its first quarter earnings this week, and the results were sort of a mixed bag. Of course, the occupancy results were great news, with April average census rising 140 basis points from the Q1 average to 76.95%. And spot occupancy increased from 75.3% at the end of February to 78.5% by the end of April, for a 320-basis point increase. We’re not sure if we’ve seen a steeper increase. About 93% of residents are now vaccinated, COVID cases fell to zero across the 60 owned communities, and 100% of communities are open to new residents, so the runway to recovery is smoother.   Looking forward, CSU will also not be encumbered by the 39...
