MEDICAL PROPERTIES TRUST, INC. AND MPT OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P.

AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Organization

Medical Properties Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was formed on August 27, 2003, under the Maryland General Corporation Law for the purpose of engaging in the business of investing in, owning, and leasing commercial real estate. Our operating partnership subsidiary, MPT Operating Partnership, L.P., (the “Operating Partnership”) through which we conduct all of our operations, was formed in September 2003. Through another wholly-owned subsidiary, Medical Properties Trust, LLC, we are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. At present, we directly own substantially all of the limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership and have elected to report our required disclosures and that of the Operating Partnership on a combined basis except where material differences exist.

We have operated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) since April 6, 2004, and accordingly, elected REIT status upon the filing in September 2005 of the calendar year 2004 federal income tax return. Accordingly, we will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, provided that we continue to qualify as a REIT and our distributions to our stockholders equal or exceed our taxable income. Certain activities we undertake must be conducted by entities which we elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”). Our TRSs are subject to both U.S. federal and state income taxes.

Our primary business strategy is to acquire and develop real estate and improvements, primarily for long-term lease to providers of healthcare services such as operators of general acute care hospitals, inpatient physical rehabilitation hospitals, long-term acute care hospitals, surgery centers, centers for treatment of specific conditions such as cardiac, pulmonary, cancer, and neurological hospitals, and other healthcare-oriented facilities. We also make mortgage and other loans to operators of similar facilities. In addition, we may obtain profits or equity interests in our tenants, from time to time, in order to enhance our overall return. We manage our business as a single business segment. All of our properties are located in the United States and Europe—we made our first acquisition outside the United States in the fourth quarter of 2013.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements: The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information, including rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2014, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2013 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.

For information about significant accounting policies, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, there were no material changes to these policies, except as noted below with respect to discontinued operations.

Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications have been made to the condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2014 consolidated financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on stockholders’ equity or net income.

Recent Accounting Development: In 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity (“ASU 2014-08”), which raises the threshold for disposals to qualify as discontinued operations. A discontinued operation is defined as: (1) a component of an entity or group of components that has been disposed of or classified as held for sale and represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results; or (2) an acquired business that is classified as held for sale on the acquisition date. ASU 2014-08 also requires additional disclosures regarding discontinued operations, as well as material disposals that do not meet the definition of discontinued operations. We adopted ASU 2014-08 for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The application of this guidance is prospective from the date of adoption and should result in our not generally having to reflect single property disposals as discontinued operations in the future.

Variable Interest Entities

At March 31, 2014, we had loans to and/or equity investments in several variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which we are not the primary beneficiary. The carrying value and classification of the related assets and maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with these VIEs are presented below at March 31, 2014 (in thousands):


VIE Type	Maximum Loss Exposure(1)		Asset Type Classification	Carrying Amount(2)
Loans, net	$	268,881	Mortgage and other loans	$	210,523
Equity investments	$	18,827	Other assets	$	5,040

(1)

Our maximum loss exposure related to loans with VIEs represents our current aggregate gross carrying value of the loan plus accrued interest and any other related assets (such as rents receivable), less any liabilities. Our maximum loss exposure related to our equity investment in VIEs represents the current carrying values of such investment plus any other related assets (such as rent receivables) less any liabilities.

(2)	Carrying amount reflects the net book value of our loan or equity interest only in the VIE.

For the VIE types above, we do not consolidate the VIE because we do not have the ability to control the activities (such as the day-to-day healthcare operations of our borrower or investee) that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. As of March 31, 2014, we were not required to provide financial support through a liquidity arrangement or otherwise to our unconsolidated VIEs, including circumstances in which it could be exposed to further losses (e.g., cash short falls).

Typically, our loans are collateralized by assets of the borrower (some assets of which are on the premises of facilities owned by us) and further supported by limited guarantees made by certain principals of the borrower.

See Note 3 for additional description of the nature, purpose and activities of our more significant VIEs and interests therein.

3. Real Estate and Lending Activities

Acquisitions

On March 31, 2014, we acquired a general acute care hospital and an adjacent parcel for an aggregate purchase price of $115 million from a joint venture of LHP Hospital Group, Inc. and Hackensack University Medical Center Mountainside. The facility was simultaneously leased back to the seller under a lease with a 15-year initial term with a 3-year extension option, followed by a further 12-year extension option at fair market value. The lease provides for consumer price-indexed annual rent increases, subject to a specified floor and ceiling. The lease includes a customary right of first refusal with respect to a subsequent proposed sale of the facility.

With this transaction, we acquired the following assets:


	2014
Assets Acquired
Land	$	8,515
Building		99,602
Intangible lease assets — subject to amortization (weighted average useful life 15 years)		6,883

Total assets acquired	$	115,000
Total liabilities assumed		—

Net assets acquired	$	115,000

The purchase price allocation attributable to the facility acquired in the 2014 first quarter along with the facilities acquired from IASIS and RHM in the 2013 third and fourth quarters is preliminary as we are waiting on additional information to perform our final analysis. When all relevant information is obtained, and if changes to our provisional purchase price allocation are needed, we will retrospectively adjust to reflect the new information obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the respective acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of that date.

Development Activities

During the 2014 first quarter, we completed construction and began recording rental income on the following three facilities:

•

Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital – This $19 million inpatient rehabilitation facility located in South Ogden, Utah is leased to Ernest pursuant to the 2012 master lease.

•

First Choice ER – Nacogdoches – This is a $5 million acute care facility located in San Antonio, Texas and is leased to First Choice ER pursuant to the master lease entered into in 2013.

•

First Choice ER – Alvin – This is a $5 million acute care facility located in Houston, Texas and is leased to First Choice ER pursuant to the master lease entered into in 2013.

In the first quarter of 2014, we began construction on 9 additional facilities pursuant to the master funding and development agreement with First Choice ER.

In regards to our Twelve Oaks facility, approximately 55% of this facility is being occupied, pursuant to a 15 year lease.

Leasing Operations

All of our leases are accounted for as operating leases except for the master lease of 13 Ernest facilities and five Prime facilities which are accounted for as direct financing leases (“DFLs”). The components of our net investment in DFLs consisted of the following (dollars in thousands):


	As of March 31, 2014			As of December 31, 2013
Minimum lease payments receivable	$	1,637,092		$	1,647,567
Estimated residual values		211,888			211,863
Less: Unearned income		(1,416,323	)		(1,428,406	)

Net investment in direct financing leases	$	432,657		$	431,024

Monroe Facility

As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our net investment (exclusive of the related real estate) in Monroe was as follows:


	As of March 31, 2014			As of December 31, 2013
Loans	$	33,726		$	31,341
Less: Loan impairment reserve		(32,354	)		(12,000	)
Loans, net		1,372			19,341

Interest, rent and other receivables*		20,992			20,972

Net investment	$	22,364		$	40,313

Includes approximately $ 6 million of interest receivables that are significantly more than 90 days past due

The operator of our Monroe facility has not made all payments required by the real estate lease agreement and working capital loan agreement, and we have deemed the loan to be impaired. During 2010, we recorded a $12 million impairment charge on the working capital loan and fully reserved for unbilled straight-line rent receivables as well. Since 2010, we have not recognized any interest income on the Monroe loan and have not recorded any unbilled rent revenue. In addition, we stopped recording billed rental revenue on April 1, 2013, until we begin receiving cash payments.

During the first quarter of 2014, we commenced and have recently executed a non-binding letter of intent with a third party with respect to a restructuring of our investment in the form of a new joint venture that would acquire the real estate of our Monroe facility and related assets in exchange for a combination of cash and promissory notes. We will also be entitled to additional cash, if any, generated from our share in the new joint venture’s operations (but not be liable to fund any losses or other cash needs) during its first five years of operations. While we expect the transaction to close during the second half of 2014, the transaction is contingent upon, among other things, the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements and the completion of satisfactory due diligence, and we cannot assure you that it will be consummated on the terms described above or at all. Based on these new developments and the current fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral (using Level 2 inputs), we believe an additional reserve on our loan is needed and as a result we recorded an approximate $20.5 million impairment charge in the 2014 first quarter. If the transaction is not completed as currently expected or if the terms of such anticipated transaction change, further impairment charges could be incurred.

Florence facility

On March 6, 2013, the tenant of our facility in Phoenix, Arizona filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy; but continues to pay rent. We have a letter of credit for approximately $1.2 million to cover any rent and other monetary payments not made. Although no assurances can be made that we will not have any impairment charges in the future, we believe our real estate investment in Florence of approximately $28 million at March 31, 2014, is fully recoverable.

Gilbert facility

In the first quarter of 2014, the tenant of our facility in Gilbert, Arizona filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy; we sent notice of termination of the lease prior to the bankruptcy filing. As a result of the lease terminating, we recorded an accrual charge of approximately $1 million to reserve against the straight-line rent receivables. In addition, we accelerated the amortization of the related lease intangible asset resulting in $1.1 million of additional expense in the 2014 first quarter. At March 31, 2014, we have $0.1 million of outstanding receivables, which we believe are collectible. Although no assurances can be made that we will not have any impairment charges or write-offs of receivables in the future, we believe our real estate investment in Gilbert of approximately $14 million at March 31, 2014, is fully recoverable.

Loans

The following is a summary of our loans (in thousands):


	As of March 31, 2014		As of December 31, 2013
Mortgage loans	$	388,650	$	388,650
Acquisition loans		103,016		103,266
Working capital and other loans		35,184		54,372
Convertible loan		3,352		3,352

	$	530,202	$	549,640

The decrease in our working capital and other loans is due to the $20 million impairment charge incurred on our Monroe loan during the 2014 first quarter – see Note 3 for further discussion.

On March 1, 2012, pursuant to our convertible note agreement, we converted $1.7 million of our $5.0 million convertible note into a 9.9% equity interest in the operator of our Hoboken University Medical Center facility. At March 31, 2014, $3.3 million remains outstanding on the convertible note, and we retain the option, subject to regulatory approvals, to convert this remainder into 15.1% of equity interest in the operator.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, revenue from affiliates of Ernest (including rent and interest from mortgage and acquisition loans) accounted for 19.5% and 20.5% of total revenue, respectively. From an investment concentration perspective, Ernest represented 15.8% and 15.9% of our total assets at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, revenue from affiliates of Prime (including rent and interest from mortgage loans) accounted for 29.1% and 31.4%, respectively, of total revenue. From an investment concentration perspective, Prime represented 23.5% and 24.5% of our total assets at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

On an individual property basis, we had no investment of any single property greater than 4% of our total assets as of March 31, 2014.

From a geographic perspective, investments located in California represented 17.9% of our total assets at March 31, 2014, down from 18.7% at December 31, 2013. Investments located in Texas represented 22.0% of our total assets at March 31, 2014, down slightly from 22.7% at December 31, 2013. In addition, we further expanded our portfolio into Europe with the RHM portfolio acquisition in 2013, which represents less than 8% of total assets at March 31, 2014.

4. Debt

	$	1,472,045				$	1,421,681

(A)

These notes are Euro-denominated and reflect the exchange rate at March 31, 2014.

As of March 31, 2014, principal payments due on our debt (which exclude the effects of any premium recorded) are as follows (in thousands):


2014	$	198
2015		155,283
2016		225,299
2017		320
2018		12,781
Thereafter		1,075,379

Total	$	1,469,260

During the second quarter 2010, we entered into an interest rate swap to manage our exposure to variable interest rates by fixing $65 million of our 2006 Senior Unsecured Notes, which started July 31, 2011 (date on which the interest rate turned variable) through maturity date (or July 2016), at a rate of 5.507%. We also entered into an interest rate swap to fix $60 million of our 2006 Senior Unsecured Notes which started October 31, 2011 (date on which the related interest rate turned variable) through the maturity date (or October 2016) at a rate of 5.675%. The fair value of the interest rate swaps was $8.3 million and $9.0 million as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, which is reflected in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets.

We designated our interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of our swaps is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income/loss on the balance sheet and reclassified into earnings in the same period, or periods, during which the hedged transactions effect earnings, while any ineffective portion is recorded through earnings immediately. We did not have any hedge ineffectiveness in the periods; therefore, there was no income statement effect recorded during the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 or 2013. We do not expect any of the current losses included in

accumulated other comprehensive loss to be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had $4.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively, posted as collateral, which is currently reflected in other assets on our consolidated balance sheets.

Covenants

Our debt facilities impose certain restrictions on us, including restrictions on our ability to: incur debts; create or incur liens; provide guarantees in respect of obligations of any other entity; make redemptions and repurchases of our capital stock; prepay, redeem or repurchase debt; engage in mergers or consolidations; enter into affiliated transactions; dispose of real estate or other assets; and change our business. In addition, the credit agreements governing our revolving credit facility and term loan limit the amount of dividends we can pay as a percentage of normalized adjusted funds from operations, as defined in the agreements, on a rolling four quarter basis. At March 31, 2014, the dividend restriction was 95% of normalized adjusted FFO. The indentures governing our 2011, 2012 and 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes also limit the amount of dividends we can pay based on the sum of 95% of funds from operations, proceeds of equity issuances and certain other net cash proceeds. Finally, our 2011, 2012 and 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes require us to maintain total unencumbered assets (as defined in the related indenture) of not less than 150% of our unsecured indebtedness.

In addition to these restrictions, the revolving credit facility and term loan contain customary financial and operating covenants, including covenants relating to our total leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, mortgage secured leverage ratio, recourse mortgage secured leverage ratio, consolidated adjusted net worth, facility leverage ratio, and unsecured interest coverage ratio. This facility also contains customary events of default, including among others, nonpayment of principal or interest, material inaccuracy of representations and failure to comply with our covenants. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the facility, the entire outstanding balance may become immediately due and payable. At March 31, 2014, we were in compliance with all such financial and operating covenants.

5. Common Stock/Partner’s Capital

Medical Properties Trust, Inc.

On March 11, 2014, we completed an underwritten public offering of 7.7 million shares of our common stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $100.2 million, after deducting estimated offering expenses. We also granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1.2 million shares of common stock. The option, which was exercised in full, closed on April 8, 2014 and resulted in additional net proceeds of approximately $16 million.

In January 2014, we put an at-the-market equity offering program in place, giving us the ability to sell up to $250 million of stock with a commission of 1.25%. During the 2014 first quarter, we sold 0.9 million shares of our common stock under our at-the-market equity offering program, at an average price of $13.21 per share resulting in total proceeds, net of commission, of $12.3 million.

On February 28, 2013, we completed an offering of 12.7 million shares of our common stock (including 1.7 million shares sold pursuant to the exercise in full of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares) at a price of $14.25 per share, resulting in net proceeds (after underwriting discount and expenses) of $172.9 million.

MPT Operating Partnership, L.P.

At March 31, 2014, the Company has a 99.8% ownership interest in the Operating Partnership with the remainder owned by three other partners, two of whom are employees and one of whom is a director. During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the partnership issued 8.6 million and 12.7 million units, respectively, in direct response to the common stock offerings by Medical Properties Trust, Inc.

6. Stock Awards

We adopted the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) during second quarter of 2013, which authorizes the issuance of common stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance units and awards of interests in our Operating Partnership. The Equity Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. We have reserved 7,643,651 shares of common stock for awards under the Equity Incentive Plan for which 6,451,291 shares remain available for future stock awards as of March 31, 2014. We awarded the following during the 2014 and 2013 first quarters:

Time-based awards—We granted 338,484 and 258,736 shares in 2014 and 2013, respectively, of time-based restricted stock to management, independent directors and certain employees. These awards vest quarterly based on service, over three years, in equal amounts.

Performance-based awards—Our management team and certain employees were awarded 317,254 and 222,566 performance based awards in 2014 and 2013, respectively. These awards vest ratably over a three year period based on the achievement of certain total shareholder return measures, with a carry-back and carry-forward provision through December 31, 2017 (for the 2013 awards) and December 31, 2018 (for the 2014 awards). Dividends on these awards are paid only upon achievement of the performance measures.

Multi-year Performance-based awards—We awarded 500,000 and 550,000 shares in 2014 and 2013, respectively, of multi-year performance-based awards to management. These shares are subject to three-year cumulative performance hurdles based on measures of total shareholder return. At the end of the three-year performance period, any earned shares will be subject to an additional two years of ratable time-based vesting on an annual basis. Dividends are paid on these shares only upon achievement of the performance measures.

7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We have various assets and liabilities that are considered financial instruments. We estimate that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values. Included in our accounts payable and accrued expenses are our interest rate swaps, which are recorded at fair value based on Level 2 observable market assumptions using standardized derivative pricing models. We estimate the fair value of our interest and rent receivables using Level 2 inputs such as discounting the estimated future cash flows using the current rates at which similar receivables would be made to others with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The fair value of our mortgage loans and working capital loans are estimated by using Level 2 inputs such as discounting the estimated future cash flows using the current rates which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. We determine the fair value of our 2011, 2012 and 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes, using Level 2 inputs such as quotes from securities dealers and market makers. We estimate the fair value of our 2006 Senior Unsecured Notes, revolving credit facilities, and term loans using Level 2 inputs based on the present value of future payments, discounted at a rate which we consider appropriate for such debt.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, are subjective in nature, and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment. Settlement of such fair value amounts may not be possible and may not be a prudent management decision. The following table summarizes fair value estimates for our financial instruments (in thousands):


	March 31, 2014						December 31, 2013
Asset (Liability)	Book Value			Fair Value			Book Value			Fair Value
Interest and rent receivables	$	63,174		$	62,901		$	58,499		$	44,349
Loans (1)		332,419			348,495			351,607			358,277
Debt, net		(1,472,045	)		(1,553,093	)		(1,421,681	)		(1,486,090	)

(1)	Excludes loans related to the Ernest Transaction since they are recorded at fair value and discussed below.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Our equity interest in Ernest and related loans, which were acquired in 2012, are being measured at fair value on a recurring basis as we elected to account for these investments using the fair value option method. We have elected to account for these investments at fair value due to the size of the investments and because we believe this method is more reflective of current values. We have not made a similar election for other equity interests or loans.

At March 31, 2014, these amounts were as follows (in thousands):


Asset Type	Fair Value		Cost		Asset Type Classification
Mortgage loans	$	100,000	$	100,000	Mortgage loans
Acquisition loan		97,783		97,783	Other loans
Equity investments		3,300		3,300	Other assets

	$	201,083	$	201,083

Our mortgage loans with Ernest are recorded at fair value based on Level 3 inputs by discounting the estimated cash flows using the market rates which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and the same remaining maturities. Our acquisition loan and equity investments in Ernest are recorded at fair value based on Level 3 inputs, by using a discounted cash flow model, which requires significant estimates of our investee such as projected revenue and expenses and appropriate consideration of the underlying risk profile of the forecast assumptions associated with the investee. We classify these loans and equity investments as Level 3, as we use certain unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the fair value measurement, and the valuation requires management judgment due to the absence of quoted market prices. For these cash flow models, our observable inputs include use of a capitalization rate, discount rate (which is based on a weighted-average cost of capital), and market interest rates, and our unobservable input includes an adjustment for a marketability discount (“DLOM”) on our equity investment of 40% at March 31, 2014.

In regards to the underlying projection of revenues and expenses used in the discounted cash flow model, such projections are provided by Ernest. However, we will modify such projections (including underlying assumptions used) as needed based on our review and analysis of Ernest’s historical results, meetings with key members of management, and our understanding of trends and developments within the healthcare industry.

In arriving at the DLOM, we started with a DLOM range based on the results of studies supporting valuation discounts for other transactions or structures without a public market. To select the appropriate DLOM within the range, we then considered many qualitative factors including the percent of control, the nature of the underlying investee’s business along with our rights as an investor pursuant to the operating agreement, the size of investment, expected holding period, number of shareholders, access to capital marketplace, etc. To illustrate the effect of movements in the DLOM, we performed a sensitivity analysis below by using basis point variations (dollars in thousands):


Basis Point Change in Marketability Discount	Estimated Increase (Decrease) In Fair Value
+100 basis points	$	(344	)
- 100 basis points		344

Because the fair value of Ernest investments noted above approximate their original cost, we did not recognize any unrealized gains/losses during the first quarter of 2014.

8. Discontinued Operations

10. Contingencies

We are a party to various legal proceedings incidental to our business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate liability, if any, with respect to those proceedings is not presently expected to materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

11. Subsequent Events

On April 17, 2014, we completed a $300 million senior unsecured notes offering (“2014 Senior Unsecured Notes”). Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1 of each year, commencing on November 1, 2014. The 2014 Senior Unsecured Notes will pay interest in cash at a rate of 5.50% per year. The Notes mature on May 1, 2024. We may redeem some or all of the 2014 Senior Unsecured Notes at any time prior to May 1, 2019 at a “make-whole” redemption price. On or after May 1, 2019, we may redeem some or all of the Notes at a premium that will decrease over time. In addition, at any time and from time to time prior to May 1, 2017, we may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2014 Senior Unsecured Notes using the proceeds

of one or more equity offerings. The 2014 Senior Unsecured Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis, by certain subsidiary guarantors. In the event of a change of control, each holder of the 2014 Senior Unsecured Notes may require us to repurchase some or all of our 2014 Senior Unsecured Notes at a repurchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2014 Senior Unsecured Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase.

12. Condensed Consolidating Financial Information

The following tables present the condensed consolidating financial information for (a) Medical Properties Trust, Inc. (“Parent” and a guarantor to our 2011, 2012 and 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes), (b) MPT Operating Partnership, L.P. and MPT Finance Corporation (“Subsidiary Issuers”), (c) on a combined basis, the guarantors of our 2011, 2012 and 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes (“Subsidiary Guarantors”), and (d) on a combined basis, the non-guarantor subsidiaries (“Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”). Separate financial statements of the Subsidiary Guarantors are not presented because the guarantee by each 100% owned Subsidiary Guarantor is joint and several, and we believe separate financial statements and other disclosures regarding the Subsidiary Guarantors are not material to investors. Furthermore, there are no significant legal restrictions on the Parent’s ability to obtain funds from its subsidiaries by dividend or loan.

The guarantees by the Subsidiary Guarantors may be released and discharged upon: (1) any sale, exchange or transfer of all of the capital stock of a Subsidiary Guarantor; (2) the merger or consolidation of a Subsidiary Guarantor with a Subsidiary Issuer or any other Subsidiary Guarantor; (3) the proper designation of any Subsidiary Guarantor by the Subsidiary Issuers as “unrestricted” for covenant purposes under the indenture governing the 2011, 2012 and 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes; (4) the legal defeasance or covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the indenture; (5) a liquidation or dissolution of a Subsidiary Guarantor permitted under the indenture governing the 2011, 2012 and 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes; or (6) the release or discharge of the Subsidiary Guarantor from its guarantee obligations under our revolving credit facility.

Subsequent to March 31, 2013, certain of our subsidiaries were re-designated as non-guarantors of our 2011, 2012 and 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes as the underlying properties were sold in 2013. In addition, certain of our subsidiaries previously classified as non-guarantors are guarantors as of March 31, 2014. With these re-designations, we have restated the 2013 consolidating financial information below to reflect these changes.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations are presented on a combined basis for Medical Properties Trust and MPT Operating Partnership, L.P. as there are no material differences between these two entities.

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations should be read together with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in this Form 10-Q and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Forward-Looking Statements.

This report on Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results or future performance, achievements or transactions or events to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and as updated in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for future periods, and current reports on Form 8-K as we file them with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such factors include, among others, the following:

•

U.S. (both national and local) and European (in particular Germany) economic, business, real estate and other market conditions;

•

the competitive environment in which we operate;

•

the execution of our business plan;

•

financing risks;

•

acquisition and development risks;

•

potential environmental contingencies and other liabilities;

•

other factors affecting real estate industry generally or the healthcare real estate industry in particular;

•

our ability to maintain our status as a REIT for federal and state income tax purposes;

•

our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel;

•

changes in foreign currency exchange rates;

•

U.S. (both federal and state) and European (in particular Germany) healthcare, and other regulatory requirements; and

•

U.S. national and local economic conditions, as well as conditions in Europe and other foreign jurisdictions where we own or will own healthcare facilities, which may have a negative effect on the following, among other things:

•

the financial condition of our tenants, our lenders, and institutions that hold our cash balances, which may expose us to increased risks of default by these parties;

•

our ability to obtain equity or debt financing on attractive terms or at all, which may adversely impact our ability to pursue acquisition and development opportunities and reference existing debt and our future interest expense; and

•

the value of our real estate assets, which may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or obtain or maintain debt financing secured by our properties or on an unsecured basis.

Key Factors that May Affect Our Operations

Our revenues are derived primarily from rents we earn pursuant to the lease agreements with our tenants and from interest income from loans to our tenants and other facility owners. Our tenants operate in the healthcare industry, generally providing medical, surgical and rehabilitative care to patients. The capacity of our tenants to pay our rents and interest is dependent upon their ability to conduct their operations at profitable levels. We believe that the business environment of the industry segments in which our tenants operate is generally positive for efficient operators. However, our tenants’ operations are subject to economic, regulatory and market conditions that may affect their profitability. Accordingly, we monitor certain key factors, changes to which we believe may provide early indications of conditions that may affect the level of risk in our lease and loan portfolio.

Key factors that we consider in underwriting prospective tenants and borrowers and in monitoring the performance of existing tenants and borrowers include the following:

•

the historical and prospective operating margins (measured by a tenant’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and facility rent) of each tenant or borrower and at each facility;

•

the ratio of our tenants’ and borrowers’ operating earnings both to facility rent and to facility rent plus other fixed costs, including debt costs;

•

trends in the source of our tenants’ or borrowers’ revenue, including the relative mix of Medicare, Medicaid/MediCal, managed care, commercial insurance, and private pay patients; and

•

the effect of evolving healthcare regulations on our tenants’ and borrowers’ profitability.

Certain business factors, in addition to those described above that directly affect our tenants and borrowers, will likely materially influence our future results of operations. These factors include:

•

trends in the cost and availability of capital, including market interest rates, that our prospective tenants may use for their real estate assets instead of financing their real estate assets through lease structures;

•

changes in healthcare regulations that may limit the opportunities for physicians to participate in the ownership of healthcare providers and healthcare real estate;

•

reductions in reimbursements from Medicare, state healthcare programs, and commercial insurance providers that may reduce our tenants’ profitability and our lease rates;

•

competition from other financing sources; and

•

the ability of our tenants and borrowers to access funds in the credit markets.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Refer to our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a discussion of our critical accounting policies, which include revenue recognition, investment in real estate, purchase price allocation, loans, losses from rent receivables, stock-based compensation, our fair value option election, and our accounting policy on consolidation. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, there were no material changes to these policies, except as noted in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to discontinued operations.

Overview

We are a self-advised real estate investment trust (“REIT”) focused on investing in and owning net-leased healthcare facilities across the United States and selectively in foreign jurisdictions. We have operated as a REIT since April 6, 2004, and accordingly, elected REIT status upon the filing of our calendar year 2004 federal income tax return. Medical Properties Trust, Inc. was incorporated under Maryland law on August 27, 2004, and MPT Operating Partnership, L.P. was formed under Delaware law on September 10, 2003. We conduct substantially all of our business through MPT Operating Partnership, L.P. We acquire and develop healthcare facilities and lease the facilities to healthcare operating companies under long-term net leases, which require the tenant to bear most of the costs associated with the property. We also make mortgage loans to healthcare operators collateralized by their real estate assets. In addition, we selectively make loans to certain of our operators through our taxable REIT subsidiaries, the proceeds of which are typically used for acquisitions and working capital. Finally, from time to time, we acquire a profits or other equity interest in our tenants that gives us a right to share in such tenant’s profits and losses.

At March 31, 2014, our portfolio consisted of 117 properties: 94 facilities (of the 108 facilities that we own, of which two are subject to long-term ground leases) are leased to 25 tenants, 14 are under development, and the remaining nine assets are in the form of mortgage loans to four operators. Our facilities consisted of 54 general acute care hospitals, 24 long-term acute care hospitals, 31 inpatient rehabilitation hospitals, two medical office buildings, and six wellness centers.

All of our investments are currently located in the United States and Europe.

The following is our revenue by operating type (dollar amounts in thousands):

Revenue by property type:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2014		% of Total			For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2013		% of Total
General Acute Care Hospitals	$	41,389		56.6	%	$	33,583		58.3	%
Long-term Acute Care Hospitals		13,757		18.8	%		13,467		23.4	%

Total revenue	$	73,089		100.0	%	$	57,613		100.0	%

We have 39 employees as of May 8, 2014. We believe that any foreseeable increase in the number of our employees will have only immaterial effects on our operations and general and administrative expenses. We believe that our relations with our employees are good. None of our employees are members of any labor union.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 Compared to March 31, 2013

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2014, was $7.3 million, compared to $26.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. This decline is due to the $20.5 million impairment charge taken on our Monroe loan in the 2014 first quarter. Funds from operations (“FFO”), after adjusting for certain items (as more fully described in Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures), was $42.7 million, or $0.26 per diluted share for the 2014 first quarter as compared to $34.8 million, or $0.25 per diluted share for the 2013 first quarter. This 23% increase in FFO is primarily due to the increase in revenue from acquisitions made in 2013.

A comparison of revenues for the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 is as follows, as adjusted in 2013 for discontinued operations (dollar amounts in thousands):


	2014		% of Total			2013		% of Total			Year over Year Change
Base rents	$	42,957		58.8	%	$	31,531		54.7	%		36.2	%
Straight-line rents		2,148		2.9	%		2,651		4.6	%		(19.0	%)
Income from direct financing leases		12,215		16.7	%		8,756		15.2	%		39.5	%
Interest from loans		15,541		21.3	%		14,532		25.2	%		6.9	%
Other		228		0.3	%		143		0.3	%		59.4	%

Total revenue	$	73,089		100.0	%	$	57,613		100.0	%		26.9	%

Our total revenue for the 2014 first quarter is up $15.5 million or 26.9% over the prior year. This increase is made up of the following:

•

Base rents – up $11.4 million over the prior year of which $0.9 million is from our annual escalation provisions in our leases, $10.6 million is from incremental revenue from acquisitions made in 2013, and $1.2 million is incremental revenue from development properties that were completed and put into service in 2013 and 2014. Approximately $1 million of base rents were recorded in the 2013 first quarter related to our Monroe property but none was recorded in the current year.

•

Straight-line rents – down ($0.5) million primarily due to the write-off of unbilled rent related to our Gilbert property – see Note 3 to Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

•

Income from direct financing leases – up $3.5 million over the prior year of which $0.1 million is from our annual escalation provisions in our leases and $3.4 million is from incremental revenue from acquisitions made in 2013.

•

Interest from loans – up $1.0 million over the prior year of which $0.2 million is from our annual escalation provisions in our loans and $0.7 million is from new loans made in 2013.

Real estate depreciation and amortization during the first quarter of 2014 increased to $13.7 million from $8.5 million in 2013, due to the incremental depreciation from the properties acquired in 2013 and the development properties completed in 2013 and the first quarter of 2014.

During the 2014 first quarter, we recorded a $20.5 million impairment charge on our Monroe loan – see Note 3 to Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

General and administrative expenses totaled $9.0 million for the 2014 first quarter, which is 12.3% of total revenues, down from 13.5% of total revenues in the prior year first quarter. The drop in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to our business model as we can generally increase our revenue significantly without increasing our head count and related expense at the same rate. On a dollar basis, general and administrative expenses were up $1.2 million from the prior year first quarter due to higher compensation expense and international administrative expenses, which are up as a result of the growth and expansion of our company since the 2013 first quarter.

Interest expense, for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, totaled $21.6 million and $15.4 million, respectively. This increase is related to higher average debt balances in the current year quarter associated with our 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes and the $150 million tack on offering to our 2012 Senior Unsecured Notes that closed after the 2013 first quarter. Our weighted average interest rates are slightly lower period over period – 5.9% for the first quarter 2014 and 6.1% for the first quarter of 2013. See Note 4 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 to this Form 10-Q for further information on our debt activities.

In addition to the items noted above, net income (loss) for the first quarter in both years was impacted by discontinued operations related to property disposals prior to 2014. See Note 8 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 to this Form 10-Q for further information.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Investors and analysts following the real estate industry utilize funds from operations, or FFO, as a supplemental performance measure. FFO, reflecting the assumption that real estate asset values rise or fall with market conditions, principally adjusts for the effects of GAAP depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, which assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. We compute FFO in accordance with the definition provided by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, which represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (losses) on sales of real estate and impairment charges on real estate assets, plus real estate depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

In addition to presenting FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, we also disclose normalized FFO, which adjusts FFO for items that relate to unanticipated or non-core events or activities or accounting changes that, if not noted, would make comparison to prior period results and market expectations less meaningful to investors and analysts.

We believe that the use of FFO, combined with the required GAAP presentations, improves the understanding of our operating results among investors and the use of normalized FFO makes comparisons of our operating results with prior periods and other companies more meaningful. While FFO and normalized FFO are relevant and widely used supplemental measures of operating and financial performance of REITs, they should not be viewed as a substitute measure of our operating performance since the measures do not reflect either depreciation and amortization costs or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, which can be significant economic costs that could materially impact our results of operations. FFO and normalized FFO should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) as indicators of our financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of our liquidity.

The following table presents a reconciliation of FFO to net income attributable to MPT common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 (dollar amounts in thousands except per share data):

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

2014 Cash Flow Activity

During the 2014 first quarter, we generated $18.3 million of cash flow from operating activities, primarily consisting of rent and interest from mortgage and other loans. We used these operating cash flows along with cash on-hand and $12.3 million of proceeds from our at-the-market equity offering program to fund our dividends of $35.8 million and certain investing activities including the additional funding of our development activities.

On March 11, 2014, we completed an underwritten public offering of 7.7 million shares of our common stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $100.2 million, after deducting estimated offering expenses. We used the net proceeds from this stock offering to pay down our revolving credit facility. Subsequently, we used proceeds from our revolving credit facility to finance the $115 million property acquisition on March 31, 2014.

2013 Cash Flow Activity

During the first three months of 2013, operating cash flows, which primarily consisted of rent and interest from mortgage and other loans, approximated $27.1 million, which with cash on-hand, were principally used to fund our dividends of $27.8 million and our investing activities including the funding of our development activities.

We completed an offering of 12.7 million shares of our common stock (including 1.7 million shares sold pursuant to the exercise in full of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares), resulting in net proceeds (after underwriting discount) of $172.9 million. Proceeds from this offering were used to pay down $125 million on our revolving credit facility, and the remaining proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, including potential future acquisitions.

Short-term Liquidity Requirements: As of March 31, 2014, we have less than $0.2 million in debt principal payments due in 2014 — see debt maturity schedule below. At May 8, 2014 and after the underwriters exercised their option to purchase an additional 1.2 million shares of common stock and the completion of our senior notes offering in April 2014 (see Note 5 and 11 of Item 1 to this Form 10-Q for details), our availability under our revolving credit facility plus cash on-hand approximated $550 million. In addition, we established an at-the-market equity offering program in January 2014 under which we may sell up to $250 million in shares (of which $12.5 million has been sold through May 8, 2014) which may be used for general corporate purposes as needed. We believe that the liquidity available to us, our current monthly cash receipts from rent and loan interest, and the availability under our at-the-market equity offering program is sufficient to fund our operations, debt and interest obligations, our firm commitments (including capital expenditures, if any, and expected funding requirements on our development projects), dividends in order to comply with REIT requirements, and our current investment strategies for the next twelve months.

Long-term Liquidity Requirements: As of March 31, 2014, we have less than $0.5 million in debt principal payments due between now and when our revolving credit facility is set to expire in October 2015. With our liquidity at May 8, 2014 of approximately $550 million along with our current monthly cash receipts from rent and loan interest and with the availability under our at-the-market equity offering program, we believe we have the liquidity available to us to fund our operations, debt and interest obligations, dividends in order to comply with REIT requirements, and firm commitments (including capital expenditures, if any, and expected funding requirements on our development projects) for the next several years. We also believe such liquidity is sufficient to cover our current investment goals.

However, if such liquidity is not enough or if we engage in acquisitions at levels significantly greater than our current plan, we may need additional capital, which we believe is currently available in the market such as the following:

•

expanding and extending our current revolving credit facility,

•

amending or entering into new bank term loans,

•

issuance of new debt securities, including senior unsecured notes,

•

sale of equity securities,

•

entering into joint venture arrangements, and/or

•

proceeds from strategic property sales,

However, there is no assurance that conditions will remain favorable for such possible transactions or that our plans will be successful.

As of March 31, 2014, principal payments due on our debt (which excludes the effects of any premium recorded) are as follows (in thousands):


2014	$	198
2015		155,283
2016		225,299
2017		320
2018		12,781
Thereafter		1,075,379

Total	$	1,469,260

May 17, 2012	June 14, 2012	July 12, 2012	$	0.20

We intend to pay to our stockholders, within the time periods prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”), all or substantially all of our annual taxable income, including taxable gains from the sale of real estate and recognized gains on the sale of securities. It is our policy to make sufficient cash distributions to stockholders in order for us to maintain our status as a REIT under the Code and to avoid corporate income and excise taxes on undistributed income. See Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 to this Form 10-Q for any restrictions placed on dividends by our existing credit facility.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. We seek to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in interest rates by matching the terms of new investments with new long-term fixed rate borrowings to the extent possible. We may or may not elect to use financial derivative instruments to hedge interest rate exposure. These decisions are principally based on our policy to match our variable rate investments with comparable borrowings, but are also based on the general trend in interest rates at the applicable dates and our perception of the future volatility of interest rates.

In addition, the value of our facilities will be subject to fluctuations based on changes in local and regional economic conditions and changes in the ability of our tenants to generate profits, all of which may affect our ability to refinance our debt if necessary. The changes in the value of our facilities would be impacted also by changes in “cap” rates, which is measured by the current base rent divided by the current market value of a facility.

Our primary exposure to market risks relates to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency. The following analyses present the sensitivity of the market value, earnings and cash flows of our significant financial instruments to hypothetical changes in interest rates and exchange rates as if these changes had occurred. The hypothetical changes chosen for these analyses reflect our view of changes that are reasonably possible over a one-year period. These forward looking disclosures are selective in nature and only address the potential impact from these hypothetical changes. They do not include other potential effects which could impact our business as a result of changes in market conditions. In addition, they do not include measures we may take to minimize our exposure such as entering into future interest rate swaps to hedge against interest rate increases on our variable rate debt.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

For fixed rate debt, interest rate changes affect the fair market value but do not impact net income to common stockholders or cash flows. Conversely, for floating rate debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the fair market value but do impact net income to common stockholders and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. At March 31, 2014, our outstanding debt totaled $1.5 billion, which consisted of fixed-rate debt of $1.2 billion (including $125.0 million of floating debt swapped to fixed) and variable rate debt of $255.0 million. If market interest rates increase by one percentage point, the fair value of our fixed rate debt at March 31, 2014 would decrease by $11.5 million. Changes in the fair value of our fixed rate debt will not have any impact on us unless we decided to repurchase the debt in the open market.

If market rates of interest on our variable rate debt increase by 1%, the increase in annual interest expense on our variable rate debt would decrease future earnings and cash flows by $2.6 million per year. If market rates of interest on our variable rate debt decrease by 1%, the decrease in interest expense on our variable rate debt would increase future earnings and cash flows by $2.6 million per year. This assumes that the average amount outstanding under our variable rate debt for a year is $255.0 million, the balance of such variable rate debt at March 31, 2014.

Foreign Currency Sensitivity

With our acquisition of the properties in Germany in 2013, we are subject to fluctuations in U.S. and Euro currency exchange rates that may, from time to time, affect our financial condition and results of operations. Increases or decreases in the value of the Euro relative to the US dollar may impact the amount of net income we report. Based solely on operating results for the 2014 quarter and on an annualized basis, if the Euro exchange rate were to change by 1%, our net income would change by $0.1 million, respectively.

We view our net investment in foreign subsidiaries that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar as long-term. As a result, we have not entered into any type of derivative to hedge our net investment. However, we have entered into Euro denominated debt, which works as a natural hedge for a significant portion of such investment.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

We have adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b), under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, we have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file with the SEC.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
