Health Care REIT, Inc. Reports First Quarter Results

Health Care REIT, Inc. (NYSE:HCN) today announced operating results for the company’s first quarter ended March 31, 2008. "We are off to an excellent start in 2008 and expect even greater success on the investment front than was originally anticipated,” commented George L. Chapman, chief executive officer of Health Care REIT, Inc. "We also expect a higher amount of selective asset sales during 2008, which should allow us to recycle capital and leave us less reliant on the capital markets to fund our growth. We believe that this capital redeployment strategy will continue to enhance the quality of real estate in our portfolio and has enabled us to increase our projected FFO growth this year to a range of 6 to 8 percent per share.” Recent Highlights.

As previously announced, the Board of Directors declared a dividend for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 of $0.68 per share, as compared to $0.66 per share for the same period in 2007. The dividend will be paid on May 20, 2008 and will be the company’s 148th consecutive quarterly dividend payment. Outlook for 2008. The company is increasing its investment guidance for 2008 to a range of $1.1 billion to $1.4 billion from $900 million to $1.2 billion. Acquisition guidance has been increased to a range of $700 to $900 million from $500 to $700 million of acquisitions, while development funding remains unchanged within a range of $400 to $500 million. Disposition guidance has also been increased to a range of $300 to $400 million from $100 to $200 million. Net investment guidance remains unchanged at a range of $700 million to $1.1 billion. The company is revising its 2008 earnings guidance. Normalized FFO has been increased to a range of $3.30 to $3.38 per diluted share from $3.27 to $3.37 per diluted share. Normalized FAD has been increased to a range of $3.04 to $3.12 per diluted share from $3.01 to $3.11 per diluted share. Due to an increase in projected depreciation and amortization arising from the increased acquisition guidance, net income available to common stockholders has been revised to a range of $1.50 to $1.58 per diluted share from $1.55 to $1.65 per diluted share. The company’s guidance excludes any impairments, unanticipated additions to the loan loss reserve or other additional one-time items, including any additional cash payments other than normal monthly rental payments. Please see the exhibits for a reconciliation of the outlook for net income available to common stockholders to FFO and FAD. New Supplemental Information Report Available.

The company believes that net income available to common stockholders (NICS), as defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP), is the most appropriate earnings measurement. However, the company considers funds from operations (FFO) and funds available for distribution (FAD) to be useful supplemental measures of its operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time as evidenced by the provision for depreciation. However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient. In response, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) created FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs that excludes historical cost depreciation from net income. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, means net income, computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real estate, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Normalized FFO represents FFO adjusted for unusual and non-recurring items. FAD represents FFO excluding net straight-line rental adjustments, rental income related to above/below market leases and amortization of deferred loan expenses and less cash used to fund capital expenditures, tenant improvements and lease commissions. Normalized FAD represents FAD excluding prepaid/straight-line rent cash receipts and adjusted for unusual and non-recurring items. The company’s supplemental reporting measures are financial measures that are widely used by investors, equity and debt analysts and rating agencies in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies. The company’s management uses these financial measures to facilitate internal and external comparisons to historical operating results and in making operating decisions. Additionally, they are utilized by the Board of Directors to evaluate management. The supplemental reporting measures do not represent net income or cash flow provided from operating activities as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternative measures of profitability or liquidity. Finally, the supplemental reporting measures, as defined by the company, may not be comparable to similarly entitled items reported by other real estate investment trusts or other companies. Please see the exhibits for reconciliations of the supplemental reporting measures. About Health Care REIT.
