DENVER, May 05, 2026 --( BUSINESS WIRE )--Healthpeak Properties, Inc. (NYSE: DOC), a leading owner, operator, and developer of real estate for healthcare discovery and delivery, today announced results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. FIRST QUARTER 2026 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND RECENT HIGHLIGHTS To learn more about Healthpeak's commitment to responsible business and view our Corporate Impact Report, please visit www.healthpeak.com/corporate-impact . FIRST QUARTER COMPARISON SAME-STORE ("SS") OPERATING SUMMARY The table below outlines the year-over-year three-month total SS Cash (Adjusted) NOI growth. Nareit FFO, FFO as Adjusted, Total Same-Store Cash (Adjusted) NOI, and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are useful in evaluating the operating performance and financial position of real estate investment trusts. See "March 31, 2026 Discussion and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for definitions, discussions of their uses and inherent limitations, and reconciliations to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, available in the Investor Relations section of our website at http://ir.healthpeak.com/quarterly-results . See also the "Funds From Operations" section of this release for additional information. DIVIDEND On April 6, 2026, Healthpeak's Board of Directors declared a monthly common stock cash dividend of $0.10167 per share for each of April, May, and June of 2026, representing cash dividends totaling $0.305 per share for the second quarter, and an annualized dividend amount of $1.22 per share. The dividend is payable on the payment dates set forth in the table below to stockholders of record as of the close of business on the corresponding record date. JANUS LIVING INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING In March 2026, Janus Living completed its IPO and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "JAN". The net proceeds from the IPO were approximately $880 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and expenses payable by Janus Living. Janus Living expects to use the net proceeds from the offering to pursue acquisition and investment opportunities that meet its investment criteria and for general corporate purposes. As of the IPO, Healthpeak owned approximately 214.7 million shares of common stock and operating partnership common units in Janus Living, representing an 81.6% equity ownership. JANUS LIVING'S FIRST QUARTER RESULTS On May 5, 2026, Janus Living reported first quarter operating and financial results including year-over-year consolidated revenue and Adjusted EBITDAre growth of 35% and 42%, respectively, resulting in FFO as Adjusted of $0.23 per share. Janus Living is under contract on approximately $400 million of incremental senior housing acquisitions. As of March 31, 2026, Janus Living had $949 million of cash and no outstanding debt. Janus Living also announced its intent to make a pro rata dividend payment for the period between March 20, 2026 and June 30, 2026, based on a distribution rate of $0.1425 per share, representing an annualized dividend of $0.57 per share. Janus Living’s operations are consolidated into Healthpeak’s financial statements, with the approximately 18.4% not owned by Healthpeak reported as noncontrolling interest. SENIOR HOUSING ACQUISITIONS During the first quarter 2026, Healthpeak closed on senior housing acquisitions totaling $714 million across 25 communities. These communities were contributed to Janus Living as part of the formation transactions. A summary of the acquisitions is as follows: SHARE REPURCHASE ACTIVITY In April 2026, Healthpeak repurchased 5.9 million common shares at a weighted average share price of $16.81 for approximately $100 million under its $500 million share repurchase program. As of May 5, 2026, approximately $306 million remained available for share repurchases under the program. OUTPATIENT MEDICAL JOINT VENTURE RECAPITALIZATION In March 2026, Healthpeak entered into a joint venture with affiliates of Blackstone through the contribution of a 100% occupied, six-property outpatient medical portfolio valued at approximately $212 million. The portfolio comprises approximately 418,000 square feet across California, Maryland, Colorado, Texas, and Nebraska. Under the terms of the joint venture, Blackstone owns an 80% majority interest and Healthpeak retains a 20% minority interest. Healthpeak will serve as operating member of the joint venture and will continue to provide asset and property management services, earning customary fees. The joint venture establishes a platform from which the parties will seek to expand their relationship over time. Healthpeak received gross proceeds of approximately $170 million for the sale of the 80% interest. The transaction implies a trailing cash cap rate of approximately 6.1% and a valuation of approximately $508 per square foot. The transaction reflects continued execution on Healthpeak’s ongoing capital recycling strategy and the strong private market interest in Healthpeak's operating platform and relationships. DISPOSITIONS During the first quarter 2026, Healthpeak closed on approximately $92 million of dispositions and received loan repayments for proceeds of $5 million. Together with the recapitalization, Healthpeak has generated $267 million of net proceeds as of May 5, 2026. BALANCE SHEET As previously disclosed, in March 2026, Healthpeak closed on a new $400 million unsecured delayed-draw term loan facility. The term loan matures in March 2031 and bears interest at SOFR plus 80 basis points, based on Healthpeak’s current credit ratings. The unsecured term loan facility was undrawn as of May 5, 2026. 2026 GUIDANCE We are updating the following guidance ranges for full year 2026: We are reaffirming full year 2026 Total Same-Store Cash (Adjusted) NOI growth in the range of (1.0%) – 1.0% These estimates are based on our current view of existing market conditions, transaction timing, and other assumptions for the year ending December 31, 2026. For additional details and assumptions, please see page 10 in our corresponding Supplemental Report and the Discussion and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures, both of which are available in the Investor Relations section of our website at http://ir.healthpeak.com .
