Sonida Senior Living, Inc. (“Sonida” or the “Company”) (NYSE:
SNDA), a leading owner, operator and investor in senior living
communities, announced today the closing of its latest acquisition,
as the Company continues to execute on its capital allocation and
inorganic, accretive growth strategy, which aims to further expand
and upgrade its portfolio to fully leverage operating scale and
efficiencies.
“Sonida’s latest portfolio purchase brings total year-to-date
property acquisitions to 19, as the Company continues to deploy its
fully integrated operating and investment platform to strategically
and aggressively invest in high-quality, recently constructed
communities at attractive valuations, amidst a bevy of historically
favorable senior housing trends,” said Brandon Ribar, President and
Chief Executive Officer.
Capital Allocation – Acquired Two-Asset
Senior Housing Portfolio in the Southeast
On November 1, 2024, the Company finalized the previously
announced acquisition of two senior living communities located in
the Atlanta, Georgia market. The two communities, in Lawrenceville
and Peachtree Corners, are strategically located in high-growth
submarkets of Atlanta with favorable demographic growth and
supply/demand prospects.
Consistent with the Company’s focus on regional densification,
the acquisition brings Sonida’s Atlanta portfolio total to three
assets and further grows its exposure to highly attractive
Southeast markets. The two-asset portfolio has an average asset age
of five years, which will further modernize Sonida’s portfolio, and
compares favorably to an average asset age of 10+ years for
comparable inventory within a five-mile radius.
Sonida’s purchase price of $29.0 million, or approximately
$163,000 per unit, reflects a significant discount to the Company’s
estimate of replacement cost and expands Sonida’s accretive
acquisitions year-to-date, as the Company capitalizes on
historically favorable senior housing trends. The portfolio’s
in-place occupancy is approximately 86% with an average RevPOR of
more than $5,700 and is comprised of 178 units with Assisted Living
(“AL”) and Memory Care (“MC”) offerings (approximately 60% AL and
40% MC). Sonida funded the transaction with cash on its balance
sheet and proceeds from its senior secured revolving credit
facility.
Capital Allocation – Completes
Discounted Payoff of Two Loans at 36% Discount to
Par
As previously announced in August 2024, the Company entered into
loan modification agreements (“Texas Loan Modification”) with one
of its lenders on two owned communities in Texas. The original loan
terms included maturities of April 2025 and October 2031, as well
as cross-default provisions with each other. The Texas Loan
Modification revised the loan maturities to December 2025 on both
communities and provided the Company with an option to make a
discounted payoff (“Texas DPO”) of the outstanding loan principal,
which the Company executed and closed on November 1, 2024. The
Texas DPO amount of $18.5 million represents a discount of 36% on
the total principal outstanding of $28.7 million on these two loans
(as of July 31, 2024).
