Earnings Measures Drop as Seniors Housing Ramps Up

Chiron Real Estate (NYSE:XRN) released third-quarter 2026 figures on November 4, 2026. Core FFO of USD 0.75 per share and unit, FFO of USD 0.50 and a USD 8.9 million net loss all came in lower. Per-share values reflect the one-for-five reverse split that took effect September 19, 2025. Administrative costs reached USD 7.7 million, with USD 2.0 million of severance and transition expense linked to the seniors housing shift, largely the replacement of the chief Investment officer. Total operating expenses climbed to USD 14.1 million from USD 8.2 million. Those per-share results should be read alongside the reverse split adjustment described above.
