FOURTH QUARTER COMPARISON

FULL YEAR 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 "December 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

The table below outlines the year-over-year three-month and full-year Merger-Combined SS Cash (Adjusted) NOI growth.

DIVIDEND

On February 3, 2025, Healthpeak's Board of Directors declared a 1.7% increase in the Company's quarterly cash dividend on its common stock, from $0.30 per share to $0.305 per share. On an annualized basis, the first quarter dividend represents a distribution of $1.22 per common share.

The first quarter dividend is payable on February 26, 2025, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 14, 2025.

TRANSITION TO A MONTHLY DIVIDEND

Beginning April 2025, Healthpeak’s Board of Directors is expected to authorize a monthly dividend in the amount of approximately $0.10167 per share (or $0.305 per share for the quarter). The change from a quarterly dividend to a monthly dividend provides investors with reliable monthly payments while more closely aligning with the timing of the Company's rental receipts. Future dividends are at the discretion of Healthpeak’s Board of Directors.

PHYSICIANS REALTY TRUST MERGER INTEGRATION

During 2024, the company completed internalization of property management across 14 markets totaling over 19 million square feet, bringing in-house over 100 property management employees. Healthpeak now internally property manages approximately 24 million square feet with additional markets planned for 2025 and beyond.

Healthpeak achieved approximately $50 million of merger-related synergies during 2024, exceeding the mid-point of original 2024 synergy guidance by $10 million.

LIFE SCIENCE LEASING UPDATE

During the fourth quarter 2024, Healthpeak executed lab lease agreements totaling 652,000 square feet, bringing full year 2024 lease executions to 2.1 million square feet.

Highlights of the fourth quarter leasing activity includes:

• 130,000 square feet of renewal leasing in Torrey Pines at a blended positive 45% cash releasing spread

• 84,000 square feet in west Sorrento Mesa, including converting the previously disclosed 33,000 square foot LOI at Directors Place into a signed new lease

• New lease executions during the fourth quarter included 268,000 square feet of previously disclosed activity at the Portside and Vantage campuses in South San Francisco

Subsequent to the fourth quarter, Healthpeak converted the previously disclosed 33,000 square foot LOI at Gateway into a signed new lease.
