First Choice ER Bankruptcy and Net Lease Investments

First Choice ER Bankruptcy and Net Lease Investments

 

2014: Adeptus, holding Company for First Choice ER, Goes Public: -Dallas Business Journal Link-

    • CRE Buyers line up to purchase single-tenant, net-leased buildings leased to First Choice ER because the tenant is “publicly traded”. 

 

 

·         2015-16

    • My research always left me scratching my head.
      • Base rental rates were $50-$60/sf +NNN; which was often double the local market base rent.
    • I was told by zealous sales agents that I wasn’t factoring in the strength of a publicly traded tenant.
    • I posed the question of what would happen IF the tenant filed bankruptcy, or went out of business since the base rent was SO much higher than market.
      • I was constantly told that ERs weren’t going away…
      • They were ridiculously profitable,
      • The $60/sf base rent included LARGE, specialized tenant improvement (TI) funds paid by Landlord, that were amortized back into payments as rent.
      • Typically, the Developer rolled the TI payments into the base rent, and then sold the Property to a single-tenant, net-leased Investor, who paid a price based on a cap rate reversion whose foundation was the inflated Net Operating Income (NOI).
        • I sensed problems on horizon…
  • 2017:
    • Adeptus prepares to file for bankruptcy. -newslink-
    • Adeptus publicly traded stock has gone from $122 per share to $.90 per share.
      • You read that right.
      • Medical Properties Trust seeks to acquire Adeptus assets/leases in bankruptcy.
  • Update: Medical Properties Trust Agrees to Bankruptcy Restructuring of Adeptus Health, Adeptus Cuts Losses
      • Leases are being assumed, restructured, and some sites are going have lease payments revised to a 9.2% cap rate.
      • For those Investors who bought at sub-5% cap rates---trouble looms.

ACTION ITEM:

Make Sure you evaluate your acquisitions to see if they make sense in light of market, or sub-market rents.
