DEVELOPMENT UPDATES

VANTAGE PHASE I

In September 2023, Healthpeak signed an additional 23,000 square foot lease with a global pharmaceutical company at its Vantage Phase I development in South San Francisco, California, bringing the property to 52% pre-leased.

Strategically located on Forbes Boulevard and at the doorstep of Genentech's headquarters, the purpose-built lab campus will feature state-of-the-art design, an amenity center, flexible and efficient floor plates, and building systems accommodating a broad range of lab uses.

WEST CAMBRIDGE

In September 2023, the Cambridge City Council unanimously approved a comprehensive rezoning to allow for greater density and developable heights in the West Cambridge neighborhood of Alewife. Healthpeak’s vision for the neighborhood incorporates Alewife’s historic heritage and its innovative future by creating an active public realm driven by world-class real estate including lab, R&D and multi-family residential. Healthpeak owns a total of 39 acres in Alewife.

GRAPHITE BIO LEASE MODIFICATION

In October 2023, Healthpeak modified an approximately 85,200 square foot lease with Graphite Bio (Nasdaq: GRPH) at the Nexus on Grand campus in South San Francisco, California. Under the terms of the modification, Graphite Bio’s lease expiration date was accelerated to December 31, 2024 in exchange for total consideration of $58 million, consisting of:

i.

$37 million cash payment, which is inclusive of the prepayment of Graphite Bio's 2024 contractual rent, including operating expense reimbursements, and termination and related fees; and

ii.

$21 million credit for future rent and operating expense reimbursements from the in-place 32,000 square foot subtenant; the subtenant has approximately one year remaining on the sublease, at which point it will become a direct tenant of Healthpeak with a lease term of approximately six years

The $58 million in total consideration is equivalent to approximately 5+ years of Graphite Bio’s original contractual rental payments, including operating expense reimbursements, and provides ample time for Healthpeak to release the remaining 53,000 square feet of fully built-out, Class A space to new tenants. Healthpeak retains the right to immediately release this space with no change in the payments due from Graphite Bio or the subtenant.

ESG

Healthpeak received the GRESB Green Star designation for the twelfth consecutive year. Healthpeak was also named a finalist by Governance Intelligence and IR Magazine for Best Proxy Statement for the fourth consecutive year and Best ESG Reporting for the second consecutive year, and included in Fortune's list of Best Workplaces in Real Estate for the second consecutive year.

To learn more about Healthpeak's commitment to responsible business and view our 2022 ESG Report, please visit www.healthpeak.com/ESG.

DIVIDEND

On October 29, 2023, Healthpeak's Board declared a quarterly common stock cash dividend of $0.30 per share to be paid on November 20, 2023, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 7, 2023.

We are updating the following guidance ranges for full year 2023:

  • Diluted earnings per common share from $0.49 – $0.53 to $0.53 – $0.55
  • Diluted Nareit FFO per share from $1.72 – $1.76 to $1.76 – $1.78
  • Diluted FFO as Adjusted per share from $1.73 – $1.77 to $1.76 – $1.78

Pending acquisitions, dispositions, joint venture transactions, leasing activity, and financing activity, including those subject to binding agreements, remain subject to closing conditions and may not be completed within the anticipated timeframes or at all. Forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations and views about future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect our future financial condition and results of operations. While forward-looking statements reflect our good faith belief and assumptions we believe to be reasonable based upon current information, we can give no assurance that our expectations or forecasts will be attained. Further, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of any such forward-looking statement contained in this release, and such forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: macroeconomic trends, including inflation, interest rates, labor costs, and unemployment; the ability of our existing and future tenants, operators, and borrowers to conduct their respective businesses in a manner that generates sufficient income to make rent and loan payments to us; the financial condition of our tenants, operators, and borrowers, including potential bankruptcies and downturns in their businesses, and their legal and regulatory proceedings; our concentration of real estate investments in the healthcare property sector, which makes us more vulnerable to a downturn in a specific sector than if we invested across multiple sectors; the illiquidity of real estate investments; our ability to identify and secure new or replacement tenants and operators; our property development, redevelopment, and tenant improvement activity risks, including project abandonments, project delays, and lower profits than expected; changes within the industries in which we operate; significant regulation, funding requirements, and uncertainty faced by our lab tenants; the ability of the hospitals on whose campuses our outpatient medical buildings are located and their affiliated healthcare systems to remain competitive or financially viable; our ability to develop, maintain, or expand hospital and health system client relationships; operational risks associated with third party management contracts, including the additional regulation and liabilities of our properties operated through RIDEA structures; economic conditions, natural disasters, weather, and other conditions that negatively affect geographic areas where we have concentrated investments; uninsured or underinsured losses, which could result in significant losses and/or performance declines by us or our tenants and operators; our investments in joint ventures and unconsolidated entities, including our lack of sole decision making authority and our reliance on our partners’ financial condition and continued cooperation; our use of fixed rent escalators, contingent rent provisions, and/or rent escalators based on the Consumer Price Index; competition for suitable healthcare properties to grow our investment portfolio; our ability to foreclose or exercise rights on collateral securing our real estate-related loans; investment of substantial resources and time in transactions that are not consummated; our ability to successfully integrate or operate acquisitions; the potential impact on us and our tenants, operators, and borrowers from litigation matters, including rising liability and insurance costs; environmental compliance costs and liabilities associated with our real estate investments; epidemics, pandemics, or other infectious diseases, including Covid, and health and safety measures intended to reduce their spread; the loss or limited availability of our key personnel; our reliance on information technology systems and the potential impact of system failures, disruptions, or breaches; increased borrowing costs, including due to rising interest rates; cash available for distribution to stockholders and our ability to make dividend distributions at expected levels; the availability of external capital on acceptable terms or at all, including due to rising interest rates, changes in our credit ratings and the value of our common stock, volatility or uncertainty in the capital markets, and other factors; our ability to manage our indebtedness level and covenants in and changes to the terms of such indebtedness; bank failures or other events affecting financial institutions; the failure of our tenants, operators, and borrowers to comply with federal, state, and local laws and regulations, including resident health and safety requirements, as well as licensure, certification, and inspection requirements; required regulatory approvals to transfer our senior housing properties; compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and fire, safety, and other regulations; laws or regulations prohibiting eviction of our tenants; the requirements of, or changes to, governmental reimbursement programs such as Medicare or Medicaid; legislation to address federal government operations and administrative decisions affecting the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services; our participation in the CARES Act Provider Relief Fund and other Covid-related stimulus and relief programs; our ability to maintain our qualification as a REIT; changes to U.S. federal income tax laws, and potential deferred and contingent tax liabilities from corporate acquisitions; calculating non-REIT tax earnings and profits distributions; ownership limits in our charter that restrict ownership in our stock; provisions of Maryland law and our charter that could prevent a transaction that may otherwise be in the interest of our stockholders; and other risks and uncertainties described from time to time in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings.
