Written by Customer Service on . Posted in Mergers And Acquisitions.

MARKHAM, Ontario, April 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sienna Senior Living Inc. (“Sienna” or the “Company“) (TSX: SIA) announced today that it has finalized its previously announced acquisition of a portfolio of four continuing care homes in Alberta (“Acquisition”), consisting of 540 suites in the Calgary Metropolitan Region, Edmonton, Fort Saskatchewan and Medicine Hat for an aggregate purchase price of $181.6 million.

“This acquisition strengthens Sienna’s national presence and further enhances the scale, quality, and geographic diversity of our operations,” said Nitin Jain, President and Chief Executive Officer of Sienna. “We are excited to welcome the residents and team members at our new locations as we continue on our growth path.”

Sienna expects the Acquisition to generate an approximate 6.5% investment yield in the first twelve months of operations, with opportunity for additional growth, including synergies from potential further expansion in Western Canada.

The Acquisition was financed through the assumption of approximately $150.6 million of CMHC debt with a weighted average interest rate of 4.6% and a remaining average term of approximately 4.3 years. The balance was financed with cash on hand.

The Acquisition follows the purchase of the remaining 30% interest in Nicola Lodge in Metro Vancouver on February 28, 2025, increasing Sienna’s ownership in the 256-bed best-in-class long-term care community to 100%. The transaction was financed through the assumption of the remaining share of an in-place mortgage as well as cash on hand.
