Fun facts about CareTrust REIT, Inc.

Quirks, history, and lore behind CTRE — the kind of stuff that makes a stock memorable.

1
The Basics
U.S. real estate investment trust · listed on Nasdaq · headquartered in Southern California · focused entirely on healthcare properties.
2
The Numbers
Owns roughly 200+ healthcare facilities across the country, with a market cap in the low billions — small enough to fly under most radars, big enough to matter.
3
The History
Spun off from another healthcare REIT around 2014, it hit the ground running by inheriting a portfolio of skilled nursing and senior housing properties on day one.
4
The Secret
Its bread and butter is triple-net leases — meaning tenants pay taxes, insurance, and maintenance, so this company basically collects rent and minds its business.
5
The Lore
It's laser-focused on post-acute care — the places people go after a hospital stay — betting that an aging Baby Boomer population makes that a very long runway.
6
The Giveaway
The name blends caregiving with trust — literally — and its ticker is a tidy four-letter shorthand for a REIT that thinks skilled nursing facilities are the future of real estate.

What's Driving CTRE's Business? Latest 10-Q Breakdown

AI-extracted from CareTrust REIT, Inc.'s 10-Q filed 2026-05-07 — Q1 2026 (quarter ended March 31, 2026). Every figure is machine-verified against the filing text on SEC EDGAR.

CareTrust REIT reported Q1 2026 net income of $80.2M, up 22% YoY, driven by $114.2M rental income (+59% YoY) from acquisitions and SHOP platform expansion.

Biggest Revenue Drivers

Total revenue: $142.8M+48% YoY

Rental income$114.2M+59% YoY

Increase due to real estate investments made after December 31, 2024, rental rate increases for existing tenants, and transfers to new operators.

Resident fees and services$3.9M

Generated from three senior housing communities acquired under SHOP platform in December 2025.

Interest income from financing receivable$2.8M-1% YoY

Interest on sale-leaseback transaction financing receivable recorded on a net present value basis.

Largest Expense Items

Depreciation and amortization$29.4M+65% YoY

Increase from acquisitions and capital improvements made after December 31, 2024, partially offset by dispositions.

General and administrative$14.3M+59% YoY

Increase in cash and incentive compensation reflecting organizational growth, partially offset by lower share-based compensation amortization.

Interest expense$11.2M+69% YoY

Increase primarily due to new $500M Term Loan Facility established May 2025, partially offset by reduced revolving facility borrowings.

Senior housing operating expenses$3.1M

Operating costs of three senior housing communities acquired under SHOP platform in December 2025.

Margins: Gross operating margin (revenues less depreciation and operating expenses) improved year-over-year as rental income growth significantly outpaced depreciation and operating expense increases.

AI Insight: CTRE Financial Trends

CareTrust REIT's revenue has more than doubled in two years — from $69M in Q2 2024 to $143M in Q1 2026 — while equity nearly tripled, signaling aggressive but equity-funded growth.

• Revenue surged from $69M in Q2 2024 to $143M in Q1 2026, a ~107% increase over seven quarters.

• Equity expanded from $1,944M in Q2 2024 to $4,132M in Q1 2026, suggesting growth is primarily equity-financed rather than leverage-driven.

• Operating cash flow rose from $53M in Q2 2024 to $121M in Q4 2025, though it dipped to $90M in Q1 2026.

• Total debt jumped from $397M in Q4 2024 to $1,155M in Q2 2025 before settling at $895M in Q1 2026, reflecting episodic acquisition financing.

⚠ Net income fell from $111M in Q4 2025 to $80M in Q1 2026 — sharpest sequential decline in the dataset; worth monitoring for sustainability.

⚠ Debt spiked to $1,155M in Q2 2025 then retreated to $895M; further debt drawdowns tied to acquisitions could pressure the balance sheet.

⚠ Operating cash flow dipped to $90M in Q1 2026 from $121M in Q4 2025 — first sequential OCF decline in three quarters.

AI Insight: CTRE Ratio Trends

CareTrust REIT's profitability has surged since Q2 2024, with NPM climbing from 15.6% to 82.5% at peak, though Q1 2026 shows a sequential pullback from Q4 2025's outsized quarter.

• Net profit margin expanded dramatically from 15.6% in Q2 2024 to 82.5% in Q4 2025, reflecting strong earnings momentum over six quarters.

• ROE improved from 2.2% in Q2 2024 to 11.0% in Q4 2025, though Q1 2026 pulled back to 7.8%.

• Leverage (D/E) declined meaningfully from 0.35 in Q2 2024 to 0.14 in Q4 2024, stabilizing at 0.22 through Q1 2026.

• Q1 2026 operating margin of 57.3% and NPM of 56.2% represent a sharp sequential drop from Q4 2025's 84.7% and 82.5%.

⚠ Q4 2025 margins appear anomalously high; if Q1 2026 levels (~57%) represent the new baseline, growth expectations may need recalibration.

⚠ D/E ticked back up to 0.35 in Q2 2025 before settling at 0.22 — monitor whether leverage re-escalates with further investment activity.

⚠ ROIC dropped to 6.5% in Q1 2026 from 9.3% in Q4 2025 — first quarter-over-quarter decline since data began reporting this metric.
