How the new team additions will impact the company's G&A run rate going forward.

Mark Decker indicated that G&A will be higher in the short term due to the new hires, but expressed an expectation that it will be in line or better as the business grows and matures, driven by the repositioning of the investment portfolio. “I mean for the time, it will be higher. But I mean I would say, Juan, we're really viewing this as a growth-oriented team and a growth-oriented business with a source of capital that's right in front of us in the form of the outpatient medical assets. And so our expectation is the business will grow and mature and our G&A will be in line or better.”

Inquiring if the leadership team build-out is complete or if there are still positions to fill.

Mark Decker confirmed that the team is in a 'great spot,' implying that the leadership build-out is complete for now. “We're in -- I think we're in a great spot.”

Asking if opportunistic OM investments will remain part of the company's playbook despite the pivot to senior housing.

Mark Decker stated that the playbook is to generate the best returns on capital and work with partners, but emphasized that the company is 'very focused proportionately on senior housing,' without explicitly ruling out opportunistic OM investments. “I mean I think the playbook is really to try to generate the best returns on capital possible and work with partners who value what we're up to. But I mean, we're very focused proportionately on senior housing.”

will increase... in the short term

Mitigation:Expectation that G&A will be in line or better as the business grows and matures through investment portfolio repositioning.

Market undervaluation of outpatient medical portfolio

market is not fully recognizing the value embedded within our legacy outpatient medical portfolio

Mitigation:Leaning into this pricing dislocation by selling assets and reallocating capital into higher-returning assets.

Time required for portfolio repositioning more time than immediate

it's reasonable to assume it will take more time than immediate

Mitigation:Strategic approach to asset sales, such as retaining equity in the IRF JV to optimize value over a mid-duration lease term (4.5 years).

What to watch in Q3 FY26

G&A run rate

Next quarter / going forward

Current $3.8 million (Q2 FY26 cash G&A)

Target In line or better with business growth

Why it matters

G&A is expected to increase in the short term due to new hires; investors will watch for management's ability to keep it in line as the business grows.

Looking ahead, while we expect that the changes in senior management will increase our G&A costs in the short term, we believe that as we reposition the investment portfolio, our costs will be in line with the size of our portfolio.

Detailed narrative

Strategic Repositioning and Capital Allocation

Chiron is actively reallocating resources towards opportunities expected to create a more durable and relevant real estate platform with stronger long-term returns, primarily focusing on senior housing. This involves a strategic pivot from outpatient medical assets, with proceeds from dispositions being reinvested into higher-return senior housing acquisitions. The company aims to compound stronger long-term returns through this focused capital allocation strategy.

Asset Sales and Capital Recycling

The company completed the sale of 7 inpatient rehab facilities to a newly formed joint venture in June, generating $200 million in gross proceeds at a 7.3% exit cap rate, while retaining a small equity interest. Additionally, Chiron is under contract to sell its Beaumont, Texas Surgical Hospital for $49 million, representing an exit cap rate of 5.9%.

These sales are part of an ongoing effort to divest outpatient medical assets and redeploy capital into higher-returning opportunities.

Senior Housing Acquisitions and Investment Focus

Chiron closed on the $100 million May win investment, which included the acquisition of two senior communities, The Landing and The Riviera, totaling 292 luxury homes. The company also completed the previously announced acquisition of The Pinnacle, a marquee luxury community that welcomed its first residents in June.

The strategic focus for future acquisitions is on more stabilized senior housing assets, with a robust pipeline of opportunities identified.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity Position

The company's balance sheet is well-positioned, with no debt maturities until 2028 and a leverage ratio of just under 40%. Net debt to adjusted EBITDAre improved to 6.0x for the quarter, down from 6.6x in the first quarter. Chiron also has $259 million in unutilized borrowing capacity under its credit facility, providing ample liquidity for its strategic initiatives.

Enhanced Leadership Team

Chiron has significantly strengthened its leadership team with several key hires, including Tami Cumings as SVP of Seniors Housing, Aaron Roseth as Chief Operating Officer, Matthew Whitlock as Chief Investment Officer, and Bobby Zeiller as Chief Development Officer and Head of Seniors.

These additions bring over 100 years of combined experience in sourcing, developing, operating, and managing senior housing communities, enhancing the company's capabilities for its next phase of growth.

Outpatient Medical Portfolio Valuation and Strategy

Management believes the market is currently undervaluing its legacy outpatient medical portfolio, citing robust institutional demand for such assets at favorable cap rates. The company plans to leverage this pricing dislocation by continuing to sell these assets, either individually or through larger portfolio transactions, to reallocate capital into higher-returning senior housing investments and drive long-term shareholder value.

Reston Land Parcel Acquisition

Chiron acquired a land parcel in Reston, Virginia, representing approximately 1% of its total assets. This shovel-ready parcel is intended to be used as 'currency to build rapport with operators' for a potential full continuum community development. While a small investment, it aligns with the company's strategy to expand its senior housing footprint and partnerships.
