FRANKLIN, Tenn., Feb. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Community Healthcare Trust Incorporated (NYSE:CHCT) (the "Company") today announced results for the three months ended December 31, 2025. The Company reported net income for the three months ended December 31, 2025 of approximately $14.4 million, or $0.51 per diluted common share. Funds from operations ("FFO") and adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO") for the three months ended December 31, 2025 totaled $0.49 and $0.55 per diluted common share, respectively.

Items Impacting Our Results include:

During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company acquired an inpatient rehabilitation facility in Florida upon completion of construction for a purchase price of approximately $28.5 million and cash consideration of approximately $28.5 million. The property was 100.0% leased to a tenant with a lease expiration in 2040 and an expected return of approximately 9.3%. The acquisition was funded with net proceeds from the sale of an inpatient rehabilitation facility in Texas through a like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the United States Internal Revenue Code.
During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company disposed of three buildings, including the inpatient rehabilitation facility in Texas which was used to fund the inpatient rehabilitation acquisition in Florida, received net proceeds in the aggregate of approximately $31.6 million, and recognized a net gain of approximately $12.3 million on the sales. Also, on February 12, 2026, the Company sold the property classified as an asset held for sale at December 31, 2025 and received net proceeds of approximately $5.2 million.
During the fourth quarter of 2025, the geriatric behavioral hospital operator, a tenant in six of the Company's properties, paid rent and interest totaling $0.2 million. In July 2025, the tenant signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) for the sale of its business to a behavioral healthcare provider. Among other terms and conditions of the sale, the buyer would sign new leases for the six geriatric hospitals owned by the Company. The buyer is finalizing legal and business due diligence, and while the transaction is progressing, the Company cannot provide assurance regarding the specific timing or the ultimate certainty of the closing.
The Company has five properties under definitive purchase agreements, to be acquired after completion and occupancy, for an aggregate expected purchase price of approximately $122.5 million. The Company's expected returns on these investments are approximately 9.1% to 9.75%. The Company anticipates closing on one of these properties in the first quarter of 2026 and the remaining properties throughout 2026 and 2027; however, the Company cannot provide assurance as to the timing of when, or whether, these transactions will actually close.
During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company did not issue any shares under its ATM program.
On February 12, 2026, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly common stock dividend in the amount of $0.4775 per share. The dividend is payable on March 4, 2026 to stockholders of record on February 23, 2026.

(1)

Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors deem presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. For that reason, the Company considers funds from operations ("FFO") and adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO") to be appropriate measures of operating performance of an equity real estate investment trust ("REIT"). In particular, the Company believes that AFFO is useful because it allows investors, analysts and Company management to compare the Company's operating performance to the operating performance of other real estate companies and between periods on a consistent basis without having to account for differences caused by unanticipated items and other events.

The Company uses the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT") definition of FFO. FFO is an operating performance measure adopted by NAREIT. NAREIT defines FFO as the most commonly accepted and reported measure of a REIT's operating performance equal to net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity, plus depreciation and amortization related to real estate properties, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. NAREIT also provides REITs with an option to exclude gains, losses and impairments of assets that are incidental to the main business of the REIT from the calculation of FFO.

In addition to FFO, the Company presents AFFO and AFFO per share. The Company defines AFFO as FFO, excluding certain expenses related to closing costs of properties acquired accounted for as business combinations and mortgages funded, excluding straight-line rent and the amortization of stock-based compensation, and including or excluding other non-cash items from time to time. AFFO presented herein may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definition.

FFO and AFFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as indicators of the Company's financial performance or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as measures of the Company's liquidity, nor are they necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company's needs. The Company believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the consolidated historical operating results of the Company, FFO and AFFO should be examined in conjunction with net income as presented elsewhere herein.

(2)

Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for FFO and AFFO are calculated based on the treasury method, rather than the 2-class method used to calculate earnings per share. Restricted stock awards and time-based RSUs are included in the calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding to the extent that they are dilutive. Performance-based RSUs are included in the calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding to the extent that they are in-the-money as of the end of the reporting period and are dilutive.
