Why it ranks here

  • operating margin -10% to -5%
  • total margin -8% to -3%
  • current ratio under 1.5
  • liabilities exceed assets
  • margin deteriorating sharply
  • urban — higher occupancy and iteration surface
  • LTCH — distress here is a payment-model artifact
  • small but workable bed count
  • small ticket — deploys little of the available capital
  • strong occupancy — good iteration surface
  • for-profit — no charitable conversion review
