BRENTWOOD, Tenn., April 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Brookdale Senior Living Inc. (NYSE:BKD) ("Brookdale" or "the Company") announced today the Company completed a successful refinancing transaction from KeyBank's real estate business through its Freddie Mac loan origination program, effectively extending a significant portion of the Company's 2027 debt maturities.

On March 31, 2026, the Company obtained an aggregate $185 million of debt on seven communities and repaid $191 million of outstanding mortgage debt secured by 11 communities previously scheduled to mature in March 2027.

"This refinancing demonstrates the continued confidence our lending partners have in Brookdale's business, communities, and long-term strategy. We extend our gratitude to Freddie Mac and KeyBank for their continued support and partnership."
