Christopher Christensen will serve as the Chairman of our Board. Mr. Christensen is the co-founder and Executive Chairman of The Ensign Group, Inc. (“Ensign”; NASDAQ: ENSG), a leading publicly-traded operator in the skilled nursing sector. Mr. Christensen previously served as President of Ensign from 1999 to 2006 and as Chief Executive Officer of Ensign from 2006 to 2019. During his terms as Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman, Ensign completed more than 160 acquisitions, and successfully spun off its real estate assets into CareTrust REIT, Inc. (“CareTrust REIT”; NASDAQ: CTRE) and its home health, hospice and assisted living assets into The Pennant Group, Inc. (“Pennant”; NASDAQ: PNTG), which has executed 10 acquisitions since March 2020. Ensign and Pennant have realized stock returns of over 2,000% and 150%, representing compound annual growth rates of 25% and 71%, since the IPO in November 2007 and spin-off in October 2019, respectively, as of June 24, 2021.
This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0001417555 — the identifier this person files under in their own name. Every vehicle above is a filing made under that CIK, so “the same person on two shells” is a fact about an SEC identifier rather than about a name that happens to match.
Roles are the strings the filings used, in the order they were filed. Nothing on this page ranks them, infers seniority, or offers a reason why any two of these names recur — a recurrence is a count, and the filings that produced it are linked beside every row. We also hold 30 institutional-holder rows on these vehicles, under 15 distinct name strings, and none of them is counted across vehicles: that table has no CIK column, and matching holders by name would merge firms that are not the same firm.
