Summary
Sonida Senior Living established a up to $250 million at-the-market equity offering program on May 18, 2026, providing the company with a flexible capital-raising tool. The program allows SNDA to sell common stock over time through ten sales agents, either directly or through forward sale agreements.
This structure gives management discretion over timing and volume of share sales, potentially minimizing market impact compared to a traditional secondary offering. The company plans to deploy proceeds toward acquisitions, capital improvements at its senior living communities, working capital, and general corporate purposes including debt repayment.
For a senior living operator, this capital flexibility is meaningful — the sector often requires significant upfront investment for property acquisitions and renovations, and SNDA can now access funding as opportunities arise rather than raising capital in a single transaction. The forward sale feature adds another layer of flexibility, allowing the company to lock in share prices today while deferring actual proceeds receipt and dilution until settlement dates. Retail holders should monitor actual utilization of the program through quarterly filings to gauge management's view of share valuation and capital deployment opportunities.

Each Sales Agent will receive a commission at a mutually agreed rate that will not exceed, but may be lower than, 2.0% of the sale price of all of the Common Stock sold through such Sales Agent under the Distribution Agreement.
Sales agents will receive commissions capped at 2.0% of the sale price for shares sold through them. For forward transactions, forward purchasers receive compensation through a reduced initial forward sale price, also capped at 2.0% of the volume-weighted average price during the selling period.

The Company will not initially receive any proceeds from any sale of Shares by a Forward Seller pursuant to a forward sale agreement. The Company expects to physically settle any forward sale agreement into which it enters (by the delivery of shares of the Common Stock) and receive proceeds from the sale of those shares of Common Stock upon one or more settlement dates under the forward sale agreement no later than the date specified in the applicable forward sale agreement. The Company may also elect to cash settle or net share settle all or a portion of its obligations under any forward sale agreement. If the Company elects to cash settle any forward sale agreement, it may not receive any proceeds, and may owe cash to the relevant Forward Purchaser in certain circumstances. If the Company elects to net share settle any forward sale agreement, it will not receive any proceeds, and may owe shares of Common Stock to the relevant Forward Purchaser in certain circumstances.
For forward sale agreements, the company will not receive proceeds immediately when shares are sold by forward sellers. Instead, proceeds are received upon physical settlement at a later date. The company has flexibility to physically settle, cash settle, or net share settle these agreements, though cash or net share settlement may result in no proceeds or obligations to the forward purchaser.

The Common Stock will be offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3, dated July 30, 2024 (the “Registration Statement”), that was previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In connection with the offer and sale of the Common Stock pursuant to the ATM Program, the Company filed with the SEC a prospectus supplement, dated May 18, 2026 (the “Prospectus Supplement”), to the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, dated July 30, 2024.
The ATM program operates under an existing shelf registration statement filed in July 2024, with a new prospectus supplement filed on May 18, 2026. This allows the company to access capital markets efficiently without needing a new registration process.
