Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business Overview

Community Healthcare Trust Incorporated (the ‘‘Company’’, ‘‘we’’, ‘‘our’’) was organized in the State of Maryland on March 28, 2014. The Company is a fully-integrated healthcare real estate company that owns and acquires real estate properties that are leased to hospitals, doctors, healthcare systems or other healthcare service providers in non-urban markets. The Company conducts its business through an UPREIT structure in which its properties are owned by its operating partnership, either directly or through subsidiaries. The Company is the sole general partner, owning 100% of the operating partnership ("OP") units. In May 2015, the Company completed its initial public offering, issuing 7,187,500 shares of common stock for approximately $125.2 million in net proceeds and concurrent private placements to certain officers and directors of 123,683 shares of common stock for approximately $2.3 million in net proceeds. In June 2015, the Company entered into a $75.0 million syndicated senior revolving credit facility. Since its initial public offering, as of September 30, 2015, the Company investments of approximately $112.0 million in 33 real estate properties and mortgages, located in 16 states, totaling approximately 575,000 square feet.

Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

This interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this report and in the Company’s final prospectus (“Prospectus”) for the Company’s initial public offering, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 26, 2015 pursuant to Rule 424(b). Management believes that all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. This interim financial information does not necessarily represent or indicate what the operating results will be for the year ending December 31, 2015.

Principles of Consolidation

Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, joint ventures, partnerships and variable interest entities, or VIEs, where the Company controls the operating activities. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Management must make judgments regarding the Company's level of influence or control over an entity and whether or not the Company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. Consideration of various factors include, but is not limited to, the Company's ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity's governing body, the size and seniority of the Company's investment, the Company's ability and the rights of other investors to participate in policy making decisions, the Company's ability to replace the manager and/or liquidate the entity. Management's ability to correctly assess its influence or control over an entity when determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE affects the presentation of these entities in the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

If it is determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company's consolidated financial

statements would include the operating results of the VIE rather than the results of the variable interest in the VIE. The Company would depend on the VIE to provide timely financial information and would rely on the interest control of the VIE to provide accurate financial information. Untimely or inaccurate financial information provided to the Company or deficiencies in the VIEs internal controls over financial reporting could impact the Company's consolidated financial statements and its internal control over financial reporting.

In September 2015, the Company acquired an $11.0 million mortgage note receivable as disclosed in Note 4. The Company identified the borrower as a VIE, but management determined that the Company was not the primary beneficiary.

Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012

The JOBS Act permits the Company, as an ‘‘emerging growth company,’’ to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. Management has elected to ‘‘opt out’’ of this provision and, as a result, will be required to comply with new or revised accounting standards as required when they are adopted. The decision to opt out of the extended transition period under the JOBS Act is irrevocable.

Use of Estimates in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may materially differ from those estimates.

Segment Reporting

The Company acquires and owns healthcare-related real estate properties that are leased to hospitals, doctors, healthcare systems or other healthcare service providers in non-urban markets. The Company is managed as one reporting unit, rather than multiple reporting units, for internal reporting purposes and for internal decision-making. Therefore, the Company discloses its operating results in a single segment.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased.

Real Estate Properties

Real estate properties are recorded at cost or at fair value if acquired in a transaction that is a business combination under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations. Cost or fair value at the time of acquisition is allocated between land, buildings, tenant improvements, lease and other intangibles, and personal property, as applicable.

Depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and liabilities in place as of September 30, 2015, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset. The estimated useful lives at September 30, 2015 are as follows:



Buildings and improvements	20 - 30 years
Lease intangibles	14 months to 7.8 years

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

Accounting for Acquisitions of Real Estate Properties

Real estate properties are recorded at cost or, if acquired through business combination, at fair value. Costs at the time of acquisition, including closing costs for asset purchases, are allocated among land, building, and personal property. In a business combination, we estimate the fair value of acquired tangible assets (consisting of land, building, and improvements) and identified intangible assets and liabilities (consisting of above- and below-market leases, in-place leases, and tenant relationships) based on the evaluation of information and estimates available at that date in accordance with the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations, and we allocate the purchase price based on these assessments. We make estimates of the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets and acquired liabilities using information obtained from multiple sources as a result of pre-acquisition due diligence, tax records, and other sources. Based on these estimates, we recognize the acquired assets and liabilities at their estimated fair values. Initial valuations are subject to change until the information is finalized, no later than 12 months from the acquisition date. We expense transaction costs associated with business combinations in the period incurred. In accordance with ASC 805, the fair value of tangible property assets acquired considers the value of the property as if vacant determined by comparable sales and other relevant data. The determination of fair value involves the use of significant judgment and estimation. We value land based on various inputs, which may include real estate tax assessed values, internal analysis of recently acquired and existing comparable properties within our portfolio, or third party appraisals.

In recognizing identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, the value of above-or-below market leases is estimated based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between contractual amounts to be received pursuant to the leases and management’s estimate of market lease rates measured over a period equal to the estimated remaining term of the lease. In the case of a below-market lease, the Company would also evaluate any renewal options associated with that lease to determine if the intangible should include those periods. The capitalized above-market or below-market lease intangibles are amortized as a reduction or addition to rental income over the estimated remaining term of the respective leases.

In determining the value of in-place leases and tenant relationships, management considers current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases in arriving at an estimate of the carrying costs during the expected lease-up period from vacant to existing occupancy. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance, other property operating expenses, estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods, and costs to execute similar leases, including leasing commissions. The values assigned to in-place leases and tenant relationships are amortized over the estimated remaining term of the lease. If a lease terminates prior to its scheduled expiration, all unamortized costs related to that lease are written off.

Asset Impairments

The Company may need to assess the potential for impairment of identifiable, definite-lived, intangible assets and long-lived assets, including real estate properties, whenever events occur or a change in circumstances indicates that the carrying value might not be fully recoverable. Indicators of impairment may include significant under-performance of an asset relative to historical or expected operating results; significant changes in the Company’s use of assets or the strategy for its overall business; plans to sell an asset before its depreciable life has ended; the expiration of a significant portion of leases in a property; or significant negative economic trends or negative industry trends for the Company or its operators. In addition, the Company’s review for possible impairment may include those assets subject to purchase options and those impacted by casualties, such as tornadoes and hurricanes. If management determines that the carrying value of the Company’s assets may not be fully recoverable based on the existence of any of the factors above, or others, management would measure and record an impairment charge based on the estimated fair value of the property or the estimated fair value less costs to sell the property.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. In calculating fair value, a company must maximize the use of observable

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

market inputs, minimize the use of unobservable market inputs and disclose in the form of an outlined hierarchy the details of such fair value measurements.

A hierarchy of valuation techniques is defined to determine 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.

Executed purchase and sale agreements, that are binding agreements, are categorized as level one inputs. Brokerage estimates, letters of intent, or unexecuted purchase and sale agreements are considered to be level three as they are non-binding in nature.

Lease Accounting

We, as lessor, make a determination with respect to each of our leases whether they should be accounted for as operating leases or capital leases. The classification criteria is based on estimates regarding the fair value of the leased facilities, minimum lease payments, effective cost of funds, the economic useful life of the facilities, the existence of a bargain purchase option, and certain other terms in the lease agreements. We believe all of our leases should be accounted for as operating leases. Payments received under operating leases are accounted for in the consolidated statement of income as rental revenue for actual cash rent collected plus or minus a straight-line adjustment for estimated minimum lease escalators. Assets subject to operating leases are reported as real estate investments in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Substantially all of our leases contain fixed or formula-based rent escalators. To the extent that the escalator increases are tied to a fixed index or rate, lease payments are accounted for on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes rental revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned, in accordance with ASC 840, Leases. There are four criteria that must all be met before a Company may recognize revenue, including persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered (i.e., the tenant has taken possession of and controls the physical use of the leased asset), the price has been fixed or is determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. ASC 840 also requires that rental revenue, less lease inducements, be recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Recognizing rental revenue on a straight-line basis for leases may result in recognizing revenue in amounts more or less than amounts currently due from tenants. If management determines that the collectability of straight-line rents is not reasonably assured, the amount of future revenue recognized may be limited to amounts contractually owed and, where appropriate, establish an allowance for estimated losses. Income received but not yet earned is deferred until such time it is earned. Deferred revenue, included in other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, was approximately $277,000 and $0, respectively, at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Credit Losses

Accounts Receivable

Management monitors the aging and collectability of its accounts receivable balances on an ongoing basis. Whenever deterioration in the timeliness of payment from a tenant is noted, management investigates and determines the reason or reasons for the delay. Considering all information gathered, management’s judgment is exercised in determining whether a receivable is potentially uncollectible and, if so, how much or what percentage may be uncollectible. Among the factors management considers in determining collectability are: the type of contractual arrangement under which the receivable was recorded (e.g., triple net lease, gross lease, or other type of agreement); the tenant’s reason for slow payment; industry influences under which the tenant operates; evidence of willingness and ability of the tenant to pay the receivable; credit-worthiness of the tenant; collateral, security deposit, letters of credit or other monies held as security; tenant’s historical payment pattern; other contractual agreements between the tenant and the Company; relationship between the tenant and the Company; the state in which the tenant operates; and the existence of a guarantor and the willingness and ability of the guarantor to pay the receivable. Considering these factors and others, management concludes whether all or some of the aged receivable balance is likely uncollectible. Upon determining that some portion of the receivable is likely uncollectible, the Company will record a provision for bad debts for the amount it expects will be uncollectible. When efforts to collect a receivable are exhausted, the receivable amount is charged off against the allowance. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no provision for bad debts.

Mortgage Note Receivable

The Company had one mortgage note receivable outstanding as of September 30, 2015 with a principal balance of $11.0 million, maturing on September 30, 2026. The mortgage note is interest only with a 9.5% interest rate through September 30, 2016. Thereafter, monthly principal and interest payments will be due through the maturity date.

The Company evaluates collectibility of its mortgage notes and records allowances on the notes as necessary. A loan is impaired when it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan as scheduled, including both contractual interest and principal payments. This assessment also includes an evaluation of the loan collateral. If a mortgage loan becomes past due, the Company will review the specific circumstances and may discontinue the accrual of interest on the loan. The loan is not returned to accrual status until the debtor has demonstrated the ability to continue debt service in accordance with the contractual terms. Loans placed on non-accrual status will be accounted for on a cash basis, in which income is recognized only upon the receipt of cash, or on a cost-recovery basis, in which all cash receipts reduce the carrying value of the loan, based on the Company's expectation of future collectibility. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were no mortgage notes on non-accrual status and the Company had not recorded any allowances on its mortgage note receivable.

Stock-Based Compensation

We have adopted the 2014 Incentive Plan. The 2014 Incentive Plan is intended to attract and retain qualified persons upon whom, in large measure, our sustained progress, growth and profitability depend, to motivate the participants to achieve long-term company goals and to more closely align the participants’ interests with those of our other stockholders by providing them with a proprietary interest in our growth and performance. The two distinct programs under the 2014 Incentive Plan are the Alignment of Interest Program and the Officer Incentive Program. It is anticipated that our executive officers, officers, employees, consultants and non-employee directors will be eligible to participate in the 2014 Incentive Plan. Currently, only the Company’s officers and directors are participants in the 2014 Incentive Plan. The 2014 Incentive Plan currently reserves 7% of the Company’s outstanding common stock for issuance as awards. The 2014 Incentive Plan is administered by the Company’s compensation committee, which interprets the 2014 Incentive Plan and has broad discretion to select the eligible persons to whom awards will be granted, as well as the type, size and terms and conditions of each award, including the number of shares subject to awards and the expiration date of, and the vesting schedule or other restrictions (including, without limitation, restrictive covenants) applicable to, awards. The Company recognizes share-based

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

payments to its officers and directors in its Consolidates Statements of Operations on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period based on the fair value of the award on the measurement date.

Organization and Offering Costs

Some of the costs related to the Company’s organization, its initial public offering and due diligence related to the initial properties acquired by the Company were incurred by Athena Funding Partners (“AFP”), which is substantially owned and controlled by Timothy G. Wallace, the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President. The Company entered into a formation services agreement with AFP on April 1, 2014, pursuant to which the Company agreed to reimburse the actual costs incurred by AFP only upon the successful completion of the initial public offering. The costs related to the activities prior to the offering were undertaken by AFP on the Company’s behalf, including the Company’s organization, negotiating the property acquisitions, performing due diligence related to the initial properties, performing corporate work in contemplation of the offering and preparing the Prospectus. Costs incurred include expenses such as legal and accounting fees, certain costs related to performing property due diligence, certain property related costs, travel, overhead, office supplies and office rent. The Company reimbursed AFP approximately $170,000 and $255,000 during the second and third quarters of 2015, respectively. AFP will receive no further compensation for providing such services and funding such costs.

Organization costs incurred by the Company were expensed. Offering costs incurred were recorded in stockholders’ equity as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, but are tested at least annually for impairment. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their respective lives to their estimated residual values and are reviewed for impairment only when impairment indicators are present.

Identifiable intangible assets of the Company are generally comprised of in-place lease intangible assets and deferred financing costs. In-place lease intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the applicable lives of the assets. Deferred financing costs are amortized to interest expense over the term of the related credit facility or other debt instrument using the straight-line method, which approximates amortization under the effective interest method.

Contingent Liabilities

From time to time, the Company may be subject to loss contingencies arising from legal proceedings and similar matters. Additionally, while the Company maintains comprehensive liability and property insurance with respect to each of its properties, the Company may be exposed to unforeseen losses related to uninsured or under-insured damages.

Management will monitor any matter that may present a contingent liability, and, on a quarterly basis, will review any reserves and accruals relating to the liabilities, adjusting provisions as necessary in view of changes in available information. Liabilities for contingencies are first recorded when a loss is determined to be both probable and can be reasonably estimated. Changes in estimates regarding the exposure to a contingent loss will be reflected as adjustments to the related liability in the periods when they occur and will be disclosed in the notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

On occasion, the Company may also have acquisitions which include contingent consideration. Accounting for business combinations require the Company to estimate the fair value of any contingent purchase consideration at acquisition. Management will monitor these contingencies on a quarterly basis. Changes in estimates regarding contingent purchase consideration will be reflected as adjustments to the related liability in the periods when they occur and will be disclosed in the notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

Federal Income Taxes

No provision has been made for federal income taxes. The Company intends at all times to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under Sections 856 and 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Company must distribute at least 90% per annum of its REIT taxable income to its stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) and meet other requirements to continue to qualify as a real estate investment trust.

State Income Taxes

The Company must pay certain state income taxes which will generally be included in general and administrative expense on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss.

Sales and Use Taxes

The Company must pay sales and use taxes to certain state tax authorities based on rent collected from tenants in properties located in those states. The Company is generally reimbursed for those taxes by those tenants. The Company accounts for the payments to the taxing authority and subsequent reimbursement from the tenant on a net basis, included in tenant reimbursement revenue on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss.

Concentration of Credit Risks

Our credit risks primarily relate to cash and cash equivalents and our one mortgage note receivable. Cash and cash equivalents are primarily held in bank accounts and overnight investments. We maintain our bank deposit accounts with large financial institutions in amounts that often exceed federally-insured limits. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts. We invested in one mortgage note during the third quarter of 2015 and have a fixed price purchase option on the secured property through September 30, 2016. See Note 4 for more details.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per common share is calculated using weighted average shares outstanding less issued and outstanding non-vested shares of common stock. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated using weighted average shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of the non-vested shares of common stock using the treasury stock method and the average stock price during the period.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-16

In September 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-16, "Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments." This standard eliminates the requirement that an acquirer in a business combination account for measurement-period adjustments retrospectively. Instead, an acquirer will recognize measurement-period adjustments, including its effect on earnings and goodwill, in the period in which the amount of the adjustment is determined.

This standard is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2016 with early adoption permitted. In general, the Company does not believe the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on it results of operations or cash flows. However, in certain cases, this standard could require a Company to record material adjustments upon realization or clarification of certain matters related to previously recorded business combinations.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." This standard requires debt issuance costs to be reported in the balance sheet as a direct reduction from the face amount of the note in which it is directly related. The SEC staff has indicated that it will not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs related to lines-of-credit as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit arrangement.

This standard is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2016 with early adoption permitted, on a retrospective basis, wherein the balance sheet of each individual period presented should be adjusted to reflect the period-specific effects of applying the new guidance. Upon transition, the Company is required to comply with the applicable disclosures for a change in an accounting principle. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or cash flows.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, as amended by ASU No. 2015-14, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that supersedes most existing revenue recognition guidance, including sales of real estate. This standard's core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. However, leasing contracts, representing the major source of the Company's revenues, are not within the scope of the new standard and will continue to be accounted for under existing standards.

This new standard is effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company has not yet determined the effects on the consolidated financial statements and related notes resulting from the adoption of this new standard.

Note 2—Real Estate Investments

Note 3—Real Estate Leases

The Company’s properties are generally leased pursuant to non-cancelable, fixed-term operating leases with expiration dates through 2030. The Company’s leases generally require the lessee to pay minimum rent, with fixed rent renewal terms or increases based on a Consumer Price Index and additional rent, which may include taxes (including property tax), insurance, maintenance and other operating costs associated with the leased property.

Future minimum lease payments under the non-cancelable operating leases due the Company for the years ending December 31, as of September 30, 2015, are as follows (in thousands):



2015 (three months ending December 31)	$	2,612

During the third quarter of 2015, the Company acquired three real estate properties totaling approximately 71,000 square feet for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $13.1 million, including cash consideration of approximately $13.0 million. Upon acquisition, the properties were approximately 93.6% leased in the aggregate with lease expirations ranging from 2016 through 2024.

During the second quarter of 2015, the Company acquired 29 real estate properties totaling approximately 474,000 square feet for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $87.5 million, including cash consideration of approximately $87.0 million.

Mortgage Note Receivable

During the third quarter of 2015, the Company funded an $11.0 million mortgage secured by a 29,890 square foot long-term acute care facility in Louisiana which matures on September 30, 2026. The Company received loan and commitment fees from the transaction totaling $137,500 which have been deferred and will be recognized into income on a straight-line basis through the maturity of the mortgage note. The mortgage loan requires interest only payments to us through September 2016 and has a stated fixed interest rate of 9.5%. Thereafter, monthly principal and interest payments will be due through maturity. The Company has an option to purchase the property through September 30, 2016 for a fixed amount.

Note 5— Revolving Credit Facility

On June 3, 2015, the Company entered into a $75.0 million syndicated senior revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) that matures on June 3, 2018 with two options to extend the facility, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, for an additional year each for an extension fee of 0.25% of the aggregate commitments. The Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature that provides the Company with additional capacity, subject to the satisfaction of customary terms and conditions, including obtaining additional commitments from lenders, of up to $125.0 million, for a total facility size of up to $200.0 million. The Company’s material subsidiaries are guarantors of the obligations under the Credit Facility. The amount available for the Company to borrow from time to time under the Credit Facility is limited according to a borrowing base valuation of certain unencumbered properties owned by subsidiaries of our operating partnership that guarantee the facility.

Amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility bear annual interest at a floating rate that is based, at the Company’s option, on either: (i) LIBOR plus 2.50% to 3.00% or (ii) a base rate plus 1.50% to 2.00%, in each case, depending upon the Company’s leverage ratio. In addition, the Company is obligated to pay an annual fee equal to 0.25% of the amount of the unused portion of the Credit Facility if amounts borrowed are greater than 50% of the borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility and 0.35% of the unused portion of the Credit Facility if amounts borrowed are less than or equal to 50% of the borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility. At September 30, 2015, the Company had not borrowed under the Credit Facility.

The Company’s ability to borrow under the Credit Facility is subject to its ongoing compliance with a number of customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations with respect to liens, indebtedness, distributions, mergers, consolidations, investments, restricted payments and asset sales, as well as financial maintenance covenants. The Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under its Credit Facility at September 30, 2015.

Note 6—Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending common stock balances for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and for the period March 28, 2014 (inception) through December 31, 2014:



	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015	For the Period March 28, 2014 (inception) through December 31, 2014

Balance, end of period	7,596,940	200,000

Equity Offerings

In addition, on May 27, 2015, 123,683 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, were issued in concurrent private placements to certain directors and officers of the Company. The Company received approximately $2.3 million in net proceeds from the concurrent private placements. The offer and sale of these private placement shares were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon the exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as such transactions did not involve a public offering of securities.

On March 31, 2014, the Company issued 200,000 shares of common stock to its officers as founder's shares in connection with the formation of the Company.

Note 7—Loss Per Common Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per common share.



	Three Months Ended September 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,			For the Period March 28, 2014(inception) through September 30,

Diluted Loss per Common Share	$	(0.01	)	$	—	$	(0.42	)	$	—

The dilutive effect of 3,723 and 3,372 shares of restricted common stock, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, because the effect was anti-dilutive due to the net loss incurred in those periods.

Note 8—Incentive Plan

The Company has adopted the 2014 Incentive Plan under which awards may be made in the form of restricted stock or cash. On May 28, 2015, the Company granted 69,125 shares of restricted common stock to its officers, in lieu of salary, that will cliff vest in eight years. On May 28, 2015, the Company also granted its directors 5,264 shares of restricted common stock upon completion of the initial public offering and granted 11,368 shares of restricted common stock to its directors, in lieu of director fees, which will cliff vest in three years. Once shares have been issued, the recipient has the right to receive dividends and the right to vote the shares.

Note 9-Related Party Transactions

Concurrent Private Placements

Concurrently with the completion of the Company’s initial public offering, Timothy G. Wallace, our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, and certain of our officers and directors acquired common stock through concurrent private placements at a price per share equal to the initial public offering price.

The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law. Stockholders and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on such forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented in the Company’s filings and reports.

The purpose of this Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") is to provide an understanding of the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes.

Overview

References such as ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ ‘‘our,’’ and ‘‘the Company’’ mean Community Healthcare Trust Incorporated, a Maryland corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Community Healthcare OP, LP, a Delaware limited partnership of which we are the sole general partner.

We were organized in the State of Maryland on March 28, 2014. We are a self-administered, self-managed healthcare real estate investment trust, or REIT, that acquires and owns properties that are leased to hospitals, doctors, healthcare systems or other healthcare service providers in non-urban markets. The Company conducts its business through an UPREIT structure in which its properties are owned by its operating partnership, either directly or through subsidiaries. The Company is the sole general partner, owning 100% of the OP units.

Initial Public Offering and Concurrent Private Placements

On May 27, 2015, the Company completed its initial public offering of 7,187,500 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a public offering price of $19.00 per share, which includes 937,500 shares of common stock issued in connection with the exercise in full of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $125.2 million from the offering. In addition, on May 27, 2015, 123,683 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, were issued in concurrent private placements to certain directors and officers of the Company. The Company received approximately $2.3 million in net proceeds from the concurrent private placements.

Trends and Matters Impacting Operating Results

Management will monitor factors and trends that it believes are important to the Company and the REIT industry in order to gauge their potential impact on the operations of the Company. Certain of the factors and trends that management believes may impact the operations of the Company are discussed below.

Real estate acquisitions

Subsequent acquisitions

Contractual Obligations

The Company’s material contractual obligations at September 30, 2015 are included in the table below. At September 30, 2015, the Company had no long-term capital lease or purchase obligations.



(Dollars in thousands)	Total		Remainder of 2015		2016
Revolving credit facility (1)	$	421	$	154	$	267
Tenant improvement allowances (2)	—		—		—
	$	421	$	154	$	267

____________

(1)The amounts shown include the unused fee interest assuming the credit facility remains at $0 through its maturity.

(2)The Company assumed tenant improvement obligations totaling approximately $0.3 million relating to two tenants in its initial properties whose leases mature in 2018 and 2020. Since the timing of when, or if, the Company will be required to fund its obligations is not known at September 30, 2015, the Company has not included those amounts in its contractual obligation table above.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably like to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Inflation

We believe inflation will have a minimal impact on the operating performance of our properties. Many of our lease agreements contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. These provisions include clauses that enable us to receive payment of increased rent pursuant to escalation clauses which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. These escalation clauses often provide for fixed rent increases or indexed escalations (based upon CPI or other measures). However, some of these contractual rent increases may be less than the actual rate of inflation. Generally, our lease agreements require the tenant to pay property operating expenses, including maintenance costs, real estate taxes and insurance. This requirement reduces our exposure to increases in these costs and property operating expenses resulting from inflation.

Seasonality

We do not expect our business to be subject to material seasonal fluctuations.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1 to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements accompanying this report for information on new accounting standards not yet adopted.

Results of Operations

The Company had no results of operations prior to the completion of the Company’s initial public offering on May 27, 2015. Since the completion of the initial public offering, through September 30, 2015, the Company had investments in 33 properties, entered into a $75.0 million revolving credit facility, signed three-year employment agreements with each of its executive officers and signed one-year employment agreements with its other five officers and began incurring certain other expenses, including general and administrative expenses. During the initial term of each officer’s employment agreement, each officer has agreed to take 100% of their salary, bonus and long-term incentive, as applicable, in the form of restricted stock, which is subject to eight-year cliff vesting. As such, the Company will incur expenses related to the amortization of the restricted stock for those periods, but will not incur cash salary expense for those officers.

Revenues

Our revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 represented income generated from the properties acquired since the initial public offering. Revenues included contractual rents due under the leases with our tenants, estimated operating expense recoveries, as well as straight-line rent adjustments. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recognized straight-line rent of approximately $50,000 and $64,000, respectively, which is included in rental income on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Property operating expenses

Property operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 included expenses incurred related to the properties acquired since the initial public offering. Property operating expenses generally include real estate taxes and insurance, utilities, repairs and maintenance and other operating expenses of the properties.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 generally included legal, regulatory, accounting and other closing expenses related to the Company’s acquisitions, as well as certain compensation-related and occupancy costs related to its officers, employees and corporate office.

Interest expense

Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 included accrued fees due on the revolving credit facility and amortization of deferred financing costs related to the revolving credit facility.

Depreciation and amortization expense

Depreciation and amortization expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 included depreciation on buildings and improvements, as well as amortization of intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of its real estate properties.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Cash

On May 27, 2015, the Company completed its initial public offering of 7,187,500 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a public offering price of $19.00 per share, which includes 937,500 shares of common stock issued in connection with the exercise in full of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $125.2 million from the offering. In addition, 123,683 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, were issued in concurrent private placements to certain directors and officers of the Company. The Company received approximately $2.3 million in net proceeds from the concurrent private placements.

The Company’s ability to borrow under the Credit Facility is subject to its ongoing compliance with a number of customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations with respect to liens, indebtedness, distributions, mergers, consolidations, investments, restricted payments and asset sales, as well as financial maintenance covenants. At September 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under the Credit Facility.

Through September 30, 2015, the Company had invested in 33 real estate properties for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $111.0 million. These real estate investments were funded from the net proceeds received from the Company’s initial public offering and concurrent private placements. See Notes 4 and 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more details on these acquisitions.

Subsequent acquisitions

The Company has 11 properties under definitive purchase agreement for an aggregate expected purchase price of approximately $18.4 million. The Company’s expected returns on these properties range from approximately 9.2% to 10.2% with anticipated closing dates during the fourth quarter of 2015. The Company is currently performing due diligence procedures customary for these types of transactions and cannot provide any assurance as to the timing of when or whether these transactions will actually close.

The Company’s revenues are derived from its real estate investments based on contractual arrangements with its tenants and borrowers. These revenues, as well as future debt and equity offerings and borrowings under the Credit Facility, will be the Company’s primary sources of liquidity to fund future acquisitions, pay dividends and operating expenses, including general and administrative expenses, interest incurred on debt, and other expenses incurred in connection with managing its real estate portfolio.

The Company expects to meet it liquidity needs through cash on hand, cash flows from operations and cash flows from sources discussed above. The Company believes that its liquidity and sources of capital are adequate to satisfy its cash requirements. The Company cannot, however, be certain that these sources of funds will be available at a time and upon terms acceptable to the Company in sufficient amounts to meet its liquidity needs.

Financing Activities

Cash flows provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were approximately $125.6 million and $2,000, respectively. During the second quarter of 2015, the Company completed its initial public offering and concurrently issued common stock in private placements and received net proceeds of approximately $127.5 million. See Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more details. During the first quarter of 2014, the Company issued 200,000 shares of common stock to its officers in connection with the formation of the Company for net proceeds of $2,000.

Investing Activities

Cash flows used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were approximately $111.0 million and $0, respectively. Through September 30, 2015, the Company had invested in 33 properties. There were no investing activities in 2014.

Operating Activities

Cash flows provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were approximately $1.5 million and $0, respectively. Cash flows provided by operating activities were generally provided by contractual rents, net of expenses, including costs related to the Company’s initial public offering and property acquisitions. There were no operating activities in 2014.

Security Deposits

As of September 30, 2015, the Company held approximately $137,000 in security deposits for the benefit of the Company in the event the obligated tenant fails to perform under the terms of its respective lease. Generally, the Company may, at its discretion and upon notification to the tenant, draw upon the security deposits if there are any defaults under the leases.

Dividends

The Company is required to pay dividends to its stockholders at least equal to 90% of its taxable income in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT.

On September 3, 2015, the Company paid a cash dividend in the amount of $0.142 per share for the period beginning May 27, 2015 and ended June 30, 2015. This rate equates to an annual dividend of $1.50 per share.

The Company's board of directors declared a quarterly common stock dividend on November 6, 2015, payable on December 4, 2015 to stockholders of record on November 20, 2015. This dividend, in the amount of $0.375 per share, is for the period July 1, 2015 through September 30, 2015 and equates to an annualized dividend of $1.50 per share.

The ability of the Company to pay dividends is dependent upon its ability to generate cash flows and to make accretive new investments.

Funds from Operations

Funds from operations (“FFO”) and FFO per share are operating performance measures adopted by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as the most commonly accepted and reported measure of a REIT’s operating performance equal to “net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization related to real estate properties, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.”

Management believes that net income (loss), as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measurement. However, management believes FFO and FFO per share to be supplemental measures of a REIT’s performance because they provide an understanding of the operating performance of the Company’s properties without giving effect to certain significant non-cash items, primarily depreciation and amortization expense. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. However, real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. The Company believes that by excluding the effect of depreciation, amortization and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs and which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance, FFO and FFO per share can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods. The Company reports FFO and FFO per share because these measures are observed by management to also be the predominant measures used by the REIT industry and by industry analysts to evaluate REITs and because FFO per share is consistently reported, discussed, and compared by research analysts in their notes and publications about REITs. For these reasons, management has deemed it appropriate to disclose and discuss FFO and FFO per share. However, FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to common stockholders as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity.

The table below reconciles FFO to net loss.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevailing market interest rates. Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. We may use certain derivative financial instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings. We will not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and only enter into contracts with major financial institutions based upon their credit rating and other factors. An interest rate swap is a contractual agreement entered into by two counterparties under which each agrees to make periodic payments to the other for an agreed period of time based on a notional amount of principal. Under the most common form of interest rate swap, known from our perspective as a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap, a series of floating, or variable, rate payments on a notional amount of principal is exchanged for a series of fixed interest rate payments on such notional amount. Though the Company had not engaged in hedging activities as of September 30, 2015, no assurance can be given that any future hedging activities by us will have the desired beneficial effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, Company’s management has concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act.

Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting due to a transition period established by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for newly public companies.

On May 20, 2015, the SEC declared effective our Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-203210) in connection with our initial public offering, pursuant to which we registered and sold 7,187,500 shares of our common stock, which includes 937,500 shares of common stock issued in connection with the exercise in full of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, for an aggregate offering amount of $136.6 million.

The Company received net proceeds of approximately $125.2 million from the offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $9.6 million and offering expenses of approximately $1.6 million. Sandler O'Neill & Partners, L.P., Evercore Group L.L.C., and SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc., are acting as joint book-running managers of the underwriters for the offering. Janney Montgomery Scott LLC, Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. and BB&T Capital Markets acted as co-lead managers for the offering.

Through November 6, 2015, the Company had used the net proceeds from the offering, as well as some cash from operations to invest in 35 real estate properties and one mortgage, totaling approximately 631,000 square feet, for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $125.6 million.
