Sonida Senior Living Announces Third Quarter 2026 Results

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--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 third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

“Our third quarter results demonstrate the strength of the operating platform we have built and the quality of our real estate portfolio, with continued occupancy growth translating into meaningful margin expansion and NOI growth,” said Brandon Ribar, President and Chief Executive Officer of Sonida Senior Living. “As we advance the CHP integration and announce additional acquisitions, we are increasingly focused on leveraging our proven operating playbook, culture, and leadership team across a larger, higher-quality portfolio. With significant runway remaining across the portfolio, we believe these efforts position Sonida to deliver sustained earnings growth and create long-term value for shareholders.”

Third Quarter 2026 Highlights

  • Net loss attributable to common shareholders of $34.3 million, or $(0.72) per share.
  • Normalized Funds from Operations (“FFO”) of $23.1 million, or $0.46 per share.
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $46.8 million, an increase of 26.2% over Adjusted EBITDA (pro forma) for Q3 2025.
  • Same-Store SHOP Net Operating Income (“NOI”) of $52.0 million, an increase of 15.6% compared to prior year on a pro forma basis.
  • Same-Store weighted average occupancy of 88.6% and RevPOR of $5,413, representing increases of 200 basis points and 4.6%, respectively, from the same pro forma measures in prior year.

Acquisitions

During September 2026, the Company acquired one senior living community, consisting of 107 units located in Florida for a purchase price of $14.7 million and transaction costs of $0.1 million.

In October 2026, the Company purchased six communities in three separate acquisitions with an aggregate purchase price totaling $135.5 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On August 7, 2026 the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement with Ally Bank (“Ally”) which provides up to $380 million in borrowings (“Ally Term Loan”). At closing, the Company drew $372.5 million on the Ally Term Loan which has delayed draw commitments for an additional $7.5 million available subject to achieving certain debt yields and debt service coverages ratios. The loan proceeds were used to fully repay the previous $122 million term loan with Ally and to repay in full the $170 million outstanding under the Bridge Facility, with the remaining net proceeds used to pay down $70 million on the senior secured revolving credit facility. The loan has a five-year maturity with two one-year extension options and an interest rate of SOFR plus 185 basis points. The Ally Term Loan is secured by 28 of the Company’s communities. In connection with the repayment of the Bridge Facility, the Company recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $4.4 million for the unamortized deferred loan costs on the Bridge Facility for the three months ended September 30, 2026.

On May 18, 2026, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement with several sales agents, whereby the Company may sell, at its option, shares of its common stock up to an aggregate offering price of $250.0 million (the “ATM Program”). During the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company sold 971,732 shares of common stock pursuant to its ATM Program at a weighted average price of $40.74 per share for $39.2 million in net proceeds. In October 2026, the Company sold 780,000 shares of common stock pursuant to its ATM Program at a weighted average price of $37.25 per share for $28.8 million in net proceeds.

In addition to $148.1 million of unrestricted cash as of September 30, 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, and proceeds from equity offerings. These transactions are expected to provide additional financial flexibility to us and increase our liquidity position.

DEFINITIONS

At-Share is defined by the Company as information presented on a basis that reflects the Company's proportional economic stake in the assets or financial metrics of a joint venture (“JV”). For the periods presented, includes Stone JV (32.71% ownership share) and Palatine JV (51% ownership share).

Available Units is defined by the Company as all units that are part of the corresponding portfolio, excluding those that were out of service for the named period. Available Units is provided on a weighted average basis, unless otherwise indicated, and used in the calculation of RevPAR and Weighted Average Occupancy.

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 period in each of the comparison years, (ii) sold or classified as held for sale or (iii) 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. Communities will be included in the Same-Store Portfolio once operating under normal course operating structures for the current period and comparable prior year period. The Non Same-Store Portfolio includes applicable CHP SHOP communities as if they were owned by the Company at the beginning of the applicable period.

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. The RevPOR calculation does not include rental income. Our management uses RevPOR for decision making, and we believe the measure provides useful information to investors, because it reflects the average amount of resident revenue we derive from an occupied unit per month without factoring occupancy rates. 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 period in each of the comparison years and not otherwise included in the Non Same-Store Portfolio. 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) and communities that were undergoing strategic repositioning during the comparison periods. The Same-Store Portfolio includes applicable CHP SHOP communities as if they were owned by the Company at the beginning of the applicable period.

Senior Housing/ 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 NNN lease 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.

Weighted Average Occupancy is defined by the Company as the percentage of the weighted average number of Available Units in the owned portfolio being utilized by residents over a reporting period. Our management uses Weighted Average Occupancy for decision making and components of executive compensation, and we believe the measure provides useful information to investors, because it is a significant driver of our resident revenue performance.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This release contains the financial measures (1) Net Operating Income, (2) Net Operating Income Margin, (3) Adjusted EBITDA, (4) Nareit Funds from Operations, and (5) Normalized Funds from Operations and Normalized Funds from Operations per share, 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. 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.

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, third-party property management fees, management fee income, rental income, 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, long-lived asset impairment, gain or loss on extinguishment of debt, loss from equity method investment, casualty loss, non-recurring settlement fees, income tax, and personal property tax. Net Operating Income Margin is calculated by dividing Net Operating Income by resident revenue. The Company provides these non-GAAP measures for its owned portfolios as indicated and presents these non-GAAP measures on an At-Share basis as indicated. In addition, periods presented in which we did not own CHP during the full period include an adjustment representing the impact to NOI and NOI Margin from CHP (calculated on the same basis as the Company) for the applicable period as if the Company had acquired CHP on the first day of such period.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP performance measure that the Company defines as net income (loss) excluding: depreciation and amortization expense, interest income, interest expense, other expense/income, provision for income taxes, 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 stock-based compensation expense, provision for credit losses, long-lived asset impairment, gain or loss on extinguishment of debt, casualty losses, and transaction, transition and restructuring costs. The Company also presents this non-GAAP measure on an At-Share basis. In addition, periods presented in which we did not own CHP during the full period include an adjustment representing the impact to Adjusted EBITDA from CHP (calculated on the same basis as the Company) for the applicable period as if the Company had acquired CHP on the first day of such period.

The Company believes that the 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 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, Net Operating Income Margin and Adjusted EBITDA have material limitations as performance measures, including the exclusion of certain expenses that are necessary to operate the Company and oversee its communities. Furthermore, such non-GAAP financial measures 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.

Funds from operations, established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit” and “Nareit FFO”), is a non-GAAP performance measure the Company uses which is defined as net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders (calculated in accordance with GAAP) excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and 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, and after adjustments for noncontrolling interests and unconsolidated entities following the same approach.

Normalized FFO is a non-GAAP performance measure that, for the periods presented herein, the Company defines as Nareit FFO excluding other income/expense, transaction, transition and restructuring costs, stock-based compensation expense related to CHP merger, casualty losses, non-recurring settlement fees, gain or loss on extinguishment of debt, gains and losses on derivatives, non-cash interest expense, certain other normalized items, and after adjustments for noncontrolling interests and unconsolidated entities following the same approach. Normalized FFO per share is calculated by dividing Normalized FFO by total weighted average diluted shares outstanding.

Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminish predictably over time. However, since real estate values historically have 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 Nareit FFO and Normalized FFO to be appropriate supplemental measures of operating performance.

Nareit FFO and Normalized Funds from Operations have material limitations as performance measures, including the exclusion of 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 incur income/expense similar to those for which adjustments are made, and such income/expense may significantly affect our operating results.

NET OPERATING INCOME AND NET OPERATING INCOME MARGIN (UNAUDITED)

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 loss for the periods indicated:

PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

On March 11, 2026, we completed our previously announced acquisition of CHP through a series of steps ending with a forward merger of CHP with and into a subsidiary of the Company (the “CHP Merger”), with such subsidiary surviving the CHP Merger, as a result of which we now indirectly own all of the assets of CHP.

For periods presented in which we did not own CHP during the full period, we present certain historical measures during our earnings call and in this earnings release on a “pro forma” basis as if the CHP Merger was consummated on the first day of the applicable period presented, as we believe such historical pro forma information provides investors with useful information about the combined business and a meaningful method of comparing the performance of the combined business over historical periods. The historical pro forma information is being presented for informational purposes only and does not reflect the actual results we would have achieved had the CHP Merger occurred on the first day of the applicable period and may not be predictive of future results.

The historical CHP information used to prepare the historical pro forma information included herein is based on CHP’s books and records and, in certain cases, has been adjusted to conform to the Company’s presentation of certain metrics. For example, for NOI, NOI Margin and Adjusted EBITDA, we have included pro forma adjustments representing the impact of CHP as if we acquired CHP on the first day of the applicable period. These pro forma adjustments were calculated on the same basis as the Company calculates NOI, NOI Margin and Adjusted EBITDA. Accordingly, to the extent standalone CHP information is presented herein for historical periods it may not conform to similar information previously disclosed by CHP in its SEC filings prior to the consummation of the CHP Merger.

We believe that the historical pro forma information represents a reasonable estimate of the results of the combined business for the periods preceding the consummation of the CHP Merger; however, the pro forma information has not been audited. Further, the historical pro forma information does not reflect the cost of any integration activities or benefits from the CHP Merger that may be derived, both of which may have a material effect on our consolidated results in periods following completion of the CHP Merger. As a result, there can be no assurance that the historical pro forma information accurately reflects the actual results of the combined business for the periods preceding the consummation of the CHP Merger.

The historical “pro forma” information presented during our earnings call and herein should not be viewed as a substitute for consolidated financial results presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) or pro forma financial statements prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. Please refer to our consolidated financial statements in our Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 5, 2026 for our actual historical results presented in accordance with GAAP for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 and our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 17, 2026 for our actual pro forma combined results prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X for the year ended December 31, 2025 and the six months ended June 30, 2026.

Our independent registered public accounting firm has not audited, reviewed, compiled or applied agreed-upon procedures with respect to the historical combined information included herein and does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto.
