"We had solid results in the second quarter, particularly given the increased challenges of the macro-economic environment. We built occupancy every month and ended with all segments increasing for the quarter. We continue to have positive, but modest, senior housing revenue per unit increases, and ancillary service revenue continues to experience strong growth. During the second quarter, we made three home health agency acquisitions and have an active pipeline of pending agency acquisitions and start-up agencies which we expect to operate before the end of the year. We have had a good start to the third quarter with an increase in occupancy in July, the completion of two additional home health agency acquisitions and an improvement in our entry fee sales activity," said Bill Sheriff, Brookdale’s CEO.
