NOTE 1—DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Ventas, Inc., (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated or except where the context otherwise requires, “we,” “us,” “our,” “Ventas,” “Company” and other similar terms) is an S&P 500 company focused on delivering strong, sustainable shareholder returns by enabling exceptional environments that benefit a large and growing aging population. We hold a portfolio that includes senior housing communities, outpatient medical buildings, research centers, hospitals and healthcare facilities located in North America and the United Kingdom. As of March 31, 2026, we owned or had investments in 1,425 properties consisting of 1,390 properties in our reportable segments (“Segment Properties”) and 35 properties held by unconsolidated real estate entities in our non-segment operations. We are headquartered in Chicago, Illinois with additional corporate offices in Louisville, Kentucky and New York, New York.

We elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 1999. Provided we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we generally are not required to pay U.S. federal corporate income taxes on our REIT taxable income that is currently distributed to our stockholders. In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must satisfy a number of technical requirements, which impact how we invest in, operate and manage our assets.

We operate through three reportable segments: senior housing operating portfolio, which we refer to as “SHOP,” outpatient medical and research portfolio, which we refer to as “OM&R,” and triple-net leased properties, which we refer to as “NNN.” We also hold assets outside of our reportable segments, which we refer to as non-segment assets, and which consist primarily of corporate assets, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, loans receivable and investments, accounts receivable and investments in unconsolidated entities. Our investments in unconsolidated entities include investments made through our third-party institutional private capital management platform, Ventas Investment Management (“VIM”). Through VIM, we partner with third-party institutional investors to invest in real estate through various joint ventures and other co-investment vehicles where we are the sponsor or general partner, including our open-ended investment vehicle, the Ventas Life Science & Healthcare Real Estate Fund (the “Ventas Fund”). Our investments in unconsolidated entities also includes investments in operating entities, such as Ardent Health, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “Ardent”) and Atria Senior Living, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “Atria”).

Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) evaluates performance of the combined properties in each operating segment and determines how to allocate resources to these segments based on net operating income (“NOI”) for each segment. See “Note 16 – Segment Information.”

The following table summarizes information for our portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2026 (dollars in thousands):

SegmentNOI (1)Percentage of Total NOISegment Properties
Senior housing operating portfolio (SHOP)$374,45857.5%783

Triple-net leased properties (NNN)120,17018.5200
Non-segment (2)5,8470.9n/a
$651,078100.0%1,390

(1) Net Operating Income (“NOI”) is defined as total revenues, less interest and other income, property-level operating expenses and third-party capital management expenses. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional disclosure and a reconciliation to Net income attributable to common stockholders, as computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), to NOI.

(2) NOI for non-segment includes management fees and promote revenues, net of expenses related to our third-party institutional private capital management platform, income from loans and investments and corporate-level expenses not directly attributable to any of our three reportable segments.

NOTE 2—ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information set forth in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), as published by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), and with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “2025 Annual Report”).

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions regarding future events that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries and the joint venture entities over which we exercise control. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation, and our net earnings are reduced by the portion of net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests.

Substantially all of the assets of the consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”) are real estate investments and substantially all of the liabilities of the consolidated VIEs are mortgage loans. Assets of the consolidated VIEs can only be used to settle obligations of such VIEs. Liabilities of the consolidated VIEs represent claims against the specific assets of the VIEs. In general, any mortgage loans of the consolidated VIEs are non-recourse to the non-VIE consolidated entities. The table below summarizes the total assets and liabilities of the consolidated VIEs as reported on our Consolidated Balance Sheets (dollars in thousands):

Recent Accounting Standards

On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“DISE”), which requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities (“PBEs”). ASU 2024-03 requires PBEs to include footnote disclosure that disaggregates, in a tabular presentation, each relevant expense caption on the face of the income statement that includes certain natural expenses relevant to the Company, such as (i) employee compensation, (ii) depreciation and (iii) intangible asset amortization. The tabular disclosure must also include certain other expenses, when applicable. The ASU does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The requirements will be applied

prospectively with the option for retrospective application. We are evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03 on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 3—CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

We use total revenues and total NOI in assessing our concentration of credit risk. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional disclosure and a reconciliation of Net income attributable to common stockholders, as computed in accordance with GAAP, to total NOI.

We are exposed to the credit risk of our tenants in our NNN and OM&R segments because those tenants are obligated to pay us rent and, in certain instances, pay or reimburse us for some or all property-related expenses, including utilities, real estate taxes, insurance, repairs and maintenance, cleaning, roads and grounds expense and other expenses. Because we engage independent managers to manage the properties in our SHOP segment in exchange for a management fee, we are not directly exposed to their credit risk in the same manner or to the same extent as the tenants in our NNN and OM&R segments.

The following table summarizes certain information about our credit risk concentration for our NNN and OM&R segments:

For the Three Months Ended March 31,
20262025
Contribution as a Percentage of Total Revenues:
Ardent2.4%2.8%
Kindred Healthcare, LLC (“Kindred”)2.02.7
Contribution as a Percentage of Total NOI:
Ardent6.0%6.7%
Kindred5.26.3

All of the rent due to us from Kindred and substantially all of the rent due to us from Ardent is guaranteed by their respective corporate parents.

Lease Income

Rental income from our NNN and OM&R operating leases consists of fixed and variable lease payments. The variable payments primarily represent (i) amounts that certain tenants pay to reimburse us for property-level operating expenses that we pay on their behalf and (ii) percentage rent, which is a rental charge typically based on certain tenants' gross revenue. Substantially all of the resident fees and services earned from our SHOP segment represent fixed income from operating leases and have not been included in the table below.

The following table summarizes rental income from our NNN and OM&R operating leases (dollars in thousands):

NOTE 4—ACQUISITIONS OF REAL ESTATE PROPERTY

We acquire and invest in senior housing, outpatient medical buildings, research centers and other healthcare properties primarily to achieve an expected yield on our investment, to grow and diversify our portfolio and revenue base and to reduce our dependence on any single manager or tenant, geographic location, asset type, business model or revenue source. Each of our acquisitions disclosed below was accounted for as an asset acquisition.

2026 Acquisitions

In our SHOP segment, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, we acquired 29 senior housing communities for an aggregate purchase price of $983.4 million.

In our SHOP segment, in April 2026, we acquired two senior housing communities for an aggregate purchase price of $59.0 million; and through a subsidiary in which we hold a 75% controlling interest, we acquired 11 senior housing communities for an aggregate purchase price of $540.0 million.

NOTE 5—DISPOSITIONS, ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND IMPAIRMENTS

Dispositions

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we sold one senior housing community in our SHOP segment, one property in our OM&R segment and 10 properties in our NNN segment for aggregate consideration of $47.1 million and recognized $15.0 million in Gain on real estate dispositions in our Consolidated Statements of Income.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recognized impairments of $22.1 million comprised of $7.6 million, $14.4 million and $0.1 million in our SHOP, OM&R and NNN segments, respectively. The impairments are recorded primarily as a component of Depreciation and amortization in our Consolidated Statements of Income. The impairments recorded were primarily a result of a change in our intent to hold or a change in the expected future cash flows of the impaired assets.

NOTE 7—INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED ENTITIES

We report investments in unconsolidated entities over whose operating and financial policies we have the ability to exercise significant influence under the equity method of accounting. Our investments in unconsolidated entities include investments in both real estate entities and operating entities as described further below. We periodically evaluate our investments in unconsolidated entities for indicators of an other-than-temporary impairment. No impairments were recognized for our investments in unconsolidated entities during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Credit Facilities, Commercial Paper, Unsecured Term Loans and Letters of Credit

As of March 31, 2026, we had a $3.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility priced at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“SOFR”) plus 0.775% which is subject to adjustment based on the Company’s debt ratings. Our unsecured revolving credit facility matures in April 2028, and may be extended at our option, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, for two additional six months periods. The unsecured revolving credit facility includes an accordion feature that permits us to increase our aggregate borrowing capacity thereunder to up to $4.5 billion, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the receipt of additional commitments for such increase.

Our unsecured revolving credit facility imposes certain customary restrictions on us, including restrictions pertaining to: (i) liens; (ii) investments; (iii) the incurrence of additional indebtedness; (iv) mergers and dissolutions; (v) certain dividend, distribution and other payments; (vi) permitted businesses; (vii) transactions with affiliates; and (viii) the maintenance of certain consolidated total leverage, secured debt leverage, unsecured debt leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios and minimum consolidated adjusted net worth, and contains certain other customary terms and conditions.

As of March 31, 2026, our $3.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility had no borrowings outstanding and $0.8 million restricted to support outstanding letters of credit. We use our unsecured revolving credit facility to support our commercial paper program and for general corporate purposes.

Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Ventas Realty, Limited Partnership (“Ventas Realty”), may issue from time to time unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $2.0 billion. The notes are sold under customary terms in the U.S. commercial paper note market and are ranked pari passu with Ventas Realty’s other unsecured senior indebtedness. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Ventas. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had $65.0 million and no borrowings, respectively, outstanding under our commercial paper program.

As of March 31, 2026, Ventas Realty had an unsecured term loan in aggregate principal of up to $1.25 billion, consisting of a $700 million unsecured term loan and a $550 million unsecured delayed draw term loan which, as of March 31, 2026, remained undrawn. The term loan is priced at SOFR plus 0.85%, which is subject to adjustment based on Ventas Realty’s debt ratings. This term loan is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Ventas and subject to certain customary covenants and other terms and conditions. It is scheduled to mature in January 2031 and includes an accordion feature that permits Ventas Realty to increase the aggregate borrowings thereunder to up to $1.75 billion, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the receipt of additional commitments for such increase. The term loan, originally issued in June 2022, was amended in January 2026 to, among other things, extend the maturity from June 2027 to January 2031; increase the principal amount of the unsecured term loan from $500 million to $700 million, which increase was used to repay in full Ventas Realty’s $200 million unsecured term loan due February 2027; and establish the $550 million unsecured delayed draw term loan. The amended term loan was primarily accounted for as a debt modification resulting in no gain or loss.

As of March 31, 2026, we had a $100.0 million uncommitted line for standby letters of credit, which had an outstanding balance of $18.6 million. The agreement governing the line contains certain customary covenants and other terms and conditions. Under its terms, we are required to pay a fixed rate commission on each outstanding letter of credit.

Exchangeable Senior Notes

In June 2023, Ventas Realty issued $862.5 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.75% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Exchangeable Notes”) in a private placement. The Exchangeable Notes are senior, unsecured obligations of Ventas Realty and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis by Ventas. The Exchangeable Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.75% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on December 1, 2023. The Exchangeable Notes mature on June 1, 2026, unless earlier exchanged, redeemed or repurchased.

As of March 31, 2026, we had $856.1 million aggregate principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes outstanding with an effective interest rate of 4.62%, inclusive of the impact of the amortization of issuance costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recognized $8.0 million of contractual interest expense and amortization of issuance costs of $1.8 million related to the Exchangeable Notes. Unamortized deferred financing costs of $1.2 million as of March 31, 2026 were recorded as an offset to Senior notes payable and other debt on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, noteholders exchanged $6.4 million principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes pursuant to the terms of the governing indenture.

The Exchangeable Notes are currently exchangeable at an exchange rate of 18.2936 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Exchangeable Notes (equivalent to an exchange price of approximately $54.66 per share of common stock). The exchange rate is subject to adjustment, including in the event of the payment of a quarterly dividend in excess of $0.45 per share, but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. Upon exchange of the Exchangeable Notes, Ventas Realty will pay cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes to be exchanged and elected to deliver shares of common stock in respect of the remainder, if any, of its exchange obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes being exchanged. As of March 1, 2026, until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, the Exchangeable Notes are exchangeable at the option of the noteholders at any time.

We have evaluated and concluded that the exchange options embedded in the Exchangeable Notes are eligible for the entity’s own equity scope exception from ASC 815 and therefore do not need to be bifurcated. Accordingly, we record the Exchangeable Notes as liabilities (included in Senior notes payable and other debt on our Consolidated Balance Sheets).

Senior Notes

In January 2026, we repaid $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.13% Senior Notes due 2026.

Mortgages

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we refinanced a CAD $92.0 million ($67.4 million) mortgage loan with new maturity in February 2031 and repaid a mortgage with principal amount of CAD $87.1 million ($63.8 million).

The instruments governing our outstanding indebtedness contain covenants that limit our ability and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to, among other things: (i) incur debt and certain liens; (ii) make certain dividends, distributions and investments; (iii) enter into certain transactions; and/or (iv) merge, consolidate or sell certain assets. Our credit facilities do, and certain of our other indebtedness may, require us to maintain certain financial covenants pertaining to, among other things, our consolidated total leverage, secured debt, unsecured debt, fixed charge coverage and net worth.

Derivatives and Hedging

In the normal course of our business, interest rate fluctuations affect future cash flows under our variable rate debt obligations, loans receivable and marketable debt securities, and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations affect our operating results. We follow established risk management policies and procedures, including the use of derivative instruments, to mitigate the impact of these risks.

We do not use derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes, and we have a policy of entering into contracts only with major financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and other factors. When considered together with the underlying exposure that the derivative is designed to hedge, we do not expect that the use of derivatives in this manner would have any material adverse effect on our future financial condition or results of operations.

We enter into interest rate swaps in order to maintain a capital structure containing targeted amounts of fixed and variable-rate debt and manage interest rate risk. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for our fixed-rate payments. These interest rate swap agreements are used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with variable-rate debt.

Periodically, we enter into interest rate derivatives, such as treasury locks, to partially hedge the risk of changes in interest payments attributable to increases in the benchmark interest rate during the period leading up to the probable issuance of fixed-rate debt. We designate our interest rate locks as cash flow hedges. Gains and losses when we settle our interest rate locks are amortized over the life of the related debt and recorded in Interest expense in our Consolidated Statements of Income.

As of March 31, 2026, our variable rate debt obligations of $1.1 billion reflect, in part, the effect of $75.3 million notional amount of interest rate swaps with maturities in March 2027, that effectively convert fixed rate debt to variable rate debt. These interest rate swaps were not designated for hedge accounting.

As of March 31, 2026, our fixed rate debt obligations of $11.5 billion reflect, in part, the effect of $125.3 million and C$591.6 million ($425.2 million) notional amount of interest rate swaps with maturities ranging from June 2027 to April 2031, in each case, that effectively convert variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. These interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges.

2026 Activity

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, approximately $0.5 million of realized losses primarily relating to our interest rate swaps and treasury locks were reclassified into Interest expense in our Consolidated Statements of Income. Approximately $0.1 million of unrealized gains, which are included in Accumulated other comprehensive income as of March 31, 2026, are expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months.

NOTE 11—FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Overview

Accounting guidance on fair value measurements for certain financial assets and liabilities requires that financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

  • Level 1: Fair value calculated based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that we have the ability to access.

  • Level 2: Fair value calculated using inputs other than quoted prices included in level one that are directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and other inputs for the asset or liability that are observable at commonly quoted intervals, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and yield curves.

  • Level 3: Fair value calculated using unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which typically are based on our own assumptions, because there is little, if any, related market activity.

The use of different market assumptions and estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the reported estimated fair value amounts. Accordingly, the estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts we would realize in a current market exchange or transaction.

Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value

The use of different market assumptions and estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the reported estimated fair value amounts. Accordingly, the estimates presented above are not necessarily indicative of the amounts we would realize in a current market exchange.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Our derivative instrument assets as of March 31, 2026 consist primarily of interest rate swaps and the Scion Warrants. The fair value of our interest rate swaps is based on Level 2 inputs. The Scion Warrants represent a financial interest in a private entity whose fair value is based on Level 3 inputs that reflect significant assumptions including underlying enterprise value, market volatility, duration, dividend rate and risk-free rate. Changes in one or more of these inputs could significantly impact the fair value determination.

Substantially all of our derivative instrument liabilities as of March 31, 2026 consist of interest rate swaps. Their fair value is based on Level 2 inputs.

Other Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Other items measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include assets and liabilities held for sale and real estate assets that are evaluated periodically for impairment (see “Note 5 – Dispositions, Assets Held for Sale and Impairments”). We estimate the fair value of assets held for sale and any associated impairment charges based primarily on current sales price expectations, which reside within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Real estate impairment charges recorded due to our evaluation of recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable are based on company-specific inputs and our assumptions about the marketability of the properties as observable inputs are not available. As such, we have determined that these fair value measurements generally reside within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. We estimate the fair value of real estate deemed to not be recoverable using the cost or income approach and unobservable data such as net operating income and estimated capitalization and discount rates, and giving consideration to local and national industry market data including comparable sales.

NOTE 12—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, investigations, claims and other legal and regulatory proceedings arising in connection with our business. In certain circumstances, regardless of whether we are a named party in a lawsuit, investigation, claim or other legal or regulatory proceeding, we may be contractually obligated to indemnify, defend and hold harmless our managers, tenants and borrowers or other third parties against, or may otherwise be responsible for, such actions, proceedings or claims. These claims may include, among other things, professional liability and general liability claims, commercial liability claims, unfair business practices claims and employment claims, as well as regulatory proceedings and government investigations, including proceedings related to our senior housing operating portfolio, where we are typically the holder of the applicable healthcare license. These claims may not be fully insured and some may allege large damage amounts.

It is the opinion of management, that the disposition of any such lawsuits, investigations, claims and other legal and regulatory proceedings that are currently pending will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on us. However, regardless of the merits of a particular action, investigation or claim, we may be forced to expend significant financial resources to defend and resolve these matters. We are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits, investigations, claims and other legal and regulatory proceedings, and, if management’s assessment of our liability with respect thereto is incorrect, such actions, investigations and claims could have a material adverse effect on us.

From time to time, on behalf of ourselves or on behalf of our unconsolidated entities, we have agreed, and may in the future agree, to provide guarantees, indemnities or other similar contingent obligations to third parties. Such agreements may include, without limitation: (i) guarantees of all or a portion of the principal, interest and other amounts due under mortgage debt or other borrowings; (ii) customary nonrecourse carve-out guarantees provided in connection with mortgage or other borrowings; (iii) customary indemnifications of lenders for potential environmental liabilities; (iv) completion guarantees provided to lenders, tenants, ground lessors or other third parties for the completion of development and redevelopment projects; (v) guarantees of payment of contingent tax obligations to tax credit investors who have purchased historic, new market and other tax credits from us or our unconsolidated entities; (vi) guarantees of ground rent and other payment of ground rent and other obligations to ground lessors; and (vii) indemnities and other guarantees required in connection with the procurement of performance and surety bonds and standby letters of credit.

As of March 31, 2026, no triggering events relating to our guarantees, indemnities or similar contingent obligations have occurred. Accordingly, no contingent liability is recorded in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 13—INCOME TAXES

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for every year beginning with the year ended December 31, 1999. We have also elected for certain of our subsidiaries to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS” or “TRS entities”), which are subject to federal, state and foreign income taxes. All entities other than the TRS entities are collectively referred to as the “REIT” within this note. Certain REIT entities are subject to foreign income tax.

Although the TRS entities and certain other foreign entities have paid minimal federal, state and foreign income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2026, their income tax liabilities may increase in future periods as we exhaust net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards and as our operations grow. Such increases could be significant.

Our consolidated provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was a benefit of $15.9 million and a benefit of $10.6 million, respectively. The income tax benefit for three months ended March 31, 2026 is primarily due to the reversal of valuation allowances recorded against the net deferred tax assets of certain of our TRS entities, partially offset by increases in the valuation allowance for certain TRS entities during the period. The income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2025 is primarily due to the reversal of valuation allowances recorded against the net deferred tax assets of certain of our TRS entities, partially offset by increases in the valuation allowance for certain TRS entities during the period.

Each TRS is a tax paying component for purposes of classifying deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax liabilities with respect to our TRS entities totaled $26.7 million and $23.4 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and related primarily to differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of fixed and intangible assets, net of loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets with respect to our TRS entities totaled $2.7 million and $2.8 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and related primarily to loss carryforwards.

Generally, we are subject to audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the year ended December 31, 2022 and subsequent years and are subject to audit by state taxing authorities for the year ended December 31, 2021 and subsequent years. We are subject to audit generally under the statutes of limitation by the Canada Revenue Agency and provincial authorities with respect to the Canadian entities for the year ended December 31, 2021 and subsequent years. We are subject to audit in the United Kingdom generally for periods ended in and subsequent to 2024.

NOTE 14—STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Capital Stock

We have established an at-the-market offering program that provides for the sale, from time to time, of shares of our common stock, including through forward sales agreements, as described in more detail below (the "ATM Program"). In February 2026, we amended our existing ATM Program, such that the aggregate gross sales price of common stock available for issuance under the ATM Program immediately following the amendment was $2.5 billion. As of March 31, 2026, the remaining amount available under the ATM Program for future sales of common stock was $1.4 billion.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we entered into equity forward sales agreements under the ATM Program for 13.8 million shares of our common stock for gross proceeds of $1.2 billion, representing an average price of $84.62 per share. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we settled 10.6 million shares of common stock under outstanding equity forward sales agreements entered into under the ATM Program for net cash proceeds of $800.0 million.

As of March 31, 2026, we maintained unsettled equity forward sales agreements for 17.1 million shares of common stock, or approximately $1.4 billion in gross proceeds, with varying maturities through October 2027.

In April 2026, we entered into equity forward sales agreements under the ATM Program for 2.5 million shares of common stock or approximately $205.5 million in gross proceeds which remain unsettled with maturity in October 2027. As of April 28, 2026, the remaining amount available under the ATM Program for future sales of common stock was $1.2 billion, and we maintained unsettled equity forward sales agreements of 19.6 million shares of common stock, or approximately $1.6 billion in gross proceeds, with varying maturities through October 2027.

From time to time, including under our ATM Program, we may enter into equity forward sales agreements. An equity forward sales agreement enables us to secure a share price on the sale of shares of our common stock at or shortly after the time the forward sales agreement becomes effective, while postponing the receipt of proceeds from the sale of shares until a future date. Equity forward sales agreements generally have a maturity of one to two years. At any time during the term of an equity forward sales agreement, we may settle that equity forward sales agreement by delivery of physical shares of our common stock to the forward purchaser or, at our election, subject to certain exceptions, we may settle in cash or by net share settlement. The forward sales price we expect to receive upon settlement of outstanding equity forward sales agreements will be the initial forward price, net of commissions, established on or shortly after the effective date of the relevant equity forward sales agreement, subject to adjustments for accrued interest, the forward purchasers’ stock borrowing costs in excess of a certain threshold specified in the equity forward sales agreement and certain fixed price reductions for expected dividends on our common stock during the term of the equity forward sales agreement. Our unsettled equity forward sales agreements are accounted for as equity instruments. Refer to “Note 15 – Earnings Per Share.”

Net income attributable to common stockholders0.120.11
Diluted earnings per share:
Net income$0.12$0.11
Net income attributable to common stockholders0.110.10

The dilutive effect of our Exchangeable Notes is calculated using the if-converted method in accordance with ASU 2020-06. We are required, pursuant to the indenture governing the Exchangeable Notes, to settle the aggregate principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes in cash and may elect to settle any remaining exchange obligation (i.e., the stock price in excess of the exchange obligation) in cash, shares of our common stock or a combination thereof. Under the if-converted method, we include the number of shares required to satisfy the exchange obligation, assuming all the Exchangeable Notes are exchanged. The average closing price of our common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 is used as the basis for determining the dilutive effect on earnings per share.

Our unsettled equity forward sales agreements do not impact basic earnings per share. We apply the treasury stock method to our unsettled equity forward sales agreements to determine their dilutive effect, if any. See “Note 14 – Stockholders' Equity.”

NOTE 16—SEGMENT INFORMATION

As of March 31, 2026, we operated through three reportable segments: SHOP, OM&R and NNN. In our SHOP segment, we own and invest in senior housing communities and engage operators to operate those communities. In our OM&R segment, we primarily acquire, own, develop, lease and manage outpatient medical buildings and research centers. In our NNN segment, we invest in and own senior housing communities, skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”), long-term acute care facilities (“LTACs”), freestanding inpatient rehabilitation facilities (“IRFs”) and other healthcare facilities and lease the properties to tenants under triple-net or absolute-net leases that obligate the tenants to pay all property-related expenses, including maintenance, utilities, repairs, taxes, insurance and capital expenditures. Information provided for “non-segment” includes management fees and promote revenues, net of expenses related to our third-party institutional private capital management platform, income from loans and investments and corporate-level expenses not directly attributable to any of our three reportable segments. Non-segment assets consist primarily of corporate assets, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, loans receivable and investments and accounts receivable. Total assets by reportable segment is not disclosed as the CODM does not review such information to evaluate business performance and allocate resources.

Our CODM is the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Our CODM evaluates performance of the combined properties in each operating segment and determines how to allocate resources to these segments, based on NOI for each segment. Our CODM uses NOI to assess the performance of each segment and to allocate resources (including employees and financial or capital resources) primarily during the quarterly or annual business review and annual budget and forecasting process. We define NOI as total revenues, less interest and other income, property-level operating expenses and third-party capital management expenses.

Interest expense, depreciation and amortization, general, administrative and professional fees, income tax expense and other non-property-specific revenues and expenses are not allocated to individual reportable segments for purposes of assessing segment performance. There are no intersegment sales or transfers.
