See "June 30, 2025 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 in the Investor Relations section of our website at http://ir.healthpeak.com/quarterly-results.

NORTHSIDE OUTPATIENT MEDICAL DEVELOPMENTS
During the second quarter of 2025, Healthpeak entered into two new outpatient development agreements in high-growth submarkets of Atlanta totaling $148 million to support the expansion of our longstanding partner, Northside Hospital. Affiliates of Northside have pre-leased 78% of each building for a range of clinical services, reflecting the system's continued investment in outpatient capacity across two premier campuses. Physician tenants will have the ability to co-invest in the buildings. Upon stabilization, Healthpeak expects to achieve cash yields in the mid-7% range.
Northside Forsyth: $82 million, 118,000 square foot Class A outpatient medical building and accompanying parking deck located on the campus of Northside Hospital Forsyth, a 389-bed acute care hospital located in Cumming, Georgia, a northeastern suburb of Atlanta.
Northside Cherokee: $66 million, 148,000 square foot Class A outpatient medical building located on the campus of Northside Hospital Cherokee, a 332-bed acute care hospital in Canton, Georgia, a northern suburb of Atlanta.

As of July 24, 2025, approximately $406 million remained available for share repurchases under the program.
BALANCE SHEET
In June 2025, Healthpeak repaid $452 million 4.0% senior notes at maturity.

_______________________________________

During the first quarter of 2025, we changed our definition of AFFO to adjust for the non-refundable entrance fees collected in excess of the related amortization as we believe the cash collection of these fees is a more meaningful representation of the performance of CCRCs in the determination of AFFO. Utilizing the prior definition for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, diluted AFFO applicable to common shares was $295.7 million and $276.9 million, respectively, and diluted AFFO per common share was $0.42 and $0.39, respectively. Utilizing the prior definition for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, diluted AFFO applicable to common shares was $597.4 million and $524.6 million, respectively, and diluted AFFO per common share was $0.84 and $0.79, respectively.

The real estate investment trust (REIT) owns a reliable and high-quality real estate portfolio that generates stable rental income. This enables the REIT to pay a steadily rising monthly dividend currently yielding 5.5%. Here's why Realty Income is a safe way to supplement your retirement income. A high-quality portfolio Realty Income's foundation is its high-quality real estate portfolio. The REIT owns over 15,600 properties in the U.S. and parts of Europe. Its portfolio includes retail (approximately 80% of its rent), industrial (15%), gaming (3%), and other properties, such as data centers (2%), net leased to over 1,600 tenants across 90+ industries. About 90% of rent comes from tenants in recession-resistant industries and those less affected by e-commerce, such as grocery stores, home improvement centers, and convenience stores. The company invests in properties secured by long-term net leases that provide predictable rental income because tenants cover all property operating costs, including routine maintenance, real estate taxes, and building insurance. Most leases raise rents at a low single-digit rate each year. As a result, Realty Income's existing portfolio delivers steadily rising rental income. A fortress financial profile Realty Income pairs its strong real estate portfolio with a robust financial profile. The REIT pays about 75% of its adjusted funds from operations (FFO) in dividends each year. This cushion will enable it to retain over $750 million of excess free cash flow in 2025 to fund new investments. The company also has a strong A3/A- bond rating (its credit rating is in the top 10 within the REIT sector) backed by a low leverage ratio, and it has ample liquidity. This financial strength enhances Realty Income's ability to continue expanding its real estate portfolio. Resilient and consistent growth Realty Income's portfolio has demonstrated its durability over the decades. Since completing its public market listing in 1994, the REIT had only one year (2009) when it failed to grow its adjusted FFO per share. Overall, it has grown adjusted FFO per share at a more than 5% compound annual rate. The company's growth and financial strength have enabled it to raise its dividend every single year since its public market listing. Realty Income has increased its payout 131 times, including the last 111 quarters. It has grown the payout at a 4.2% compound annual rate since it went public. That steady growth is likely to continue. Realty Income's financial strength gives it the capacity to invest in more income-generating real estate. There is a $14 trillion potential market opportunity to invest in net lease properties in the U.S. and Europe. That provides the REIT with a very long growth runway. It has been steadily enhancing its growth prospects by investing in additional property classes (data centers and gaming), more countries in Europe, and through new investment platforms (credit and private capital). A great way to supplement your retirement income Realty Income's portfolio generates reliable rental income to support its high-yielding monthly dividend. Its strong financial profile further supports the dividend and its continued expansion. These features make Realty Income an exceptionally safe choice for those seeking to supplement their retirement income. Should you buy stock in Realty Income right now?
