Cuộc họp công bố kết quả kinh doanh quý 3/2026 của Chiron Real Estate (XRN): Mở rộng nhà ở cho người cao tuổi và bán tài sản

Những điểm chính

• Chiron Real Estate ghi nhận FFO theo chuẩn NAREIT quý 3/2026 đạt 0,50 USD trên mỗi cổ phiếu và đơn vị quỹ, cùng FFO cốt lõi đạt 0,75 USD trên mỗi cổ phiếu và đơn vị quỹ.
• NOI tiền mặt cùng cửa hàng của mảng Y tế Ngoại trú tăng 1,6% so với cùng kỳ năm trước, phù hợp với kỳ vọng được công ty đặt ra vào đầu năm 2026.
• Chiron đã hoàn tất các khoản đầu tư độc quyền vào nhà ở cho người cao tuổi trị giá hơn 430 triệu USD. Sau thương vụ mua lại The Pinnacle vào tháng 10, danh mục đầu tư của công ty hiện bao gồm 3 khu dân cư và 467 căn hộ.
• Công ty đang ưu tiên thoái vốn danh mục y tế ngoại trú hiện hữu. Ban lãnh đạo cho biết mức độ quan tâm của thị trường vẫn rất khả quan, dù lợi suất trái phiếu kho bạc tăng cao đã làm giảm định giá bất động sản y tế khoảng 25 đến 50 điểm cơ bản.
• The Landing đạt tỷ lệ lấp đầy bình quân 95,1% trong quý 3, trong khi các bất động sản đang trong giai đoạn cho thuê là The Riviera và The Pinnacle ghi nhận tỷ lệ lấp đầy lần lượt là 25,6% và 31%.
• Thanh khoản vào cuối quý bao gồm 231 triệu USD hạn mức tín dụng chưa sử dụng. Tỷ lệ đòn bẩy theo hợp đồng tín dụng là 41%, trong khi tỷ lệ nợ ròng trên EBITDA điều chỉnh là 7,1 lần.

Dữ liệu tài chính cốt lõi

Kết quả kinh doanh và hoạt động

Chiron tiếp tục quá trình chuyển dịch từ bất động sản y tế ngoại trú sang nhà ở cho người cao tuổi. Ban lãnh đạo xác định việc bán danh mục y tế ngoại trú hiện hữu là ưu tiên hàng đầu trong ngắn hạn và cho biết quá trình này đang tiếp tục được đẩy mạnh. Công ty đã thuê đơn vị môi giới nhưng chưa công bố cấu trúc giao dịch, định giá hay ngày hoàn tất.

The Landing tại Alexandria, Virginia tiếp tục là tài sản ổn định trong danh mục đầu tư, với tỷ lệ lấp đầy bình quân quý 3 đạt 95,1%. Ban lãnh đạo cho rằng kết quả này đến từ chiến lược định giá kỷ luật, giữ chân cư dân và kiểm soát chi phí.

The Riviera đạt tỷ lệ lấp đầy bình quân 25,6%. Lượng khách hàng tiềm năng mới tăng 20% so với quý 2, trong khi số lượt tham quan ban đầu của khách hàng tiềm năng tăng 14%. Ban lãnh đạo nhấn mạnh rằng tiến trình cho thuê không diễn ra theo đường thẳng và công ty đang tập trung vào việc tạo khách hàng tiềm năng, chuyển đổi, mức độ hài lòng của cư dân và chất lượng doanh thu thay vì kết quả từng tháng riêng lẻ.

Chiron đã hoàn tất thương vụ mua lại The Pinnacle vào tháng 10. Khu dân cư mới xây dựng gồm 175 căn tại North Bethesda này cung cấp các dịch vụ sinh hoạt độc lập, hỗ trợ sinh hoạt và chăm sóc suy giảm trí nhớ. Dự án đã đón những cư dân đầu tiên vào tháng 6 và kết thúc quý 3 với tỷ lệ lấp đầy 31%.

Chiến lược đầu tư hướng tới các khu dân cư hiện đại, tự chi trả tại những thị trường có khả năng duy trì quyền định giá và tỷ lệ lấp đầy bền vững. Chiron ưu tiên các bất động sản cung cấp dịch vụ chăm sóc liên tục và những đơn vị vận hành có bề dày kinh nghiệm tại thị trường địa lý liên quan.

Triển vọng từ ban lãnh đạo

Ban lãnh đạo kỳ vọng The Riviera sẽ đạt lợi suất trên chi phí đầu tư (yield on cost) trên 7% trong nửa cuối năm 2028. The Pinnacle được dự kiến sẽ mang lại lợi suất trên chi phí đầu tư khi đi vào ổn định trên 7% vào năm 2029.

Chiron dự định tái đầu tư nguồn vốn từ các đợt bán bất động sản y tế ngoại trú vào phân khúc nhà ở cho người cao tuổi. Ban lãnh đạo cho biết năng lực mua lại hiện tại còn khiêm tốn trước khi có thêm các đợt bán tài sản, đồng thời nhận định danh mục y tế ngoại trú tương đương khoảng 1,5 tỷ USD nguồn vốn tiềm năng để tái phân bổ.

Về lâu dài, công ty ưu tiên cấu trúc đối tác vận hành tập trung. Matthew Whitlock cho biết nếu Chiron đạt quy mô 50 đến 60 tòa nhà trong vài năm tới, ông hy vọng sẽ hợp tác với khoảng 5 đơn vị vận hành thay vì phụ thuộc vào nhiều mối quan hệ đơn lẻ.

Ban lãnh đạo cũng tái khẳng định định hướng vận hành với mức đòn bẩy tổng thể thấp hơn, dù chưa đưa ra mục tiêu hoặc lộ trình cụ thể.

Rủi ro và các yếu tố cần theo dõi

• Theo ban lãnh đạo, lợi suất trái phiếu kho bạc tăng cao đã làm giảm định giá bất động sản y tế ngoại trú ước tính khoảng 25 đến 50 điểm cơ bản.
• Thời điểm, định giá và cấu trúc của thương vụ thoái vốn danh mục y tế ngoại trú vẫn chưa chắc chắn.
• Việc bán nhanh danh mục đầu tư có thể khiến lợi nhuận sụt giảm tạm thời trước khi nguồn tiền thu về được tái phân bổ. Ban lãnh đạo thừa nhận khả năng xảy ra kịch bản này nhưng nhận thấy giá trị từ tốc độ thực thi.
• The Riviera và The Pinnacle vẫn đang trong giai đoạn cho thuê, khiến tiến trình tăng tỷ lệ lấp đầy và lợi nhuận có thể không đồng đều. Chiron đang áp dụng các chính sách ưu đãi và chiết khấu để gia tăng tỷ lệ lấp đầy, đồng thời dự kiến sẽ giảm bớt các chính sách này khi tỷ lệ lấp đầy tăng lên.
• Tỷ lệ nợ ròng trên EBITDA điều chỉnh có thể biến động trong khi The Riviera và The Pinnacle tiến dần tới giai đoạn ổn định.
• Ban lãnh đạo mô tả phân khúc nhà ở cho người cao tuổi là thị trường của bên bán và cho biết chỉ khoảng 10% trong số xấp xỉ 10 cơ hội được xem xét mỗi tháng đáp ứng các tiêu chí mua lại của Chiron.

Điểm nhấn phiên hỏi đáp với các nhà phân tích

Chiến lược bán tài sản y tế ngoại trú: Ban lãnh đạo thiên về hướng hành động tương đối nhanh chóng hơn là tối đa hóa từng đồng tăng thêm thông qua nhiều thương vụ bán lẻ từng tài sản. Công ty ước tính chênh lệch giữa hai cách tiếp cận này có thể chỉ là vài trăm điểm cơ bản thay vì 10%.

Lợi nhuận mua lại mảng nhà ở cho người cao tuổi: Ban lãnh đạo nhận định các khoản đầu tư y tế ngoại trú mang lại IRR không dùng đòn bẩy ở mức một chữ số cao, so với mức hai chữ số thấp của mảng nhà ở cho người cao tuổi. Theo quan điểm của ban lãnh đạo, mức chênh lệch lợi nhuận này củng cố cho sự chuyển dịch chiến lược.

Lộ trình cho thuê: Ban lãnh đạo cho biết sự khác biệt giữa The Riviera và The Pinnacle không nên được đánh giá chỉ qua một tháng hay một quý đơn lẻ. Cả hai bất động sản đều ghi nhận lượng khách hàng tiềm năng và hoạt động tham quan thực chất tăng trưởng mạnh mẽ, trong khi các chính sách ưu đãi đang được áp dụng có chọn lọc để ưu tiên thúc đẩy tỷ lệ lấp đầy.

Danh mục cơ hội mua lại: Chiron đang xem xét khoảng 10 cơ hội về nhà ở cho người cao tuổi mỗi tháng nhưng dự kiến chỉ khoảng 10% đáp ứng được các tiêu chí đề ra. Công ty cũng đang tích cực đàm phán về các cơ hội ngoài thị trường công khai, từ các tài sản đơn lẻ cho đến danh mục đầu tư.

Cung và cầu: Ban lãnh đạo viện dẫn tỷ lệ lấp đầy nhà ở cho người cao tuổi trên toàn quốc đạt trên 90%, nguồn cung dự án mới hạn chế và khoảng 10.000 người bước sang tuổi 80 mỗi ngày làm cơ sở củng cố cho luận điểm đầu tư của mình. Công ty kỳ vọng nhu cầu sẽ gia tăng mạnh mẽ khi ngày càng nhiều người thuộc thế hệ bùng nổ dân số (baby boomer) bước vào độ tuổi 80.

Hoạt động cho thuê Y tế Ngoại trú: Ban lãnh đạo cho biết hiện chưa ghi nhận trường hợp trả mặt bằng lớn nào. Tỷ lệ giữ chân khách thuê theo quý đạt khoảng 70%, với kỳ vọng tỷ lệ này sẽ duy trì quanh mức đó và có tiềm năng tăng trưởng hơn nữa.

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Chiron Real Estate, Inc. Third Quarter 2026 Earnings Conference Call. This call is being recorded on Thursday, November 5, 2026. I would now like to turn the conference over to Jamie Barber, General Counsel. Please go ahead.

Jamie Barber

Good morning, everyone, and welcome to Chiron Real Estate's Third Quarter 2026 Earnings Conference Call. My name is Jamie Barber, and I'm Chiron Real Estate's General Counsel. On the call today are Mark Decker, Jr., Chief Executive Officer; Matthew Whitlock, Chief Investment Officer; Bobby Zeiler, Chief Development Officer and Head of Seniors Housing; and Bob Kiernan, Chief Financial Officer.

Statements or comments made on this conference call may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include, but are not necessarily limited to, financial projections or other statements of the company's plans, objectives, expectations or intentions. These matters involve certain risks and uncertainties. The company's actual results may differ significantly from those projected or suggested from any forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, which are discussed in detail in our SEC filings.

Additionally, on this call, the company may refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures. You can find a tabular reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most currently comparable GAAP numbers in the company's earnings release and in filings with the SEC. Additional information may be found on the Investor Relations page of the company's website at www.chironre.com. I would now like to turn the call over to Mark.

Mark Decker

Thank you, Jamie, and good morning. Chiron has made incredible progress this year. We've now closed over $430 million of proprietary seniors housing investments and built a fantastic team. In the third quarter, we continued to move from developing our strategy to execution. That transition is supported by a management team with the investment, operating and financial experience necessary to build a differentiated health care real estate platform.

You'll hear from each of Bob, Matthew and Bobby in a few minutes regarding the ways we've advanced our strategy. Before that, I want to take a moment to speak to what our team views as our highest priority, the disposition of our legacy outpatient medical portfolio. As we discussed during last quarter's earnings call, we've engaged a broker and are in the process of finding the optimal solution for this portfolio. We continue to advance that process and are encouraged by the level of interest we've received.

Because the process is ongoing, we can't provide incremental detail regarding potential counterparty structure, valuation or timing. We continue to make progress on the repositioning of our business, and we'll provide an update as soon as we have something definitive to share. Bob, could you please take us through the quarter?

Robert Kiernan

Thanks, Mark. During the third quarter, NAREIT-defined FFO per share and unit was $0.50, and our core FFO was $0.75 per share and unit. Outpatient Medical same-store cash NOI increased 1.6% on a year-over-year basis, consistent with the expectations we established at the beginning of the year. Third quarter cash G&A of $5.3 million was impacted by $1.2 million of severance and transition costs attributable to changes to our senior leadership team. Absent these changes, cash G&A would have totaled $4.1 million.

Noncash stock compensation also included $800,000 of accelerated vesting associated with these changes. We ended the quarter with $231 million in unutilized borrowing capacity under the credit facility and a leverage ratio of 41% as defined by our credit agreement. Net debt to adjusted EBITDA was 7.1x for the quarter. As a reminder, net debt to EBITDA will fluctuate in the near term as The Riviera and The Pinnacle progress through lease-up and stabilization. Bobby, could you please provide an operating update?

Robert Zeiller

Thanks, Bob. I'll begin with The Landing in Alexandria, Virginia, where third quarter occupancy averaged 95.1%. The Landing serves as a great example of why we're so excited about the foundation of our senior housing portfolio. It's well occupied. The real estate is highly relevant, and we've been able to drive financial performance through disciplined pricing, resident retention and expense management.

At The Riviera, our independent living community adjacent to The Landing, quarterly occupancy averaged 25.6%. Progress has been steady, but we are mindful of the fact that lease-up is rarely linear. As a result, we won't put too much emphasis on any single month. Rather, we're focused on the underlying indicators that support a durable growth profile that will be lead generation, move-in conversions, resident satisfaction and the quality of the revenue we are creating. We are seeing very encouraging progress on those measures. Third quarter lead generation, for example, increased 20% from the second quarter, while initial prospect tours increased a healthy 14%. As a reminder, we expect The Riviera to yield on -- to generate a yield on cost of greater than 7% during the second half of 2028.

We're also excited to have completed the acquisition of The Pinnacle in October. The Pinnacle is a newly constructed 175-home community in North Bethesda that is located across the street from Federal Realty's Pike & Rose mixed-use development. This investment brings our senior housing portfolio to 3 communities and 467 total homes. Our conviction in The Pinnacle begins with the quality of the underlying real estate. It is a brand-new institutional scale community offering independent, assisted living and memory care in one of the most attractive submarkets in the Washington region.

The community welcomed its first residents in June and ended the third quarter at 31% occupied. As with The Riviera, The Pinnacle's current earnings do not reflect the community's stabilized potential. Our focus is on converting the quality of the real estate and the depth of the local market into durable occupancy and NOI growth. We expect The Pinnacle to generate stabilized yield on cost greater than 7% in 2029. Overall, we remain extremely confident in the quality of our portfolio. Our job is to now demonstrate that quality through consistent operating execution. Matthew, could you please discuss how we're approaching the investment pipeline?

Matthew Whitlock

Absolutely, and I'm happy to. Thank you, Bobby. Having been here only a short while, I couldn't be more excited for our opportunity to build a differentiated seniors housing portfolio that's positioned to meet the demands of today as well as those of tomorrow. I won't use my time today to reemphasize the incredible supply-demand imbalance in our seniors housing created by the wave of baby boomers reaching their 80th birthdays.

Rather, I'd like to talk a little bit about what we see as relevant real estate and what we are targeting within the broader seniors housing marketplace and the opportunities to invest in them. Out of the 1.9 million or so seniors housing units in the United States, we believe over half of them will not satisfy the demands placed on them by the incoming seniors population. Our team is focused on investment opportunities that will satisfy these demands. More specifically, we're pursuing modern private pay communities, delivering outstanding care in markets capable of supporting pricing power and long-term occupancy.

Our best investments will be ones where the real estate is relevant, the operator is aligned, and we can identify multiple paths to long-term value creation. These paths can include occupancy gains, margin expansion, renovation or modernization and the economies of scale gained through geographic concentration. We've developed a meaningful pipeline of potential investments that meet these criteria. It is a curated opportunity set designed around our investment thesis and objective of assembling a portfolio of relevant, high-demanded communities.

We do not feel compelled to bid on assets that do not fit this criteria, and the majority of our pipeline consists of assets not currently marketed for sale in the larger transaction marketplace. We evaluate each opportunity not only against our investment criteria, but also in light of our available liquidity and the expected sequencing of our broader capital recycling strategy. We are excited by the macroeconomics of seniors housing continuing to support our thesis and perhaps even more so, the opportunities we have and will identify. We are equally excited by the prospect of converting our outpatient medical portfolio into meaningful investment capacity to pursue these opportunities. Mark, I'll turn it back to you.

Mark Decker

Thanks, Matthew. As we've discussed throughout the year, Chiron is in the middle of a significant transition. Our progress will ultimately be measured by execution and long-term value creation. In the near term, we're focused on realizing value from our outpatient medical properties and investing capital with discipline into seniors housing. Our team is aligned around these priorities, and we look forward to reporting on our progress along the way. Operator, please open the line for questions.

Operator

And your first question comes from the line of Juan Sanabria with BMO Capital Markets.

Phần hỏi đáp

Juan Sanabria

Recognizing it's a fluid situation on the MOB dispositions, hoping you could talk a little bit about how the pricing environment is maybe changing given the interest rate volatility we've seen and kind of what sort of time frame is a reasonable expectation for when a process could be completed in your minds? What would mean success for the team?

Mark Decker

Thanks, Juan. Yes, great question. It's -- pricing is definitely eroded in light of the treasury moves. And so I would say it's probably 25 to 50 basis points for medical and probably more specifically our portfolio. And from a timing perspective, really hard to talk about timing. I mean, I'd love to have a good update by the time we're on our next call.

Juan Sanabria

Fair enough. And then just on the eventual redeployment of those proceeds in that capital. Matthew, you mentioned over half of the stock won't meet the boomer demand. So I guess, what do you think is maybe obsolete product? And what is kind of the most appealing or appropriate unit mix or asset type or price point that you think is going to be relevant with the seniors? And how do you align the operators more specifically to have that alignment with Chiron shareholders?

Matthew Whitlock

Yes, those great questions. So generally, we define relevance from a couple of different perspectives. #1, the location of the asset within a specific MSA, the architecture and design of the buildings, and that includes both the amenitized space, things like the dining room, the art and craft room, parts of the public areas that are relevant to the incoming baby boomer population. And then we also look at the architecture, design and layout as well as the unit mix of the individual residential units. So currently, there is a demand for larger units that are more amenitized than that type of product that was typically built 10 to 15 years ago.

So the 1.9 million units nationwide in seniors housing, about half of them were built before 2012. Generally speaking, most of the product built before 2012 was designed to meet the demand criteria of the silent generation and the greatest generation. The incoming baby boomers are the first generation in American history to really force their demands on products built for them. So we're looking for units and communities that will appeal to the baby boomer generation.

How we develop alignment of interest with our operators is really a question of geographic concentration and the experience of our operators within the targeted MSAs. So for example, if we were operator aligned in the Pacific Northwest and an opportunity was brought to us, say, east of the Mississippi, just by way of example, we would probably not pursue that acquisition with our geographically focused operator in the Pacific Northwest, but would pursue an operator alignment who had more experience within the MSAs where that targeted acquisition is.

Mark Decker

That answer your question?

Operator

Your next question comes from the line of Wes Golladay with Baird.

Wesley Golladay

Can you talk about the -- I guess there was a big divergence in pace between The Riviera and The Pinnacle. And I know we don't want to look too much into 1 quarter, but is there anything that, I guess, is going really well at The Pinnacle and anything that you would change at The Riviera? Was the price too high, too low? Just a little more color on that.

Mark Decker

Bobby, you can speak to that.

Robert Zeiller

Yes, sure, Wes. Thank you very much. So I think my experience and lease-ups, the lease-ups that I've been involved in, which has been dozens -- there is a nonlinear process to lease up. There are ups and downs with each community as they go for varying factors, both around the community, it could be factors that are differentiated by location, seasonality, et cetera. We have seen both highs and lows in months, which is why we don't focus particularly on months.

As an example, we had the largest move-in month of my career at The Pinnacle in August. There is really no correlation to that other than just an aberration. So we look at the process as a process that will take a couple of years. We look at the fundamentals of lead generation of initial and subsequent tours and both at The Pinnacle and at The Riviera and frankly, at The Landing as well, those fundamental indicators are all very strong. In fact, we had great growth in those numbers at both The Riviera and The Pinnacle. So we're very confident in the long haul that these will be well-performing assets. Their locations, the markets around them, the supply-demand dynamics in each of these markets is exceptional. So we believe both will happen. There's going to probably be a high at The Riviera and a low at The Pinnacle in 1 month. And I think at the end of the day, our focus is on the long term.

Operator

Your next question comes from the line of Austin Wurschmidt with KeyBanc Capital Markets.

Austin Wurschmidt

Just going back to the lease-up. Can you discuss how we should think about flow-through at The Riviera and The Pinnacle as occupancy continues to ramp and whether you are offering concessions today and at what occupancy point maybe we start to see those burn off a bit?

Robert Zeiller

Yes, sure. So we do invest in occupancy. And by that, I mean, we do offer incentives or concessions. We do use the levers to ramp those down over time. So the ideal scenario is that as the occupancy grows, we can ramp those down, so they burn off concurrently. We also use them as a near-term kind of urgency incentive, for example, in areas of the month or areas of the year that are generally slower, we will offer some urgency incentives. Our view on those is that we want to grow occupancy first and foremost. And so we do that with real-time input from the sales teams and the manager.

Austin Wurschmidt

That's helpful. And then just going back a little bit to how you're thinking about shaping the portfolio on the senior housing side. Given your size range of available proceeds from OM sales, is there a target number of operators you're focused on aligning with? And is that sort of by either regional focus or acuity? Just curious how you think about that.

Matthew Whitlock

Yes. This is Matthew. I'll take that question. So ultimately, we'd like to have a lower number of operators that are truly aligned with our investment pursuits as opposed to a lot of one-offs. So where we look in specific geographic regions and where we look for investment opportunities, a lot of thought process goes into who our operating partner would be. And we diligence pretty significantly the experience of that operator within a specific geographic footprint and whether or not we've got proper alignment.

But generally speaking, when we look back on this in a couple of years, and we've got 50 or 60 buildings, it would be my hope that we have 5 operators as opposed to 50. So we would like to have alignment with multiple properties and a lower number of operators. And then just to put a little more color on that, geographic concentration is very important to us. We think that there are boundaries upon which an operating partner may lose efficiency as it relates to our portfolio. So we're very mindful of that. Bob, anything you might want to add?

Robert Kiernan

No, I think that's exactly right.

Operator

And your next question comes from the line of Rob Simone with Compass Point.

Rob Simone

Just kind of switching over to the senior side or the SHOP side for a second. I was wondering if you could just kind of talk about like maybe the velocity or the volume of transactions that are kind of like out there or coming across your desk and kind of like how you filter that, right? So like if you were to kind of look at x dollars per quarter or per month, how much of that actually qualifies as within your parameters, how much do you pass on, how much do you bid on? And kind of like just what's the run rate that you're underwriting quarter-to-quarter, I guess?

Matthew Whitlock

Yes, I'll take that. So we're looking at a tremendous amount of opportunities across the entire landscape for seniors housing. As I mentioned in our opening comments, a lot of those opportunities don't fit our buy box from a relevance perspective. It would not surprise you to suggest that the current market is absolutely a seller's market. There's been a tremendous amount of acquisition activity over the last 2 years. We have seen that transaction activity slow somewhat.

But in answer to your question, of the 10 or so opportunities per month that we're seeing, we're going to be interested in probably 10% of those. A lot of the opportunities are end of fund life dispositions, nonrelevant real estate dispositions, things that really wouldn't attract us or fit into our buy box. I will tell you, though, that we're in active discussions on off-market transactions ranging from single asset transactions to multiple portfolios. And there's a tremendous amount of activity in the off-market side of the investment landscape.

Mark Decker

Yes. The only thing I'd add is just to say we have a lot more opportunities than and capital that we think makes sense.

Operator

Your next question comes from the line of Rich Anderson with Cantor Fitzgerald.

Richard Anderson

I'm happy to be here on my first Chiron call. So Mark, I know you're not going to talk about the MOB sale process and specifics. But is there a short-term outcome where you sell a big chunk of it all at once or all of it all at once and then you have this dip in sort of the earnings profile of the company and then a bounce back up once you deploy it. Is that -- could there be sort of an EKG type of thing that happens to earnings over the next couple of years? Is that a reasonable way to think about the transformational process of the company?

Mark Decker

An earnings heart attack. I could read the headline now from you, Richard. Good to have you on. Yes, that is possible. I think as we've talked about with investors on prior calls, there's sort of the absolute last dollar value maximization might be selling 180 buildings to 180 different buyers. The best capital markets answer is probably don't go for every last dollar, but move quickly. And I would say we're biased towards that. And I don't think that those 2 outcomes are 10% apart. They're probably a couple of hundred basis points apart. But we definitely believe there is value in speed. So yes, that's possible, for sure.

Richard Anderson

Okay. And then an interesting observation around the market for senior housing units, half of which are in your bread basket or could be. But the baby boomers are just now turning 80, right? And if average first year in a senior housing home is 83, isn't it really 10 years from now or 5 years from now where you really start to see that demand start to pick up from that generation because the range of baby I just Googled the 62 to 80 right now. Anyone who's 62 is probably not moving in the next 20 years. But I'm just curious about how you view the cadence of demand for that business and how it aligns with what you're doing as a company?

Matthew Whitlock

Yes. So I'll take that. So demand for the units is part of it, but the supply imbalance is a very significant portion of it. Largely, there's been -- I would tell you that there's an incredibly low new development. So the supply of new product has really been constrained, and that's a function of construction debt in the marketplace, yield on cost for a developer and the risk associated with building new. Now I don't think that's forever, but it certainly has been for the last 3 or 4 years, a really curtailed development pipeline.

The other part of that is while this is the leading edge of the baby boomers, it's important to realize that there's not a gap. The tail end of the silent generation is still coming. It's an incredibly wealthy demographic subset. And as you Google, there's 10,000 people turning 80 every single day. So while the baby boomer is a massive wave of new prospective residents, the tailwind of the silent generation is still coming. So we feel that overall, the national occupancy is above 90%. It's above that, which it was prior to COVID. So there's never-ending demand for seniors housing product. There's a very limited supply of new product coming on. So we do feel very strongly that there's current demand and that demand will only grow as the baby boomer wave moves into their 80s.

Richard Anderson

Great color there. Just real quick, I like the 5 operator focus for 50 buildings. It's nice, easy, 5 for 50. But how much more can you get out of the Greystone-Silverstone arrangement in your mind?

Matthew Whitlock

So they're certainly an operating partner of ours, and we have a specific geographic focus with Greystone here in Metro D.C. So they are absolutely a candidate for us as we look at other opportunities in this geographic region. I would also mention that they're not the only operating partner that we could align with. But right now, we have full confidence in their ability to lease up the assets that we've acquired.

Operator

Your next question comes from the line of Dave Rogers with Raymond James.

David Rodgers

I wanted to ask about acuity. In terms of the lease-up of the existing assets, are you seeing anything interesting, different unique with regards to the lease-up acuity levels? And then maybe the same question with respect to where you're thinking about for acquisitions. Do you have targeted acuity levels that you'd like to kind of hit over time? Any additional thoughts there would be helpful.

Robert Zeiller

Sure. Let me -- this is Bobby. Let me take that for a second, and Matthew can add. I think what we've seen, one of the key visions of Chiron is that we are investing in full continuum assets that have both independent, assisted and memory care, which gives us an opportunity to seek out both early baby boomers, those that are younger and also be able to respond to those with additional care needs. One of the things and the phenomenon that we've seen and we like and really support our communities is that as care needs change, they matriculate in the community. So this is an age-in-place model.

And I think we see that in terms of the lease-up of the communities, one of the reasons why we are so bullish on both The Pinnacle and The Riviera is that it is an IL community that brings people in earlier, healthier and then they can matriculate to additional care when they need it. We have seen a little longer lead cycle and timing to bring independent living residents in. It's more of an elective decision. On the assisted living and memory care side, it tends to be a little shorter and more needs-based. But we think having full continuum assets that have all of those care levels gives us the opportunity to respond to all the different needs in senior housing.

Matthew Whitlock

Yes, I think that's exactly right, Bobby. And what I would add is that baby boomers in the tail end of a silent generation are looking to go to a place to live rather than going to a place to die. And so their research into what community they want to move into has a lot to do with the programmable space in the community, the size and layout of their residential unit. And as Bobby said, their ability to receive care as they age in place. So in terms of acquisition criteria, we are not looking at -- very rarely do we look at a single level of care opportunity, and we're much more focused on a continuum of care. And in a perfect world, we can present an opportunity for a prospective resident to move in an independent living and handle their needs all the way through the end of life.

David Rodgers

Great. Maybe a follow-up on your comments about development and not enough assets out there. You do have a Chief Development Officer and a parcel of land. Any updates on kind of what you're thinking there is, understanding that the transition here is early, but just kind of curious if you're getting more comfortable with moving forward.

Robert Zeiller

Yes. So we had an opportunity to acquire a very strategic piece of land, which we did. We've had some very interesting and exciting conversations about that piece of land. And I think we're not in a position to kind of go into full details, but certainly will soon, but it's an interesting opportunity for us to continue to build our portfolio.

David Rodgers

Last question for me. Maybe for Mark and Bob together. I wanted to think about the transition away from OM and into SHOP. And I guess I'm curious about the balance sheet, right, with the preferred leverage kind of approaching 10x and you're switching out of a 60% margin business into a 25% margin business that grows faster. So how are the banks, how are the lenders kind of thinking about what that transition needs to look like as you sell OM, how much do you have to put into the leverage component of the company to make sure that everybody is happy on the lending side?

Mark Decker

Do you want to start, Bob?

Robert Kiernan

Do you want to try to do it together. Yes. I mean look, the banks have been very supportive. They liked our business before, and we're very supportive in terms of pricing in terms and all of that. And with the move into actually had a bank update meeting about 6 weeks ago. And I think the feedback we got coming away from that was a lot of support for the team. It's a strong team that was evident to all of them, and we had our entire bank group plus a few folks that aren't currently lending money to us at this time.

But look, I think they're excited about a business that can really grow. And I think they see our vision as another good provider to operators of real estate partnership is one that can be meaningful for their business as well. So they've been very -- and we've also shared with them, as we've shared with you and others, our intent to run at lower leverage overall. So if that's available to us, we'll absolutely do that. And I think that is appealing to them as well.

Your next question comes from the line of Rob Stevenson with [ Huntington ].

Rob Stevenson

Can you talk about the current leasing activity and any upcoming known move-outs of significance in the OMF portfolio?

Mark Decker

Yes. Do you want to take that?

Robert Kiernan

Yes, I can start. I mean the -- you saw occupancy tick down a little bit in the third quarter. But again, that was, I think, expected as we talked about same-store running at 1.6% and where it's trending for the full year. We're -- from an occupancy perspective, we have no -- there's no significant no move-outs. Again, we look for -- our retention is around 70% for the quarter, and it's really been running as expected at this point.

Rob Stevenson

Okay. So I mean, that 70%, 75% retention is reasonable to assume on the sort of, call it, 14 and change of that leases by ABR that are rolling in '27. I'm just trying to figure out where occupancy is heading both in terms of earnings contribution and also the impact of vacancy on of potential value on a sale.

Robert Kiernan

Yes. That's fair, Rob. I mean there's nothing -- again, it's not -- again, it's not that volatile. I mean it should be in that same range with -- again, we talked about it in that range, but with the potential upside from there.

Rob Stevenson

Okay. And then just given the comments of the last couple of questions revolving around sort of leverage and capital, et cetera, how much liquidity dry powder, however you want to term it, do you guys have today to even do sort of a smaller shop acquisition versus really needing to at least sell a decent chunk of OMF assets before your next meaningful shop buy?

Mark Decker

Yes. I mean I would think about it as currently pretty modest, but we have, call it, $1.5 billion-ish of seed corn in the form of the outpatient medical. So we've been able to so far kind of match buys and sells, and hopefully, we can continue to do that.

Operator

Your next question comes from the line of John Massocca with B. Riley Securities.

John Massocca

Maybe with that last question in mind, is the move in cap rates for outpatient medical impacting like the return threshold or hurdles you're looking for in senior housing investments? Are you kind of matching those one for one? Or is it because of the strategic shift, you're a little bit more agnostic around how those kind of yields are trending?

Mark Decker

Yes. I mean in my opinion, we're talking about pretty fine motor kind of adjustments, a quarter basis -- 25 basis points or 0.5 point. Fact is, the outpatient medical business is a high single-digit unlevered IRR business and the senior housing is low double-digit unlevered IRR. So there's a couple of hundred basis points of real spread there and a lot of good -- I mean, I think the demographic forces are real and good for both.

And again, it isn't a question that we think -- we've talked a lot about outpatient medical. There's nothing wrong with that business. It's just to try to have earnings growth at sub-40% of leverage with an economic picture at our size. It's just a game that we'd like to have someone else play. So I think our ability to be more meaningful in senior housing is clearly evident to us. I would say, over the last 6 to 9 months, we've grown in conviction around that. So I feel better about it today than I've ever felt about it.

John Massocca

And then going back to the rise in interest rates, has that impacted meaningfully the velocity of transaction activity in the outpatient medical space? Does it also change your thinking or influence your thinking at all as to a focus on larger portfolio transactions versus kind of individual sales or even like the pace of disposition activity and reinvestment?

Mark Decker

I would say no, not really. I mean we're not kind of sellers of convenience. We're focused on strategy. We've been very clear about that to the market kind of in every direction. So I mean, we're going to be thoughtful and measured and try to maximize the outcome as best we can. But I would say there's still a very strong bid. I mean there are people who have been in the medical space for 20-plus years, like our partners at Heitman, who feel like this is a great vintage, and they're very excited about medical.

And there's groups that are new -- relatively new to the space and look at the [ SLA ] and have looked at [ NHP ] looked at some of these assets that have traded in volume and thought we like the underlying thesis, and we want to get in that. So there are -- I'd say the sort of old reliable players and there's lots of newcomers and generally a very positive outlook on the space. So that's good news for us in terms of the weather, I guess, so to speak, that we're kind of out in. And so all positive there. Cost of money changed 25 to 50 basis points, like we said, like that's a real thing. But I would say most people's thesis on the space is intact. And that's all about the demographics, discount to replacement costs, current marks on rents versus what's possible. And I think that's a strong thesis.

Operator

There are no further questions at this time. I will now turn the call over to Mark Decker. Please continue.

Mark Decker

Thank you so much. Listen, we appreciate everyone's time and interest. And hopefully, we'll see some of you guys at NAREIT in a couple of weeks. Thanks so much, and we'll talk soon.

Operator

Ladies and gentlemen, this concludes today's conference call. Thank you for your participation. You may now disconnect.
