Bethesda, MD – March 3, 2021 -- (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Global Medical REIT Inc. (NYSE: GMRE) (the “Company” or “GMRE”), a net-lease medical office real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns and acquires purpose-built healthcare facilities and leases those facilities to strong healthcare systems and groups with leading market share, today announced financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2020 and other data.

Fourth Quarter 2020 Summary

Full-Year 2020 Summary

Jeffrey M. Busch, Chief Executive Officer stated, “We are pleased with our accomplishments for 2020 given the challenging environment due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We reached a milestone of growing our portfolio to over $1 billion in value, completed our internalization and completed 18 acquisitions for a total of $226 million at a 7.8% weighted average cap rate. We also successfully extended 7.1% of our ABR with four important lease renewals totaling 221,000 square feet. Finally, we announced our first quarterly dividend increase since the IPO.”

Mr. Busch continued, “Our portfolio proved to be highly resilient in the face of one of the most dramatic economic shocks in modern history. Our tenants remained open for business through the most challenging months of the healthcare crisis and, importantly, nearly all met their rent obligations to us. We are optimistic about what lies ahead given the deployment of the COVID-19 vaccine, our portfolio growth, and the future earnings accretion we expect from our internalization. We intend to continue our strategy of scaling our platform with properties and tenants that meet our underwriting criteria, growing AFFO per share, and providing our stockholders with a compelling total return over the long term.”

ABOUT GLOBAL MEDICAL REIT

Global Medical REIT Inc. is net-lease medical office REIT that acquires purpose-built specialized healthcare facilities and leases those facilities to strong healthcare systems and physician groups with leading market share.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

FFO and AFFO are non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company considers FFO and AFFO to be important supplemental measures of its operating performance and believes FFO is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. In accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts’ (“NAREIT”) definition, FFO means net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP before non-controlling interests of holders of OP units and LTIP units, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and extraordinary items, less preferred stock dividends, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and above-market lease amortization expense), and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Because FFO excludes real estate-related depreciation and amortization (other than amortization of deferred financing costs and above market lease amortization expense), the Company believes that FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared period-over-period, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities and interest costs, providing perspective not immediately apparent from the closest GAAP measurement, net income or loss.

AFFO is a non-GAAP measure used by many investors and analysts to measure a real estate company’s operating performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. Management calculates AFFO by modifying the NAREIT computation of FFO by adjusting it for certain cash and non-cash items and certain recurring and non-recurring items. For the Company these items include: (a) management internalization costs (including a one-time expense related to the settlement of a pre-existing contractual relationship) (b) recurring acquisition and disposition costs, (c) loss on the extinguishment of debt, (d) recurring straight line deferred rental revenue, (e) recurring stock-based compensation expense, (f) recurring amortization of above market leases, (g) recurring amortization of deferred financing costs, (h) recurring lease commissions, and (i) other items.

Management believes that reporting AFFO in addition to FFO is a useful supplemental measure for the investment community to use when evaluating the operating performance of the Company on a comparative basis. The Company’s FFO and AFFO computations may not be comparable to FFO and AFFO reported by other REITs that do not compute FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, that interpret the NAREIT definition differently than the Company does, or that compute FFO and AFFO in a different manner.

RENT COVERAGE RATIO

For purposes of calculating our portfolio weighted-average EBITDARM coverage ratio (“Rent Coverage Ratio”), we excluded credit-rated tenants or their subsidiaries for which financial statements were either not available or not sufficiently detailed. These ratios are based on latest available information only. Most tenant financial statements are unaudited and we have not independently verified any tenant financial information (audited or unaudited) and, therefore, we cannot assure you that such information is accurate or complete. Certain other tenants (approximately 7% of our portfolio) are excluded from the calculation due to (i) lack of available financial information or (ii) receipt of significant COVID-19 relief funds that may cause reported coverage to differ materially from underlying performance. Additionally, our Rent Coverage Ratio adds back physician distributions and compensation. Management believes all adjustments are reasonable and necessary.

ANNUALIZED BASE RENT

Annualized base rent represents December 31, 2020 base rent multiplied by 12 (or actual NOI for where more reflective of property performance).

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
