Sonida Senior Living, Inc. (the "Company," "Sonida," "we," "our," or "us") (NYSE:SNDA), a leading owner, operator and investor of senior housing communities, today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

"The first quarter of 2026 marks the beginning of a new phase of evolution for Sonida. With our operating foundation firmly in place, we are entering Phase 3 — Compounding, with clear momentum and a focused strategy for creating long-term value. Our same-store portfolio delivered strong pro forma results in the quarter, with occupancy expanding 220 basis points year-over-year and community NOI increasing 14% with 170 basis points of margin expansion. As we scale across a larger, more integrated portfolio, tools like SPIN, our Sonida Performance Insight Navigator, are becoming central to how our community teams deliver high-quality care, manage resources efficiently, and drive sustainable NOI growth over time.

Alongside our operational progress, we recently introduced a refined capital allocation framework, prioritizing our highest-conviction opportunities, pursuing disciplined external growth, and maintaining balance sheet flexibility, all in service of compounding value deliberately and delivering durable, compelling long-term returns for our shareholders," said Brandon Ribar, President and CEO.

CHP Merger

As previously announced, on March 11, 2026, the Company completed the acquisition of CNL Healthcare Properties, Inc. ("CHP"), a public non-traded real estate investment trust which owned a national portfolio of 69 high-quality senior housing communities, pursuant to the definitive merger agreement (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among the Company, CHP and its affiliates (the "CHP Merger"). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of CHP in a stock and cash transaction valued at approximately $1.8 billion, with approximately 66% of the consideration paid in the form of newly issued Sonida Common Stock and approximately 34% paid in cash. Specifically, each share of CHP common stock was converted into $2.32 in cash and 0.1318 shares of Sonida common stock, which was determined by dividing (a) $4.58 by (b) the volume weighted average price ("VWAP") of Sonida common stock during a measurement period prior to closing of the transaction was $35.93 and subject to a collar of 15% below the transaction reference price for the Sonida common stock of $26.74 (the "Transaction Reference Price") and 30% above the Transaction Reference Price.

CHP Merger Capitalization

As previously announced, on March 10, 2026, the Company entered into a bridge loan agreement to provide for $270 million of bridge debt financing (the "Bridge Facility"). In addition, the Company incurred aggregate borrowings of $245 million under its revolving credit facility ("Revolving Credit Facility") and $525 million under its permanent term loans facility (the "Term Loans"). The Company's Revolving Credit Facility has a leverage-based pricing matrix of Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 1.35% margin and SOFR plus 2.00% margin, and a matures on March 10, 2030. The Term Loans are comprised of two equal tranches: a three-year tranche that matures March 10, 2029 and a five-year tranche that matures March 10, 2031. The Term Loans are subject to a leverage-based pricing matrix between SOFR plus 1.30% margin and SOFR plus 1.95% margin. The proceeds of the Bridge Facility, together with the proceeds of the Term Loans and the Revolving Credit Facility, were used to fund a portion of the cash consideration paid to the holders of common stock of CHP pursuant to the Merger Agreement, to repay certain existing unsecured senior indebtedness of CHP, to pay certain fees and expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing, to refinance the borrowings under the Company's then existing revolving credit facility, and for general corporate purposes. The Bridge Facility will mature on March 9, 2027. The Bridge Facility is subject to a leverage-based pricing matrix between SOFR plus 1.35% margin and SOFR plus 2.00% margin; provided that the margin applicable to the Bridge Facility will increase by 0.25% on each date that is 90, 180 and 270 days after March 10, 2026. The Company entered into a SOFR-based interest rate cap ("IRC") to reduce exposure to the variable interest rate fluctuations associated with the Bridge Facility. The IRC has a total cost of $35 thousand, an aggregate notional amount of $270 million, a 12-month term and a cap rate of 4.25%. The Bridge Facility is expected to be replaced through property-level financing prior to its maturity. The Company entered into a SOFR-based IRC to reduce exposure to the variable interest rate fluctuations associated with the Term Loans. The IRC has a total cost of $0.6 million, an aggregate notional amount of $262.5 million, a 36-month term and a cap rate of 4.50%.

On March 30, 2026, the Company incurred an additional $25 million in permanent term loans under the Term Loans facility, and on March 31, 2026, incurred an additional $25 million on the Revolving Credit Facility when it added an incremental lender into the two debt facilities. On March 31, 2026 the Company repaid $50 million of loans outstanding under the Bridge Facility. As a result of the transaction, as of March 31, 2026 the Term Loans increased to $550 million in permanent term loans in two equal tranches, the Revolving Credit Facility increased to a commitment of $430 million, and the Bridge Facility decreased to $220 million.

On May 7, 2026, the Company added an incremental lender to its Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loans facility, increasing each by $25 million. The funds were used on May 7, 2026 to repay $50 million of loans outstanding under the Bridge Facility. As a result of the transaction, as of May 7, 2026, the Term Loans increased to $575 million in permanent term loans in two equal tranches, the Revolving Credit Facility increased to a commitment of $455 million, and the Bridge Facility decreased to $170 million.

In addition, to provide cash funding for the CHP Merger, entities affiliated with Conversant Capital, LLC and Silk Partners LP, two of the Company's largest shareholders, funded an aggregate amount of $110 million, less $1.2 million in issuance costs, in exchange for the issuance of 4,113,688 of Sonida Common Stock on March 11, 2026 in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act at a price per share equal to the Transaction Reference Price of $26.74, in accordance with certain investment agreements.

SUMMARY OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS

THREE MONTHS ENDED March 31, 2026

(in thousands)

Results of Operations

Three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to three months ended March 31, 2025

Revenues

Resident revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $108.4 million as compared to $79.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing an increase of $29.1 million, or 36.7%. The increase in resident revenue was primarily attributable to an additional 54 senior housing operating properties ("SHOP") communities acquired in connection with the CHP Merger, and to a lesser extent, increases in occupancy and average rent rates on the remaining owned communities.

Rental income of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was derived from the 15 triple-net ("NNN") senior housing communities that were acquired in connection with the CHP Merger.

Expenses

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $82.7 million as compared to $60.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing an increase of $22.3 million, or 36.8%. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in operating expenses related to the 54 additional SHOP communities acquired during 2026.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $10.5 million as compared to $8.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing an increase of $2.0 million. The increase was primarily due to a result of an increase in stock-based compensation of $1.4 million combined with an increase in labor and employee related expenses of $0.8 million to support the Company's growth initiatives, partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in other expenses.

Transaction, transition and restructuring costs were $26.1 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The costs incurred during this quarter primarily include legal, audit, banking and other costs to support the Company's recent debt and restructuring activities in connection with the CHP Merger.

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $12.8 million as compared to $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing an increase of $3.4 million, which was primarily due to the incremental borrowings associated with the financing of the CHP Merger.

Other income (expense), net for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $1.1 million as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by $0.6 million in other income for recognized gross employee retention credits received from Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act funding for businesses that had certain employee costs and were affected by the coronavirus pandemic.

As a result of the foregoing factors, the Company reported net loss attributable to Sonida shareholders of $41.2 million and $12.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On May 7, 2026, the Company added an incremental lender to its Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loans facility, increasing each by $25 million and incurring $0.4 million in lender fees. The funds were used on May 7, 2026 to repay $50 million of loans outstanding under our Bridge Facility. As a result of the transaction, as of May 7, 2026, the Term Loans increased to $575 million in term loans in two equal tranches, the Revolving Credit Facility increased to a commitment of $455 million (with $278 borrowed thereunder), and the Bridge Facility decreased to $170 million.

Cash Flows

The table below presents a summary of the Company's net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing, and financing activities (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2026			2025			Change
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	(35,889	)	$	3,823		$	(39,712	)
Net cash used in investing activities		(923,335	)		(7,945	)		(915,390	)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities		1,029,176			(2,548	)		1,031,724
Increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	69,952		$	(6,670	)	$	76,622

In addition to approximately $84.3 million of unrestricted cash as of March 31, 2026, our future liquidity will depend in part upon our operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions, and financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. Principal sources of liquidity are expected to be cash flows from operations, borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, proceeds from debt financings, refinancings or loan modifications, and proceeds from equity offerings. These transactions are expected to provide additional financial flexibility to us and increase our liquidity position. On March 11, 2026, the holders of all of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock converted all of such shares to shares of our common stock. As a result, no shares of Series A Preferred Stock remained outstanding, and no further dividends will be payable.

The Company, from time to time, considers and evaluates financial and capital raising transactions related to its portfolio, including debt financings and refinancings, purchases and sales of assets, equity offerings and other transactions. There can be no assurance that the Company will continue to generate cash flows at or above current levels, or that the Company will be able to obtain the capital necessary to meet the Company's short- and long-term capital requirements.

We will need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity, including the $170 million Bridge Facility (inclusive of our recent financing above) that will mature in March 2027. We expect to repay the Bridge Facility in 2026 with the net proceeds of additional financing transactions secured by certain of the CHP properties, including any property-level agency or mortgage financing. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness on attractive terms on or before maturity or on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Recent changes in the current economic environment, and other future changes, could result in decreases in the fair value of assets, slowing of transactions, and the tightening of liquidity and credit markets. These impacts could make securing debt or refinancings for the Company or buyers of the Company's properties more difficult or on terms not acceptable to the Company. The Company's actual liquidity and capital funding requirements depend on numerous factors, including its operating results, its capital expenditures for community investment, and general economic conditions, as well as other factors described in "Item 1A. Risk Factors" of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 12, 2026.

DEFINITIONS

RevPAR, or average monthly revenue per available unit, is defined by the Company as resident revenue for the period, divided by the weighted average number of available units in the corresponding portfolio for the period, divided by the number of months in the period. The RevPAR calculation does not include rental income.

RevPOR, or average monthly revenue per occupied unit, is defined by the Company as resident revenue for the period, divided by the weighted average number of occupied units in the corresponding portfolio for the period, divided by the number of months in the period. RevPOR is a significant driver of our senior housing revenue performance.

Same-Store Portfolio is defined by the Company as SHOP communities that are wholly or partially owned, and operational for the full year in each year beginning as of January 1st of the prior year. Our management uses Same-Store Portfolio operating results and data for decision making and components of executive compensation, and we believe such results and data provide useful information to investors, because it enables comparisons of revenue, expense, and other operating measures for a consistent portfolio over time without giving effect to the impacts of communities that were not consolidated and operational for the comparison periods, communities acquired or disposed during the comparison periods (or planned for disposition).

Non Same-Store Portfolio is defined by the Company as SHOP communities that are wholly or partially owned and either (i) not operational or not owned for the full year in each year beginning as of January 1st of the prior year or (ii) have undergone or are undergoing strategic repositioning as a result of significant changes in the business model, care offerings, and/or capital re-investment plans, that in each case, have disrupted, or are expected to disrupt, normal course operations. These communities will be included in the Same-Store Portfolio once operating under normal course operating structures for the full year in each year beginning as of January 1st of the prior year.

Senior Housing Operating Properties (SHOP) "Senior Housing" is defined as residential real estate assets designed to accommodate the needs of senior residents, including but not limited to independent living, assisted living, and memory care facilities. Within this category, "Senior Housing Operating Properties" (SHOP) refers exclusively to those properties in which the Company, directly or through third-party management agreements, maintains operational control and bears the associated risks and rewards of ownership, including but not limited to occupancy, revenue generation, and operating expenses. For the avoidance of doubt, this definition expressly excludes senior housing properties subject to triple net lease ("NNN") agreements. Under such agreements, operational responsibilities, including property management, operating expenses, and financial performance, are borne solely by the lessee, and the Company's involvement is limited to receiving fixed rental payments. As such, NNN Portfolio assets are not included within the scope of the SHOP portfolio.

NNN Portfolio is defined by the Company as wholly owned seniors housing properties that are leased to third-party tenants under triple-net or similar lease structures, where the tenant bears all or substantially all of the costs (including cost for real estate taxes, utilities, insurance and ordinary repairs). Sonida is not involved in property management.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This earnings release contains the financial measures (1) Net Operating Income, (2) Net Operating Income Margin, (3) Adjusted EBITDA, and (4) Same-store amounts for these metrics, each of which is not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). Presentations of these non-GAAP financial measures are intended to aid investors in better understanding the factors and trends affecting the Company's performance and liquidity. However, investors should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures as a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, including net income (loss), income (loss) from operations, net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, or revenue. Investors are cautioned that amounts presented in accordance with the Company's definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies because not all companies calculate non-GAAP measures in the same manner. Investors are urged to review the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures from the most comparable financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, which are included below.

The Company believes that presentation of Net Operating Income and Net Operating Income Margin as performance measures is useful to investors because such measures are some of the metrics used by the Company's management to evaluate the performance of the Company's owned portfolio of communities, to review the Company's comparable historic and prospective core operating performance of the Company's owned communities, and to make day-to-day operating decisions. The Company also believes that the presentation of such non-GAAP financial measures and Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because such measures provide an assessment of operational factors that management can impact in the short-term, primarily revenues and the controllable cost structure of the organization, by eliminating items related to the Company's financing and capital structure and other items that management does not consider as part of the Company's underlying core operating performance and that management believes impact the comparability of performance between periods.

Net Operating Income and Net Operating Income Margin have material limitations as performance measures, including the exclusion of general and administrative expenses that are necessary to operate the Company and oversee its communities. Furthermore, such non-GAAP financial measures and Adjusted EBITDA exclude (i) interest that is necessary to operate the Company's business under its current financing and capital structure, and (ii) depreciation, amortization, and impairment charges that may represent the wear and tear and/or reduction in value of the Company's communities and other assets and may be indicative of future needs for capital expenditures. The Company may also incur income/expense similar to those for which adjustments may be made and such income/expense may significantly affect the Company's operating results.

Net Operating Income and Net Operating Income Margin (Unaudited)

Net Operating Income and Net Operating Income Margin are non-GAAP performance measures that the Company defines as net income (loss) excluding: general and administrative expenses (inclusive of stock-based compensation expense), interest income, interest expense, other income (expense), provision for income taxes, management fees, and further adjusted to exclude income/expense associated with non-cash, non-operational, transactional, or organizational restructuring items that management does not consider as part of the Company's underlying core operating performance and that management believes impact the comparability of performance between periods. For the periods presented herein, such other items include depreciation and amortization expense, transaction, transition and restructuring costs, impairment of long-lived assets, loss from equity method investment, casualty loss, non-recurring settlement fees, non-income tax, and non-property tax. Net Operating Income Margin is calculated by dividing Net Operating Income by resident revenue. The Company presents these non-GAAP measures on a consolidated community and same-store community basis.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures of Net Operating Income and Net Operating Income Margin, in each case, on a consolidated community and same-store community basis to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) for the periods indicated:

CHP ADJUSTED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL MEASURES

Certain measures presented during our earnings call and in this earnings release have been further adjusted below to effect to the CHP Merger as if it was consummated on the first day of the period presented, as we believe such adjustment provides investors with useful information about the combined business. These pro forma adjustments have been calculated based on CHP's internal management accounts and reporting. We believe that the adjustments represent a reasonable estimate for CHP's business for the relevant periods; however, there can be no assurance that the combined business would have achieved the same results if we had acquired CHP at the beginning of such periods.

Our pro forma financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and three months ended March 31, 2026 are not yet complete. The preliminary estimates presented below were prepared by, and are the responsibility of, the Company's management, based upon a number of assumptions. We have provided ranges, rather than specific amounts, for the preliminary results described below primarily because our pro forma financial statements are not complete, and the calculations are subject to revision as we integrate CHP into our accounting and control systems. Such revisions may be significant. We may identify items that would require us to make adjustments to the preliminary set forth below.

This preliminary estimated financial data should not be viewed as a substitute for consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") or our pro forma financial statements prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The Company plans to file pro forma financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026 on a Form 8-K within the month of May. Our independent registered public accounting firm has not audited, reviewed, compiled, or applied agreed-upon procedures with respect to the ranges below and does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto.

The Company is not able to provide a reconciliation of the CHP adjustments to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts due to the timing of and visibility into the underlying data used to conform to the presentation of the Company and its filing peers.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we estimate that CHP would have contributed between $21.0 million and $23.0 million, $22.5 million and $25.0 million, and $60.5 million and $67.0 million to our reported community net operating income, Adjusted EBITDA, and resident revenue, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we estimate that CHP would have contributed between $22.0 million and $24.0 million, $21.5 million and $24.0 million, and $72.0 million and $80.0 million to our reported community net operating income, Adjusted EBITDA, and resident revenue, respectively.

For the three months ended December 31, 2025, we estimate that CHP would have contributed between $22.5 million and $25.0 million, $22.5 million and $25.0 million, and $75.5 million and $83.5 million to our reported community net operating income, Adjusted EBITDA, and resident revenue, respectively.
