Genesis HealthCare Buys and Divests

by | Feb 6, 2019 7:01 am | Acquisitions, Financings

As it continues to improve its capital structure and rationalize its lease exposure, Genesis HealthCare has joint ventured with Next Healthcare Capital to buy 15 skilled nursing facilities with 2,147 total beds previously leased from Welltower located in Pennsylvania (6), New Jersey (4), Connecticut (3), West Virginia and Massachusetts. Genesis will own a 46% stake in the venture, and lease the properties, at presumably a lower rate than with Welltower, and there will be no escalators for the first five years. Welltower’s lease had 2% annual escalators. Next Healthcare appears to be willing to wait for that extra return, since Genesis has a purchase option beginning in 2026 to buy out the... Read More »
