The company earned $0.11 per diluted share, falling short of the $0.17 consensus estimate by 35.29%, weighed down by a $9.06 million net loss on real estate sales that contrasted with a $6.06 million gain in the year-ago period, along with higher depreciation tied to portfolio growth. Revenue climbed to $211.90 million, beating the $188.73 million consensus by 12.28% and rising 16.2% year over year, fueled by surging resident fees from the managed senior housing build-out. On the non-GAAP side, Normalized FFO held firmer at $0.36 per share, while same-property managed senior housing Cash NOI grew 12.6% in the quarter. Looking ahead, Sabra initiated 2026 guidance for Normalized FFO of $1.49 to $1.53 per share and expects to exceed its 2025 investment volume of roughly $450 million, with $240 million in awarded deals largely expected to close in early 2026.
Key Takeaways
- • Same property managed senior housing Cash NOI increased 12.6% YoY in Q4 2025, with 2025 quarterly YoY average increase of 15.0%
- • Managed senior housing consolidated occupancy improved to 84.8% in Q4 2025 from 83.5% in Q4 2024

SBRA Forward Guidance & Outlook
Sabra initiated 2026 full-year guidance: Net Income $0.60-$0.64 per diluted share; FFO and Normalized FFO $1.49-$1.53 per diluted share; AFFO and Normalized AFFO $1.55-$1.59 per diluted share, representing approximately 4.9% and 5.4% year-over-year growth at the midpoint for Normalized FFO and Normalized AFFO, respectively.

With YoY comparisons, source: SEC Filings
“We are pleased to introduce 2026 Normalized FFO and Normalized AFFO guidance at 4.9% and 5.4% year over year growth at the midpoint, respectively, building on a successful 2025. Our investment pipeline remains robust, and 2026 has gotten off to a strong start with $240 million of awarded investments, much of which should close in Q1 and early Q2. Given the promising start to the year, we expect to exceed 2025's investment total and anticipate making skilled nursing investments in addition to our strategic focus on growing our managed senior housing portfolio. Sabra's operational results continue to trend positively, as we have seen over the last year plus. Managed senior housing occupancy and margins continue to increase, triple-net senior housing remains stable with strong rent coverage and occupancy, and our skilled nursing portfolio's upward trajectory in occupancy and rent coverage continues. Additionally, our top ten tenants had another strong showing. We are excited about the prospects for 2026.”
