NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. Business
Overview
The Company
STRAWBERRY FIELDS REIT, Inc. (the "Company") is a Maryland corporation formed in July 2019. The Company commenced operations on June 8, 2021. The Company conducts its business through a traditional UPREIT structure in which substantially all its assets are owned by subsidiaries of Strawberry Fields Realty, LP, a Delaware limited partnership formed in July 2019 (the "Operating Partnership"). The Company is the general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Company owns approximately 22.7% and 22.1% of the outstanding Operating Partnership units ("OP units") as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Company has the exclusive power under the partnership agreement to manage and conduct the business affairs of the Operating Partnership, subject to certain limited approval and voting rights of the limited partners. The Company may cause the Operating Partnership to issue additional OP units in connection with property acquisitions, compensation or otherwise. The Company became a publicly traded entity on September 21, 2022.
The Company is engaged in the ownership, acquisition, financing and triple-net leasing of skilled nursing facilities and other post-acute healthcare properties. As of September 30, 2025, the Company's portfolio consists of 131 healthcare properties and one leased property that is in turn leased to a tenant that operates the facilities. As of December 31, 2024, the Company owned 113 properties and leased one property that it in turn subleased to a tenant that operates the facility. As of September 30, 2025, the portfolio properties are located in Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas. The Company generates substantially all of its revenues by leasing its properties to tenants under long-term leases primarily on a triple-net basis, under which the tenant pays the cost of real estate taxes, insurance and other operating costs of the facility and capital expenditures. Each healthcare facility located at its properties is managed by a qualified operator with an experienced management team.
Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information, and the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules for interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, in the opinion of management, the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's condensed consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2025, and the condensed consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The condensed consolidated results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any subsequent interim period or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.
Variable Interest Entity
The Company consolidates the Operating Partnership, a variable interest entity ("VIE") in which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the entity that has (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE.
Non-Controlling Interest
A non-controlling interest is defined as the portion of the equity in an entity not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the primary beneficiary. Non-controlling interests are required to be presented as a separate component of equity on condensed consolidated balance sheets. Accordingly, the presentation of net income is modified to present the income attributed to controlling and non-controlling interests. The non-controlling interest on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets represents OP units not held by the Company and represents approximately 77.3% and 78.3% of the outstanding OP Units issued by the Operating Partnership as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The holders of these OP units are entitled to share in cash distributions from the Operating Partnership in proportion to their percentage ownership of OP units. Net income is allocated to the non-controlling interest based on the weighted average of OP units outstanding during the period.
Basis of Presentation
The Company maintains its accounting records on an accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP").

Fiscal Year End
The Company has adopted a fiscal year end of December 31.
Use of Estimates
Management is required to make estimates and assumptions in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from management's estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Operating Partnership and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased.
The Company's cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents periodically exceed federally insurable limits. The Company monitors the cash balances in its operating accounts and adjusts the cash balances as appropriate; however, these cash balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions fail or are subject to other adverse conditions in the financial markets. To date, the Company has experienced no loss or lack of access to the cash in its operating accounts. On September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had $40.7million and $80.0million, respectively, on deposit in excess of federally insured limits.
Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents
Restricted cash primarily consists of amounts held by mortgage lenders to provide for real estate tax expenditures, tenant improvements, capital expenditures and security deposits, as well as escrow accounts related to principal and interest payments on Bonds.
Real Estate Depreciation
Real estate costs related to the acquisition and improvement of properties are capitalized and depreciated over the expected life of the asset on a straight-line basis. The Company considers the period of future benefit of an asset to determine its appropriate useful life. The Company does not incur expenditures for tenant improvements as they are the responsibility of the tenant per their respective leases. The Company anticipates the estimated useful lives of its assets by class to be generally as follows:
| Building and improvements | 7-45years |
| Equipment and personal property | 2-18years |

NOTE 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont.)
Real Estate Valuation
In determining fair value and the allocation of the purchase price of acquisitions, the Company uses current appraisals or third-party valuations services. The most significant components of these allocations are typically the allocation of fair value to land and buildings and, for certain of its acquisitions, in place leases and other intangible assets. In the case of the fair value of buildings and the allocation of value to land and other intangibles, the estimates of the values of these components will affect the amount of depreciation and amortization the Company records over the estimated useful life of the property acquired or the remaining lease term. In the case of the value of in place leases, the Company makes best estimates based on the evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease. Factors considered include estimates of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease up periods, market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. These assumptions affect the amount of future revenue that the Company will recognize over the remaining lease term for the acquired in place leases.
The Company evaluates each purchase transaction to determine whether the acquired assets meet the definition of a business. Transaction costs related to acquisitions that are not deemed to be businesses are included in the cost basis of the acquired assets, while transaction costs related to acquisitions that are deemed to be businesses are expensed as incurred. All of the Company's acquisitions of investment properties qualified as asset acquisitions during the periods.
Revenue Recognition
Rental income from operating leases is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. Substantially all of the Company's leases contain provisions for specified annual increases over the rents of the prior year and are generally computed in one of three methods depending on specific provisions of each lease as follows:
| (i) | a specified annual increase over the prior year's rent, generally between 1.0% and 3.0%; | |
| (ii) | a calculation based on the Consumer Price Index; or | |
| (iii) | specific dollar increases. |
Contingent revenue is not recognized until all possible contingencies have been eliminated. The Company considers the operating history of the lessee and the general condition of the industry when evaluating whether all possible contingencies have been eliminated and have historically, and expect in the future, to not include contingent rents as income until received. The Company follows a policy related to rental income whereby the Company considers a lease to be non-performing after 60 days of non-payment of past due amounts and does not recognize unpaid rental income from that lease until the amounts have been received.
Rental revenues relating to non-contingent leases that contain specified rental increases over the life of the lease are recognized on the straight-line basis. Recognizing income on a straight-line basis requires us to calculate the total non-contingent rent containing specified rental increases over the life of the lease and to recognize the revenue evenly over that life. This method results in rental income in the early years of a lease being higher than actual cash received, creating a straight-line rent receivable asset included in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. At some point during the lease, depending on its terms, the cash rent payments eventually exceed the straight-line rent which results in the straight-line rent receivable asset decreasing to zero over the remainder of the lease term. The Company assesses the collectability of straight-line rent in accordance with the applicable accounting standards and reserve policy. If the lessee becomes delinquent in rent owed under the terms of the lease, the Company may provide a reserve against the recognized straight-line rent receivable asset for a portion, up to its full value, that the Company estimates may not be recoverable.

Revenue Recognition (Cont.)
Capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. Capitalized below-market leases are accreted to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases and expected below-market renewal option periods.
The Company reports revenues and expenses within our triple-net leased properties for real estate taxes that are escrowed and obligations of the tenants in accordance with their respective lease with us.
Gain from sale of real estate investments is recognized when control of the property is transferred and it is probable that substantially all consideration will be collected.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company evaluates the liquidity and creditworthiness of its tenants, operators and borrowers on a monthly and quarterly basis. The Company's evaluation considers industry and economic conditions, individual and portfolio property performance, credit enhancements, liquidity and other factors. The Company's tenants, borrowers and operators furnish property, portfolio and guarantor/operator-level financial statements, among other information, on a monthly or quarterly basis; the Company utilizes this financial information to calculate the lease or debt service coverages that it uses as a primary credit quality indicator. Lease and debt service coverage information is evaluated together with other property, portfolio and operator performance information, including revenue, expense, net operating income, occupancy, rental rate, reimbursement trends, capital expenditures and EBITDA (defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization), along with other liquidity measures. The Company evaluates, on a monthly basis or immediately upon a significant change in circumstance, its tenants', operators' and borrowers' ability to service their obligations with the Company.
The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for straight-line rent receivables resulting from tenants' inability to make contractual rent and tenant recovery payments or lease defaults. For straight-line rent receivables, the Company's assessment is based on amounts estimated to be recoverable over the lease term.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill
The Company assesses the carrying value of real estate assets and related intangibles ("real estate assets") when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company tests its real estate assets for impairment by comparing the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows to the carrying value of the real estate assets. The expected future undiscounted cash flows are calculated utilizing the lowest level of identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. If the carrying value exceeds the expected future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss will be recognized to the extent that the carrying value of the real estate assets is greater than their fair value.
Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually based on certain qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. Potential impairment indicators include a significant decline in real estate values, significant restructuring plans, current macroeconomic conditions, state of the equity and capital markets or a significant decline in the Company's market capitalization. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the Company applies the required two-step quantitative approach. The quantitative procedures of the two-step approach (i) compare the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value, including goodwill, and, if necessary, (ii) compare the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill with the carrying value as if it had been acquired in a business combination at the date of the impairment test. The excess fair value of the reporting unit over the fair value of assets and liabilities, excluding goodwill, is the implied value of goodwill and is used to determine the impairment amount, if any. The Company has selected the fourth quarter of each fiscal year to perform its annual impairment test.

NOTE 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont.)
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable and operating leases on owned properties. These financial instruments are subject to the possibility of loss of carrying value as a result of the failure of other parties to perform according to their contractual obligations or changes in market prices which may make the instrument less valuable. Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and equivalents are held with various financial institutions. From time to time, these balances exceed the federally insured limits. These balances are maintained with high quality financial institutions which management believe limits the risk. With respect to notes receivable, the Company obtains various collateral and other protective rights, and continually monitors these rights, to reduce such possibilities of loss. In addition, the Company provides reserves for potential losses based upon management's periodic review of our portfolio.
On September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company held five notes receivable with an outstanding balance of $19.2million and $16.6million, respectively. The notes have maturities ranging from 2026 through 2046, and interest rates ranging from 2% to 10.25%. One of the notes are collateralized by tenants' accounts receivable. Another is collateralized by real estate. The three other notes receivable are uncollateralized as of September 30, 2025.
With respect to operating leases, the Company maintains operating leases on certain owned properties and continues to manage tenant relationships proactively. As part of our lease agreements, the Company collects reserves from tenants to cover anticipated operating expenses, including property tax, insurance and building maintenance. These reserves are reviewed periodically to ensure adequacy and alignment with actual expenditures.
In addition, the Company closely monitors rent collections and enforces compliance with contractual payment terms. Rent payments are tracked monthly to ensure timely receipt within the agreed-upon window, and any delinquencies are addressed promptly through established collection procedures.
Market Concentration Risk
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company owned 131 and 113 properties and leased 1 property, respectively. The facilities are located in 10 states, with 20 facilities of its total facilities located in Illinois (which include 4,226 skilled nursing beds or 27.2% of the Company's total beds) and 41 of its total facilities in Indiana (which include 3,404 skilled nursing and assisted living beds or 21.9% of the Company's total beds). Since tenant revenue is primarily generated from Medicare and Medicaid, the operations of the Company are indirectly subject to the administrative directives, rules and regulations of federal and state regulatory agencies, including, but not limited to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, and the Department of Health and Aging in all states in which the Company operates.Such administrative directives, rules and regulations, including budgetary reimbursement funding, are subject to change by an act of Congress, the passage of laws by the state regulators or an administrative change mandated by one of the executive branch agencies. Such changes may occur with little notice or inadequate funding to pay for the related costs, including the additional administrative burden, to comply with a change.
Debt and Capital Raising Issuance Costs
Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of equity interests are recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. Debt issuance costs related to debt instruments, excluding line of credit arrangements, are deferred, recorded as a reduction of the related debt liability, and amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the related debt liability utilizing the interest method. Deferred financing costs related to line of credit arrangements are deferred, recorded as an asset and amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the related line of credit arrangement utilizing the interest method.
Penalties incurred to extinguish debt and any remaining unamortized debt issuance costs, discounts and premiums are recognized as income or expense in the condensed consolidated statements of income at the time of extinguishment.
Segment Reporting
Accounting guidance regarding disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related information establishes standards for the manner in which public business enterprises report information about operating segments. The Company's investment decisions in health care properties, and resulting investments are managed as a single operating segment for internal reporting and for internal decision-making purposes. Therefore, the Company has concluded that it operates as a single segment. The Chief Operating Decision Makers for the segment is/are: Moishe Gubin, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and Greg Flamion, Chief Financial Officer.

Basic and Diluted Income Per Common Share
The Company calculates basic income per common share by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. At September 30, 2025 and 2024, there were 42,478,755and 44,816,085OP units outstanding which were potentially dilutive securities. During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025, and 2024 the assumed conversion of the OP units had no impact on basic income per share.
Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are translated into U.S. dollars use exchange rates in effect at the end of the period, and revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies that are translated into U.S. dollars use average rates of exchange in effect during the related period. Gains or losses resulting from translation are included in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, a component of equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. The effects of transaction gains or losses, if any, are included in other income, in the condensed consolidated statements of income.
Fair Value Measurement
The Company measures and discloses the fair value of nonfinancial and financial assets and liabilities utilizing a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to a fair value measurement are considered to be observable or unobservable in a marketplace. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company's market assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. These inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy:
● Level 1-quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
● Level 2-quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
● Level 3-fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont.)
The Company measures fair value using a set of standardized procedures that are outlined herein for all assets and liabilities which are required to be measured at fair value. When available, the Company utilizes quoted market prices from an independent third-party source to determine fair value and classifies such items in Level 1. In instances where a market price is available, but the instrument is in an inactive or over-the-counter market, the Company consistently applies the dealer (market maker) pricing estimate and classifies the asset or liability in Level 2. If quoted market prices or inputs are not available, fair value measurements are based upon valuation models that utilize current market or independently sourced market inputs, such as interest rates, option volatilities, credit spreads and/or market capitalization rates. Items valued using such internally generated valuation techniques are classified according to the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. As a result, the asset or liability could be classified in either Level 2 or Level 3 even though there may be some significant inputs that are readily observable. Internal fair value models and techniques used by the Company include discounted cash flow valuation models.
Real Estate Investments - Held for Sale
As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company had one property included in real estate investments which was held for sale and carried at the lower of its net book value or fair value on a non-recurring basis on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company's real estate investments held for sale were classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based payment awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation ("ASC 718"). ASC 718 requires that the cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements. ASC 718 requires all entities to apply a fair value-based measurement method in accounting for share-based payment transactions. The Company recognizes share-based payments over the vesting period.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2024-03, "Expense Disaggregation Disclosures." ASU 2024-03 requires disclosure to disaggregate prescribed expenses within relevant income statement captions. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and for interim periods after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the changes to its existing disclosures.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets The ASU provides an optional practical expedient for estimating future credit losses based on current conditions as of the balance sheet date and assuming those conditions do not change over the remaining life of the accounts receivable. This standard is effective January 1, 2026. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software.

Change of Control (Cont.)
For the purpose of this provision, a transfer of control means a change of control of the BVI Company such that the BVI Company has a controlling stockholder that is not any of the "controlling stockholders" and/or is in the hands of any of their immediate family members (including through trusts that the controlling stockholders and/or any of their immediate family members are the beneficiaries under and/or are their managers). In this regard, "control" is defined in the Israeli Companies Law.
Series D Bonds
In June 2023, the BVI Company completed an initial offering on the TASE of Series D Bonds with a par value of NIS 82.9million ($22.9million). These Series D Bonds were issued at par. Offering and issuance costs of approximately $0.6million were incurred at closing. In July 2023, the BVI Company issued an additional NIS 70million ($19.2million) in Series D Bonds. On February 8, 2024, the BVI Company issued additional Series D Bonds with a par value of NIS 100.0million (gross) and raised a net amount of NIS 98.2million ($25.7million), offering and issuance costs of approximately $.05million incurred at closing.
Exchange of Series D Bonds for Series A Bonds
In September 2024, the Company made an exchange tender offer of outstanding Series D Bonds for series A Bonds. The interest rate on Series A Bonds is 6.97% per annum. The exchange offer rate was 1.069964Series A Bonds per Series D Bonds. As a result of this offer, 47.3million NIS Series D Bonds ($12.7million) were exchanged for 50.6million NIS Series A Bonds ($13.6million).
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the outstanding balance of the Series D Bonds were $53.2million and $51.5million, respectively. Increase in outstanding balance was due to a change in exchange rate.
Interest
The Series D Bonds initially bore interest at a rate of 9.1% per annum. In June 2023, Standard & Poor's provided an initial rating for the Series D Bonds of ilA.
Interest on the Series D Bonds is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 31 and September 30 of each year. The interest rate may increase if certain financial ratios are not achieved, as discussed below.
Payment Terms
The principal amount of the Series D Bonds is payable in three annual installments due on September 30 of each of the years 2024 through 2026. The first two principal payments are equal to 6% of the original principal amount of the Series D Bonds, and the last principal payments is equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Series D Bonds.
Financial Covenants
Until the date of full repayment of the Series D Bonds, the BVI Company must comply with certain financial covenants described below. The application of the covenants is based on the financial statements of the BVI Company as prepared under the IFRS accounting method. The financial covenants are as follows:
● The stockholders' equity of the BVI Company may not be less than $230million.
● The ratio of the condensed consolidated stockholders' equity of the BVI Company to its total condensed consolidated balance sheet may not be less than 25%.
● The ratio of the adjusted net financial debt to adjusted EBITDA of the BVI Company (for the past four quarters) may not exceed 12.

Dividend Restrictions
The indenture for the Series D Bonds limits the amount of dividends that may be paid by the BVI Company to its stockholders. The BVI Company may not make any distribution unless all of the following conditions are fulfilled (with all amounts calculated under IFRS):
● The distribution amount may not exceed 80% of the net profit after tax that is recognized in the most recent condensed consolidated financial statements of the BVI Company, less profits or losses arising from a change in accounting methods, net of revaluation profits/losses (that have not yet been realized) arising from a change in the fair value of the assets with respect to the fair value in the prior reporting period.
● The ratio of the consolidated stockholders' equity of the BVI Company to its total consolidated balance sheet may not be less than 30%.
● The distributable profits for which no distribution was performed in a specific year will be added to the following quarters.
● The BVI Company's equity at the end of the last quarter, before the distribution of dividends, less the dividends distributed, may not be less than $250million.
The BVI Company meets the financial conditions described above, and the BVI Company is not in violation of all and/or any of its material undertakings to the holders of the Series D Bonds as of September 30, 2025.
Increase in Interest Rate
In the event that:
(i) the stockholders' equity of the BVI Company (excluding minority interests) is less than $250million;
(ii) the ratio of the adjusted net financial debt to adjusted EBITDA (for the latest four quarters) exceeds 11;
(iii) the ratio of the consolidated equity of the BVI Company to total consolidated assets of the BVI Company is below 27%; or
then, in each case, the interest on the Series D Bonds will increase by an additional 0.5% annually, but only once with respect to each failure to meet these requirements. Compliance with these financial covenants is measured quarterly.
Additionally, if a decline in the rating of the Series D Bonds should take place, then for each single ratings decrease, the interest will be increased by 0.25% per year, up to a maximum increment of 1.25% annually.
In any case, the total increase in the interest rate as a result of the above adjustments will not exceed 1.5% per year. The increases in the interest rate will also be reversed if the BVI Company regains compliance.

Additional Bonds
The BVI Company can issue additional Series D Bonds at any time not to exceed a maximum outstanding of NIS 450million (or $136million).

| ● | the market value of the balance of the Series D Bonds in circulation which will be determined based on the average closing price of the Series D Bonds for thirty (30) trading days before the date on which the board of directors resolves to undertake the early redemption; |
| ● | the par value of the Series D Bonds available for early redemption in circulation (i.e., the principal balance of the Series D Bonds plus accrued interest until the date of the actual early redemption); or |
| ● | the balance of the payments under the Series D Bonds (consisting of future payments of principal and interest), when discounted to their present value based on the annual yield of the Israeli government bonds plus an "additional rate." The additional rate will be 1.0% per annum for early repayment performed by September 30, 2024, and 3.0% thereafter. |

NOTE 8. Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
The Company guarantees from time-to-time obligations of its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Contingencies
We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings, that are not covered by insurance and expected to be resolved within policy limits, other than the following:
In March 2020, Joseph Schwartz, Rosie Schwartz and certain companies owned by them filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against Moishe Gubin, Michael Blisko, the Predecessor Company and 21 of its subsidiaries, as well as the operators of 17 of the facilities operated at our properties. The complaint was related to the Predecessor Company's acquisition of 16 properties located in Arkansas and Kentucky that were completed between May 2018 and April 2019 and the attempt to purchase an additional five properties located in Massachusetts. The complaint was dismissed by the Court in 2020 on jurisdictional grounds. The plaintiffs did not file an appeal with respect to this action, and the time for an appeal has expired.
In August 2020, Joseph Schwartz, Rosie Schwartz and several companies controlled by them filed a second complaint in the Circuit Court in Pulaski County, Arkansas. The second complaint had nearly identical claims as the federal case, but was limited to matters related to the Predecessor Company's acquisition of properties located in Arkansas. The sellers, which were affiliates of Skyline Health Care, had encountered financial difficulties and requested the Predecessor Company to acquire these properties. The defendants have filed an answer denying the plaintiffs' claims and asserting counterclaims based on breach of contract. This case has been dismissed without prejudice.
In January 2021, Joseph Schwartz, Rosie Schwartz and certain companies owned by them filed a third complaint in Illinois state court in Cook County, Illinois, which has nearly identical claims to the initial federal case, but was limited to claims related to the Kentucky and Massachusetts properties. The complaint has not been properly served on any of the defendants, and, accordingly, the defendants did not respond to the complaint. Instead, the defendants filed a motion to quash service of process. On January 11, 2023, the Cook County Circuit Court entered an order granting such motion, quashing service of process on all defendants. In March 2023, the plaintiffs filed a new complaint and again attempted to serve it on the defendants. It is the defendants' position that service was (once again, potentially) defective and sought a dismissal of the matter for want of prosecution by Joseph Schwartz, Rosie Schwartz and certain companies owned by them. The dismissal was granted, but has been appealed to the Illinois Appellate Court, with no substantive movement on the matter to date.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 8. Commitments and Contingencies (Cont.)
In April of 2024, Joseph Schwartz, Rosie Schwartz and several companies controlled by them filed a third complaint in the Circuit Court in Pulaski County, Arkansas. This third complaint had nearly identical claims as the federal case and the Illinois state court matter.
In each of these complaints, the plaintiffs asserted claims for fraud, breach of contract and rescission arising out of the defendants' alleged failure to perform certain post-closing obligations under the purchase contracts. We have potential direct exposure for these claims because the subsidiaries of the Predecessor Company that were named as defendants are now subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. Additionally, the Operating Partnership is potentially liable for the claims made against Moishe Gubin, Michael Blisko and the Predecessor Company pursuant to the provisions of the contribution agreement, under which the Operating Partnership assumed all of the liabilities of the Predecessor Company and agreed to indemnify the Predecessor Company and its affiliates for such liabilities. We and the named defendants believe that the claims set forth in the complaints are without merit. The named defendants intend to vigorously defend the litigation and to assert counterclaims against the plaintiffs based on their failure to fulfill their obligations under the purchase contracts, interim management agreement, and operations transfer agreements. We believe this matter will be resolved without a material adverse effect to the Company.
As noted above, the March 2020, January 2021 and April 2024 complaints also related to the Predecessor Company's planned acquisition of five properties located in Massachusetts. A subsidiary of the Predecessor Company purchased loans related to these properties in 2018 for a price of $7.74million with the expectation that the subsidiaries would acquire title to the properties and the loans would be retired. The subsidiary subsequently advanced $3.1million under the loans to satisfy other liabilities related to the properties. The planned acquisition/settlement with the sellers/owners and/borrowers was not consummated because the underlying tenants of the properties surrendered their licenses to operate healthcare facilities on these properties.
The Predecessor Company intends to institute legal proceedings to collect the outstanding amount of these loans and to assert related claims against the sellers and their principals for the unpaid principal balances as well as protective advances and collection costs. In connection with enforcing their rights, in July 2022, the Company foreclosed, and (as lender) sold four of the five properties at auction for the total amount of $4.4million. In December 2022, the Company took title on the fifth property with an estimated fair value of $1.2million.
Note 9. Equity Incentive Plan
The Company has adopted the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan permits the grant of both options qualifying under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code ("incentive stock options") and options not so qualifying, and the grant of stock appreciation rights, stock awards, incentive awards, performance units, and other equity-based awards. A total of 250,000shares had been authorized to be granted under the Plan. On May 30, 2024, shareholders approved an amendment to increase the number of shares authorized to be granted under the plan to 1,000,000shares. As of September 30, 2025, 968,650shares were available for grant. On January 31, 2025, 6,450shares were used from the incentive plan as an employee bonus. No other shares were issued during the nine-month period September 30, 2025.

The note was issued by certain unaffiliated tenants. It bears interest at 7% per annum, payable annually. The principal amount of the note becomes payable 120 days after the date on which tenants are first able to exercise the purchase option for the properties contained in their lease. The purchase option becomes exercisable upon the Company's ability to deliver fee simple title to the properties. If the tenants do not exercise the option within this period, then the outstanding balance of the note will thereafter be payable in thirty-six (36) equal monthly installments of principal and interest.
NOTE 12. Income Taxes
The Company elected and qualified to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes commencing with the year ended December 31, 2022.
As a REIT, the Company generally is not subject to federal income tax on its net taxable income that it distributes currently to its stockholders. Under the Code, REITs are subject to numerous organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that they distribute each year at least 90% of their REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding any net capital gains. If the Company fails to qualify for taxation as a REIT in any taxable year and does not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, the Company's income for that year will be taxed at regular corporate rates, and the Company would be disqualified from taxation as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which the Company ceased to qualify as a REIT. Even if the Company qualifies as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, it may still be subject to state and local taxes on its income and assets and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.
The Company follows recent accounting guidance relating to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which sets out a consistent framework to determine the appropriate level of tax reserves to maintain for uncertain tax positions.
A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-than-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to management's judgment. Management is not aware of any uncertain tax positions that would have material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 13. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company is required to disclose the fair value of financials instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The fair value of short-term financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their carrying value on the condensed consolidated balance sheets due to their short-term nature. The Company's foreclosed real estate is recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis and is included in real estate investments on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Estimates of fair value are determined based on a variety of information, including the use of available appraisals, estimates of market values by licensed appraisers or local real estate brokers and knowledge and experience of management.

Overview
Strawberry Fields REIT, Inc. (the "Company") is engaged in the ownership, acquisition, financing and triple-net leasing of skilled nursing facilities and other post-acute healthcare properties. Currently, our portfolio consists of 132 healthcare properties with an aggregate of 15,542 licensed beds. We hold fee title to 131 of these properties and hold one property under a long-term lease. These properties are located in Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas. We generate substantially all our revenues by leasing our properties to tenants under long-term leases primarily on a triple-net basis, under which the tenant pays the cost of real estate taxes, insurance and other operating costs of the facility and capital expenditures. Each healthcare facility located at our properties is managed by a qualified operator with an experienced management team.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Overview (continued)
We employ a disciplined approach in our investment strategy by investing in healthcare real estate assets. We seek to invest in assets that will provide attractive opportunities for dividend growth and appreciation in asset value, while maintaining balance sheet strength and liquidity, thereby creating long-term stockholder value. We expect to grow our portfolio by diversifying our investments by tenant, facility type and geography.
We are entitled to monthly rent paid by the tenants and we do not receive any income or bear any expenses from the operations of such facilities. As of September 30, 2025, the aggregate annualized average base rent under the leases for our properties was approximately $142.3 million.
We elected a REIT status for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2022. We are organized in an UPREIT structure in which we own substantially all of our assets and conduct substantially all of our business through the Operating Partnership. We are the general partner of the Operating Partnership and as of the date of the report own approximately 22.7% of outstanding OP units.
Third Quarter Acquisition Activity
On April 4, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition for a skilled nursing facility with 112 licensed beds near Houston, Texas. The acquisition was for $11.5 million. The Company funded the acquisition utilizing cash from the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The facility was leased to an existing third party operator and added to their Master Lease (Texas Master Lease 2). The initial annual base rents are $1.3 million dollars and subject to 3% annual rent increases.

Related Party Tenants
As a landlord, the Company does not control the operations of its tenants, including related party tenants, and is not able to cause its tenants to take any specific actions to address trends in occupancy at the facilities operated by its tenants, other than to monitor occupancy and income of its tenants, discuss trends in occupancy with tenants and possible responses, and, in the event of a default, exercise its rights as a landlord. However, Moishe Gubin, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Michael Blisko, one of our directors, as the controlling members of 67 of our tenants and related operators, have the ability to obtain information regarding these tenants and related operators and cause the tenants and operators to take actions, including with respect to occupancy.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
To qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding any net capital gains, to our stockholders on an annual basis. Accordingly, we intend to make, but are not contractually bound to make, regular quarterly dividends to common stockholders from cash flow from operating activities. All such dividends are at the discretion of our board of directors.
As of September 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and equivalents of $55.9 million. We also had the ability to offer an additional $75.0 million in Series A Bonds, $115.6 million in Series C Bonds and an additional $82.9 million in Series D Bonds subject to compliance with covenants and market conditions. Bond B does not have a ceiling for additional issuances; however, the series is subject to compliance with covenants and market conditions.
Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including ongoing commitments to repay borrowings, fund and maintain our assets and operations, make distributions to our stockholders and other general business needs. Our primary sources of cash include operating cash flows, stock sales and borrowings. Our primary uses of cash include funding acquisitions and investments consistent with our investment strategy, repaying principal and interest on any outstanding borrowings, making distributions to our equity holders, funding our operations and paying accrued expenses.
Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for the costs of acquiring additional healthcare properties and principal and interest payments on our debt. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements through various sources of capital, including future equity issuances or debt offerings, net cash provided by operations, long-term mortgage indebtedness and other secured and unsecured borrowings.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
We may utilize various types of debt to finance a portion of our acquisition activities, including long-term, fixed-rate mortgage loans, variable-rate term loans, notes payable and secured revolving lines of credit. As of September 30, 2025, on a condensed consolidated basis, we had total indebtedness of approximately $779.4 million, primarily consisting of $313.9 million in Series A, Series B, Series C and Series D Bonds outstanding, $256.1 million in HUD guaranteed debt, $164.5 million in commercial mortgages loans and a $44.8 million note payable. Under our bonds and our commercial mortgages loans, we are subject to continuing covenants, and future indebtedness that the Company may incur may contain similar provisions. In the event of a default, the lenders could accelerate the timing of payments under the debt obligations, and we may be required to repay such debt with capital from other sources, which may not be available on attractive terms, or at all, which would have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition, results of operations and ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
Through 2029 there are six balloon payment obligations consisting of a payment of $74.9 million due under the Series C Bonds in 2026, a payment of $91.4 million due under the Series A Bonds in 2026, a payment of $53.2 million due under the Series D Bonds in 2026, a payment of $57.1 million due under our commercial bank mortgage loan facility due in 2027, a payment of $36.6 million due under our commercial bank mortgage loan facility due in 2028, a payment of $83.0 million due under the Series B Bonds in 2029 and a payment of $52.7 million due under our commercial bank mortgage loan facility due in 2029. We may also obtain additional financing that contains balloon payment obligations. These types of obligations may adversely affect us, including our cash flows, financial condition and ability to make distributions.
The Company believes that its overall level of indebtedness is appropriate for the Company's business in light of its cash flow from operations and value of its properties and is generally typical for owners of multiple healthcare properties. The Company expects to generate sufficient positive cash flow from operations to meet its ongoing debt service obligations and the distribution requirements for maintaining REIT status, and to be able to refinance it debt to the extent necessary to meet it balloon payment obligations.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, cash provided by financing activities was $24.0 million. This primarily consisted of $62.8 million in proceeds from the issuance of Series D and Series A Bonds, along with $2.3 million in ATM proceeds. These inflows were offset by $20.6 million in principal debt payments on bonds and senior debt, $17.2 million distribution to the non-controlling interest holders, $2.5 million in dividends paid to common shareholders and $0.9 million in common stock retirement.
Indebtedness
Mortgage Loans Guaranteed by HUD
As of September 30, 2025, we had non-recourse mortgage loans of $256.1 million from third party lenders that were guaranteed by HUD.
Each loan is secured by first mortgages on certain specified properties, interests in the leases for these properties and second liens on the operator's assets. In the event of default on any single loan, the loan agreement provides that the applicable lender may require the tenants for the property securing the loan to make all rental payments directly to the lender. In exchange for the HUD guarantee, we pay HUD, on an annual basis, 0.65% of the principal balance of each loan as mortgage insurance premium, in addition to the interest rate denominated in each loan agreement. As a result, the overall average interest rate paid with respect to the HUD guaranteed loans as of September 30, 2025, was 3.91% per annum (including the mortgage insurance payments). The loans have an average maturity of 25.0 years.
Commercial Bank Term Loan

The loan agreement provides for monthly payments of principal and interest based on a 20-year amortization with a balloon payment due in March 2027. The rate is based on the one-month SOFR plus a margin of 3.5% and a floor of 4% (as of September 30, 2025, rate was 7.74%). On June 30, 2025, the Company paid down $30 million dollars of the outstanding loan. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, total outstanding principal amount was $62.2 million and $95.1 million, respectively.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Funds From Operations ("FFO")
The Company believes that funds from operations ("FFO"), as defined in accordance with the definition used by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), and adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO") are important non-GAAP supplemental measures of our operating performance. Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation (except on land), such accounting presentation implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market and other conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT that uses historical cost accounting for depreciation could be less informative. Thus, NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs that excludes historical cost depreciation and amortization, among other items, from net income, as defined by GAAP. FFO is defined as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from real estate dispositions, plus real estate depreciation and amortization. AFFO is defined as FFO excluding the impact of straight-line rent, above-/below-market leases, non-cash compensation and certain non-recurring items. We believe that the use of FFO, combined with the required GAAP presentations, improves the understanding of our operating results among investors and makes comparisons of operating results among REITs more meaningful. We consider FFO and AFFO to be useful measures for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding the applicable items listed above, FFO and AFFO can help investors compare our operating performance between periods or as compared to other companies.
While FFO and AFFO are relevant and widely used measures of operating performance of REITs, they do not represent cash flows from operations or net income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to those measures in evaluating our liquidity or operating performance. FFO and AFFO also do not consider the costs associated with capital expenditures related to our real estate assets nor do they purport to be indicative of cash available to fund our future cash requirements. Further, our computation of FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to FFO and AFFO reported by other REITs that do not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition or define AFFO differently than we do.
The following table reconciles our calculations of FFO and AFFO for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, to net income the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, for the same periods (in thousands except for per share amounts):

Subsequent Events
On November 4, 2025, the Company entered into a purchase agreement for a skilled nursing facility with 60 licensed beds near Grove, Oklahoma. The acquisition is for $3.0 million. The Company will fund the acquisition utilizing cash from the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The initial annual base rents will be $0.3 million dollars and subject to 3% annual rent increases. The Company expects to close this acquisition before year-end.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information set forth in the Accounting Standards Codification, as published by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions regarding future events that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We base these estimates on our experience and assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, if our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions or other matters had been different, we may have applied a different accounting treatment, resulting in a different presentation of our financial statements. We periodically reevaluate our estimates and assumptions, and in the event they prove to be different from actual results, we make adjustments in subsequent periods to reflect more current estimates and assumptions about matters that are inherently uncertain. Please refer to "Critical Accounting Policies" in the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" section of our 2024 Annual Report on 10-K filed on March 13, 2025 for further information regarding the critical accounting policies that affect our more significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There have been no material changes in such critical accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks
Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. In pursuing our business and investment objectives, we expect that the primary market risk to which we will be exposed is interest rate risk.
We may be exposed to the effects of interest rate changes primarily as a result of long-term debt used to acquire properties. As of September 30, 2025, we had $91.4 million outstanding under our Series A Bonds, which bear interest at a fixed 6.97% per annum, we had $94.4 million outstanding under our Series B Bonds, which bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.70% per annum, we had $75.0 million outstanding under our Series C Bonds, which bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.7% per annum, $53.2 million outstanding under our Series D Bonds, which bear interest at a fixed rate of 9.1% per annum, and $465.4 million in senior debt and note payable, of which $161.8 million (20.8% of total debt) are floating rate debt, which bears interest at a variable rate equal to one-month SOFR plus a margin. At September 30, 2025, one-month SOFR was 4.24%. Assuming no increase in the amount of our variable interest rate debt, if one-month SOFR increased 100 basis points, our annual cash flow would decrease by approximately $1.6 million. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. To achieve our objectives, we may borrow at fixed rates or variable rates. We also may enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps and caps in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks (continued)
In addition to changes in interest rates, the value of our future investments is subject to fluctuations based on changes in local and regional economic conditions, changes in currency rates between the Israeli Shekel and the U.S. Dollar and changes in the creditworthiness of tenants/operators, which may affect our ability to refinance our debt if necessary.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act") that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is processed, recorded, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and regulations and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As of September 30, 2025, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, regarding the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, at the reasonable assurance level, as of September 30, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings, that are not covered by insurance and expected to be resolved within policy limits, other than the following:
In March 2020, Joseph Schwartz, Rosie Schwartz and certain companies owned by them filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against Moishe Gubin, Michael Blisko, the Predecessor Company and 21 of its subsidiaries, as well as the operators of 17 of the facilities operated at our properties. The complaint was related to the Predecessor Company's acquisition of 16 properties located in Arkansas and Kentucky that were completed between May 2018 and April 2019 and the attempt to purchase an additional 5 properties located in Massachusetts. The complaint was dismissed by the court in 2020 for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. The plaintiffs did not file an appeal with respect to this action, and the time for an appeal has expired.
In August 2020, Joseph Schwartz, Rosie Schwartz and several companies controlled by them filed a second complaint in the Circuit Court in Pulaski County, Arkansas. The second complaint had nearly identical claims as the federal case, but was limited to matters related to the Predecessor Company's acquisition of properties located in Arkansas. The sellers, which were affiliates of Skyline Health Care, had encountered financial difficulties and requested the Predecessor Company to acquire these properties. The defendants have filed an answer denying the plaintiffs' claims and asserting counterclaims based on breach of contract. This case has been dismissed without prejudice.
In January 2021, Joseph Schwartz, Rosie Schwartz and certain companies owned by them filed a third complaint in Illinois state court in Cook County, Illinois, which has nearly identical claims to the initial federal case but was limited to claims related to the Kentucky and Massachusetts properties. The complaint has not been properly served on any of the defendants, and, accordingly, the defendants did not respond to the complaint. Instead, the defendants filed a motion to quash service of process. On January 11, 2023, the Cook County Circuit Court entered an order granting such motion, quashing service of process on all defendants. In March 2023, the plaintiffs filed a new complaint and again attempted to serve it on the defendants. It is the defendants' position that service was (once again, potentially) defective and sought a dismissal of the matter for want of prosecution by Joseph Schwartz, Rosie Schwartz and certain companies owned by them. The dismissal was granted, but has been appealed to the Illinois Appellate Court, and now has been dismissed.
In April of 2024 . Joseph Schwartz, Rosie Schwartz and several companies controlled by them filed a third complaint in the Circuit Court in Pulaski County, Arkansas. This third complaint had nearly identical claims as the federal case and the Illinois state court matter.
In each of these complaints, the plaintiffs asserted claims for fraud, breach of contract and rescission arising out of the defendants' alleged failure to perform certain post-closing obligations under the purchase contracts. We have potential direct exposure for these claims because the subsidiaries of the Predecessor Company that were named as defendants are now subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. Additionally, the Operating Partnership is potentially liable for the claims made against Moishe Gubin, Michael Blisko and the Predecessor Company pursuant to the provisions of the contribution agreement, under which the Operating Partnership assumed all of the liabilities of the Predecessor Company and agreed to indemnify the Predecessor Company and its affiliates for such liabilities. We and the named defendants believe that the claims set forth in the complaints are without merit. The named defendants intend to vigorously defend the litigation and to assert counterclaims against the plaintiffs based on their failure to fulfil their obligations under the purchase contracts, interim management agreement, and operations transfer agreements. We believe this matter will be resolved without a material adverse effect to the Company.
As noted above, the March 2020 and January 2021 and April 2024 complaints also related to the Predecessor Company's planned acquisition of five properties located in Massachusetts. A subsidiary of the Predecessor Company purchased loans related to these properties in 2018 for a price of $7.74 million with the expectation that the subsidiaries would acquire title to the properties and the loans would be retired. The subsidiaries subsequently advanced $3.1 million under the loans to satisfy other liabilities related to the properties. The planned acquisition/settlement with the sellers/owners and borrowers was not consummated because the underlying tenants of the properties surrendered their licenses to operate healthcare facilities on these properties.
The Predecessor Company intends to institute legal proceedings to collect the outstanding amount of these loans and to assert related claims against the sellers and their principals for the unpaid principal balances as well as protective advances and collection costs. In connection with enforcing their rights, in July 2022, the Company foreclosed, and (as lender) sold four of the five properties at auction for the total amount of $4.4 million. In December 2022, the Company took title on the fifth property with an estimated fair value of $1.2 million.
