DVCR Diversicare Healthcare Services Inc

The Company has reached an agreement in principal with Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. (NYSE: OHI) to amend its master lease to terminate operations of ten nursing facilities located in Kentucky, totaling approximately 885 skilled nursing beds, and to concurrently transfer operations to an operator selected by Omega. The transaction is subject to closing conditions, including but not limited to, state licensure, regulatory approval, due diligence and successful sale of the real estate by Omega. Upon the completion of the transaction, Diversicare will no longer operate any skilled nursing centers in the State of Kentucky. The transaction is expected to become effective in the third quarter of 2019.

Jay McKnight, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Diversicare has operated in Kentucky for 25 years; we have a great team of caregivers and good relationships with our patients, residents and their families. As a result, this is not a decision we made lightly, but we have concluded that it is in the best interest of Diversicare and its shareholders to focus on our operations in other regions and other opportunities within our existing portfolio.”
