Dividends
On February 3, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly common stock cash dividend of $0.305 per share, reflecting an increase from $0.30 to $0.305 per share. The common stock cash dividend will be paid on February 26, 2025 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 14, 2025.
During each of the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, the Company declared and paid common stock cash dividends of $1.20.
Issuance of Common Stock in Connection with the Merger
Pursuant to the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement, on the Closing Date, each outstanding share of Physicians Realty Trust (other than Physicians Realty Trust common shares that were canceled in accordance with the Merger Agreement) automatically converted into the right to receive 0.674 shares of the Company’s common stock. Based on the number of outstanding Physicians Realty Trust common shares as of the Closing Date, the Company issued 162 million shares of common stock. Refer to Note 3 for additional information regarding the Merger.
At-The-Market Equity Offering Program
In February 2023, in connection with the Reorganization, the Company terminated the previous at-the-market equity offering program (as amended from time to time, the “2020 ATM Program”) and established a new at-the-market equity offering program (the “2023 ATM Program” and, together with the 2020 ATM Program, the “ATM Programs”). The 2023 ATM Program was amended in March 2024 to contemplate the sale of the remaining shares of common stock pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC on February 8, 2024. The ATM Programs allow for the sale of shares of common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $1.5 billion (i) by the Company through a consortium of banks acting as sales agents or directly to the banks acting as principals or (ii) by a consortium of banks acting as forward sellers on behalf of any forward purchasers pursuant to a forward sale agreement (each, an “ATM forward contract”). The use of ATM forward contracts allows the Company to lock in a share price on the sale of shares at the time the ATM forward contract becomes effective, but defer receiving the proceeds from the sale of shares until a later date.
ATM forward contracts generally have a one- to two-year term. At any time during the term, the Company may settle a forward sale by delivery of physical shares of common stock to the forward seller or, at the Company’s election, in cash or net shares. The forward sale price the Company expects to receive upon settlement of outstanding ATM forward contracts will be the initial forward price established upon the effective date, subject to adjustments for: (i) accrued interest, (ii) the forward purchasers’ stock borrowing costs, and (iii) certain fixed price reductions during the term of the ATM forward contract.
At December 31, 2024, $1.5 billion of the Company’s common stock remained available for sale under the 2023 ATM Program.
ATM Forward Contracts
During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company utilized the forward provisions under the 2020 ATM Program to allow for the sale of an aggregate of 9.1 million shares of its common stock at an initial weighted average net price of $35.25 per share, after commissions. In December 2022, the Company settled all 9.1 million shares previously outstanding under ATM forward contracts at a weighted average net price of $34.01 per share, after commissions, resulting in net proceeds of $308 million. During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 the Company did not utilize the forward provisions under the ATM Programs.
ATM Direct Issuances
During each of the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, there were no direct issuances of shares of common stock under the ATM Programs.
Share Repurchase Programs
On August 1, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which the Company could acquire shares of its common stock in the open market up to an aggregate purchase price of $500 million (the “2022 Share Repurchase Program”). Purchases of common stock under the 2022 Share Repurchase Program could be exercised at the Company’s discretion with the timing and number of shares repurchased depending on a variety of factors, including price, corporate and regulatory requirements, and other corporate liquidity requirements and priorities. Under Maryland General Corporation Law, outstanding shares of common stock acquired by a corporation become authorized but unissued shares, which may be re-issued. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company repurchased 2.1 million shares of its common stock under the 2022 Share Repurchase Program at a weighted average price of $27.16 per share for a total of $56 million. During the year ended December 31, 2023, there were no repurchases under the 2022 Share Repurchase Program. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company repurchased 10.5 million shares of its common stock under the 2022 Share Repurchase Program at a weighted average price of $17.98 per share for a total of $188 million.
On July 24, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program (the “2024 Share Repurchase Program”) to supersede and replace the 2022 Share Repurchase Program. Upon adoption of the 2024 Share Repurchase Program, no further share repurchases may be made pursuant to the 2022 Share Repurchase Program. Under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program, the Company may acquire shares of its common stock in the open market or other similar purchase techniques (including in compliance with the safe harbor provisions of Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or pursuant to one or more plans adopted under Rule 10b5-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act), up to an aggregate purchase price of $500 million. Purchases of common stock under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program may be exercised at the Company’s discretion with the timing and number of shares repurchased depending on a variety of factors, including price, corporate and regulatory requirements, and other corporate liquidity requirements and priorities. The 2024 Share Repurchase Program expires in July 2026 and may be suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice. As of December 31, 2024, no shares have been repurchased under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program. Therefore, at December 31, 2024, $500 million of the Company’s common stock remained available for repurchase under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program.

Noncontrolling Interests
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
Arrangements with noncontrolling interest holders are assessed for appropriate balance sheet classification based on the redemption and other rights held by the noncontrolling interest holder. Certain of the Company’s noncontrolling interest holders have the ability to put their equity interests to the Company upon specified events or after the passage of a predetermined period of time (the “Option Requirements”). Each put option is payable in cash and subject to changes in redemption value in the event that the underlying property generates specified returns for the Company and meets certain promote thresholds pursuant to the respective agreements. Accordingly, the Company records redeemable noncontrolling interests outside of permanent equity and presents the redeemable noncontrolling interests at the greater of their carrying amount or redemption value at the end of each reporting period. In addition to the rights of the redeemable noncontrolling interest holders, once the Option Requirements have been met, the Company has the ability to buy out the interests of the noncontrolling interest holders. The values of the redeemable noncontrolling interests are subject to change based on the assessment of redemption value at each redemption date.
On March 1, 2024, concurrently with the consummation of the Merger, the Company assumed one redeemable noncontrolling interest, which had not yet met the conditions for redemption as of December 31, 2024. This interest will become redeemable in September 2025.
In April 2024, the Company exercised its option to buy out four redeemable noncontrolling interests that met the criteria for redemption. Accordingly, during the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company made aggregate cash payments for the total redemption value of $53 million to the related noncontrolling interest holders and acquired the redeemable noncontrolling interests associated with the entities.
Healthpeak OP
Immediately following the Reorganization, Healthpeak Properties, Inc. was the initial sole member and 100% owner of Healthpeak OP. Subsequent to the Reorganization, OP Unitholders were issued approximately 2 million OP Units during the year ended December 31, 2023, all of which were LTIP Units (as defined in Note 15). During the year ended December 31, 2024, OP Unitholders were issued approximately 2 million OP Units, all of which were LTIP Units. When certain conditions are met, the OP Unitholders have the right to require redemption of part or all of their OP Units for cash or shares of the Company’s common stock, at the Company’s option as managing member of Healthpeak OP. The per unit redemption amount is equal to either one share of the Company’s common stock or cash equal to the fair value of a share of common stock at the time of redemption. The Company classifies the OP Units in permanent equity because it may elect, in its sole discretion, to issue shares of its common stock to OP Unitholders who choose to redeem their OP Units rather than using cash. As of December 31, 2024, there were approximately 3 million OP Units outstanding and 76 thousand had met the criteria for redemption. As of December 31, 2023, there were approximately 2 million OP Units outstanding, none of which had met the criteria for redemption.
DownREITs
The non-managing member units of the Company’s DownREITs are exchangeable for an amount of cash approximating the then-current market value of shares of the Company’s common stock or, at the Company’s option, shares of the Company’s common stock (subject to certain adjustments, such as stock splits and reclassifications). Upon exchange of DownREIT units for the Company’s common stock, the carrying amount of the DownREIT units is reclassified to stockholders’ equity. At December 31, 2024, there were approximately 11 million DownREIT units (14 million shares of Healthpeak common stock are issuable upon conversion) outstanding in eight DownREIT LLCs, for all of which the Company holds a controlling interest and/or acts as the managing member. At December 31, 2024, the carrying value of the 11 million DownREIT units was $310 million. At December 31, 2023, there were approximately 5 million DownREIT units (7 million shares of Healthpeak common stock are issuable upon conversion) outstanding in seven DownREIT LLCs, for all of which the Company acts as the managing member. At December 31, 2023, the carrying value of the 5 million DownREIT units was $199 million.
