Omega Healthcare Investors operates as a self-administered real estate investment trust (REIT) that generates its revenue primarily by owning, financing, and leasing skilled nursing facilities and assisted living properties across the United States and United Kingdom. The company makes money by entering into long-term, triple-net lease agreements with third-party healthcare operators and senior housing providers. Under these lease structures, tenants are contractually obligated to pay fixed base rent alongside property taxes, insurance, and routine maintenance costs. This operational model converts stable long-term healthcare real estate leasing into predictable cash flows, supporting consistent dividend distributions for its shareholders.
