BROOKDALE TRANSACTIONS AND OTHER DISPOSITIONS & TRANSITIONS

BROOKDALE ASSET SALES & TRANSITIONS

During the fourth quarter, we transitioned seven of the eight previously announced expiring Brookdale triple-net leases to RIDEA structures; four remain with Brookdale and three were transferred to Sonata Senior Living.

In January 2017, we completed the previously announced sale of a 40% interest in our RIDEA II senior housing joint venture and the related financing of the venture, generating $480 million of proceeds which were used to pay down our revolving credit facility.

Our previously disclosed transaction to sell 64 communities triple-net leased to Brookdale for $1.125 billion is scheduled to close in the first quarter of 2017. In addition, we continue to market an additional 25 communities triple-net leased to Brookdale and expect to sell or transition these assets during 2017.

Combined, these transactions reduce Brookdale concentration while improving lease coverage and strengthening our balance sheet and credit profile.

OTHER DISPOSITIONS & TRANSITIONS

Dispositions

During the fourth quarter, we completed $472 million of dispositions, bringing our year-to-date total dispositions to $770 million. Significant transactions in the quarter included:

  • As previously disclosed, in November, we sold four life science facilities in South San Francisco, CA encompassing 457,000 sq. ft. for $311 million to the current tenant.
  • As previously disclosed, in October, we sold seven of ten properties subject to a master lease to the current operator for an aggregate purchase price of $88 million. Concurrently, we modified the in-place master lease to transition the operations of the remaining three properties to a new regional operator.

In January 2017, we sold four life science facilities in Salt Lake City, UT encompassing 324,000 sq. ft. for $76 million to the current tenant.

Transitions

  • In October, we transitioned four triple-net leased assets to RIDEA structures, three managed by Elmcroft Senior Living and one managed by Frontier Management.

INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

During the fourth quarter, we completed $345 million of acquisitions and loan fundings, bringing our year-to-date total acquisitions and loan fundings to $723 million. Significant transactions in the quarter included:

  • In November, we entered into agreements with Maria Mallaband Care Group ("Maria Mallaband") to acquire a portfolio of predominantly private pay prime care homes located in London/South-East England for $131 million (£105 million). In mid-2017, through the exercise of a call option, we intend to convert our bridge loan provided to Maria Mallaband in November into fee ownership and enter into a Master Lease with Maria Mallaband.
  • In December, we acquired a 10-asset portfolio of MOBs, including nine on-campus, leased to affiliates of Community Health Systems for an aggregate purchase price of $163 million. The nine on-campus MOBs are affiliated with seven hospitals, each of which is a leader in its respective market.

BALANCE SHEET AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES

Repaid $1.7 billion of debt during the fourth quarter and an additional $440 million through February 13, 2017, using proceeds generated from QCP financing, RIDEA II transaction and other dispositions. We remain on track with our previously disclosed deleveraging plan and continue to target net debt to EBITDA in the low to mid six-times range and a target financial leverage in the 43% to 44% range by the end of 2017.

  • In November, we repaid $500 million of 6.0% senior notes scheduled to mature in January 2017 and $600 million of 6.7% senior notes scheduled to mature in January 2018. In addition, during the fourth quarter we paid down $454 million on our revolving credit facility and $135 million of mortgage debt with maturity dates ranging from the fourth quarter of 2016 to 2018.
  • In January, we paid down $440 million on our revolving credit facility primarily using proceeds from our RIDEA II joint venture disposition.

As of February 13, 2017, we had $1.6 billion of liquidity from a combination of cash and availability under our credit facility.

In October, S&P reaffirmed our BBB credit rating, while Fitch reaffirmed our BBB credit rating and improved our outlook to stable.

LIFE SCIENCE AND MEDICAL OFFICE LEASING

During the fourth quarter, we completed 1.1 million sq. ft. of leasing in our life science and medical office portfolios, consisting of 450,000 sq. ft. of new leases and 668,000 sq. ft. of renewals.

Significant leasing transactions were primarily in our life science portfolio, including a 10-year lease with Five Prime Therapeutics, Inc., a biotechnology company, for 115,000 sq. ft. at Phase II of The Cove, projected to commence in January 2018. This brings Phases I and II to 86% leased.

We commenced the $211 million development of Phase III, which adds two Class A buildings representing up to 336,000 sq. ft., and expect it to be delivered by the fourth quarter of 2018. Visit our website for additional information, including a link to view our development progress at The Cove, at www.hcpi.com/portfolio-diversification/life-science.

HCP has received a Leader in the Light award eight of the past ten years for producing significant, measurable results through our sustainability programs.

FULL YEAR 2017 GUIDANCE

For full year 2017, we expect: EPS to range between $1.32 and $1.38; FFO per share to range between $1.88 and $1.94; and FFO as adjusted per share to range between $1.89 and $1.95. In addition, we expect 2017 SPP Cash NOI to increase between 2.5% and 3.5%. These estimates do not reflect the potential impact from unannounced future transactions other than capital recycling activities.

(1)

The 2016 SHOP SPP Cash NOI growth rate was favorably impacted by 240 basis points due to year-end true-ups of group purchase rebates. The higher 2016 jumping-off point from these rebates contributed to a 200 basis point lower 2017 SHOP SPP Cash NOI growth rate versus what was provided in our November 1st preliminary Outlook. However, of note, the 2017 contribution from SHOP SPP Cash NOI is in line with our November 1st preliminary Outlook.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

"Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: The statements contained in this release which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements include, among other things, (i) all statements under the heading "Full Year 2017 Guidance," including without limitation with respect to expected EPS, FFO per share, FFO as adjusted per share, Comparable FFO per share, SPP Cash NOI and SPP NOI projections, and other financial projections and assumptions, including those in the "Projected Future Operations" and "Projected SPP NOI and SPP Cash NOI" sections of this release, as well as comparable statements included in other sections of this release; (ii) statements regarding the payment of the quarterly cash dividend; and (iii) statements regarding timing, outcomes and other details relating to the pending or contemplated acquisitions, dispositions, developments, joint venture transactions, capital recycling and financing activities, and other transactions discussed in this release, including without limitation those described under the heading "Strategic Brookdale Transactions and Other Dispositions." These statements are made as of the date hereof, are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors—many of which are out of HCP's and its management's control and difficult to forecast—that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: our reliance on a concentration of a small number of tenants and operators for a significant percentage of our revenues, with our concentration in Brookdale increasing as a result of the consummation of the spin-off of QCP on October 31, 2016; the financial condition of our existing and future tenants, operators and borrowers, including potential bankruptcies and downturns in their businesses, and their legal and regulatory proceedings, which results in uncertainties regarding our ability to continue to realize the full benefit of such tenants' and operators' leases and borrowers' loans; the ability of our existing and future tenants, operators and borrowers to conduct their respective businesses in a manner sufficient to maintain or increase their revenues and to generate sufficient income to make rent and loan payments to us and our ability to recover investments made, if applicable, in their operations; competition for tenants and operators, including with respect to new leases and mortgages and the renewal or rollover of existing leases; our concentration in the healthcare property sector, particularly in life sciences, medical office buildings and hospitals, which makes our profitability more vulnerable to a downturn in a specific sector than if we were investing in multiple industries; availability of suitable properties to acquire at favorable prices, the competition for the acquisition and financing of those properties, and the costs of associated property development; our ability to negotiate the same or better terms with new tenants or operators if existing leases are not renewed or we exercise our right to foreclose on loan collateral or replace an existing tenant or operator upon default; the risks associated with our investments in joint ventures and unconsolidated entities, including our lack of sole decision making authority and our reliance on our partners' financial condition and continued cooperation; our ability to achieve the benefits of acquisitions and other investments, including those discussed above, within expected time frames or at all, or within expected cost projections; operational risks associated with third party management contracts, including the additional regulation and liabilities of our RIDEA lease structures; the potential impact on us and our tenants, operators and borrowers from current and future litigation matters, including the possibility of larger than expected litigation costs, adverse results and related developments; the effect on our tenants and operators of legislation, executive orders and other legal requirements, including the Affordable Care Act and licensure, certification and inspection requirements, as well as laws addressing entitlement programs and related services, including Medicare and Medicaid, which may result in future reductions in reimbursements; changes in federal, state or local laws and regulations, including those affecting the healthcare industry that affect our costs of compliance or increase the costs, or otherwise affect the operations, of our tenants and operators; volatility or uncertainty in the capital markets, the availability and cost of capital as impacted by interest rates, changes in our credit ratings, and the value of our common stock, and other conditions that may adversely impact our ability to fund our obligations or consummate transactions, or reduce the earnings from potential transactions; changes in global, national and local economic or other conditions, including currency exchange rates; our ability to manage our indebtedness level and changes in the terms of such indebtedness; competition for skilled management and other key personnel; the ability to maintain our qualification as a real estate investment trust; and other risks and uncertainties described from time to time in HCP's Securities and Exchange Commission filings. The Company cautions investors not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. HCP assumes no, and hereby disclaims any, obligation to update any of the foregoing or any other forward-looking statements as a result of new information or new or future developments, except as otherwise required by law.

(2)

Other depreciation and amortization includes DFL depreciation and lease incentive amortization (reduction of straight-line rents) for the consideration given to terminate the 30 purchase options on the 153-property amended lease portfolio in the 2014 Brookdale transaction. Beginning January 2016, we changed our accounting treatment for our previous HCRMC DFL investments to recognize rental income on a cash basis and no longer recognize non-cash depreciation.

(3)

Represents income tax expense associated with state built-in gain tax payable upon the disposition of specific real estate assets, of which $47 million relates to our previous HCRMC real estate portfolio. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(4)

For the three months ended December 31, 2015, other impairments, net include: (i) $817 million related to our previous HCRMC DFL investments and (ii) $19 million related to our previous equity investment in HCRMC, partially offset by an impairment recovery of $6 million related to a loan payoff. For the year ended December 31, 2015, other impairments, net include: (i) $1.3 billion related to our previous HCRMC DFL investments, (ii) $112 million related to our Four Seasons Notes and (iii) $46 million related to our previous equity investment in HCRMC, partially offset by an impairment recovery of $6 million related to a loan payoff.

(5)

Represents penalties of $46 million from the prepayment of $1.1 billion of senior unsecured notes and $108 million of mortgage debt using proceeds from the QCP spin-off.

(6)

Severance-related charges for the year ended December 31, 2016 primarily relate to the departure of our former President and Chief Executive Officer. Severance-related charges for the year ended December 31, 2015 relate to the departure of our former Executive Vice President and Chief Investment Officer.

(7)

Represents FFO as adjusted excluding FFO as adjusted from QCP and interest expense related to debt repaid using proceeds from the spin-off, assuming these transactions occurred at the beginning of the period presented. Comparable FFO as adjusted allows management to evaluate the performance of our remaining real estate portfolio following the completion of the QCP spin-off.

(2)

Excludes $7 million primarily related to the acceleration of deferred compensation for restricted stock units that vested upon the departure of HCP's former President and Chief Executive Officer, which is included in the severance-related charges for the year ended December 31, 2016. Excludes $3 million related to the acceleration of deferred compensation for restricted stock units and stock options that vested upon the departure of HCP's former Executive Vice President and Chief Investment Officer, which is included in the severance-related charges for the year ended December 31, 2015.

(3)

For the three months and year ended December 31, 2015, DFL non-cash interest reflects an elimination of $14 million and $58 million, respectively. Our previous equity investment in HCRMC was accounted for using the equity method, which required an elimination of DFL income that was proportional to our ownership in HCRMC. Further, our share of earnings from HCRMC (equity income) increased for the corresponding elimination of related lease expense recognized at the HCRMC entity level, which we presented as a non-cash joint venture FAD adjustment. Beginning January 2016, as a result of placing our previous equity investment in HCRMC on a cash basis, we no longer eliminated our proportional ownership share of income from DFLs to equity income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures.

(4)

Represents our 49% share of non-refundable entrance fees included in FAD as the fees are collected by our CCRC JV.

Represents rental and related revenues, tenant recoveries, resident fees and services, and income from DFLs, less property level operating expenses, including our share of unconsolidated joint ventures.

(3)

Represents straight-line rents, DFL non-cash interest, amortization of market lease intangibles, net and lease termination fees.

(4)

Represents non-SPP NOI and non-cash adjustments to SPP NOI.

(5)

Represents interest income, gain on sales of real estate, other income, net, income taxes and equity income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures, excluding NOI.

(6)

Represents interest expense, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, acquisition and pursuit costs, and loss on debt extinguishments.

(7)

The 2016 SHOP SPP Cash NOI growth rate was favorably impacted by 240 basis points due to year-end true-ups of group purchase rebates. The higher 2016 jumping-off point from these rebates contributed to a 200 basis point lower 2017 SHOP SPP Cash NOI growth rate versus what was provided in our November 1st preliminary Outlook. However, of note, the 2017 contribution from SHOP SPP Cash NOI is in line with our November 1st preliminary Outlook.
