ADCARE HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 and 2014

NOTE 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

See Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 , filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 31, 2015 (the "Annual Report"), for a description of all significant accounting policies.

Description of Business

AdCare Health Systems, Inc. (“AdCare”) and its controlled subsidiaries (collectively with AdCare, the “Company” ) own, operate and manage for third-parties skilled nursing and assisted living facilities in the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma and South Carolina.

In July 2014, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had approved a strategic plan to transition the Company to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions, the Company is in the process of transition to third-parties the operations of the Company’s currently owned and operated healthcare facilities, which are principally skilled nursing facilities. In furtherance of this strategic plan, the Company is now focused on the ownership, acquisition and leasing of healthcare related properties.

As of March 31, 2015 , the Company operated or managed 31 facilities comprised of 28 skilled nursing facilities, two assisted living facilities and one independent living/senior housing facility totaling approximately 3,300 beds. The Company’s facilities provide a range of health care services to their patients and residents including skilled nursing and assisted living services, social services, various therapy services, and other rehabilitative and healthcare services for both long-term residents and short-stay patients. As of March 31, 2015 , of the total 31 facilities, the Company owned and operated 22 facilities, leased and operated six facilities, and managed three facilities for third-parties.

As of March 31, 2015 , the Company also leased three owned and subleased five leased skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities to local third-party operators in the states of Alabama and Georgia.

On March 31, 2014, the Company executed a representation agreement to sell Companions Specialized Care Center ("Companions"), a 102 -bed skilled nursing facility located in Tulsa, Oklahoma. This facility is reported as discontinued operations (see Note 10 - Discontinued Operations and Note 15 - Subsequent Events ).

During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , the Company entered into certain leasing and operations transfer agreements for facilities located in Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina (see Note 7 - Leases for a full description of such leases).

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Article 8 of Regulations S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Changes to GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 , are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year. The balance sheet at December 31, 2014 , has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

You should read these consolidated financial statements together with the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in the Annual Report.

Table of Contents

The Company operates in one business segment. These statements include the accounts of AdCare Health Systems, Inc. and its controlled subsidiaries. Controlled subsidiaries include AdCare’s majority owned subsidiaries and one variable interest entity (a "VIE") in which AdCare has control as primary beneficiary. All inter-company accounts and transactions were eliminated in the consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported results of operations during the reporting period. Examples of significant estimates include allowance for doubtful accounts, contractual allowances for Medicaid, Medicare, and managed care reimbursements, deferred tax valuation allowance, fair value of derivative instruments, fair value of employee and nonemployee stock based awards, and valuation of goodwill and other long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain items previously reported in the consolidated financial statement captions have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation with no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. These reclassifications did not affect total assets, total liabilities, or stockholders’ equity. Reclassifications were made to the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 to reflect the same facilities in discontinued operations for both periods presented.

Revenue Recognition and Patient Care Receivables

The Company recognizes revenue when the following four conditions have been met: (i) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred or service has been rendered; (iii) the price is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collection is reasonably assured. The Company's revenue is derived primarily from providing healthcare services to residents and is recognized on the date services are provided at amounts billable to the individual. For reimbursement arrangements with third-party payors, including Medicaid, Medicare and private insurers, revenue is recorded based on contractually agreed-upon amounts on a per patient, daily basis.

Revenue from the Medicaid and Medicare programs accounted for 83.8% of the Company’s revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 , and 84.5% of the Company's revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014 . The Company records revenue from these governmental and managed care programs as services are performed at their expected net realizable amounts under these programs. The Company’s revenue from governmental and managed care programs is subject to audit and retroactive adjustment by governmental and third-party agencies. Consistent with healthcare industry accounting practices, any changes to these governmental revenue estimates are recorded in the period the change or adjustment becomes known. The Company recorded retroactive adjustments to revenue which were not material to the Company's consolidated revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 .

Potentially uncollectible patient accounts are provided for on the allowance method based upon management's evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable at period-end and historical experience. Uncollected accounts that are written off are charged against allowance. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company has an allowance for uncollectible accounts of $7.7 million and $6.7 million , respectively.

Management Fee Revenues and Receivables

Management fee revenues and receivables are recorded in the month that services are provided. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company evaluated collectibility of management fees and determined that no allowance was required.

Rental Revenues and Receivables

The Company, as lessor, makes a determination with respect to each of its leases whether they should be accounted for as operating leases. The Company recognizes rental revenues on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease when collectibility is reasonably assured. Differences between rental income earned and amounts due under the lease are charged or credited, as applicable, to straight-line rent receivable, net. Payments received under operating leases are accounted for in the statements of operations as rental revenue for actual rent collected plus or minus a straight-line adjustment for estimated minimum lease escalators. As of March 31, 2015 and 2014 , the Company evaluated collectibility of rental revenue and determined that no allowance was required.

Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments

Accounting guidance establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1— Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2— Other observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data

Level 3— Significant unobservable inputs

The respective carrying value of certain financial instruments of the Company approximates their fair value. These instruments include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments, accounts receivable, notes receivable, notes payable and other debt, and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments because they are short-term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values, they are receivable or payable on demand, or the interest rates earned and/or paid approximate current market rates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Except for rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws and a limited number of grandfathered standards, the FASB ASC is the sole source of authoritative GAAP literature recognized by the FASB and applicable to the Company. The Company has reviewed the FASB accounting pronouncements and ASU interpretations that have effectiveness dates during the periods reported and in future periods.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08 that amends the definition of a discontinued operation to include only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. This ASU should be applied prospectively and is effective for the Company for the 2015 annual and interim periods. Early adoption is permitted for disposals that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued. The Company has adopted this ASU as of March 31, 2015.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 guidance requiring revenue to be recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods and services. The guidance requires the disclosure of sufficient quantitative and qualitative information for financial statement users to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and associated cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption precluded. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15 guidance regarding an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, which requires management to assess a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. Before this new standard, there was minimal guidance in GAAP specific to going concern. Under the new standard, disclosures are required when conditions give rise to substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the financial statement issuance date. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption permitted. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03 guidance regarding debt issuance costs as a part of the simplification and productivity initiative. Under this guidance, debt issuance costs will be presented as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability, consistent with the presentation of debt discounts. The amortization of debt issuance costs will be reported as interest expense. The new guidance is to be applied on a retrospective basis and reported as a change in an accounting principle. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company is currently evaluating changes in its accounting required by this new guidance and the impact to the Company's financial position, results of operations and related disclosures.

NOTE 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share except net income or loss is adjusted for potentially dilutive securities, such as options, warrants, non-vested shares, and additional shares issuable under subordinated convertible promissory notes outstanding during the period when such potentially dilutive securities are not anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities from options, warrants and unvested restricted shares are calculated in accordance with the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive securities from subordinated convertible promissory notes are calculated based on the assumed issuance at the beginning of the period, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from their assumed issuance. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 , potentially dilutive securities of 7.0 million and 9.1 million , respectively, were excluded from the diluted income (loss) per share calculation because including them would have been anti-dilutive in both periods.

The following tables provide a reconciliation of net income (loss) for continuing and discontinued operations and the number of shares of common stock used in the computation of both basic and diluted earnings per share:

NOTE 3. LIQUIDITY AND PROFITABILITY

Sources of Liquidity

At March 31, 2015 , the Company had $10.7 million in cash and cash equivalents as well as restricted cash and investments of $8.1 million . Over the next 12 months, the Company anticipates both access to and receipt of several sources of liquidity.

At March 31, 2015 , the Company had one facility, three office buildings and one variable interest entity held for sale that the Company anticipates selling in 2015. The Company expects that the cash proceeds and the release of restricted cash on the sale of the variable interest entity and the sale of the one facility will approximate the related obligations. The Company expects that the cash proceeds from the sale of the office buildings will exceed related obligations by approximately $0.6 million .

The Company routinely has ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, has refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs.

During the remainder of 2015, the Company anticipates net proceeds of approximately $2.7 million on refinancing of existing debt, primarily in the second and third quarters of 2015. Further, the Company estimates cash flow from operations and other working capital changes of approximately $1.5 million for the year ending December 31, 2015 .

The Company maintains certain revolving lines of credit for which the Company has limited remaining capacity and all of which are due and expected to be repaid in 2015. Given the Company's ongoing transition out of healthcare operations, the Company does not anticipate any additional draws on these facilities.

On March 31, 2015 , the Company entered into subscription agreements with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company accepted subscriptions for an aggregate of $8.5 million in principal amount of the Company’s 10% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due April 30, 2017 (the "2015 Notes"). In connection therewith, the Company received net cash proceeds for working capital of approximately $1.7 million on March 31, 2015, and approximately $6.0 million on April 30, 2015 (see Note 9 – Notes Payable and Other Debt and Note 15 - Subsequent Events ).

On April 13, 2015 , the Company issued and sold 575,000 shares of its Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock") at a public offering price of $25.75 per share in a "best-efforts" underwritten registered public offering. In connection therewith, the Company received net cash proceeds of approximately $13.5 million (see Note 15 – Subsequent Events ).

Other liquidity sources include to a lesser extent, the proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants.

Cash Requirements

At March 31, 2015 , the Company had $151.8 million in indebtedness of which the current portion is $29.7 million . This current portion is comprised of the following components: (i) convertible debt of approximately $8.3 million ; (ii) debt of held for sale entities of approximately $12.1 million , primarily senior debt - bond and mortgage indebtedness; and (iii) remaining debt of approximately $9.3 million which includes revolver debt, senior debt - bonds, and senior debt - mortgage indebtedness (for a complete debt listing and credit facility detail, see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt ).

The convertible debt includes two subordinated convertible debt issuances. One was issued in 2012 (the “2012 Notes”) and has an outstanding principal amount of $7.5 million at March 31, 2015 with maturity on July 31, 2015 . At any time on or after the six-month anniversary of the date of issuance of the 2012 Notes, they are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price equal to $3.97 per share (adjusted for a 5% stock dividend paid on October 22, 2012 , and subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar events). The other was issued in 2014 (the “2014 Notes”) and has an outstanding principal amount of $0.8 million at March 31, 2015 with maturity on April 30, 2015 . At any time on or after the date of issuance of the 2014 Notes, they are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the common stock at an initial conversion price equal to $4.50 per share, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar events.

On March 31, 2015 , the Company entered into subscription agreements with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company accepted subscriptions for an aggregate of $8.5 million in principal amount of the 2015 Notes. In connection therewith, the Company issued approximately $1.7 million in principal amount of 2015 Notes on March 31, 2015 and approximately $6.0 million on April 30, 2015 (see Note 15 - Subsequent Events ).

Table of Contents

The current debt maturing in 2015 for all other debt approximates $9.3 million . As indicated previously, the Company routinely has ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, has refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs. The Company anticipates net principal disbursements of approximately $6.8 million which reflect the offset of anticipated proceeds on refinancing of approximately $2.5 million .

The Company anticipates operating cash requirements in 2015 as being substantially less than in 2014 due to the transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Based on the described sources of liquidity and related cash requirements, the Company expects sufficient funds for its operations, scheduled debt service, and capital expenditures at least through the next 12 months. On a longer term basis, at March 31, 2015 , the Company has approximately $67.3 million of debt maturities due over the next two year period ending March 31, 2017 , excluding convertible promissory notes which are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock. The Company has been successful in recent years in raising new equity capital and believes, based on recent discussions, that these markets will continue to be available to us for raising capital in 2015 and beyond. The Company believes its long-term liquidity needs will be satisfied by these same sources, as well as borrowings as required to refinance indebtedness.

In order to satisfy the Company's capital needs, the Company seeks to: (i) improve operating results through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions with favorable terms and consistent and predictable cash flow; (ii) expand borrowing arrangements with certain lenders; (iii) refinance current debt where possible to obtain more favorable terms; and (iv) raise capital through the issuance of debt or equity securities. The Company anticipates that these actions, if successful, will provide the opportunity to maintain liquidity on a short and long term basis, thereby permitting the Company to meet our operating and financing obligations for the next twelve months. However, there is no guarantee that such actions will be successful or that anticipated operating results or the transition of the Company to primarily a property holding and leasing company will be achieved. The Company currently has limited borrowing availability under our existing revolving credit facilities.

NOTE 7. LEASES

Operating Leases

The Company leases certain office space and a total of eleven skilled nursing facilities under non-cancelable operating leases, most of which have initial lease terms of ten to twelve years with rent escalation clauses and provisions for payments by the Company of real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs; six of the skilled nursing facilities that are leased are operated by the Company. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 , facility rent expense totaled $1.9 million and $1.7 million , respectively. Total facility rent expense excludes $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 that is recognized in Loss from Discontinued Operations, net of tax.

Eight of the Company's skilled nursing facilities are operated under a single master indivisible lease arrangement, dated August 1, 2010 , with William M. Foster as landlord (the "Prime Lease"). The lease has a term of ten years into 2020. Under the Prime Lease, a breach at a single facility could subject one or more of the other facilities covered by the same master lease to the same default risk. Failure to comply with regulations or governmental authorities, such as Medicaid and Medicare provider requirements, is a default under the Prime Lease. In addition, other potential defaults related to an individual facility may cause a default of the entire Prime Lease. With an indivisible lease, it is difficult to restructure the composition of the portfolio or economic terms of the lease without the consent of the landlord. The Company is not aware of any defaults and believes it is in compliance with the covenants of the Prime Lease as of March 31, 2015 .

Two of the Company's facilities are operated under a single indivisible lease; therefore, a breach at a single facility could subject the second facility to the same default risk. The lease has an initial term of twelve years into 2022 and two optional ten -year renewal terms, and includes covenants and restrictions. The Company is required to make minimum capital expenditures of $375 per licensed bed per lease year at each facility which amounts to $0.1 million per year for both facilities. As of March 31, 2015 , the Company is in compliance with all financial and administrative covenants of this lease agreement.

Table of Contents

Future minimum lease payments for each of the next five years ending December 31 , are as follows:



	(Amounts in 000's)
2015 ^(a)	$	5,113
2016	6,688
2017	6,593
2018	6,539
2019	6,060
Thereafter	6,637
Total	$	37,630

^(a) Estimated minimum lease payments for the year ending December 31, 2015 include only payments to be recorded after March 31, 2015 .

The Company has also entered into lease agreements for various equipment used in the facilities. These leases are included in future minimum lease payments above.

Leased and Subleased Facilities to Third-Party Operators

In connection with both the Company's strategic plan to transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company and previous leasing and subleasing opportunities, the operations of eight facilities, three owned by us and five leased to us, have been transferred to third-party skilled nursing facility operators as of March 31, 2015 . The lease and sublease agreements provide current and future rental revenues. These properties are leased and subleased on a triple net basis, meaning that the lessee ( i.e ., the new third-party operator of the property) is obligated under the lease or sublease, as applicable, for all liabilities of the property in respect to insurance, taxes and facility maintenance, as well as the lease or sublease payments, as applicable. For further details regarding the Company's leased and subleased facilities to third-party operators, see Note 15 - Subsequent Events in this Quarterly Report and Note 7 - Leases included in the Annual Report.

Arkansas Leases

On January 16, 2015, ten wholly-owned subsidiaries (each, an “Aria Sublessor”) of the Company entered into separate sublease agreements pursuant to which each Aria Sublessor leased one of ten skilled nursing facilities located in Arkansas, and owned by a subsidiary of AdCare, to an affiliate of Aria Health Group, LLC (each, an "Aria Sublessee"), which subleases were originally scheduled to commence on March 1, 2015, subject to, among other things: (i) such Aria Sublessee’s receipt of all licenses and other approvals from the State of Arkansas to operate such facility; and (ii) approval of the mortgage lender with respect to such facility. Each sublease agreement is structured as triple net lease wherein the Aria Sublessee is responsible for the day-to-day operation, ongoing maintenance, taxes and insurance for the duration of the sublease.

On April 30, 2015, the Company entered into a Lease Inducement Fee Agreement with Aria Health Consulting, LLC. The Lease Inducement Fee Agreement provides for a one-time payment from the Company to Aria Health Consulting, LLC equal to $2.0 million minus the security deposits and first month's base and special rent for all Aria Sublessees. On April 30, 2015, in connection with the Aria Lease Inducement Fee Agreement, the remaining eight sublease agreements were amended to, among other things, provide that the Aria Sublessees shall, collectively, pay to the Aria Sublessors special rent in the amount of $29,500 per month payable in advance on or before the first day of each month (except for the first special rent payment, which shall be subtracted from the lease inducement fee paid by the Company under the Lease Inducement Fee Agreement).

On April 30, 2015, two Aria Sublessors entered into separate sublease termination agreements with two Aria Sublessees, pursuant to which each Aria Sublessor and Aria Sublessee mutually agreed to terminate two of the separate sublease agreements previously entered into on January 16, 2015. The remaining eight sublease agreements commenced on May 1, 2015 (see Note 15 - Subsequent Events ). In connection with entering into the sublease agreements, each Aria Sublessor and Aria Sublessee also entered into an operations transfer agreement with respect to the applicable facility, each containing customary terms and conditions relating to the transfer of operations of the skilled nursing facilities.

aggregate, exclusive of any equitable adjustment, and the annual base rent under each sublease will escalate at 2% each year through the initial term and 3% per year upon renewal. The sublease agreements are cross-defaulted. On February 27, 2015 and March 31, 2015, the sublease agreements with the Aria Sublessees were amended to extend the commencement date of the subleases to April 1, 2015, and May 1, 2015, respectively.

Georgia Leases

On January 31, 2015 , a wholly-owned subsidiary (“Wellington Sublessor”) of the Company entered into separate sublease agreements pursuant to which Wellington Sublessor leased two skilled nursing facilities located in Georgia, to affiliates of Wellington Health Services, L.L.C (each a "Wellington Sublessee"). Each sublease agreement was subject to, among other things, each Wellington Sublessee's receipt of all licenses and other approvals from the State of Georgia to operate such facility. The subleases commenced on April 1, 2015 . The facilities are currently leased by Wellington Sublessor, as tenant, pursuant to the Prime Lease. Each sublease agreement is structured as triple net lease wherein the Wellington Sublessee is responsible for the day-to-day operation, ongoing maintenance, taxes and insurance for the duration of the sublease. The initial term of each sublease agreement will expire on July 31, 2020 coterminous with the Prime Lease. If Wellington Sublessor and landlord agree to extend the term of the Prime Lease, Wellington Sublessee has the right to extend the term of the sublease agreements through the end of the renewal term of the Prime Lease. The annual rent under the two sublease agreements in the first year will be $3.9 million in the aggregate, and the annual rent under each sublease will escalate at 1% each year through the initial term and 2% per year through the renewal term, if any. The sublease agreements are cross-defaulted. In connection with the sublease agreements, the current licensed operators (wholly-owned subsidiaries of Wellington Sublessor) and the Wellington Sublessees also entered into operations transfer agreements with respect to the applicable facility, containing customary terms and conditions relating to the transfer of operations of skilled nursing facilities.

On February 18, 2015 , a wholly-owned subsidiary (“College Park Sublessor”) of the Company entered into separate sublease agreements pursuant to which College Park Sublessor leased one skilled nursing facility located in Georgia, to affiliates of C.R. of College Park, LLC (the "College Park Sublessee"). The sublease agreement was subject to, among other things, the College Park Sublessee's receipt of all licenses and other approvals from the State of Georgia to operate such facility. The sublease agreement is structured as triple net lease wherein the College Park Sublessee is responsible for the day-to-day operation, ongoing maintenance, taxes and insurance for the duration of the sublease. The initial term of the sublease agreement will expire on April 30, 2020 and has a five year renewal option. The annual rent under the sublease agreement in the first year will approximate $0.6 million annually, and the annual rent will escalate at $12 thousand annually through the lease term.

Stock Incentive Plans

The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model for estimating the fair values of employee share options, employee and nonemployee warrants and similar instruments with the following key assumptions:

Expected Dividend Yield: The Company has not historically paid cash dividends on its common stock.

Expected Volatility: The Company estimates the expected volatility factor using the Company's historical stock price volatility.

Risk-Free Interest Rate: The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant or warrant for the period of the expected term as described.

Expected Term: The Company currently uses a simplified method for calculating the expected term based on the historical exercises of employee options and warrants and contractual expiration dates. For nonemployee warrants awarded to certain service providers or financing partners, the Company uses the contractual life of the warrants as the expected term, as the Company does not have sufficient experience with the service providers or financing partners to determine when they could be expected to exercise their warrants.

No stock options or warrants were issued during the three months ended March 31, 2015 .

The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of employee common stock options and warrants granted during the three months ended March 31, 2014 , using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model are set forth in the following table:

NOTE 12. . VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY

As further described in Note 15 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 , the Company has one variable interest entity, Riverchase Village ADK, LLC ("Riverchase") that is required to be consolidated because AdCare has control as primary beneficiary. A “primary beneficiary” is the party that has both of the following characteristics: (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

On March 3, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a letter agreement, dated as of February 28, 2014 (the "Letter Agreement"). On May 15, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an Amendment to the Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement First Amendment”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay $92,323 (the “Tax Payment”) to the appropriate governmental authorities of Jefferson County, Alabama, such amount representing outstanding real property taxes due on the Riverchase Village facility. The Company determined that it was in its best interest to make the Tax Payment in order to preserve the Company’s interest in the sale of the Riverchase Village facility. In connection with the Tax Payment, the parties also agreed to amend and restate the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon in favor of the Company to reflect a new principal amount of $615,986 , which amount represents the original principal amount of the note plus the Tax Payment. Furthermore, the Letter Agreement First Amendment amended the Letter Agreement to provide that, if the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility does not occur on or before December 31, 2014, then a payment of principal under the amended and restated promissory note equal to the Tax Payment will be due and payable to the Company on or before January 31, 2015.

On October 10, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a second amendment to the Letter Agreement, as amended (the “Letter Agreement Second Amendment”), with Mr. Brogdon and entities controlled by Mr. Brogdon, pursuant to which the Company reduced the principal amount of the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon by the amount equal to $92,323 (which represents the amount of the Tax Payment) plus $255,000 (which represents an offset of amounts owed by the Company to Mr. Brogdon under his consulting agreement with the Company). See “-Consulting Agreement.”

The Letter Agreement Second Amendment also amended the Letter Agreement, as amended, to provide that upon the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility to a third party purchaser, the net sales proceeds from such sale shall be distributed so that any net sales proceeds shall first be paid to the Company to satisfy the $177,323 outstanding under the note issued by Riverchase to the Company, which note is discussed below.

On March 25, 2015, AdCare and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a third amendment to the Letter Agreement, as amended (the “Letter Agreement Third Amendment”), with Mr. Brogdon and entities controlled by him, pursuant to which Riverchase and

Table of Contents

the Company agreed to amend the promissory notes issued by Riverchase to the Company to: (i) increase the principal amount due under the promissory note issued by Riverchase to the Company by any additional real property tax payments made by the Company with respect to Riverchase Village, a 105 -bed assisted living facility located in Hoover, Alabama and owned by Riverchase and (ii) to state that such promissory note would not bear interest.

The Letter Agreement Third Amendment amended the Letter Agreement to provide a schedule for the payment to the Company of the net sales proceeds resulting from a sale of the Riverchase Village facility to a third-party purchaser. The net sales proceeds from such sale shall be distributed to the Company as follows: (i) an amount sufficient to satisfy all amounts due and owing under the promissory note issued by Riverchase to the Company; (ii) one-half of the then remaining net sales proceeds; (iii) an amount sufficient to satisfy the amounts due and owing under the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon to the Company; and (iv) the then remaining balance of net sales proceeds.

AdCare is a guarantor of Riverchase’s obligations with respect to certain revenue bonds issued by the City of Hoover in connection with the Riverchase Village facility, and in order to preserve the Company's interest in the sale of the Riverchase Village facility, the Company made a payment in the amount of $85,000 (the "Principal Obligation") on behalf of Riverchase with respect to its obligations under the bonds. On October 10, 2014, Riverchase issued a promissory note in favor of the Company in the principal amount of $177,323 , which represented the amount of a $92,323 tax payment plus the Principal Obligation. The note does not bear interest and is due upon the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility.

In connection with the Letter Agreement Third Amendment on March 25, 2015, the Company and Mr. Brogdon agreed to amend the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon to the Company. Pursuant to this amendment, the principal balance plus any accrued interest under the promissory note issued by Mr. Brogdon to the Company shall be due and payable on the earlier of: (i) December 31, 2015; or (ii) the closing of the sale of the Riverchase Village facility.

The following summarizes the assets and liabilities of the variable interest entity included in the consolidated balance sheets:

NOTE 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Regulatory Matters

Laws and regulations governing federal Medicare and state Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation. Compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future governmental review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action including fines, penalties, and exclusion from certain governmental programs. The Company believes that it is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable laws and regulations.

A significant portion of the Company’s revenue is derived from Medicaid and Medicare, for which reimbursement rates are subject to regulatory changes and government funding restrictions. Any significant future change to reimbursement rates could have a material effect on the Company’s operations.

Legal Matters

The skilled nursing business involves a significant risk of liability due to the age and health of the Company’s patients and residents and the services the Company provides. The Company and others in the industry are subject to an increasing number of claims

Table of Contents

and lawsuits, including professional liability claims, which may allege that services have resulted in personal injury, elder abuse, wrongful death or other related claims. The defense of these lawsuits may result in significant legal costs, regardless of the outcome, and can result in large settlement amounts or damage awards.

In addition to the potential lawsuits and claims described above, the Company is also subject to potential lawsuits under the Federal False Claims Act and comparable state laws alleging submission of fraudulent claims for services to any healthcare program (such as Medicare) or payer. A violation may provide the basis for exclusion from federally funded healthcare programs. As of March 31, 2015 , the Company does not have any material loss contingencies recorded or requiring disclosure based upon the evaluation of the probability of loss from known claims, except as disclosed below.

On June 24, 2013, South Star Services, Inc. (“SSSI”), Troy Clanton and Rose Rabon (collectively, the “Plaintiffs”) filed a complaint in the District Court of Oklahoma County, State of Oklahoma against: (i) AdCare, certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries and AdCare’s former Chief Executive Officer (collectively, the “AdCare Defendants”); (ii) Christopher Brogdon and his wife; and (iii) five entities controlled by Mr. and Mrs. Brogdon, which entities own five skilled-nursing facilities located in Oklahoma that were previously managed by an AdCare subsidiary (the "Oklahoma Facilities"). The complaint alleges, with respect to the AdCare Defendants, that: (i) the AdCare Defendants tortuously interfered with contractual relations between the Plaintiffs and Mr. Brogdon, and with Plaintiffs’ prospective economic advantage, relating to SSSI’s right to manage the Oklahoma Facilities and seven other skilled-nursing facilities located in Oklahoma (collectively, the “Facilities”), respectively; (ii) the AdCare Defendants fraudulently induced the Plaintiffs to perform work and incur expenses with respect to the Facilities; and (iii) one of the AdCare subsidiaries which is an AdCare Defendant provided false and defamatory information to an Oklahoma regulatory authority regarding SSSI’s management of one of the Oklahoma Facilities. The complaint seeks damages against the AdCare Defendants, including punitive damages, in an unspecified amount, as well as costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney fees. On March 7, 2014, the Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint in which they alleged additional facts regarding the alleged fraudulent inducement caused by Mr. and Mrs. Brogdon and the AdCare Defendants.

On February 10, 2015, Plaintiffs and the defendants participated in a voluntary mediation in an attempt to resolve the case. Although the case did not settle at the mediation, Plaintiffs and defendants continued to negotiate over the following weeks and executed a settlement agreement on March 30, 2015 (the "Clanton Settlement Agreement") to settle all claims for a lump sum payment of $2.0 million . Under the Clanton Settlement Agreement, the Company is to pay $0.6 million to the Plaintiffs with the balance thereof to be paid by two of the Company's insurance carriers. The Company and the other defendants in the matter deny all of the Plaintiff's claims and any wrongdoing but agreed to settle the matter to avoid the continued expense and unpredictability of litigation.

On March 7, 2014, the Company responded to a letter received from the Ohio Attorney General ("OAG") dated February 25, 2014 demanding repayment of approximately $1.0 million as settlement for alleged improper Medicaid payments related to seven Ohio facilities affiliated with the Company. The OAG alleged that the Company had submitted improper Medicaid claims for independent laboratory services for glucose blood tests and capillary blood draws. The Company intends to defend itself against the claims. The Company has not recorded a liability for this matter because the liability, if any, and outcome cannot be determined at this time.

Income Tax Examinations

In early 2014, the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") initiated an examination of the Company's income tax return for the 2011 income tax year. On May 7, 2014, the IRS completed and closed the examination and no changes were required to the Company's 2011 income tax return.

To the Company's knowledge, it is not currently under examination by any other major income tax jurisdiction.

Liquidity Overview

At March 31, 2015 , we had $10.7 million in cash and cash equivalents as well as restricted cash and investments of $8.1 million . Over the next 12 months, we anticipate both access to and receipt of several sources of liquidity. We routinely have ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, have refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs. During the remainder of 2015, we anticipate positive cash flow from operations and other working capital changes. At March 31, 2015 , we had $151.8 million in indebtedness of which the current portion is $29.7 million . We anticipate our operating cash requirements in 2015 as being substantially less than in 2014 due to the transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. We expect sufficient funds for our operations, scheduled debt service, and capital expenditures at least through the next twelve months. We have been successful in recent years in raising new equity capital and believe, based on recent discussions, that these markets will continue to be available to us for raising capital in 2015 and beyond. We believe our long-term liquidity needs will be satisfied by these same sources, as well as borrowings as required to refinance indebtedness (for a more detailed discussion, see Note 3 - Liquidity and Profitability , located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

Discontinued Operations

On March 31, 2014, we entered into a representation agreement to sell Companions, a 102 -bed skilled nursing facility located in Tulsa, Oklahoma. During 2014, the Company recognized a $1.8 million loss on impairment to adjust the net book value of Companions to reflect the fair market value. In April 2015, we entered into an asset purchase agreement to sell Companions. Closing is expected after completion of customary closing conditions (see Note 15 - Subsequent Events , located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

For the discontinued operations, the patient care revenue, related cost of services, and facility rental expense prior to the commencement of subleasing are classified in the activities below.

The following table summarizes the activity of discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 :

Primary Performance Indicators

We own, operate and manage skilled nursing facilities and assisted living facilities, and deliver our services through wholly owned separate operating subsidiaries.

We focus on two primary indicators in evaluating the Company's financial performance. Those indicators are facility occupancy and patient mix. Facility occupancy is critical as higher occupancy generally leads to higher revenues. In addition, concentrating on increasing the number of Medicare covered admissions (“the patient mix”) helps in increasing revenues. We include commercial insurance covered admissions that are reimbursed at the same level as those covered by Medicare in our Medicare utilization percentages and analysis.

Average occupancy rates at our facilities, excluding discontinued operations and managed facilities, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 were as follows:

Patient mix at our skilled nursing facilities, excluding discontinued operations and managed facilities, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was as follows:



	Patient Mix (SNF only)
	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2015		2014
Medicare	16.2	%	16.2	%
Medicaid	69.8	%	70.7	%
Other	14.0	%	13.1	%
Total	100.0	%	100.0	%

On May 1, 2014, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS") issued a proposed rule outlining fiscal year 2015 (which begins October 1, 2014) Medicare payment rates for skilled nursing facilities. Based on proposed changes contained within this rule, CMS projects that aggregate payments to skilled nursing facilities will increase by $750 million, or 2.0%, from payments in fiscal year 2014 (which began October 1, 2013), which represents a higher update factor than the 1.3% update finalized for skilled nursing facilities in fiscal year 2014. This estimated increase is attributable to 2.4% market basket increase, reduced by the 0.4 percentage point multifactor productivity adjustment required by law.

On July 31, 2014, CMS issued a final rule outlining fiscal year 2015 (which begins October 1, 2014) Medicare payment rates for skilled nursing facilities. Based on the changes contained within the rule, CMS estimates that aggregate payments to skilled nursing facilities will increase by $750 million, or 2.0%, from payments in fiscal year 2014 (which began October 1, 2013), which represents a higher update factor than the 1.3% update finalized for skilled nursing facilities in fiscal year 2014. This estimated increase is attributable to a 2.5% market basket increase, reduced by the 0.5 percentage point multifactor productivity adjustment required by law.

On April 15, 2015, CMS issued a proposed rule outlining fiscal year 2016 (which begins October 1, 2015) Medicare payment rates for skilled nursing facilities. Based on the proposed changes contained within the rule, CMS projects that aggregate payments to skilled nursing facilities will increase by $500 million, or 1.4%, from payments in fiscal year 2015 (which began October 1, 2014), which represents a lower update factor than the 2.0% update finalized for skilled nursing facilities in fiscal year 2015. This estimated increase is attributable to a 2.6% market basket increase, reduced by a 0.6 percentage point forecast error adjustment and further reduced by the 0.6 percentage point multifactor productivity adjustment required by law.

Medicare reimburses our SNFs under a prospective payment system (“PPS”) for certain inpatient covered services. Under PPS, facilities are paid a predetermined amount per patient, per day, based on the anticipated costs of treating patients. Should future changes in PPS include further reduced rates or increased standards for reaching certain reimbursement levels (including as a result of automatic cuts tied to federal deficit cut efforts or otherwise), our Medicare revenues derived from our skilled nursing facilities could be reduced, with a corresponding adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

We also derive a substantial portion of our consolidated revenue from Medicaid reimbursement, primarily through our skilled nursing business. Medicaid programs are administered by the applicable states and financed by both state and federal funds. Medicaid spending nationally has increased significantly in recent years, becoming an increasingly significant component of state budgets. This, combined with slower state revenue growth and other state budget demands, has led the Federal government to institute measures aimed at both controlling the growth of Medicaid spending and, in some instances, reducing it.

Historically, adjustments to reimbursement under Medicare and Medicaid have had a significant effect on our revenue and results of operations. Recently enacted, pending and proposed legislation and administrative rulemaking at the federal and state levels could have similar effects on our business. Efforts to impose reduced reimbursement rates, greater discounts and more stringent cost controls by government and other payors are expected to continue for the foreseeable future and could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, any delay or default by the Federal or state governments in making Medicare and/or Medicaid reimbursement payments could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

We prepare financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We base estimates on historical experience, business knowledge and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time. Actual results may vary from our estimates. These estimates are evaluated by management and revised as circumstances change.

During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , we adopted FASB issued ASU 2014-08 , which amends the definition of a discontinued operation to include only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. This ASU is applied prospectively and is effective for the Company for the 2015 annual and interim periods.

Patient Care Revenues —Total patient care revenues decreased by $ 0.4 million , or 1% , for the three months ended March 31, 2015 as compared with the same period in 2014 . The decrease was primarily due to a slight decrease in the skilled nursing facility occupancy rate from 79.4% to 78.9% and a decrease in the skilled nursing facility average Medicare reimbursement rate per patient day from $459.23 to $456.53 , or 0.6% .

Management Revenues— Management revenues (net of eliminations) decreased approximately $0.3 million , or 55% , for the three months ended March 31, 2015 , as compared with the same period in 2014 . The decrease is primarily due to the discontinuance of a management agreement effective as of March 1, 2014.

Cost of Services— Cost of services was approximately $41.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 , as compared with the same period in 2014 of approximately $38.6 million . The increase is primarily due to the following: (i) an increase of approximately $0.2 million in pharmacy and therapy expense and approximately $0.5 million in nursing expense; (ii) an increase of approximately $0.4 million in plant operations expense; (iii) an increase of approximately $0.4 million in employee benefit-related expenses; (iv) an increase of $0.7 million in bad debt expense; (v) an increase of approximately $0.1 million in property tax expense; (vi) an increase of approximately $0.1 million in insurance expenses; and (vii) an increase of approximately $0.2 million in regulatory and other expenses. Cost of services as a percentage of patient care revenue increased from 82.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 to 89.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 .

Table of Contents

General and Administrative— General and administrative costs decreased by $1.4 million to $ 3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 , compared with $ 4.6 million for the same period in 2014 . The decrease is primarily due to the following: (i) a decrease in salaries, wages and employee benefits expense of approximately $1.3 million, partially offset by an increase in contract services expense of approximately $0.5 million; (ii) a decrease of approximately $0.2 million in travel and other reimbursable expenses; (iii) a decrease of approximately $0.3 million in stock-based compensation expense; and (iv) a decrease of approximately $0.1 million in legal and director fees. As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative costs declined to 6.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 , compared with 9.6% for the same period in 2014 , reflecting the announcement of the Company's transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company and the progress we have made in cost control efforts at the general and administrative level.

Facility Rent Expense —Facility rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2015 increased by approximately $0.2 million to $1.9 million , compared with $1.7 million for the same period in 2014 , respectively. The increase is primarily due to the treatment of certain facility rent expense as part of continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 but as part of discontinued operations for the same period in 2014 in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

Depreciation and Amortization— Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2015 decreased by $ 0.1 million to $1.7 million , compared with $ 1.8 million for the same period in 2014 . The decrease is primarily due to the expiration of certain software licenses in 2014 .

Interest Expense, net— Interest expense, net decreased by $ 0.1 million , or 3% , to $ 2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 , compared with $ 2.6 million for the same period in 2014 . The decrease is primarily due to the refinancing of certain loan agreements to more favorable terms and the extinguishment of certain other debt (for further information, see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt , located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt— The Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared with approximately $0.6 million for the same period in 2014 . The $0.7 million loss is due to the February 2015 issuance of promissory notes related to the refinancing of certain loan agreements with one of our lenders (for further information, see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt , located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

Other Expense— The Company recognized approximately $0.3 million of other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared with approximately $0.1 million for the same period in 2014 . The $0.3 million expense related to $0.3 million of costs associated with the Company's transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company and legal fees associated with ongoing litigation matters.

Income Tax Expense— The Company recognized income tax expense of approximately $0.02 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 , compared with approximately $0.01 million for the same period in 2014 . The increase of $0.01 million is primarily due to the submission of additional filing extensions related to the 2014 tax year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

At March 31, 2015 , we had one facility, three office buildings and one variable interest entity held for sale that we anticipate selling in 2015. We expect that the cash proceeds and the release of restricted cash on the sale of the variable interest entity and the sale of the one facility will approximate the related obligations. We expect that the cash proceeds from the sale of the office buildings will exceed related obligations by approximately $0.6 million .

We routinely have ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, has refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs.

During the remainder of 2015, we anticipate net proceeds of approximately $2.7 million on refinancing of existing debt, primarily in the second and third quarters of 2015. Further, we estimate cash flow from operations and other working capital changes of approximately $1.5 million for the year ending December 31, 2015 .

Table of Contents

We maintain certain revolving lines of credit for which we have limited remaining capacity and all of which are due and expected to be repaid in 2015. Given our ongoing transition out of healthcare operations, we do not anticipate any additional draws on these facilities.

On March 31, 2015 , we entered into subscription agreements with certain accredited investors pursuant to which we accepted subscriptions for an aggregate of $8.5 million in principal amount of our 10% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due April 30, 2017 (the "2015 Notes"). In connection therewith, we received net cash proceeds for working capital of approximately $1.7 million on March 31, 2015, and approximately $6.0 million on April 30, 2015 (see Note 9 – Notes Payable and Other Debt and Note 15 - Subsequent Events , located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

On April 13, 2015, we issued and sold 575,000 shares of its Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock") at a public offering price of $25.75 per share in a "best-efforts" underwritten registered public offering. In connection therewith, we received net cash proceeds of approximately $13.5 million (see Note 15 – Subsequent Events , located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

Other liquidity sources include to a lesser extent, the proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants.

Cash Requirements

At March 31, 2015 , we had $151.8 million in indebtedness of which the current portion is $29.7 million . This current portion is comprised of the following components: (i) convertible debt of approximately $8.3 million ; (ii) debt of held for sale entities of approximately $12.1 million , primarily senior debt - bond and mortgage indebtedness; and (iii) remaining debt of approximately $9.3 million which includes revolver debt, senior debt - bonds, and senior debt - mortgage indebtedness (for a complete debt listing and credit facility detail, see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt , located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

The convertible debt includes two subordinated convertible debt issuances. One was issued in 2012 (the “2012 Notes”) and has an outstanding principal amount of $7.5 million at March 31, 2015 with maturity on July 31, 2015 . At any time on or after the six-month anniversary of the date of issuance of the 2012 Notes, they are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to $3.97 per share (adjusted for a 5% stock dividend paid on October 22, 2012 , and subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar events). The other was issued in 2014 (the “2014 Notes”) and has an outstanding principal amount of $0.8 million at March 31, 2015 with maturity on April 30, 2015 . At any time on or after the date of issuance of the 2014 Notes, they are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the common stock at an initial conversion price equal to $4.50 per share, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination of shares, recapitalization and other similar events.

On March 31, 2015 , we entered into subscription agreements with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company accepted subscriptions for an aggregate of $8.5 million in principal amount of the 2015 Notes. In connection therewith, we issued approximately $1.7 million in principal amount of 2015 Notes on March 31, 2015 and approximately $6.0 million on April 30, 2015 (see Note 15 - Subsequent Events , located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

The current debt maturing in 2015 for all other debt approximates $9.3 million . As indicated previously, we routinely have ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, has refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs. We anticipate net principal disbursements of approximately $6.8 million which reflect the offset of anticipated proceeds on refinancing of approximately $2.5 million .

We anticipate operating cash requirements in 2015 as being substantially less than in 2014 due to the transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Based on the described sources of liquidity and related cash requirements, we expect sufficient funds for our operations, scheduled debt service, and capital expenditures at least through the next 12 months. On a longer term basis, at March 31, 2015 , we have approximately $67.3 million of debt maturities due over the next two year period ending March 31, 2017 , excluding convertible promissory notes which are convertible into shares of our common stock. We have been successful in recent years in raising new equity capital and believes, based on recent discussions, that these markets will continue to be available to us for raising capital in 2015 and beyond. We believe its long-term liquidity needs will be satisfied by these same sources, as well as borrowings as required to refinance indebtedness.

In order to satisfy our capital needs, we seek to: (i) improve operating results through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions with favorable terms and consistent and predictable cash flow; (ii) expand borrowing arrangements with certain lenders; (iii) refinance current debt where possible to obtain more favorable terms; and (iv) raise capital through the issuance of debt or

equity securities. We anticipate that these actions, if successful, will provide the opportunity to maintain liquidity on a short and long term basis, thereby permitting us to meet our operating and financing obligations for the next twelve months. However, there is no guarantee that such actions will be successful or that anticipated operating results or the transition of the Company to primarily a property holding and leasing company will be achieved. We currently have limited borrowing availability under our existing revolving credit facilities.

Debt Covenant Compliance

As of March 31, 2015 , we (including our consolidated variable interest entity) have approximately 46 credit related instruments (credit facilities, mortgage notes, bonds and other credit obligations) outstanding that include various financial and administrative covenant requirements. Covenant requirements include, but are not limited to, fixed charge coverage ratios, debt service coverage ratios, minimum EBITDA or EBITDAR, current ratios and tangible net worth requirements. Certain financial covenant requirements are based on consolidated financial measurements whereas others are based on measurements at the subsidiary level (i.e., facility, multiple facilities or a combination of subsidiaries comprising less than the Company’s consolidated financial

measurements). Some covenants are based on annual financial metric measurements whereas others are based on quarterly financial metric measurements. We routinely track and monitor our compliance with our covenant requirements. In recent periods, including as of March 31, 2015 , we have not been in compliance with certain financial covenants. For each instance of such non-compliance, we have obtained waivers or amendments to such requirements including, as necessary, modifications to future covenant requirements or the elimination of certain requirements in future periods.

The table below indicates which of our credit-related instruments are out of compliance as of March 31, 2015 :

Gemino-Northwest Credit Facility

Table of Contents

provided for a $1.0 million principal amount senior-secured revolving credit facility.

The Northwest Credit Facility matured on January 31, 2015. Interest accrued on the principal balance thereof at an annual rate of 4.75% plus the current LIBOR rate. Northwest also paid to Gemino: (i) a collateral monitoring fee equal to 1.0% per annum of the daily outstanding balance of the Northwest Credit Facility; and (ii) a fee equal to 0.5% per annum of the unused portion of the Northwest Credit Facility. In the event the Northwest Credit Facility was terminated prior to January 31, 2015, Northwest was also required to pay a fee to Gemino in an amount equal to 1.0% of the Northwest Credit Facility. The Northwest Credit Facility is secured by a security interest in the accounts receivable and the collections and proceeds thereof relating to the Company’s skilled nursing facility located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma known as the Northwest Nursing Center. AdCare has unconditionally guaranteed all amounts owing under the Northwest Credit Facility.

On January 30, 2015 and March 25, 2015, Northwest and Gemino amended the Northwest Credit Facility to extend its term to March 31, 2015 and April 30, 2015, respectively.

Gemino-Bonterra Credit Facility

On September 20, 2012, ADK Bonterra/Parkview, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("Bonterra"), entered into a Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement with Gemino, which amended the original Credit Agreement dated April 27, 2011 between Bonterra and Gemino (the "Gemino-Bonterra Credit Facility"). The Gemino-Bonterra Credit Facility is a secured credit facility for borrowings up to $2.0 million . The amendment extended the term of the Gemino-Bonterra Credit Facility from October 29, 2013 to January 31, 2014 and amended certain financial covenants regarding Bonterra's fixed charge coverage ratio, maximum loan turn days and applicable margin. Interest accrues on the principal balance outstanding at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin of 4.75% to 5.00% , which fluctuates depending upon the principal amount outstanding.

On January 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015, Bonterra and Gemino amended the Gemino-Bonterra Credit Facility to extend its term to March 31, 2015 and April 30, 2015, respectively.

occurrence of certain events of default, PrivateBank may terminate the Georgetown and Sumter Credit Facility and all amounts under the Georgetown and Sumter Credit Facility will become due and payable.

At March 31, 2015 , the Company was not in compliance with covenants contained in the Georgetown and Sumter Credit Facility and has obtained a waiver from PrivateBank.

Northridge, Woodland Hills and Abington Credit Facility

AdCare has unconditionally guaranteed all amounts owing under the Northridge, Woodland Hills and Abington Credit Facility.

Senior Debt - Other Mortgage Indebtedness

Northridge, Woodland Hills and Abington

On December 28, 2012, the Company entered into a Secured Loan Agreement and Payment Guaranty with KeyBank National Association ("KeyBank") totaling $16.5 million (the "KeyBank Credit Facility").

Other Debt

Insurance Funding

In March 2014, we obtained financing from First Insurance Funding Corporation and entered into Commercial Insurance Premium Finance Security Agreements for several insurance programs, including general and professional liability, property, casualty, crime, and employment practices liability effective January 1, 2014 which matured on December 31, 2014. The total amount financed was approximately $3.3 million requiring monthly payments of $0.3 million with interest of 2.50% . The remaining outstanding amount owed was repaid in full during January 2015.

In March 2015, we obtained financing from IPFS Corporation and entered into a Commercial Insurance Premium Finance Security Agreement for several insurance programs, including property, casualty, and crime effective March 1, 2015 and maturing on

Table of Contents

December 31, 2015. The total amount financed was approximately $0.4 million requiring monthly payments with interest of 3.29% starting April 2015. At March 31, 2015 , the outstanding principal and interest was approximately $0.4 million .

KeyBank Promissory Notes

On April 3, 2015 , the Company entered into five separate unsecured Amended and Restated Promissory Note Agreements with KeyBank, which amend the KeyBank Promissory Notes and include a fifth note with the aggregate principal total of $0.7 million remaining unaltered. The amendments restate the principal balances on the original notes in order to include a fifth facility.

Convertible Debt

Convertible Subordinated Notes Issued in 2015 (the "2015 Notes")

On March 31, 2015, the Company entered into Subscription Agreements with certain accredited investors for $8.5 million of the 2015 Notes. In connection therewith, we issued $1.7 million in principal amount of 2015 Notes on March 31, 2015 and approximately $6.0 million in principal amount of 2015 Notes on April 30, 2015 (see Note 15 - Subsequent Events , located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

We may prepay at any time, without penalty, upon 60 days prior notice, any portion of the outstanding principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest thereon with respect to any 2015 Note; provided, however, that: (i) the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of any 2015 Note which is to be so prepaid must be: (a) registered for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"); or (b) otherwise sellable under Rule 144 of the Securities Act without volume limitations thereunder; (ii) at any time after the issue date of such 2015 Note, the volume-weighted average price of the common stock for ten consecutive trading days has equaled or exceeded 125% of the then-current conversion price; and (iii) such prepayment may not be effected prior to March 31, 2016.

On March 31, 2015, we also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the investors pursuant to which the Company has agreed to file, no later than April 30, 2015, a registration statement with the SEC to register the resale of the shares of common

Table of Contents

stock issuable upon conversion of the 2015 Notes and to use the Company’s best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable after filing.

In connection with the offering, Institutional Securities Corporation, the placement agent in the offering, is entitled to receive from the Company a placement agent fee of approximately $0.1 million. Institutional Securities Corporation is affiliated with Doucet Asset Management, LLC, a greater than 5% beneficial owner of the common stock.

In the offering, the Company accepted Subscription Agreements from certain related parties (see Note 14 - Related Party Transactions , located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

Receivables

The Company’s operations could be adversely affected if we experience significant delays in reimbursement from Medicare, Medicaid or other third-party revenue sources. The Company’s future liquidity will continue to be dependent upon the relative amounts of current assets (principally cash and patient accounts receivable) and current liabilities (principally accounts payable and accrued expenses). In that regard, accounts receivable can have a significant impact on our liquidity. Continued efforts by governmental and third-party payors to contain or reduce the acceleration of costs by monitoring reimbursement rates, by increasing medical review of bills for services, or by negotiating reduced contract rates, as well as any delay by the staff at our facilities in the processing of our invoices, could adversely affect our liquidity and results of operations.

Accounts receivable totaled $23.9 million at March 31, 2015 , compared to $24.3 million at December 31, 2014 , representing approximately 55 and 51 days of revenue in accounts receivable as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively.

The allowance for doubtful accounts was $7.7 million and $6.7 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. We continually evaluate the adequacy of our bad debt reserves based on patient mix trends, aging of older balances, payment terms and delays with regard to third-party payors, as well as other factors. We continue to evaluate and implement additional processes to strengthen our collection efforts and reduce the incidence of uncollectible accounts.

Inflation

We have historically derived a substantial portion of our revenue from the Medicare program. We also derive revenue from state Medicaid and similar reimbursement programs. Payments under these programs generally provide for reimbursement levels that are adjusted for inflation annually based upon the state’s fiscal year for the Medicaid programs and in each October for the Medicare program. These adjustments may not continue in the future, and even if received, such adjustments may not reflect the actual increase in our costs for providing healthcare services.

Labor and supply expenses make up a substantial portion of our cost of services. Those expenses can be subject to increase in periods of rising inflation and when labor shortages occur in the marketplace. To date, we have generally been able to implement cost control measures or obtain increases in reimbursement sufficient to offset increases in these expenses. We may not be successful in offsetting future cost increases.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There were $3.8 million of outstanding letters of credit at both March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . For both periods, the borrowing base capacity was reduced by $3.8 million on the PrivateBank revolver below the total eligible borrowing base amounts pledged in order to pledge collateral for the full outstanding letters of credit.

Operating Leases

We lease certain office space and a total of eleven skilled nursing facilities under non-cancelable operating leases, most of which have initial lease terms of ten to twelve years with rent escalation clauses and provisions for payments by the Company of real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs; six of the skilled nursing facilities that are leased are operated by the Company. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 , facility rent expense totaled $1.9 million and $1.7 million , respectively. Total facility rent expense excludes $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 that is recognized in Loss from Discontinued Operations, net of tax.

Table of Contents

Eight of our skilled nursing facilities are operated under a single master indivisible lease arrangement dated August 1, 2010, with William M. Foster as landlord (the "Prime Lease"). The lease has a term of ten years into 2020. Under the Prime Lease, a breach at a single facility could subject one or more of the other facilities covered by the same master lease to the same default risk. Failure to comply with regulations or governmental authorities, such as Medicaid and Medicare provider requirements, is a default under the Prime Lease. In addition, other potential defaults related to an individual facility may cause a default of the entire Prime Lease. With an indivisible lease, it is difficult to restructure the composition of the portfolio or economic terms of the lease without the consent of the landlord. We are not aware of any defaults and believe we are in compliance with the covenants of the Prime Lease as of March 31, 2015 .

Two of our facilities are operated under a single indivisible lease; therefore, a breach at a single facility could subject the second facility to the same default risk. The lease has an initial term of twelve years into 2022 and two optional ten -year renewal terms, and includes covenants and restrictions. We are required to make minimum capital expenditures of $375 per licensed bed per lease year at each facility which amounts to $0.1 million per year for both facilities. As of March 31, 2015 , the Company is in compliance with all financial and administrative covenants of this lease agreement.

Future minimum lease payments for each of the next five years ending December 31 , are as follows:



	(Amounts in 000's)
2015 ^(a)	$	5,113
2016	6,688
2017	6,593
2018	6,539
2019	6,060
Thereafter	6,637
Total	$	37,630

^(a) Estimated minimum lease payments for the year ending December 31, 2015 include only payments to be recorded after March 31, 2015 .

We have also entered into lease agreements for various equipment used in the facilities. These leases are included in future minimum lease payments above.

Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and

Note 7 - Leases included in the Annual Report.

Arkansas Leases

On April 30, 2015 , the Company entered into a Lease Inducement Fee Agreement with Aria Health Consulting, LLC. The Lease Inducement Fee Agreement provides for a one-time payment from the Company to Aria Health Consulting, LLC equal to $2.0 million minus the security deposits and first month's base and special rent for all Aria Sublessees. On April 30, 2015 , in connection with the Aria Lease Inducement Fee Agreement, the remaining eight sublease agreements were amended to, among other things, provide that the Aria Sublessees shall, collectively, pay to the Aria Sublessors special rent in the amount of $29,500 per month

Table of Contents

payable in advance on or before the first day of each month (except for the first special rent payment, which shall be subtracted from the lease inducement fee paid by the Company under the Lease Inducement Fee Agreement).

On April 30, 2015, two Aria Sublessors entered into separate sublease termination agreements with two Aria Sublessees, pursuant to which each Aria Sublessor and Aria Sublessee mutually agreed to terminate two of the separate sublease agreements previously entered into on January 16, 2015. The remaining eight sublease agreements commenced on May 1, 2015 (see Note 15 - Subsequent Events , located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). In connection with entering into the sublease agreements, each Aria Sublessor and Aria Sublessee also entered into an operations transfer agreement with respect to the applicable facility, each containing customary terms and conditions relating to the transfer of operations of the skilled nursing facilities.

As a condition to the Aria Sublessees agreement to a commencement date of May 1, 2015, the Company and the Aria Sublessees agreed to assess, in good faith and within thirty (30) days following the commencement date, making a one-time equitable adjustment to base rent equal to the difference between the facilities 2014 professional liability and general liability insurance costs and projected costs for the first lease year of comparable or mutually acceptable insurance as further adjusted by anticipated Medicaid reimbursement rate increases solely from such added costs. Pursuant to each sublease agreement, the initial lease term is ten years with a five-year renewal option. The annual base rent under all of the sublease agreements in the first year is $5.3 million in the aggregate, exclusive of any equitable adjustment, and the annual base rent under each sublease will escalate at 2% each year through the initial term and 3% per year upon renewal. The sublease agreements are cross-defaulted. On February 27, 2015 and March 31, 2015, the sublease agreements with the Aria Sublessees were amended to extend the commencement date of the subleases to April 1, 2015, and May 1, 2015, respectively.

Georgia Leases

On February 18, 2015 , a wholly-owned subsidiary (“College Park Sublessor”) of the Company entered into separate sublease agreements pursuant to which College Park Sublessor leased one skilled nursing facility located in Georgia, to affiliates of C.R. of College Park, LLC (the "College Park Sublessee"). The sublease agreement was subject to, among other things, the College Park Sublessee's receipt of all licenses and other approvals from the State of Georgia to operate such facility. The sublease agreement is structured as triple net lease wherein the College Park Sublessee is responsible for the day-to-day operation, ongoing maintenance, taxes and insurance for the duration of the sublease. The initial term of the sublease agreement will expire on April 30, 2020 and has a five year renewal option. The annual rent under the sublease agreement in the first year will approximate $0.6 million annually, and the annual rent will escalate at $12 thousand annually through the lease term. The sublease commenced on April 1, 2015 (see Note 15 - Subsequent Events , located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). In connection with the sublease agreements, the current licensed operator (wholly-owned subsidiary of College Park Sublessor) and the College Park Sublessee also entered into an operations transfer agreement with respect to the applicable facility, containing customary terms and conditions relating to the transfer of operations of skilled nursing facilities.

Table of Contents

five year renewal option. The annual rent under the sublease agreement in the first year will approximate $0.8 million annually, and the annual rent will escalate at $12 thousand annually through the initial lease term. In connection with the sublease agreements, the current licensed operator (wholly-owned subsidiary of Autumn Breeze Sublessor) and the Autumn Breeze Sublessee also entered into an operations transfer agreement with respect to the applicable facility, containing customary terms and conditions relating to the transfer of operations of skilled nursing facilities.

Note 15 - Subsequent Events , located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). The facilities are currently leased by LaGrange Sublessor, as tenant, pursuant to the Prime Lease. The sublease agreement is structured as triple net lease wherein the LaGrange Sublessee is responsible for the day-to-day operation, ongoing maintenance, taxes and insurance for the duration of the sublease. The initial term of the sublease agreement will expire on July 31, 2020 coterminous with the Prime Lease. If LaGrange Sublessor and landlord agree to extend the term of the Prime Lease, LaGrange Sublessee has the right to extend the term of the sublease agreements through the end of the renewal term of the Prime Lease. The annual rent under the sublease agreement in the first two years will approximate $1.0 million annually, and the annual rent will escalate at 3.0% annually through the lease term. In connection with the sublease agreements, the current licensed operators (wholly-owned subsidiaries of LaGrange Sublessor) and the LaGrange Sublessee also entered into an operations transfer agreement with respect to the applicable facility, containing customary terms and conditions relating to the transfer of operations of skilled nursing facilities.

North Carolina and South Carolina Leases

The subleases for the two South Carolina skilled nursing facilities commenced on April 1, 2015 .

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations

Due to the material amount of non-cash related items included in the Company’s results of operations, we have developed an Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations”) metric which provides management with a clearer view of operational use of cash (see the table below). The Company has also developed an Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization and Rent (“Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations”) metric that is used primarily in some debt covenants of the Company’s loans.

“Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations” and “Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations” are measures of operating performance that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP. We define: (i) “Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations” as net income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (including

Table of Contents

amortization of non-cash stock-based compensation), loss on extinguishment of debt, and other non-routine adjustments; and (ii) “Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations” as net income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense; income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (including amortization of non-cash stock-based compensation), loss on extinguishment of debt, rent, and other non-routine adjustments. We have provided below supplemental financial disclosure for these measures, including the most directly comparable GAAP measure (Net Loss) and an associated reconciliation.

The following table provides reconciliation of reported Net Loss on a GAAP basis to Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and EBITDAR from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 :



	Three Months Ended March 31,
(Amounts in 000’s)	2015			2014
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations Data:
Net loss	$	(5,249	)	$	(2,523	)
Discontinued operations	1,407			(75		)
Net loss from continuing operations (Per GAAP)	(3,842		)	(2,598		)
Add back:
Interest expense, net	2,537			2,622
Income tax expense	20			8
Amortization of stock based compensation	203			513
Depreciation and amortization	1,706			1,786
Loss on extinguishment of debt	680			583
Other expense	280			110
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations	1,584			3,024
Facility rent expense	1,931			1,659
Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations	$	3,515		$	4,683

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, income from operations or cash flows provided by, or used in, operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations are used by management to focus on operating performance and management without mixing in items of income and expense that relate to the financing and capitalization of the business, fixed rent or lease payments of facilities and other non-routine adjustments.

We believe these measures are useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s performance, results of operations and financial position for the following reasons:


•	They are helpful in identifying trends in the Company’s day-to-day performance because the items excluded have little or no significance to the Company’s day-to-day operations;


•	They provide an assessment of controllable expenses and afford management the ability to make decisions which are expected to facilitate meeting current financial goals as well as achieve optimal financial performance; and


•	They provide data that assists management determine whether or not adjustments to current spending decisions are needed.

We believe that the use of the measures provides a meaningful and consistent comparison of the Company’s underlying business between periods by eliminating certain items required by GAAP, which have little or no significance in the Company’s day-to-day operations.
