1. Basis of Presentation
Organization and Business
Sonida Senior Living, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or “Sonida”), is a leading owner, operator and investor in independent living, assisted living and memory care communities and services for senior adults in the United States in terms of resident capacity. The Company owns, operates, manages and invests in senior housing communities throughout the United States. As of March 31, 2025, the Company owned, managed or invested in 94 senior housing communities in 20 states with an aggregate capacity of approximately 10,000 residents1, including 81 owned senior housing communities (including four owned through joint venture investments in consolidated entities, four owned through a joint venture investment in an unconsolidated entity, and one unoccupied) and 13 communities that the Company manages on behalf of a third-party.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Sonida Senior Living, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and other entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company reports investments in unconsolidated entities over whose operating and financial policies it has the ability to exercise significant influence under the equity method of accounting.
The Company evaluates its potential variable interest entity (“VIE”) relationships under certain criteria as provided for in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). ASC 810 broadly defines a VIE as an entity with one or more of the following characteristics: (a) the total equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance the entity's activities without additional subordinated financial support; (b) as a group, the holders of the equity investment at risk lack (i) the ability to make decisions about the entity's activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; or (c) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportional to their economic interests, and substantially all of the entity's activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights. The Company performs this evaluation on an ongoing basis and consolidates any VIEs for which the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary, as determined by the Company's power to direct the VIEs activities and the obligation to absorb its losses or the right to receive its benefits, which are potentially significant to the VIE. As of March 31, 2025, the Company has a joint venture, Stone JV LLC (“Stone JV”) which is treated as an unconsolidated entity. See “Note 3–Investments.”
As of March 31, 2025, the Company was a 51 % owner in two joint ventures (collectively, the “Palatine JVs”) with affiliates of Palatine Capital Partners. The Company has evaluated its investment in the Palatine JVs under ASC 810. The Company has determined that it has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and is the primary beneficiary of the VIE in accordance with ASC 810. Accordingly, the Company has consolidated the activity of the Palatine JVs into its consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Interim Unaudited Financial Information
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted from this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The results for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of future financial results. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, including normal recurring items, necessary to present fairly our condensed consolidated financial position as of
1 Capacity disclosures in these footnotes to the condensed consolidated financial statements are outside the scope of our independent registered accounting firm’s review.

March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and our condensed consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts previously reflected in the prior year condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to our March 31, 2025 presentation. The condensed consolidated statements of operations as of March 31, 2024 reflects reclassifying transaction, transition and restructuring costs from “General and administrative expense” to “Transaction, transition and restructuring costs.”
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. These estimates include such items related to the accounting for: income taxes, including assessments of probabilities of realization of income tax benefits; other contingencies; allowances for uncollectible accounts receivable; impairment of long-lived assets, including applicable cash flow projections, holding periods and fair value evaluations; stock-based compensation; fair values of assets and liabilities acquired in asset acquisitions, fair values of our equity method investments; and depreciation and amortization, including determination of estimated useful lives. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash
The following table sets forth our cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash (in thousands):

| Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash | $ | $ | |||||||||
Long-Lived Assets
Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. At each balance sheet date, the Company reviews the carrying value of its property and equipment to determine if facts and circumstances suggest that they may be impaired or that the depreciation period may need to be changed. The Company considers internal factors such as net operating losses along with external factors relating to each asset, including contract changes, local market developments, and other publicly available information to determine whether impairment indicators exist.
If an indicator of impairment is identified, recoverability of an asset group is assessed by comparing its carrying amount to the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group through operation or disposition, calculated utilizing the lowest level of identifiable cash flows. If this comparison indicates that the carrying amount of an asset group is not recoverable, the Company estimates fair value of the asset group and records an impairment loss when the carrying
10
amount exceeds fair value. There were no
Leases
We determine if a contract contains a lease at its inception based on whether or not the Company has the right to control the asset during the contract period and other facts and circumstances. We are the lessee in a lease contract when we obtain the right to control the asset. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and are included in other assets, net in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease and are included in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. When determining the lease term, we include renewal or termination options that we are reasonably certain to exercise. Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less at inception are not recorded in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. As the rates implicit in our leases are not readily determinable, we use our local incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. When our contracts contain lease and non-lease components, we account for both components as a single lease component.
Acquisitions
We make certain judgments to determine whether a transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or an asset acquisition. These judgments include the assessment of the inputs, processes, and outputs associated with an acquired set of activities and whether the fair value of total assets acquired is concentrated to a single identifiable asset or group of similar assets. We account for a transaction as a business combination when the assets acquired include inputs and one or more substantive processes that, together, significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs and the total fair value of the assets acquired are not concentrated to a single identifiable asset or group of similar assets. Otherwise, we account for the transaction as an asset acquisition.
Upon the acquisition of new communities accounted for as an acquisition of assets, we recognize the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date, measured at their relative fair values using Level 3 inputs at the date of acquisition including estimates of appropriate discount rates and capitalization rate once we have determined the fair value of each of these assets and liabilities. Relative fair values may be based on appraisals, internal analyses of recently acquired and existing comparable properties in the Company’s portfolio, other market data, and internal marketing and leasing activities. The acquisition date is the date on which we obtain control of the real estate property. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed consist of land, inclusive of associated rights, buildings, assumed debt, and identified intangible assets and liabilities. Above-market and below-market in-place lease values of acquired properties are recorded based on the net present value of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) Sonida’s estimate of the fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place lease measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable terms of the leases (including the below-market fixed-rate renewal period, if applicable). Favorable above-market in-place leases represent the value of the contractual monthly rental payments that are more than the current market rent at communities as acquired in recent acquisitions. Favorable above-market in-place leases are amortized to depreciation and amortization expense on a straight-line basis over their estimated remaining lease terms and are included in intangible assets, net on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Unfavorable below-market in-place leases represent the value of the contractual monthly rental payments that are less than the current market rent at communities as acquired in recent acquisitions. Unfavorable below-market in-place leases are amortized to depreciation and amortization expense on a straight-line basis over their estimated remaining lease terms, and are included in other long-term liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
11
Investment in Unconsolidated Entities
The Company reports investments in unconsolidated entities that it has the ability to exercise significant influence under the equity method of accounting. The initial carrying amount of investments in unconsolidated entities is based on the amount paid to purchase the investment. The Company's reported share of earnings from an unconsolidated entity is adjusted for the impact, if any, of basis differences between its carrying amount of the equity investment and its share of the investment’s underlying assets. Distributions received from an investee are recognized as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment.
The Company evaluates the realization of its investments in ventures accounted for using the equity method if circumstances indicate that the Company's investments are other than temporarily impaired. A current fair value of an investment that is less than its carrying amount may indicate a loss in value of the investment. If the Company determines that an equity method investment is other than temporarily impaired, it is recorded at its fair value with an impairment charge recognized for the difference between its carrying amount and fair value.
Revenue Recognition
Resident revenue consists of fees for basic housing and certain support services and fees associated with additional housing and expanded support requirements such as assisted living care, memory care, and ancillary services. Basic housing and certain support services revenue is recorded when services are rendered, and amounts billed are due from residents in the period in which the rental and other services are provided. Residency agreements are generally short term in nature with durations of one year or less and are typically terminable by either party, under certain circumstances, upon providing 30 days’ notice, unless state law provides otherwise, with resident fees billed monthly in advance. Revenue for certain ancillary services is recognized as services are provided, and includes fees for services such as medication management, daily living activities, beautician/barber, laundry, television, guest meals, pets, and parking, which are generally billed monthly in arrears.
The Company’s senior housing communities have residency agreements that generally require the resident to pay a community fee and other amounts prior to moving into the community, which are initially recorded by the Company as deferred revenue. Community fees are recognized evenly over the term of the residency agreements which is generally 12 months. The Company had contract liabilities for deferred fees paid by our residents prior to the month housing and support services were to be provided totaling $6.4 million and $5.4 million, respectively, which is reported as deferred income within current liabilities of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2025, $4.9 million of deferred revenue has been recognized from the prior year. As of March 31, 2024, $3.6 million of deferred revenue was recognized from the year ended December 31, 2023.
Revenues from Medicaid programs accounted for 8.4 % and 11.6 % of the Company’s revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Resident revenues for Medicaid residents were recorded at the reimbursement rates as the rates were set prospectively by the applicable state upon the filing of an annual cost report. None of the Company’s communities were providers of services under the Medicare program for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.
Laws and regulations governing the Medicaid program are complex and subject to interpretation. The Company believes that it is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and is not aware of any pending or threatened investigations involving allegations of potential wrongdoing that would have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements. While no such regulatory inquiries have been made, compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action including fines, penalties, and exclusion from the Medicaid program.
The Company has management agreements whereby it manages certain communities on behalf of third-party owners and certain community investments under contracts that provide for periodic management fee payments to the Company. The Company has determined that all community management activities are a single performance obligation, which is satisfied over time as the services are rendered. Such revenue is included in “management fees” on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company is also reimbursed by the owners of the communities for costs incurred. Such revenue is included in “managed community reimbursement revenue” on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The related costs are included in “managed community reimbursement expense” on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. See “Note 9–Revenue.”

Credit Risk and Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company’s resident accounts receivable are generally due within 30 days after the date billed. Accounts receivable are reported net of an allowance for credit losses of $8.6 million and $7.9 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and represent the Company’s estimate of the amount that ultimately will be collected. The adequacy of the Company’s allowance for credit losses is reviewed on an ongoing basis, using historical payment trends, write-off experience, analyses of receivable portfolios by payor source and aging of receivables, as well as a review of specific accounts, and adjustments are made to the allowance, as necessary. Credit losses on resident receivables have historically been within management’s estimates, and management believes that the allowance for credit losses adequately provides for expected losses.
Concentration of Credit Risk and Business Risk
Substantially all of our revenues are derived from senior living communities we own and senior living communities that we manage. Senior living operations are particularly sensitive to adverse economic, social and competitive conditions and trends, including the effects of pandemics, which have previously adversely affected our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We have a concentration of owned properties operating in Texas (19 ), Indiana (12 ), and Ohio (12 ), which represented approximately 22 %, 13 %, and 18 %, respectively, of our resident revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and approximately 23 %, 19 %, and 20 %, respectively, of our resident revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method and current income taxes are recorded based on amounts refundable or payable in the current year. The effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 differ from the statutory tax rates due to state income taxes, permanent tax differences, and changes in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
Deferred income taxes are recorded based on the estimated future tax effects of loss carryforwards and temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates that are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the Company expects those carryforwards and temporary differences to be recovered or settled. Management regularly evaluates the future realization of deferred tax assets and provides a valuation allowance, if considered necessary, based on such evaluation. As part of the evaluation, management has evaluated taxable income in carryback years, future reversals of taxable temporary differences, feasible tax planning strategies, and future expectations of income. The valuation allowance reduces the Company’s net deferred tax assets to the amount that is “more likely than not” (i.e., a greater than 50% likelihood) to be realized. The Company has a full valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. However, in the event that the Company were to ultimately determine that it would be more likely than not that the Company would realize the benefit of deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amounts, adjustments to deferred tax assets would increase net income in the period such determination was made. The benefits of the net deferred tax assets might not be realized if actual results differ from expectations.
The Company evaluates uncertain tax positions through consideration of accounting and reporting guidance on criteria, measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition that is intended to provide better financial statement comparability among different companies. The Company is required to recognize a tax benefit in its financial statements for an uncertain tax position only if management’s assessment is that its position is “more likely than not” (i.e., a greater than 50% likelihood) to be upheld on audit based only on the technical merits of the tax position. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense and penalties as income tax expense.
Redeemable Preferred Stock
The Company's Series A Preferred Stock is convertible outside of our control and is classified as mezzanine equity. The Series A Preferred Stock was initially recorded at fair value upon issuance, net of issuance costs and discounts. The holders of our Series A Preferred Stock are affiliates of Conversant Capital LLC, (together, the “Conversant Preferred Investors”), and are entitled to vote with the holders of common stock on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Company. As such, the Conversant Preferred Investors, in combination with the common stock owned by them and their affiliates as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, have voting rights in excess of 50
13
that the Series A Preferred Stock could be redeemed for cash by the Conversant Preferred Investors, and as such, the Series A Preferred Stock is required to be remeasured and adjusted to its maximum redemption value at the end of each reporting period. However, to the extent that the maximum redemption value of the Series A Preferred Stock does not exceed the fair value of the shares at the date of issuance, the shares are not adjusted below the fair value at the date of issuance. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Series A Preferred Stock is carried at the maximum redemption value. The Series A Preferred Stock does not have a maturity date and, therefore, is considered perpetual.
Derivative Instruments
Net Income Per Common Share
The Company uses the two-class method to compute net income per common share because the Company has issued securities (Series A Preferred Stock) that entitle the holder to participate in dividends and earnings of the Company. Under this method, net income is reduced by the amount of any dividends earned during the period. The remaining earnings (undistributed earnings) are allocated based on the weighted-average shares outstanding of common stock and participating securities, including Series A Preferred Stock (on an if-converted basis) to the extent that each participating security may share in earnings as if all of the earnings for the period had been distributed. The total earnings allocated to common stock is then divided by the number of outstanding shares to which the earnings are allocated to determine the earnings per share. The two-class method is not applicable during periods with a net loss, as the holders of the participating securities, including Series A Preferred Stock, have no obligation to fund losses.
Segment Reporting
The Company evaluates the performance of its senior living communities and allocates resources based on current operations and market assessments on a property-by-property basis. The Company does not have a concentration of operations geographically or by product or service as its management functions are integrated at the property level. The Company has determined that its operating units meet the criteria in ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, to be aggregated into one reporting segment. As such, the Company operates in one segment.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Improvements to Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Topic 220). The ASU requires the disaggregated disclosure of specific expense categories, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, within relevant income statement captions. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU can either be applied prospectively to consolidated financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. Early adoption is also permitted. This ASU will likely result in the required additional disclosures where applicable being included in our consolidated financial statements once adopted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU.
14
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments require disclosure of specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold and further disaggregation of income taxes paid for individually significant jurisdictions. The guidance was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2025, with the new disclosure requirements effective in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. The impact of the guidance is limited to financial statement disclosures.
3. Investments and Acquisitions
Investment in Consolidated VIE
In July 2024, the Company entered into the Palatine JVs with affiliates of Palatine Capital Partners, which acquired four senior living communities located in Texas (3) and Georgia (1). The Company is a 51 % owner in the joint ventures. The noncontrolling interest of the Palatine JVs is reported on the noncontrolling interest line items in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
Investment in Stone Unconsolidated Entity
In May 2024, the Stone JV purchased four communities in the Midwest. KZ Stone Investor LLC is the controlling managing member of the Stone JV and owned 67.29 % of the entity as of March 31, 2025. Sonida owned a 32.71 % noncontrolling interest in the Stone JV as of March 31, 2025. Sonida operates the four communities for a management fee based on the gross revenues of the applicable communities, as well as an incentive management fee based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, rent, and management fees, and other customary terms and conditions.
The Company has evaluated its investment in the Stone JV under ASC 810 and determined that it does not have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The Company's interests in the VIE are, therefore, accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The carrying amount of the Company's investment in the unconsolidated venture and maximum exposure to loss as a result of the Company's ownership interest in the Stone JV was $10.2 million as of March 31, 2025, which is included in investment in unconsolidated entity on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company received a return of its investment of $0.4 million in its unconsolidated entity.
The Company evaluates the realization of its investment in unconsolidated entities accounted for using the equity method if circumstances indicate the Company's investment is other than temporarily impaired. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, there were no impairments.

As of March 31, 2025, our fixed rate mortgage notes bore interest rates ranging from 3.0 % to 6.3 %. Our variable rate mortgage notes and revolving credit facility are based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus an applicable margin. As of March 31, 2025, the one-month SOFR was 4.4 % and the applicable margins ranged from 2.00 % to 3.50 %.
As of March 31, 2025, we had property and equipment with a net carrying value of $572.9 million that was secured by outstanding notes payable. In addition, as of March 31, 2025, we had property and equipment with a net carrying value of $143.4 million secured by the Credit Facility (as defined below).
2024 Fannie Mae Loan Modifications
In December 2024, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an Omnibus Amendment to Multifamily Loan and Security Agreements (the “Omnibus Amendment”) with Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”). The Omnibus Amendment amends the terms of each of the loan agreements (each, a “2024 Loan Agreement” and collectively, the “2024 Loan Agreements”) relating to 18 of the Company’s 37 senior living communities encumbered by mortgage agreements with Fannie Mae to, among other things, extend the maturity dates of each 2024 Loan Agreements from December 1, 2026 to January 1, 2029 in exchange for $10.0 million of scheduled principal paydowns on the 2024 Loan Agreements, which included a $2.0 million paydown made at closing and a series of $2.0 million, $3.0 million and $3.0 million due in November 2025, 2026 and 2027, respectively.
Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility
During 2024, the Company entered into a credit agreement with BMO Bank, N.A. and Royal Bank of Canada for a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility has a borrowing capacity of up to $150.0 million, a term of three years , a leverage-based pricing matrix between SOFR plus 2.10 % margin and SOFR plus 2.60 % margin and is fully recourse to Sonida Senior Living, Inc. and its applicable subsidiaries. The borrowing base by which borrowing availability under the Credit Facility is determined is generally based upon the value of the senior living communities that secure the Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2025, $60.0 million of borrowings were outstanding under the Credit Facility at a weighted average interest rate of 6.9 %, which was secured by 13 of the Company’s senior living communities. As of March 31, 2025, we had an additional borrowing capacity of up to $43.2 million under our Credit Facility.
Texas Loan Modification
In August 2024, the Company entered into loan modification agreements (“Texas Loan Modification”) with one of its lenders on two owned communities in Texas. The original loan terms included maturities of April 2025 and October 2031, as well as cross-default provisions with each other. The Texas Loan Modification included revised loan maturities of December 2025 on both communities, with the Company’s option to make a discounted payoff (“Texas DPO”) of the outstanding loan principal on or prior to November 1, 2024. As part of the consideration, the Company was required to pay a total restructuring fee of $250,000 . On November 1, 2024, the Company paid $18.3 million for the Texas DPO, which was financed with funds received from our Credit Facility. The Texas DPO represents a discount of 36 % on the total principal outstanding for which the Company recognized a gain on debt extinguishment, net of $10.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
2024 Loan Repurchase Agreement and Ally Term Loan Expansion
We entered into an agreement with one of our previous lenders whereby the Company agreed to purchase the outstanding indebtedness it owed to such lender for a purchase price of $40.2 million (plus the reimbursement of certain amounts advanced to the Company by such lender). On February 2, 2024, the Company completed the purchase of the total outstanding principal balance of $74.4 million from the lender that was secured by seven of the Company’s senior living communities (such
18
transaction, the “2024 Loan Purchase”). The 2024 Loan Purchase was funded by expanding the Company’s existing loan facility with Ally Bank (“Ally”) by $24.8 million (“Ally Third Amendment”) and the remainder was funded by proceeds from the issuance of common stock. The 2024 Loan Purchase and Ally financing closed in February 2024, reduced notes payable by $49.6 million, and resulted in a gain on debt extinguishment, net totaling $38.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The Company incurred deferred loan costs of $0.5 million as part of the Ally financing that are amortized over the loan term. As part of the Ally Third Amendment, the Company expanded its current interest rate cap to include the additional borrowing at a cost of $0.6 million and increased the monthly interest rate cap reserve (“IRC Reserve”) held by Ally to match the notional amount required under the increased obligation. The expanded Ally debt facility is secured by six of the Company’s senior living communities involved in the transaction.
2024 Ally Loan Amendment
On May 22, 2024, the Company executed an amendment (“Ally Fourth Amendment”) to the Ally term loan agreement. Ally Bank successfully syndicated a portion of its total term loan commitment to Cross River Bank. Following the syndication, Ally Bank and Cross River Bank owned 67.5 % and 32.5 %, respectively, of the outstanding principal balance. As each lender loans a specific amount to the debtor and has the right to repayment from the debtor this transaction is considered a loan syndication and the guidance in ASC 470-50 was applied to the modified loans on a creditor-by-creditor basis. As Ally Bank was the sole lender prior to the syndication, there is no change in the allocation of deferred loan costs, and they will continue to be amortized over the loan term. As part of the syndication, the IRC reserve spread moved from 2.3 % to 3.0 %, capping the total interest at 6.0 % on the Ally term loan. The Ally Fourth Amendment allows the Company the option to extend the Ally debt maturity by 12 months from March 2026 to March 2027.
Notes Payable - Consolidated VIE
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $21.7 million of mortgage debt outstanding related to the Palatine JVs. The mortgages have a weighted average interest rate of 7.1 % and terms ranging from 2025 through 2027. The Company has guaranteed $3.1 million of the Palatine JV mortgages. In addition, one of the affiliates in the Palatine JVs entered into a SOFR-based IRC to reduce exposure to the variable interest rate fluctuations associated with one of the mortgages at a cost of $0.1 million.
Notes Payable - Insurance
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had finance agreements for certain insurance policies totaling $0.9 million, with a fixed interest rate of 6.85 %, and principal being repaid over ten-month terms.
Deferred Loan Costs
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had gross deferred loan costs of $11.3 million and $11.4 million, respectively, related to notes payable. Accumulated amortization was $8.0 million and $7.6 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Financial Covenants
Certain of the Company's debt agreements contain restrictions and financial covenants, which require the Company to maintain prescribed minimum liquidity, net worth, and stockholders' equity levels and debt service ratios, and require the Company not to exceed prescribed leverage ratios, in each case on a consolidated, portfolio-wide, multi-community, single-community, and/or entity basis. In addition, the Company's debt agreements generally contain non-financial covenants, such as those requiring the Company to comply with Medicaid provider requirements and maintain insurance coverage.
The Company's failure to comply with applicable covenants could constitute an event of default under the applicable debt agreements. Many of the Company's debt agreements contain cross-default provisions so that a default under one of these instruments could cause a default under other debt agreements (including with other lenders). Furthermore, the Company's mortgage debt is secured by its communities and, in certain cases, a guaranty by the Company and/or one or more of its subsidiaries.

8. Securities Financing
Series A Preferred Stock
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had 41,250 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding. The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible outside of the Company's control and, in accordance with GAAP, is classified as mezzanine equity, outside the stockholders’ equity (deficit) section, on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Series A Preferred Stock has an 11 % annual dividend calculated on the original investment of $41.3 million accrued quarterly in arrears and compounded. Dividends are cumulative, and any declaration of dividends is at the discretion of the Company’s Board. If the Board does not declare a dividend in respect of any dividend payment date, the amount of such accrued and unpaid dividend is added to the liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock and compounds quarterly thereafter. On March 31, 2025, the Board declared and paid $1.4 million in dividends on its Series A Preferred Stock. On March 31, 2024, the Board did not declare dividends with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, and accordingly, $1.3 million was added to the liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock, effectively increasing the carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock. As of March 31, 2025, a total of $10.0 million had been added to the liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock.

10. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities include warrants, Series A Preferred Stock, shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units, and former employee stock options. Diluted EPS reflects the assumed exercise or
20
conversion of all dilutive securities. The Series A Preferred Stock is considered participating securities for the purposes of the Company's EPS calculation.

14. Fair Value Measurements
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The Company uses interest rate cap arrangements with financial institutions to manage exposure to interest rate changes for loans with variable interest rates. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had interest rate cap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $185.1 1.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively, which was determined using significant observable inputs (Level 2), including quantitative models that utilize multiple market inputs to value the position. The majority of market inputs are actively quoted and can be validated through external sources, including brokers, market transactions, and third-party pricing services. See “Note 15– Derivatives and Hedging.”
Financial Instruments Not Reported at Fair Value
For those financial instruments not carried at fair value, the carrying amount and estimated fair values of our financial assets and liabilities were as follows as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in thousands):
| March 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | ||||||||||||||||||||||

We believe the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.
The fair value of debt, excluding deferred loan costs, is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements, which represent Level 2 inputs as defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement.

15. Derivatives and Hedging
The Company uses derivatives as part of its overall strategy to manage our exposure to market risks associated with the fluctuations in variable interest rates associated with our debt. We are also required to enter into interest rate derivative instruments in compliance with certain debt agreements. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
During April 2024, the Company entered into an interest rate cap transaction for an aggregate notional amount of $49.2 million for $1.1 million to reduce exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with a portion of our variable mortgage notes payable to Fannie Mae. The interest rate cap has 24-month term and effectively caps SOFR at 4.00 %. The Company is funding an IRC reserve for a replacement IRC which is held by the lender. The IRC is not designated as a cash flow hedge under ASC 815-20, Derivatives – Hedging, and therefore, all changes in the fair value of the instrument are included as a component of interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
In connection with a loan related to the Company’s acquisition of a community located in Macedonia, Ohio in May 2024, the Company entered into a SOFR-based interest rate cap to reduce exposure to the variable interest rate fluctuations associated with the new mortgage. The total cost of the IRC was $0.2 million and has an aggregate notional amount of $9.4 million. The IRC has a 24-month term and caps SOFR at 6.00 %.
The interest rate cap agreement has a 12-month term and effectively caps the interest rate at 2.25 % with respect to the portion of our floating rate indebtedness. In February 2024, as part of the Ally Term Loan expansion, the Company entered into a SOFR-based interest rate cap transaction for an aggregate notional amount of $24.8 million at a cost of $0.6 million. See “Note 7–Debt.”

16. Segment Information
Each of our communities are identified as individual operating segments and we combine them into a single reportable segment for reporting purposes under ASC 280. We measure the segment based on resident revenue less community operating expense, (adjusted for various non-recurring non-operating community expenses), which we define as community net operating income (“NOI”), as well as some key performance indicators such as weighted average occupancy and a measurement of average rent per available unit.
Our Chief Executive Officer is our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who organizes our company, manages resource allocations and measures performance among our one

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help provide an understanding of our business and results of operations. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This report, including the following MD&A, contains forward-looking statements regarding future events or trends that should be read in conjunction with the risks, uncertainties and other factors described under “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” above in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on March 17, 2025, as well as “Item. 1A. Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Actual results may differ materially from those projected in such statements as a result of such risks, uncertainties and other factors. Unless otherwise specified or where the context otherwise requires, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “our,” “we,” “us,” “Sonida”, the “Company” and “our business” refer to Sonida Senior Living, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries.
Overview
The following discussion and analysis addresses (i) the Company’s results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, and (ii) liquidity and capital resources of the Company.
The Company is a leading owner, operator and investor in independent living, assisted living and memory care communities and services for senior adults in the United States in terms of resident capacity. The Company’s operating strategy is to provide value to its senior living residents by providing quality senior living services at reasonable prices, while achieving and sustaining a strong, competitive position within its geographically concentrated regions, as well as continuing to enhance the performance of its operations. The Company primarily provides senior living services to the 75+ population, including independent living, assisted living, and memory care services at reasonable prices. Many of the Company’s communities offer a continuum of care to meet each of their resident’s needs as they change over time. This continuum of care, which integrates independent living, assisted living, and memory care that may be bridged by home care through independent home care agencies, sustains our residents’ autonomy and independence based on their physical and mental abilities.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company owned, managed, or invested in 94 senior housing communities in 20 states with an aggregate capacity of approximately 10,000 residents, including 81 owned senior housing communities (including four through joint venture investments in consolidated entities, four owned through a joint venture investment in an unconsolidated entity, and one unoccupied) and 13 communities that the Company manages on behalf of a third party.
Significant Financial and Operational Highlights
Operations
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company generated resident revenue of $79.3 million compared to resident revenue of $60.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024, representing an increase of 30.6%. The increase in revenue was primarily due to increased occupancy, increased average rent rates, and additional communities acquired in 2024.
Weighted average occupancy for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 for the communities owned by the Company, excluding 2024 acquisitions and repositioning projects, was 86.8% and 85.8%, respectively, reflecting continued occupancy growth. The average monthly rental rate for these owned communities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased 5.5% when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Management Services
The Company has property management agreements with third parties and its joint ventures pursuant to which the Company manages certain communities on their behalf for a management fee based on gross revenues of the applicable communities, as well as, in some cases, an incentive management fee and other customary terms and conditions. The Company managed 13 and ten communities on behalf of a third party for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company also managed four communities on behalf of an unconsolidated joint venture and four communities in consolidated joint ventures for the three months ended March 31, 2025. No such joint ventures in the prior period.
26
Investment in Consolidated VIE
In July 2024, the Company entered into two joint ventures (collectively, the “Palatine JVs”) with affiliates of Palatine Capital Partners, which acquired four senior living communities located in Texas (3) and Georgia (1). The Company is a 51% owner in the joint ventures. The noncontrolling interest of the Palatine JVs is reported on the noncontrolling interest line items in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
Investment in Stone Unconsolidated Entities
In May 2024, Stone JV LLC (“Stone JV”) purchased four communities in the Midwest. KZ Stone Investor LLC is the controlling managing member of the Stone JV and owned 67.29% of the entity as of March 31, 2025. Sonida owned a 32.71% noncontrolling interest in the Stone JV as of March 31, 2025. Sonida operates the four communities for a management fee based on the gross revenues of the applicable communities, as well as an incentive management fee based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, rent, and management fees, and other customary terms and conditions.
The Company has evaluated its investment in the Stone JV under ASC 810 and determined that it does not have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The Company's interests in the VIE are, therefore, accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The carrying amount of the Company's investment in the unconsolidated venture and maximum exposure to loss as a result of the Company's ownership interest in the Stone JV was $10.2 million as of March 31, 2025, which is included in investment in unconsolidated entity on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company received a return of investment of $0.4 million in its unconsolidated entity.
The Company evaluates the realization of its investment in unconsolidated entities accounted for using the equity method if circumstances indicate the Company's investment is other than temporarily impaired. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, there were no impairments.
2024 Fannie Mae Loan Modifications
In December 2024, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an Omnibus Amendment to Multifamily Loan and Security Agreements (the “Omnibus Amendment”) with Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”). The Omnibus Amendment amends the terms of each of the loan agreements (each, a “2024 Loan Agreement” and collectively, the “2024 Loan Agreements”) relating to 18 of the Company’s 37 senior living communities encumbered by mortgage agreements with Fannie Mae to, among other things, extend the maturity dates of each 2024 Loan Agreements from December 1, 2026 to January 1, 2029 in exchange for $10.0 million of scheduled principal paydowns on the 2024 Loan Agreements, which included a $2.0 million paydown made at closing and a series of $2.0 million, $3.0 million and $3.0 million due in November 2025, 2026 and 2027, respectively.
Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility
During 2024, the Company entered into a credit agreement with BMO Bank, N.A. and Royal Bank of Canada for a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility has a borrowing capacity of up to $150.0 million, a term of three years, a leverage-based pricing matrix between SOFR plus 2.10% margin and SOFR plus 2.60% margin and is fully recourse to Sonida Senior Living, Inc. and its applicable subsidiaries. The borrowing base by which borrowing availability under the Credit Facility is determined is generally based upon the value of the senior living communities that secure the Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2025, $60.0 million of borrowings were outstanding under the Credit Facility at a weighted average interest rate of 6.9%, which was secured by 13 of the Company’s senior living communities. As of March 31, 2025, we had an additional borrowing capacity of up to $43.2 million under our Credit Facility. See “Note 17–Subsequent Events” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
2024 Loan Repurchase Agreement and Ally Term Loan Expansion
We entered into an agreement with one of our previous lenders whereby the Company agreed to purchase the outstanding indebtedness it owed to such lender for a purchase price of $40.2 million (plus the reimbursement of certain amounts advanced to the Company by such lender). On February 2, 2024, the Company completed the purchase of the total outstanding principal balance of $74.4 million from the lender that was secured by seven of the Company’s senior living communities (such transaction, the “2024 Loan Purchase”). The 2024 Loan Purchase was funded by expanding the Company’s existing loan facility with Ally Bank (“Ally”) by $24.8 million (“Ally Third Amendment”) and the remainder was funded by proceeds from the issuance of common stock. The 2024 Loan Purchase and Ally financing closed in February 2024, reduced notes payable by $49.6 million, and resulted in a gain on debt extinguishment, net totaling $38.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The Company incurred deferred loan costs of $0.5 million as part of the Ally financing that are amortized over the loan term. As part of the Ally Third Amendment, the Company expanded its current interest rate cap to include the additional
27
borrowing at a cost of $0.6 million and increased the monthly interest rate cap reserve (“IRC Reserve”) held by Ally to match the notional amount required under the increased obligation. The expanded Ally debt facility is secured by six of the Company’s senior living communities involved in the transaction.
2024 Ally Loan Amendment
On May 22, 2024, the Company executed an amendment (“Ally Fourth Amendment”) to the Ally term loan agreement. Ally Bank successfully syndicated a portion of its total term loan commitment to Cross River Bank. Following the syndication, Ally Bank and Cross River Bank owned 67.5% and 32.5%, respectively, of the outstanding principal balance. As each lender loans a specific amount to the debtor and has the right to repayment from the debtor this transaction is considered a loan syndication and the guidance in ASC 470-50 was applied to the modified loans on a creditor-by-creditor basis. As Ally Bank was the sole lender prior to the syndication, there is no change in the allocation of deferred loan costs, and they will continue to be amortized over the loan term. As part of the syndication, the IRC reserve spread moved from 2.3% to 3.0%, capping the total interest at 6.0% on the Ally term loan. The Ally Fourth Amendment allows the Company the option to extend the Ally debt maturity by 12 months from March 2026 to March 2027. The Company intends and has the ability to exercise this option.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements and related notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. For a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates, please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies since December 31, 2024.
Recent Accounting Guidance Adopted

Results of Operations
Three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to three months ended March 31, 2024
Revenues
Resident revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $79.3 million as compared to $60.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, representing an increase of $18.6 million, or 30.6%. The increase in revenue was primarily due to increased occupancy, increased average rent rates, and 16 additional operating communities acquired during 2024 (including one unoccupied community).
Management fee revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased by $0.5 million as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily as a result of managing three more third-party and four unconsolidated joint venture communities as compared to prior period.
Managed community reimbursement revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $11.6 million as compared to $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, representing an increase of $5.5 million, or 90.2%. The increase was primarily a result of managing more communities.
Expenses
Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $60.4 million as compared to $46.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, representing an increase of $14.1 million, or 30.5%. The increase was attributable to $11.5 million in operating expenses related to the 16 additional communities acquired during 2024 (including one unoccupied community acquired on December 31, 2024), and an increase of $2.6 million in operating expenses related to the remaining owned communities, driven by $1.4 million increases in labor and $1.2 million increases in other operating expenses.
28
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $8.5 million as compared to $6.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, representing an increase of $1.7 million. The increase was primarily a result of an increase in labor and employee related expenses of $1.5 million to support the Company’s 2024 acquisitions and growth initiatives, and a $0.4 million increase in stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by a net decrease in other expenses of $0.2 million.
Transaction, transition and restructuring costs were $0.6 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The costs include legal, audit, banking and other costs to support the Company’s recent debt, restructuring, as well as investments by the Company.
Managed community reimbursement expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $11.6 million as compared to $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, representing an increase of $5.5 million or 90.2%. The increase was primarily a result of managing more communities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the prior period.
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $9.4 million as compared to $8.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, representing an increase of $0.8 million primarily due to the incremental borrowings associated with the Company's 2024 community acquisitions, partially offset by a decrease in the Company’s SOFR-based variable rate debt.
Gain on extinguishment of debt, net for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $38.1 million related to the derecognition of notes payable and liabilities as a result of the 2024 Loan Purchase.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
In addition to $14.0 million of unrestricted cash as of March 31, 2025, our future liquidity will depend in part upon our operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions, and financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. Principal sources of liquidity are expected to be cash flows from operations, proceeds from our secured Credit Facility, proceeds from equity offerings, including sales of common stock under our ATM sales agreement, proceeds from debt, proceeds from debt refinancings or loan modifications, and proceeds from the sale of owned assets. On April 1, 2024, the Company entered into the At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “ATM Sales Agreement”), whereby the Company may sell, at its option, shares of its common stock up to an aggregate offering price of $75,000,000. During August 2024, the Company entered into its Credit Facility in which borrowing availability is determined based upon the value of the senior living communities securing the Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had outstanding borrowings under its Credit Facility of $60.0 million and availability of $43.2 million. These transactions are expected to provide additional financial flexibility for the Company and increase our liquidity position. See “Note 7–Debt” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
As of March 31, 2025, the majority of our outstanding variable-rate debt obligations were covered by our interest rate caps to better manage our exposure to market risks associated with the fluctuations in variable interest rates associated with our debt.
The Company, from time to time, considers and evaluates financial and capital raising transactions related to its portfolio, including debt financings and refinancings, purchases and sales of assets, equity offerings and other transactions. There can be no assurance that the Company will continue to generate cash flows at or above current levels, or that the Company will be able to obtain the capital necessary to meet the Company’s short- and long-term capital requirements.
Recent changes in the current economic environment, and other future changes, could result in decreases in the fair value of assets, slowing of transactions, and the tightening of liquidity and credit markets. These impacts could make securing debt or refinancings for the Company or buyers of the Company’s properties more difficult or on terms not acceptable to the Company. The Company’s actual liquidity and capital funding requirements depend on numerous factors, including its operating results, its capital expenditures for community investment, and general economic conditions, as well as other factors described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 17, 2025.
In summary, the Company’s cash flows were as follows (in thousands):

Operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $3.8 million as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The change of $7.9 million is primarily due to the change in accounts receivable and the improvement in net income inclusive of the non-cash adjustments to earnings during the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the prior year period.
Investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $7.9 million primarily due to $8.3 million in ongoing capital improvements combined with select refurbishment projects, as well as refurbishment projects associated with the 2024 acquired communities, partially offset by a return of investment of $0.4 million in our unconsolidated entity. Net cash used in investing activities of $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily resulted from ongoing capital improvements and refurbishments at the Company’s senior housing communities of $5.8 million, partially offset by $0.6 million from the proceeds from the sale of an unencumbered land parcel in January 2024.
Financing activities
Net cash used by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $2.5 million primarily due to dividends paid of $1.4 million and repayments of notes payable of $0.9 million. The net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $29.1 million primarily due to net proceeds received from the issuance of common stock of $47.6 million and proceeds of $24.8 million from the Ally financing, partially offset by repayments of notes payable of $42.0 million.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s 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 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based upon the controls evaluation, procedures evaluation and the material weakness described below and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 17, 2025, the Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The Company’s system user access controls for certain financial systems, including provisioning and user access review, were not operating effectively. Moreover, the lack of effective user access controls caused insufficient restriction of user and privileged access to our payroll system and data, resulting in a lack of segregation of duties for certain user roles. These control deficiencies could result in a material misstatement of our accounts or disclosures that would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis, and accordingly, we determined that these control deficiencies in aggregate constitute a material weakness.
Other than the changes outlined below, there have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
30
Remediation Plan
As disclosed in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was filed with the SEC on March 17, 2025, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which has not been remediated as of March 31, 2025. We have developed the following plan for remediation of the material weakness. Control weaknesses are not considered remediated until enhanced internal controls have been operational for a period of time, are tested and management concludes that these controls are operating effectively. We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of our remediation measures in connection with our future assessments of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. We will make any changes to the design of our plan and take such other actions that we deem appropriate given the circumstances. We expect to complete the remediation process in 2025.
•Established a project team to review, evaluate and remediate the material weakness.
•Restrict user and privileged access to our payroll system to ensure appropriate segregation of duties.
•Further implement single sign-on user access for key financial systems.
•Enhance key financial system user access reviews to ensure the completeness and accuracy of users.
•Further review our system user access controls and implement additional review controls as deemed necessary.

Part II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company has claims incurred in the normal course of its business. Most of these claims are believed by management to be covered by insurance, subject to normal reservations of rights by the insurance companies and possibly subject to certain exclusions in the applicable insurance policies. Whether or not covered by insurance, these claims, in the opinion of management, based on advice of legal counsel, should not have a material effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company if determined adversely to the Company.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
