National Health Investors said CFO John Spaid will retire effective July 1, 2026, and Todd Siefert, who joins as Executive Vice President Corporate Finance on June 1, 2026, will succeed him as Chief Financial Officer. The change puts the REIT's finance leadership in new hands, and the filing reports no financial results or guidance changes.
