MEDICAL PROPERTIES TRUST, INC. AND MPT OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P.

AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Organization

Medical Properties Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was formed on August 27, 2003, under the Maryland General Corporation Law for the purpose of engaging in the business of investing in, owning, and leasing healthcare real estate. Our operating partnership subsidiary, MPT Operating Partnership, L.P., (the “Operating Partnership”) through which we conduct all of our operations, was formed in September 2003. At present, we own all of the limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership and have elected to report our required disclosures and that of the Operating Partnership on a combined basis, except where material differences exist.

We operate as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Accordingly, we will generally not be subject to United States (“U.S.”) federal income tax, provided that we continue to qualify as a REIT and our distributions to our stockholders equal or exceed our taxable income. Certain non-real estate activities we undertake are conducted by entities which we elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”). Our TRS entities are subject to both U.S. federal and state income taxes. For our properties located outside the U.S., we are subject to the local taxes of the jurisdictions where our properties reside and/or legal entities are domiciled; however, we do not expect to incur additional taxes in the U.S. from foreign-based income as the majority of such income flows through our REIT.

Our primary business strategy is to acquire and develop real estate and improvements, primarily for long-term lease to providers of healthcare services, such as operators of general acute care hospitals, inpatient physical rehabilitation hospitals, behavioral health facilities, long-term acute care hospitals, and freestanding ER/urgent care facilities. We also make mortgage and other loans to operators of similar facilities. In addition, we may obtain profits or equity interests in our tenants, from time-to-time, in order to enhance our overall return.

Our business model facilitates acquisitions and recapitalizations, and allows operators of healthcare facilities to unlock the value of their real estate to fund facility improvements, technology upgrades, and other investments in operations. At March 31, 2021, we have investments in approximately 425 facilities in 33 states in the U.S., in six countries in Europe, one country in South America, and across Australia. We manage our business as a single business segment.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements: The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for interim financial information, including rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for complete financial statements.

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We believe the estimates and assumptions underlying our condensed consolidated financial statements are reasonable and supportable based on the information available as of March 31, 2021 (particularly as it relates to our assessments of the recoverability of our real estate and the adequacy of our credit loss reserves on loans and financing receivables). Although COVID-19 vaccines continue to roll out worldwide and hospitals around the world have generally returned to their normal operations, the ultimate impact to our tenants’ results of operations and liquidity and their ability to pay our rent and interest due to the impact of COVID-19 cannot be predicted with 100% confidence. This makes any estimates and assumptions as of March 31, 2021 inherently less certain than they would be absent the potential impact of COVID-19. Actual results may ultimately differ from our estimates.

For information about significant accounting policies, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. There have been no material changes to these significant accounting policies other than the following:

Recent Accounting Developments

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” (“ASU 2020-04”) to simplify the accounting for contract modifications made to replace LIBOR or other reference rates that are expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criterion are met. The optional expedients and exceptions can be applied to contract modifications made until December 31, 2022. On January 7, 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)” (“ASU 2021-01”), which clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the transition. We have evaluated our contracts that are referenced to LIBOR or other reference rates expected to be discontinued. We expect our British pound sterling term loan and corresponding interest rate swap to be modified with a replacement reference rate during 2021, and we expect to account for such modifications using the expedients and exceptions provided for in ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01. We are continuing to evaluate the need to modify our U.S. dollar LIBOR contracts, such as our unsecured credit facility, as the requirement to replace the U.S. dollar LIBOR has been extended to June 30, 2023. Moreover, we do not expect any impact to our Australian dollar term loan and corresponding interest rate swap, as these contracts are not referenced to rates that are expected to be discontinued.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Variable Interest Entities

At March 31, 2021, we had loans and/or equity investments in certain variable interest entities approximating $350 million, which represents our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement in such entities. We have determined that we were not the primary beneficiary of any variable interest entity in which we hold a variable interest because we do not control the activities (such as the day-to-day operations) that most significantly impact the economic performance of these entities.

2021 Activity

Priory Group Transaction

On January 19, 2021, we completed the first of two phases in the Priory Group (“Priory”) transaction in which we funded an £800 million interim mortgage loan on an identified portfolio of Priory real estate assets. In phase two, in a series of transactions we expect will be completed during the 2021 second quarter, we will acquire a portfolio of select real estate assets from Priory (now owned by Waterland Private Equity Fund VII C.V. (“Waterland VII”)) in individual sale-and-leaseback transactions, subject to customary real estate and other closing conditions. As all conditions to closing for a particular asset are satisfied, the applicable purchase price for the asset will be paid by us by proportionally converting and reducing the principal balance of the interim mortgage loan we made to Waterland VII in phase one. The aggregate purchase price for the real estate assets we acquire from Priory is thus expected to be approximately £800 million, plus customary stamp duty, tax, and other transaction costs.

In addition, we agreed to provide Waterland VII with a 364-day £250 million acquisition loan, which we funded on January 19, 2021, in connection with the closing of Waterland VII’s acquisition of Priory. The loan is secured by the same security assets securing the £800 million interim mortgage loan.

In connection with these transactions, we also acquired a 9.9% passive equity interest in the Waterland VII affiliate that indirectly owns Priory for a nominal amount.

We funded this investment using £500 million from a new $900 million interim credit facility as described in Note 4, £350 million from our revolving facility, and the remainder from cash on-hand.

Other

On January 8, 2021, we made a $335 million loan to Steward Health Care System LLC (“Steward”), which was used to redeem a similarly sized convertible loan from Steward’s former private equity sponsor.

2020 Activity

Circle Transaction

On January 8, 2020, we acquired a portfolio of 30 acute care hospitals located throughout the United Kingdom for a net purchase price of approximately £1.5 billion from affiliates of BMI Healthcare, Inc. (“BMI”), as part of a share purchase in which we also inherited certain deferred income tax liabilities and £27.6 million of unearned rent revenue. In a related transaction, affiliates of Circle Health Ltd. (“Circle”) entered into definitive agreements to acquire BMI and assume operations of its 52 facilities in the United Kingdom. As part of our acquisition, we inherited 30 existing leases with the operator that had initial fixed terms ending in 2050, with no renewal options but with annual inflation-based escalators. Once final regulatory approval was received in the 2020 second quarter, these 30 leases with Circle were amended (effective June 16, 2020) to include two five-year renewal options and improve the annual inflation-based escalators. These 30 leases are cross-defaulted and guaranteed by Circle.

Development Activities

During the 2020 first quarter, we completed construction and began recording rental income on a general acute care facility located in Idaho Falls, Idaho. This facility commenced rent on January 21, 2020 and is being leased to Surgery Partners, Inc. pursuant to an existing long-term lease.

Leasing Operations (Lessor)

We acquire and develop healthcare facilities and lease the facilities to healthcare operating companies under long-term net leases (typical initial fixed terms of 15 years) and most include renewal options at the election of our tenants, generally in five year increments. Approximately 99% of our leases provide annual rent escalations based on increases in the Consumer Price Index (or similar index outside the U.S.) and/or fixed minimum annual rent escalations ranging from 0.5% to 3.0%. Many of our domestic leases contain purchase options with pricing set at various terms but in no case less than our total investment. For five properties with a carrying value of $230 million, our leases require a residual value guarantee from the tenant. Our leases typically require the tenant to handle and bear most of the costs associated with our properties including repair/maintenance, property taxes, and insurance. We routinely inspect our properties to ensure the residual value of each of our assets is being maintained. Except for leases classified as financing leases as noted below, all of our leases are classified as operating leases.

At March 31, 2021, leases on 13 Ernest facilities and five Prime Healthcare Services, Inc. (“Prime”) facilities are accounted for as direct financing leases and leases on 13 of our Prospect Medical Holdings, Inc. (“Prospect”) facilities and five of our Ernest facilities are accounted for as a financing.

COVID-19 Rent Deferrals

In the first quarter of 2021, we collected $0.8 million of rent previously deferred due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Pursuant to our agreements with certain tenants, we expect the remaining outstanding deferred rent balance of approximately $10.6 million as of March 31, 2021, to be paid over specified periods in the future, with interest.

Adeptus Health

As discussed in previous filings, our original real estate portfolio of approximately 60 properties leased to Adeptus Health, Inc. (“Adeptus”) has gone through significant changes starting with Adeptus filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2017. During 2020, we transitioned the remaining facilities away from Adeptus, which resulted in impairment charges including approximately $9.9 million in the first quarter of 2020, along with a charge to write-off straight-line rent and other receivables, partially offset by a draw on a $9.1 million letter of credit. However, these transition measures have also provided for new tenant relationships being formed with strong credit worthy operators like Ochsner Health System, Dignity Health, UC Health, and HCA Healthcare, that are now leasing approximately 40 of these transitional facilities under long-term leases. At March 31, 2021, 17 of these transitional properties, representing less than 1% of our total assets, remain vacant, and each of these properties are in various stages of being re-leased or sold. At March 31, 2021, we believe our investment in these real estate assets are fully recoverable, but no assurances can be given that we will not have any further impairments in future periods.

Alecto Facilities

As noted in previous filings, we originally leased four acute care facilities to and had a mortgage loan on a fifth property (Olympia Medical Center) with Alecto Healthcare Services LLC (“Alecto”). During the first quarter of 2020, we donated the Wheeling facility to a local municipality, resulting in a $9.1 million real estate impairment charge. In addition, we re-leased one acute care facility to West Virginia University and sold another facility in 2020. In the first quarter of 2021, Alecto completed the sale of Olympia Medical Center to the UCLA Health System. Our proceeds of approximately $51 million from this sale were used to payoff the mortgage and working capital loans in full, with the remaining proceeds used to recover certain past due amounts. At March 31, 2021, we continue to lease one acute care facility to Alecto approximating 0.1% of our total assets.

The increase in mortgage and acquisition loans relates to the £800 million and £250 million loans funded in connection with the Priory Group Transaction (as more fully described above in this Note 3).

Other loans consist of loans to our tenants for working capital and other purposes and include our shareholder loan made to the joint venture with Primotop Holdings S.à.r.l. (“Primotop”) in the amount of €297 million. The increase in other loans is primarily related to the $335 million loan to Steward (as more fully described above in this Note 3).

Other Investment Activities

Pursuant to our existing 9.9% equity interest in Steward, we received an $11 million cash distribution during the first quarter of 2021, which was accounted for as a return of capital.

Pursuant to our 4.9% stake in Aevis Victoria SA (“Aevis”), we recorded a $4.1 million favorable non-cash fair value adjustment to mark our investment in Aevis stock to market during the first quarter of 2021; whereas, this was a $10.4 million unfavorable non-cash fair value adjustment in the 2020 first quarter.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

We monitor concentration risk in several ways due to the nature of our real estate assets that are vital to the communities in which they are located and given our history of being able to replace inefficient operators of our facilities, if needed, with more effective operators:

 

1)

Facility concentration – At March 31, 2021, our largest single property represented approximately 3% of our total assets, similar to December 31, 2020.

 

2)

Operator concentration – For the three months ended March 31, 2021, revenue from Steward, Circle, and Prospect, individually, represented more than 10% of our total revenues. In comparison, Steward, Circle, Prospect, and Prime, individually, represented more than 10% of our total revenues for the 2020 first quarter.

 

3)

Geographic concentration – At March 31, 2021, investments in the U.S., Europe, Australia, and South America represented approximately 63%, 31%, 5%, and 1%, respectively, of our total assets, compared to 65%, 28%, 6%, and 1%, respectively, at December 31, 2020.

 

4)

Facility type concentration – For the three months ended March 31, 2021, approximately 83% of our revenues are from our general acute care facilities, while rehabilitation and long-term acute care facilities make up 8% and 2%, respectively. Freestanding ER/urgent care facilities and behavioral health facilities combined to make up the remaining 7%. In comparison, general acute care, rehabilitation, and long-term acute care facilities made up 86%, 9%, and 3%, respectively, of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020, while freestanding ER/urgent care facilities and behavioral health facilities combined to make up the remaining 2%.

2021 Activity

Interim Credit Facility

As previously discussed in Note 3, we entered into a $900 million interim credit facility on January 15, 2021, of which we borrowed £500 million. We paid off and terminated this facility on March 26, 2021.

Credit Facility Amendment

On January 15, 2021, we amended our unsecured credit facility (“Credit Facility”). The amendment extended the maturity of our $1.3 billion revolving facility to February 1, 2024 and can be extended for an additional 12 months at our option. The maturity date of our $200 million unsecured term loan facility was extended to February 1, 2026.

18


In addition to extending the maturity date, the amendment improved interest rate pricing for both facilities. Under the amended Credit Facility and at our election, loans may be made as either ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans. The applicable margin for term loans that are ABR Loans is adjustable on a sliding scale from 0.00% to 0.85% based on our current credit rating. The applicable margin for term loans that are Eurocurrency Loans is adjustable on a sliding scale from 0.85% to 1.85% based on our current credit rating. The applicable margin for revolving loans that are ABR Loans is adjustable on a sliding scale from 0.00% to 0.55% based on our current credit rating. The applicable margin for revolving loans that are Eurocurrency Loans is adjustable on a sliding scale from 0.825% to 1.55% based on our current credit rating. The amended Credit Facility retained the facility fee that is adjustable on a sliding scale from 0.125% to 0.30% based on our current credit rating and is payable on the revolving loan facility.

Senior Unsecured Notes

On March 24, 2021, we completed an £850 million senior unsecured notes offering in two tranches. See below for details of each tranche:

2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2026

On March 24, 2021, we completed a £500 million senior unsecured notes offering. The notes were issued at 99.937% of par value, and interest on the notes is payable annually on March 24 of each year, commencing on March 24, 2022. The notes pay interest in cash at a rate of 2.500% and mature on March 24, 2026.

3.375% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2030

On March 24, 2021, we completed a £350 million senior unsecured notes offering. The notes were issued at 99.448% of par value, and interest on the notes is payable annually on April 24 of each year, commencing on April 24, 2022. The notes pay interest in cash at a rate of 3.375% and mature on April 24, 2030.

We used proceeds from the £850 million senior unsecured notes offering to payoff the interim credit facility and reduce our revolving facility by £341 million on March 26, 2021.

2020 Activity

British Pound Sterling Term Loan

On January 6, 2020, we entered into a £700 million unsecured sterling-denominated term loan with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and several lenders from time-to-time are parties thereto. The term loan matures on January 15, 2025. The applicable margin under the term loan is adjustable based on a pricing grid from 0.85% to 1.65% dependent on our current credit rating. On March 4, 2020, we entered into an interest rate swap transaction (effective March 6, 2020) to fix the interest rate to approximately 0.70% for the duration of the loan. The current applicable margin for the pricing grid (which can vary based on our credit rating) is 1.25% for an all-in fixed rate of 1.95%.

Debt Refinancing and Unutilized Financing Costs

With the amendment of our Credit Facility and the termination of our $900 million interim credit facility, we incurred approximately $2.3 million of debt refinancing costs in the first quarter of 2021.

 

Covenants

Our debt facilities impose certain restrictions on us, including restrictions on our ability to: incur debts; create or incur liens; provide guarantees in respect of obligations of any other entity; make redemptions and repurchases of our capital stock; prepay, redeem, or repurchase debt; engage in mergers or consolidations; enter into affiliated transactions; dispose of real estate or other assets; and change our business. In addition, the credit agreements governing our Credit Facility limit the amount of dividends we can pay as a percentage of normalized adjusted funds from operations (“NAFFO”), as defined in the agreements, on a rolling four quarter basis. At March 31, 2021, the dividend restriction was 95% of NAFFO. The indentures governing our senior unsecured notes also limit the amount of dividends we can pay based on the sum of 95% of NAFFO, proceeds of equity issuances, and certain other net cash proceeds. Finally, our senior unsecured notes require us to maintain total unencumbered assets (as defined in the related indenture) of not less than 150% of our unsecured indebtedness.

In addition to these restrictions, the Credit Facility contains customary financial and operating covenants, including covenants relating to our total leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, secured leverage ratio, consolidated adjusted net worth, unsecured leverage ratio, and unsecured interest coverage ratio. The Credit Facility also contains customary events of default, including among others, nonpayment of principal or interest, material inaccuracy of representations, and failure to comply with our covenants. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the Credit Facility, the entire outstanding balance may become immediately due and payable. At March 31, 2021, we were in compliance with all such financial and operating covenants.

5. Common Stock/Partners’ Capital

Medical Properties Trust, Inc.

On January 11, 2021, we completed an underwritten public offering of 36.8 million shares of our common stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $711 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.

In addition, we sold 3.1 million shares of common stock under our at-the-market equity offering program during the 2021 first quarter, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $67.6 million; while in the 2020 first quarter, we sold 2.6 million shares of common stock under our at-the-market equity offering program, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $62 million.

Subsequent to March 31, 2021, we sold an additional 4.9 million shares of common stock under our at-the-market equity offering program, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $105.5 million.

MPT Operating Partnership, L.P.

At March 31, 2021, the operating partnership is made up of a general partner, Medical Properties Trust, LLC (“General Partner”) and limited partners, including the Company (which owns 100% of the General Partner) and MPT TRS, Inc. (which is 100% owned by the General Partner). By virtue of its ownership of the General Partner, the Company has a 100% ownership interest in the operating partnership. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the operating partnership issued approximately 39.9 million and 2.6 million units, respectively, in direct response to the common stock offerings by Medical Properties Trust, Inc. during the same periods.

6. Stock Awards

We adopted the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) during the second quarter of 2019, which authorizes the issuance of common stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance units, and other stock-based awards. The Equity Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, and we have reserved 12.9 million shares of common stock for awards, out of which 6.2 million shares remain available for future stock awards as of March 31, 2021. Share-based compensation expense totaled $12.3 million and $10.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We have various assets and liabilities that are considered financial instruments. We estimate that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values. We estimate the fair value of our interest and rent receivables using Level 2 inputs such as discounting the estimated future cash flows using the current rates at which similar receivables would be made to others with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The fair value of our mortgage loans and other loans are estimated by using Level 2 inputs such as discounting the estimated future cash flows using the current rates which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. We determine the fair value of our senior unsecured notes using Level 2 inputs such as quotes from securities dealers and market makers. We estimate the fair value of our revolving credit facility and term loans using Level 2 inputs based on the present value of future payments, discounted at a rate which we consider appropriate for such debt.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, are subjective in nature, and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment. Settlement of such fair value amounts may not be a prudent management decision.

The following table summarizes fair value estimates for our financial instruments (in thousands):

Excludes the $205 million acquisition loan made in May 2020 to our international joint venture and related investment in the real estate of three hospitals in Colombia.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Our equity investment and related loan to the international joint venture and our loan investment in the real estate of three hospitals operated by subsidiaries of the international joint venture in Colombia are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as we elected to account for these investments using the fair value option at the point of initial investment during 2020. We elected to account for these investments at fair value due to the size of the investments and because we believe this method was more reflective of current values.

At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the amounts recorded under the fair value option method were as follows (in thousands):

Equity investments/Other loans

 

Our loans to the international joint venture and its subsidiaries are recorded at fair value based on Level 2 inputs by discounting the estimated cash flows using the market rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and the same remaining maturities. Our equity investment in the international joint venture is recorded at fair value based on Level 3 inputs, by using a discounted cash flow model, which requires significant estimates of our investee such as projected revenue and expenses and appropriate consideration of the underlying risk profile of the forecasted assumptions associated with the investee. We classify the equity investment as Level 3, as we use certain unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the fair value measurement, and the valuation requires management judgment due to absence of quoted market prices. For this cash flow model, our observable inputs include use of a capitalization rate and discount rate (which is based on a weighted-average cost of capital) and our unobservable input includes an adjustment for a marketability discount (“DLOM”).

In regards to the underlying projections used in the discounted cash flow model, such projections are provided by the investee. However, we will modify such projections as needed based on our review and analysis of historical results, meetings with key members of management, and our understanding of trends and developments within the healthcare industry. Given our equity investment is in an entity that was a start-up company in 2020, we have not recognized any unrealized gain/loss on such investment in 2020 or 2021.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

In addition to items that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, we have assets and liabilities that are measured, from time-to-time, at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, such as for long-lived asset impairment purposes. In these cases, fair value is based on estimated cash flows discounted at a risk-adjusted rate of interest by using Level 2 inputs.

9. Contingencies

We are a party to various legal proceedings incidental to our business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate liability, if any, with respect to those proceedings is not presently expected to materially affect our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

10. Subsequent Events

On April 16, 2021, we made a CHF 145 million investment in Swiss Medical Network, our tenant via our Infracore equity investment.

Subsequent to March 31, 2021, we received approximately $75 million in loan principal repayments.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations are presented on a combined basis for Medical Properties Trust, Inc. and MPT Operating Partnership, L.P. as there are no material differences between these two entities. Such discussion and analysis should be read together with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in this Form 10-Q and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

As the economy continues to recover from the downturn caused by COVID-19 and vaccines continue to roll out, we expect to receive substantially all rent and interest payments in the future, and we are collecting rent, as expected, that we previously deferred in 2020 (less than 2% of our 2020 annual rent), with interest. However, no assurances can be made that if the pandemic continues for an extended period of time that our rent and interest payments will not be delayed into the future until our tenants can recover.

Forward-Looking Statements.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results or future performance, achievements or transactions or events to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and as updated in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for future periods, and current reports on Form 8-K as we file them with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such factors include, among others, the following:

 

the political, economic, business, real estate, and other market conditions in the U.S. (both national and local), Europe (in particular the United Kingdom, Germany, Switzerland, Spain, Italy, and Portugal), Australia, South America (in particular Colombia), and other foreign jurisdictions where we may own healthcare facilities or transact business, which may have a negative effect on the following, among other things:

 

o

the financial condition of our tenants, our lenders, or institutions that hold our cash balances or are counterparties to certain hedge agreements, which may expose us to increased risks of default by these parties;

 

o

our ability to obtain equity or debt financing on attractive terms or at all, which may adversely impact our ability to pursue acquisition and development opportunities, refinance existing debt, and our future interest expense; and

 

o

the value of our real estate assets, which may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or obtain or maintain debt financing secured by our real estate assets or on an unsecured basis.

 

the impact of COVID-19 on our business, our joint ventures, and the business of our tenants/borrowers and the economy in general, as well as other factors that may affect our business, our joint ventures or that of our tenants/borrowers that are beyond our control, including natural disasters, health crises, or pandemics and subsequent government actions in reaction to such matters;

 

the risk that a condition to closing under the agreements governing any or all of our pending transactions (including phase two of the Priory Group Transaction disclosed in Note 3) that have not closed as of the date hereof may not be satisfied;

 

the possibility that the anticipated benefits from any or all of the transactions we enter into will take longer to realize than expected or will not be realized at all;

 

the competitive environment in which we operate;

 

the execution of our business plan;

 

financing risks;

 

acquisition and development risks;

 

potential environmental contingencies and other liabilities;

 

adverse developments affecting the financial health of one or more of our tenants, including insolvency;

 

other factors affecting the real estate industry generally or the healthcare real estate industry in particular;

 

our ability to maintain our status as a REIT for income tax purposes;

 

our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel;

 

changes in foreign currency exchange rates;

23


 

 

changes in federal, state, or local tax laws in the U.S., Europe, Australia, South America, or other jurisdictions in which we may own healthcare facilities or transact business; and

 

healthcare and other regulatory requirements in the U.S., Europe, Australia, South America, and other foreign countries.

Key Factors that May Affect Our Operations

Our revenue is derived from rents we earn pursuant to the lease agreements with our tenants, from interest income from loans to our tenants and other facility owners, and from profits or equity interests in certain of our tenants’ operations. Our tenants operate in the healthcare industry, generally providing medical, surgical, rehabilitative, and behavioral health care to patients. The capacity of our tenants to pay our rents and interest is dependent upon their ability to conduct their operations at profitable levels. We believe that the business environment of the industry segments in which our tenants operate is generally positive for efficient operators. However, our tenants’ operations are subject to economic, regulatory, market, and other conditions (such as the impact caused by COVID-19) that may affect their profitability, which could impact our results. Accordingly, we monitor certain key performance indicators that we believe provides us with early indications of conditions that could affect the level of risk in our portfolio.

Key factors that we consider in underwriting prospective tenants and in our ongoing monitoring of our tenants’ (and guarantors’) performance include the following:

 

admission levels and surgery/procedure/diagnosis volumes by type;

 

the current, historical, and prospective operating profit (measured by earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and facility rent) of each tenant or borrower and at each facility;

 

the ratio of our tenants’ or borrowers’ operating earnings both to facility rent and to facility rent plus other fixed costs, including debt costs;

 

changes in revenue sources of our tenants’ or borrowers’ revenue, including the relative mix of public payors (including Medicare, Medicaid/MediCal, and managed care in the U.S., pension funds in Germany, and National Health Services in the United Kingdom) and private payors (including commercial insurance and private pay patients);

 

trends in tenants’ cash collections, including comparison to recorded net patient service revenues;

 

tenants’ free cash flows;

 

the potential impact of healthcare pandemics/epidemics, legislation, and other regulations (including changes in reimbursement) on our tenants’ or borrowers’ profitability and liquidity; and

 

the competition and demographics of the local and surrounding areas in which our tenants or borrowers operate.

Certain business factors, in addition to those described above that directly affect our tenants and borrowers, will likely materially influence our future results of operations. These factors include:

 

trends in the cost and availability of capital, including market interest rates, that our prospective tenants may use for their real estate assets instead of financing their real estate assets through lease structures;

 

changes in healthcare regulations that may limit the opportunities for physicians to participate in the ownership of healthcare providers and healthcare real estate;

 

reductions in reimbursements from Medicare, state healthcare programs, and commercial insurance providers that may reduce our tenants’ or borrowers’ profitability and our lease rates;

 

competition from other financing sources; and

 

the ability of our tenants and borrowers to access funds in the credit markets.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Refer to our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of our critical accounting policies, which include investments in real estate, purchase price allocation, loans, credit losses, losses from rent and interest receivables, and our accounting policy on consolidation. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, there were no material changes to these policies.

Overview

We are a self-advised REIT focused on investing in and owning net-leased healthcare facilities across the U.S. and selectively in foreign jurisdictions. Medical Properties Trust, Inc. was incorporated under Maryland law on August 27, 2003, and MPT Operating Partnership, L.P. was formed under Delaware law on September 10, 2003. We conduct substantially all of our business through MPT Operating Partnership, L.P. We acquire and develop healthcare facilities and lease the facilities to healthcare operating companies under long-term net leases, which require the tenant to bear most of the costs associated with the property. We also make mortgage loans to healthcare operators collateralized by their real estate assets. In addition, we selectively make loans to certain of our operators through our taxable REIT subsidiaries, the proceeds of which are typically used for acquisitions and working capital. Finally, from time-to-time, we acquire a profits or other equity interest in our tenants that gives us a right to share in such tenant’s profits and losses.

At March 31, 2021, our portfolio consisted of 425 properties leased or loaned to 50 operators, of which two are under development and 40 are in the form of mortgage loans.

Our investments in healthcare real estate, including mortgage and other loans, as well as any equity investments in our tenants are considered a single reportable segment. At March 31, 2021, all of our investments are located in the U.S., Europe, Australia, and South America. Our total assets are made up of the following (dollars in thousands):

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 Compared to March 31, 2020

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2021, was $163.8 million compared to $81.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This 102% increase in net income is primarily due to incremental revenue from new investments made in 2020 and in early 2021, partially offset by higher interest expense (from additional debt to partially finance these new investments), depreciation expense, general and administrative costs and income taxes due to the growth of the company. In addition, our return on our equity investments were greater in the 2021 first quarter compared to the prior year, and we incurred approximately $19 million of real estate impairment charges in 2020. Normalized funds from operations (“FFO”), after adjusting for certain items (as more fully described in the “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures”), was $243.9 million for the 2021 first quarter, or $0.42 per diluted share, as compared to $191.2 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for the 2020 first quarter. Similar to net income, this 28% increase in Normalized FFO is primarily due to incremental revenue from new investments in 2020 and early 2021.

Our total revenue for the 2021 first quarter is up $68.6 million, or 23%, over the prior year. This increase is made up of the following:

 

Operating lease revenue (includes rent billed and straight-line rent) – up $65.0 million over the prior year of which approximately $48.3 million is incremental revenue from acquisitions made in 2020 (including $16.4 million from the Circle transactions and $24.7 million from the two Steward properties in Utah that were acquired from proceeds of the mortgage loan conversions in the third quarter), $6.0 million is from the reclassification of properties from deferred financing leases to operating leases due to certain lease modifications in the fourth quarter of 2020, $3.5 million is from the commencement of rent on three development properties, $1.7 million is from capital additions in 2021, and approximately $5.6 million is from favorable foreign currency fluctuations. This increase is partially offset by $2.1 million of lower revenue from disposals in 2020.

 

Income from financing leases – down $1.5 million due to the impact from the reclassification of properties from deferred financing leases to operating leases due to certain lease modifications in the fourth quarter of 2020, partially offset by revenue from new financing leases in the 2020 fourth quarter as part of the conversion of Ernest mortgage loans to fee simple asset ownership.

 

Interest and other income – up $5.1 million from the prior year due to the following:

 

-

Interest from loans – up $3.4 million over the prior year due to $29.7 million of incremental revenue earned on loan investments in 2020 and early 2021, including $15.9 million earned on the two loans made to Priory in 2021 and $6.9 million from the loans made to the international joint venture and for the three Colombia properties in 2020, along with $0.5 million of favorable foreign currency fluctuations. This increase is partially offset by $14.7 million of lower interest revenue related to Steward mortgage loans converted to fee simple assets in the third quarter of 2020, $3.0 million of lower interest revenue related to Ernest mortgage loans converted to fee simple assets in the fourth quarter of 2020, and $9.2 million related to the repayment of Prime loans in the fourth quarter of 2020.

 

-

Other income – up $1.7 million from the prior year with the addition of new properties, whereby we received more direct reimbursements from our tenants for ground lease, property taxes, and insurance. Also, other income is higher in 2021 due to an approximate $1 million write-off of straight-line rent related to ground leases on certain Adeptus facilities in the 2020 first quarter.

Interest expense for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, totaled $87.0 million and $80.9 million, respectively. This increase is primarily related to new debt issuances in 2020 and 2021. Our weighted-average interest rate was 3.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to 4.0% in the same period in 2020.

Real estate depreciation and amortization during the first quarter of 2021 increased to $75.6 million from $60.9 million in 2020 due to new investments made after March 31, 2020.

Property-related expenses totaled $5.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, which is consistent with the prior year. Of the $5.5 million of property expenses in the first three months of 2021, approximately $3.5 million represents costs that were reimbursed by our tenants and included in “Interest and other income” line on our condensed consolidated statements of net income.

As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses represent 9.9% for the 2021 first quarter compared to 11.4% in the prior year. On a dollar basis, general and administrative expenses totaled $36.1 million for the 2021 first quarter, which is a $2.7 million increase from the prior year first quarter and reflective of the growth of the company, in particular our continued international expansion.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we sold one facility and an ancillary property resulting in a net gain of $1.0 million. In the first quarter of 2020, we sold four ancillary properties resulting in a net gain of $1.3 million. In addition, we made a $19.0 million adjustment to lower the carrying value of the real estate on certain assets previously leased to Adeptus and Alecto in the 2020 first quarter (see Note 3 to Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details).

Earnings from equity interests was $7.1 million for the first three months of 2021, up $3.0 million from the same period in 2020, primarily due to more income generated on our investment in Infracore, which we increased our share in during the 2020 fourth quarter.

Debt refinancing and unutilized financing costs were $2.3 million in the 2021 first quarter as a result of the early termination of our $900 million interim credit facility and the amendment to our Credit Facility (see Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more detail). In the first quarter of 2020, we incurred $0.6 million of accelerated commitment fee amortization expense associated with our GBP term loan facility.

In the first quarter of 2021, we recorded a favorable non-cash fair value adjustment of more than $4 million to mark our investment in Aevis Victoria SA stock to market. We acquired this stock as part of our overall Switzerland investment in May 2019.

28


This adjustment (reflected in the “Other” line of our condensed consolidated statements of net income) was a loss of more than $10 million in the prior year.

Income tax expense includes U.S. federal and state income taxes on our domestic TRS entities, as well as non-U.S. income based or withholding taxes on certain investments located in jurisdictions outside the U.S. The $8.4 million income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 is from the income generated by our investments in the United Kingdom, Colombia, and Australia, as well as income from lending activities of our domestic TRS entities. In comparison, we incurred a $4.0 million income tax expense in the first quarter of 2020. This increase in income tax expense is primarily related to higher foreign taxable income generated from investments made in 2020 and early 2021.

We utilize the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets are recorded to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, all available positive and negative evidence is considered, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent financial performance. Based upon our review of all positive and negative evidence, including our three-year cumulative pre-tax book loss position in certain entities, we concluded that a valuation allowance of approximately $38 million should be reflected against certain of our international and domestic net deferred tax assets at March 31, 2021. In the future, if we determine that it is more likely than not that we will realize our net deferred tax assets, we will reverse the applicable portion of the valuation allowance, recognize an income tax benefit in the period in which such determination is made, and incur higher income taxes in future periods as income is earned.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Investors and analysts following the real estate industry utilize funds from operations, or FFO, as a supplemental performance measure. FFO, reflecting the assumption that real estate asset values rise or fall with market conditions, principally adjusts for the effects of GAAP depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, which assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. We compute FFO in accordance with the definition provided by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or Nareit, which represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (losses) on sales of real estate and impairment charges on real estate assets, plus real estate depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

In addition to presenting FFO in accordance with the Nareit definition, we also disclose normalized FFO, which adjusts FFO for items that relate to unanticipated or non-core events or activities or accounting changes that, if not noted, would make comparison to prior period results and market expectations less meaningful to investors and analysts.

We believe that the use of FFO, combined with the required GAAP presentations, improves the understanding of our operating results among investors and the use of normalized FFO makes comparisons of our operating results with prior periods and other companies more meaningful. While FFO and normalized FFO are relevant and widely used supplemental measures of operating and financial performance of REITs, they should not be viewed as a substitute measure of our operating performance since the measures do not reflect either depreciation and amortization costs or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, which can be significant economic costs that could materially impact our results of operations. FFO and normalized FFO should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) as indicators of our financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of our liquidity.

Total Pro Forma Gross Assets

Pro forma gross assets is total assets before accumulated depreciation/amortization (adjusted for our unconsolidated joint ventures) and assumes all real estate commitments on new investments and unfunded amounts on development deals and commenced capital improvement projects as of the applicable reporting periods are fully funded, and assumes cash on hand is used in these transactions. We believe total pro forma gross assets is useful to investors as it provides a more current view of our portfolio and allows for a better understanding of our concentration levels as our commitments close and our other commitments are fully funded.

Adjusted revenue

Adjusted revenues are total revenues adjusted for our pro rata portion of similar revenues in our real estate joint venture arrangements. We believe adjusted revenue is useful to investors as it provides a more complete view of revenue across all of our investments and allows for better understanding of our revenue concentration.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

2021 Cash Flow Activity

During the 2021 first quarter, we generated approximately $188.7 million of cash flows from operating activities, primarily consisting of rent and interest from mortgage and other loans. We used these operating cash flows, along with $11 million received from Steward as a return of capital distribution, to fund our dividends of $147.7 million and certain investment activities. In addition, we invested approximately $1.8 billion in real estate and other assets, including the £1.1 billion Priory Group Transaction in January 2021 (as more fully described in Note 3 to Item 1 of this Form 10-Q), using a combination of cash on-hand generated from the $779.2 million of net proceeds from the sales of stock during the quarter, £500 million of proceeds from an interim credit facility, and proceeds from our revolving facility. In late March 2021, we issued £850 million of senior unsecured notes and used such proceeds to pay off our interim credit facility in full and reduce our revolving credit facility balance to less than $200 million outstanding.

Subsequent to quarter-end, we sold an additional 4.9 million shares under our at-the-market equity program, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $105.5 million, and received approximately $75 million from loan principal prepayments.

2020 Cash Flow Activity

During the 2020 first quarter, we generated $106.9 million of cash flows from operating activities, primarily consisting of rent and interest from mortgage and other loans. Operating cash flows for the 2020 first quarter did not include approximately $35 million of revenue earned on the new Circle/BMI transaction, as such rent was prepaid before the closing of the acquisition. We used our operating cash flows in the 2020 first quarter, along with approximately $63 million of distributions from our HM Hospitales joint venture investment in the form of a return of capital, to fund our dividends of $138.1 million and certain investing activities including the additional funding of our development activities. In addition, we funded the £1.5 billion Circle acquisition of 30 properties in January 2020 with a combination of cash on-hand and proceeds from the £700 million British pound sterling term loan.

Short-term Liquidity Requirements:

As of May 3, 2021, we have no debt principal payments due in the next twelve months — see debt maturity schedule below. In January 2021, we extended the maturity of our revolving credit facility to February 2024. At May 3, 2021, availability under our revolving credit facility plus cash on-hand approximated $1.8 billion. We believe this liquidity along with our current monthly cash receipts from rent and loan interest, regular distributions from our joint venture arrangements, approximately $400 million of availability under our at-the-market equity program, and approximately £250 million expected to be repaid by Waterland pursuant to the Priory acquisition loan is sufficient to fund our operations, dividends in order to comply with REIT requirements, and our current firm commitments and debt service obligations for the next twelve months.

Long-term Liquidity Requirements:

As of May 3, 2021, our liquidity approximates $1.8 billion and we believe our liquidity, along with our current monthly cash receipts from rent and loan interest, regular distributions from our joint venture arrangements, and approximately $400 million of availability under our at-the-market equity program, is sufficient to fund our operations, debt and interest obligations, our firm commitments, and dividends in order to comply with REIT requirements for the foreseeable future.

However, in order to fund additional investments, to fund debt maturities coming due starting in 2022 and beyond, or to strategically refinance any existing debt in order to reduce interest rates, we may need to access one or a combination of the following sources of capital:

 

sale of equity securities;

 

issuance of new USD, EUR, or GBP denominated debt securities, including senior unsecured notes;

 

entering into new bank term loans;

 

placing new secured loans on real estate located outside the U.S.; and/or

 

proceeds from strategic property sales or joint ventures.

However, there is no assurance that conditions will be favorable for such possible transactions (particularly in light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic) or that our plans will be successful.

Principal payments due on our debt (which exclude the effects of any discounts, premiums, or debt issue costs recorded) as of May 3, 2021 are as follows (in thousands):

We intend to pay to our stockholders, within the time periods prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”), all or substantially all of our annual taxable income, including taxable gains from the sale of real estate and recognized gains on the sale of securities. It is our policy to make sufficient cash distributions to stockholders in order for us to maintain our status as a REIT under the Code and to avoid corporate income and excise taxes on undistributed income. However, our Credit Facility limits the amount of dividends we can pay - see Note 4 in Item 1 to this Form 10-Q for further information.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices, and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. We seek to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in interest rates by matching the terms of new investments with new long-term fixed rate borrowings to the extent possible. We may or may not elect to use financial derivative instruments to hedge interest rate or foreign currency exposure. For interest rate hedging, these decisions are principally based on our policy to match investments with comparable borrowings, but are also based on the general trend in interest rates at the applicable dates and our perception of the future volatility of interest rates. For foreign currency hedging, these decisions are principally based on how our investments are financed, the long-term nature of our investments, the need to repatriate earnings back to the U.S., and the general trend in foreign currency exchange rates.

In addition, the value of our facilities will be subject to fluctuations based on changes in local and regional economic conditions and changes in the ability of our tenants to generate profits. The changes in the value of our facilities would be impacted also by changes in “cap” rates, which is measured by the current base rent divided by the current market value of a facility.

Our primary exposure to market risks relates to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency. The following analyses present the sensitivity of the market value, earnings, and cash flows of our significant financial instruments to hypothetical changes in interest rates and exchange rates as if these changes had occurred. The hypothetical changes chosen for these analyses reflect our view of changes that are reasonably possible over a one-year period. These forward looking disclosures are selective in nature and only address the potential impact from these hypothetical changes. They do not include other potential effects which could impact our business as a result of changes in market conditions (such as the impact caused by COVID-19). In addition, they do not include measures we may take to minimize our exposure such as entering into future interest rate swaps to hedge against interest rate increases on our variable rate debt.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

For fixed rate debt, interest rate changes affect the fair market value but do not impact net income to common stockholders or cash flows. Conversely, for floating rate debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the fair market value but do impact net income to common stockholders and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. At March 31, 2021, our outstanding debt totaled $10.0 billion, which consisted of fixed-rate debt of approximately $9.6 billion (after considering interest rate swaps in-place) and variable rate debt of $0.4 billion. If market interest rates increase by 1%, the fair value of our debt at March 31, 2021 would decrease by approximately $11.6 million. Changes in the fair value of our fixed rate debt will not have any impact on us unless we decided to repurchase the debt in the open market.

If market rates of interest on our variable rate debt increase by 1%, the increase in annual interest expense on our variable rate debt would decrease future earnings and cash flows by $0.1 million per year. If market rates of interest on our variable rate debt decrease by 1%, the decrease in interest expense on our variable rate debt would increase future earnings and cash flows by $0.1 million per year. This assumes that the average amount outstanding under our variable rate debt for a year is $0.4 billion, the balance of such variable rate debt at March 31, 2021.

Foreign Currency Sensitivity

With our investments in the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Switzerland, Australia, and Colombia, we are subject to fluctuations in the British pound, euro, Swiss franc, Australian dollar, and Colombian peso to U.S. dollar currency exchange rates. Although we generally deem investments in these countries to be of a long-term nature, are able to match any non-U.S. dollar borrowings with investments in such currencies, and historically have not needed to repatriate a material amount of earnings back to the U.S., increases or decreases in the value of the respective non-U.S. dollar currencies to U.S. dollar exchange rates may impact our financial condition and/or our results of operations. Based solely on our 2021 operating results and on an annualized basis, a 5% change to the following exchange rates would have impacted our net income and FFO by the amounts below (in thousands):

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Medical Properties Trust, Inc. and MPT Operating Partnership, L.P.

We have adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b), under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, we have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
