Sabra REIT grows Q3 FFO 8% YoY, raises FY26 guidance on $750M deployment, targets 50% SHOP by end-2027.

Sabra Health Care REIT reported normalized FFO per share of $0.39 in Q3 2026, up 8% year-over-year, and raised full-year 2026 guidance by $0.005 at the midpoint to reflect 7% FFO and 8% AFFO growth. The company has deployed $747 million year-to-date (all SHOP except $100M skilled nursing) with another $425 million awarded, and disclosed a strategic shift toward 50% SHOP exposure by end-2027 from the current 40%, driven by strong senior housing operating portfolio sequential NOI growth of 8.5% and same-store SHOP revenue growth of 9.3% YoY. Skilled nursing lease coverage ratios remain well above 2.0x, and management is actively negotiating two additional optimization opportunities—one similar to the Avamere transition and one involving a lease expiration—expected to contribute nearly a full year's impact to 2027 earnings.

Read filing description ↓

We operate as a self-administered, self-managed REIT that, through our subsidiaries, owns and invests in real estate serving the healthcare industry. Our primary business consists of acquiring, financing and owning real estate property to be leased to third-party tenants in the healthcare sector. We primarily generate revenues by leasing properties to tenants and owning properties operated by third-party property managers throughout the United States and Canada. Our investment portfolio is primarily comprised of skilled nursing/transitional care facilities, senior housing communities ('Senior Housing - Leased'), behavioral health facilities, and specialty hospitals and other facilities, in each case leased to third-party operators; senior housing communities operated by third-party property managers pursuant to property management agreements ('Senior Housing - Managed'); investments in joint ventures; loans receivable; and preferred equity investments. We expect to grow our investment portfolio while diversifying our portfolio by tenant, facility type and geography within the healthcare sector. We plan to achieve these objectives primarily through making investments directly or indirectly in healthcare real estate, including the development of purpose-built healthcare facilities with select developers. We also intend to achieve our objective of diversifying our portfolio by tenant and facility type through select asset sales and other arrangements with our tenants. We employ a disciplined approach in our healthcare real estate investment strategy by investing in assets that provide attractive opportunities for dividend growth and appreciation of asset values, while maintaining balance sheet strength and liquidity, thereby creating long-term stockholder value.
