Here is what Clark Street Value has to say about Regional Health Properties, Inc. in its Q4 2021 investor letter:

“My other senior housing play is the preferred stock of Regional Health Properties (RHE-A), which briefly attempted a similar out of court restructuring by proposing to exchange the preferred stock for common.  The largest preferred shareholder comically shot it down.  This company is a bit of a mess, they recently had the State of Alabama pull the license of one of their biggest tenants a couple weeks ago, looks like RHE might be taking over the management of another one of their facilities here shortly.  That temporary measure appears to becoming more permanent in their other managed facilities.  The company is in a tough spot, it is not bankrupt but the capital structure doesn’t work and there’s no easy way to fix it since the worthless common stock need to approve of an exchange.”
