THE DAY THE FUND SOLD OUT, IT FELT LIKE THE ENTIRE MARKET WAS ON A BENDER, AND AHR WAS THE LAST BOTTLE OF TEQUILA. CALIFORNIA-BASED GLOBAL IMC, THAT CALIFORNIA-BASED BEAST OF THE INVESTMENT WORLD, OFFLOADED ITS ENTIRE STAKE IN AHR, A MOVE WORTH $8.16 MILLION. LIKE SELLING A CAR YOU’VE BEEN DRIVING FOR A YEAR, ONLY TO FIND OUT THE ENGINE’S BEEN REVVING AT 10,000 RPM THE WHOLE TIME.
WHAT HAPPENED
ACCORDING TO A SEC FILING DATED NOVEMBER 14, GLOBAL IMC LLC SELLING ALL 222,038 SHARES OF AHR. THE ESTIMATED TRANSACTION VALUE, BASED ON QUARTERLY AVERAGE PRICING, WAS $8.16 MILLION. IT WASN’T A SLOW, METHODICAL EXIT-IT WAS A FULL-THROTTLE SCRAMBLE, LIKE A MAN RUNNING FROM A FIRE THAT HE CAN’T SEE.
WHAT ELSE TO KNOW
GLOBAL IMC’S AHR STAKE PREVIOUSLY ACCOUNTED FOR 2.1% OF FUND AUM. NOW IT’S GONE, LEAVING THE FUND’S PORTFOLIO AS A MOSAIC OF OTHER ASSETS, EACH BIGGER THAN THE LAST. TOP HOLDINGS AFTER THE FILING: KGC, HBM, TSEM, IREN, EGO-ALL GORGING ON THE SAME FEAST OF CAPITAL, WHILE AHR’S RISE WAS A SPECTACLE THAT EVEN THE MOST Jaded SPECTATOR COULDN’T IGNORE.
AS OF FRIDAY, AHR SHARES WERE PRICED AT $48.13, UP 77% OVER THE PAST YEAR. THE S&P 500? IT’S JUST A SLOW, STEADY CLIMB, LIKE A TURTLE ON A TREADMILL. AHR? IT’S A ROCKET LAUNCHING INTO THE STRATOSPHERE, AND GLOBAL IMC DECIDED TO QUIT THE RIDE BEFORE IT REACHES ORBIT.

COMPANY SNAPSHOT
- American Healthcare REIT OWNS AND MANAGES A DIVERSE PORTFOLIO OF MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDINGS, SENIOR HOUSING COMMUNITIES, SKILLED NURSING FACILITIES, AND INTEGRATED SENIOR HEALTH CAMPUSES ACROSS THE U.S. AND U.K.
- IT OPERATES AS A HEALTHCARE-FOCUSED REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST (REIT).
- IT SERVES INSTITUTIONAL INVESTORS AND HEALTHCARE OPERATORS SEEKING STABLE, INCOME-GENERATING REAL ESTATE ASSETS.
AHR IS A LEADER IN HEALTHCARE-FOCUSED REITS, LEVERAGING A FULLY INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT PLATFORM AND AN EXPERIENCED TEAM TO CAPITALIZE ON DEMOGRAPHIC-DRIVEN DEMAND FOR HEALTHCARE REAL ESTATE. ITS SCALE, ASSET QUALITY, AND ESTABLISHED OPERATOR RELATIONSHIPS POSITION IT TO BENEFIT FROM LONG-TERM SECTOR GROWTH AND ACCESS TO PUBLIC CAPITAL MARKETS.
FOOLISH TAKE
GLOBAL IMC’S AHR POSITION WAS SOLD AMID A PARTICULARLY STRONG RUN, AND THAT’S CERTAINLY NOTABLE. IN A PORTFOLIO WHERE THE TOP HOLDINGS EACH MAKE UP MORE THAN 14% OF ASSETS, A 2.1% POSITION WAS NEVER A CORE BET. AND WHEN CAPITAL IS CONCENTRATED ELSEWHERE, SMALLER POSITIONS OFTEN BECOME SOURCES OF LIQUIDITY RATHER THAN LONG-TERM COMPOUNDERS, ESPECIALLY AFTER A STOCK DELIVERS A CLEAN RALLY.
THAT MAKES THE TIMING UNDERSTANDABLE, EVEN IF THE UNDERLYING BUSINESS REMAINS SOLID. IN THE THIRD QUARTER, AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT REPORTED GAAP NET INCOME OF $55.9 MILLION, OR $0.33 PER SHARE, ALONGSIDE NORMALIZED FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS OF $0.44 PER SHARE. MEANWHILE, SAME-STORE NOI GROWTH 16.4% YEAR OVER YEAR, DRIVEN BY ESPECIALLY STRONG PERFORMANCE IN SENIOR HOUSING AND INTEGRATED SENIOR HEALTH CAMPUSES. MANAGEMENT ALSO RAISED FULL-YEAR GUIDANCE, NOW EXPECTING NORMALIZED FFO OF UP TO $1.72 PER SHARE AND SAME-STORE NOI GROWTH AS HIGH AS 15% FOR 2025.
THIS EXIT DOES NOT INVALIDATE THE STORY; IT HIGHLIGHTS HOW DISCIPLINED FUNDS RECYCLE CAPITAL AFTER RALLIES, EVEN IN BUSINESSES THAT ARE EXECUTING WELL. STRONG FUNDAMENTALS DO NOT ALWAYS MEAN A STOCK STAYS IN THE PORTFOLIO FOREVER.
