FIRST QUARTER COMPARISON

Nareit FFO, FFO as Adjusted, AFFO, Total Merger-Combined 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 the "Funds From Operations" and "Adjusted Funds From Operations" sections of this release for additional information). See "March 31, 2024 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.

MERGER-COMBINED SAME-STORE ("SS") OPERATING SUMMARY

PHYSICIANS REALTY TRUST MERGER INTEGRATION

As previously disclosed, on March 1, 2024, Healthpeak closed the merger with Physicians Realty Trust.

To date, the company has completed internalization of property management in 10 markets covering 17 million square feet. Healthpeak now forecasts year one merger-related synergies of $45 million, an increase of $5 million compared to the prior estimate.

REDEVELOPMENT UPDATE

PORTSIDE AT OYSTER POINT

During the first quarter, Healthpeak placed approximately 325,000 square feet across three buildings at its Portside at Oyster Point ("Portside") campus in South San Francisco into redevelopment.

Elements of the redevelopment include the addition of a fitness center, boardroom, and outdoor meeting and gathering spaces complemented by updated landscaping throughout the campus. Additionally, the redevelopment will improve connectivity between Healthpeak's Cove and Portside campuses, creating an approximately 2 million square foot amenity-rich contiguous campus at the entrance to South San Francisco's life science market.

The enhanced amenity offering, improved connectivity, and significantly lower tenant operating costs relative to new construction, provide Healthpeak a competitive leasing advantage. To date, Healthpeak has re-leased approximately 175,000 square feet across the 465,000 square foot in active redevelopment on the Portside campus with initial occupancy expected to commence in mid-2024.

DISPOSITIONS AND LOAN REPAYMENTS

• Callan Ridge Joint Venture: As previously announced, in January 2024, Healthpeak sold a 65% interest in the fully leased Callan Ridge lab campus in the Torrey Pines submarket of San Diego. The formation of the joint venture valued Callan Ridge at $236 million, or $1,275 per square foot, and represents a stabilized cash capitalization rate of 5.3% based on the initial annual rental rate of approximately $67 per square foot. At closing, net proceeds to Healthpeak were $128 million. Additionally, the formation of the joint venture reduces Healthpeak's future tenant improvement funding by approximately $20 million.

• Outpatient Medical Dispositions: In March 2024, Healthpeak sold two outpatient medical buildings for $29 million.

• Poway R&D Portfolio: In April 2024, Healthpeak sold a portfolio of seven buildings in the Poway submarket of San Diego for $180 million. The portfolio comprises R&D, industrial, and office spaces across 702,000 square feet and is fully-leased to an affiliate of General Atomics. The trailing cash capitalization rate on the disposition was 6.0%.

• Loan Repayments: During the first quarter, we received $69 million of seller financing loan repayments.

SHARE REPURCHASE ACTIVITY

In March 2024, Healthpeak repurchased 5.8 million shares at a weighted average share price of $17.11 for approximately $100 million under its $500 million share repurchase program. As of March 31, 2024, $344 million remained available for share repurchases under the program.

CAPITAL MARKETS

As previously announced, Healthpeak entered into a new $750 million 5-year unsecured term loan on March 1, 2024. Healthpeak entered into swap agreements to fix the interest rate of the new term loan at approximately 4.5% for the full 5-year term of the loan.

As of April 25, 2024, Healthpeak had $3.1 billion in available liquidity through a combination of unrestricted cash and full capacity of its $3 billion revolving credit facility.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

On April 25, 2024, Christine N. Garvey and David B. Henry retired from Healthpeak's Board pursuant to the director term limit policy. Healthpeak's Board of Directors reduced the size of the Board to 11 members.

DIVIDEND

On April 24, 2024, Healthpeak's Board declared a quarterly common stock cash dividend of $0.30 per share to be paid on May 17, 2024, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 6, 2024.
