Ventas, Inc. (NYSE: VTR) (“Ventas” or the “Company”) today
reported results for the full year and fourth quarter ended
December 31, 2024.
CEO Remarks
“Ventas delivered strong financial performance and growth in the
fourth quarter and full year 2024 as we executed on our strategy to
capture the unprecedented multiyear growth opportunity in senior
housing. Our team delivered the third consecutive year of
double-digit growth in our senior housing operating portfolio
(SHOP) and completed over two billion dollars of accretive
investments focused on senior housing that enhance our growth
profile,” said Debra A. Cafaro, Ventas Chairman and CEO.
“We expect compelling demand for senior housing to continue
because of the secular trend of a large and growing aging
population, and supply to remain muted. As a leading participant in
the longevity economy, Ventas intends to use its advantaged
platform to drive enterprise growth.
“We are introducing guidance for 2025 that builds on our
momentum and increasing our quarterly dividend to common
stockholders as a result of our strong results and positive
outlook. We are excited about the opportunities ahead to deliver
value for all our stakeholders,” Cafaro concluded.

SHOP Growth
Average occupancy and revenue growth in the SHOP same-store
portfolio exceeded expectations in 2024, contributing to same-store
cash NOI growth of 15.8% in full year 2024 vs. 2023. SHOP
same-store average occupancy grew 300 basis points year-over-year,
supporting revenue growth of 8.2%.
In the fourth quarter, the SHOP same-store portfolio
outperformed historical seasonal trends and grew average occupancy
by 310 basis points year-over-year. Ventas OI™ active asset
management initiatives, collaborative relationships with high
performing operators and the favorable backdrop of demand growth in
the 80+ population combined with limited new senior housing
deliveries contributed to this outperformance.
External Growth Focused on Senior
Housing
Ventas closed over $2 billion of investments focused primarily
on senior housing in 2024. These senior housing investments are
expected to generate attractive NOI yields, are priced below
replacement cost and offer significant multiyear NOI growth
potential, consistent with the Company’s stated investment
criteria. Ventas also has an active pipeline of attractive senior
housing investments consistent with the Company’s investment
criteria and intends to continue to expand its SHOP footprint and
increase its enterprise growth.
Balance Sheet
Ventas’s Net Debt-to-Further Adjusted EBITDA* improved to 6.0x
as of the end of the fourth quarter 2024 driven by SHOP segment
growth and equity-funded senior housing investments, representing
an improvement of 0.9x from year-end 2023. With this improvement,
the Company has now entered its long term targeted range of
5.0x-6.0x.
Ventas Declares Quarterly Dividend of
$0.48 Per Common Share, Representing 7% Increase
The Company’s Board of Directors has declared a quarterly
dividend of $0.48 per share, representing a 7% increase, on the
strength of the Company’s results and its positive outlook. The
dividend will be payable in cash on April 17, 2025 to stockholders
of record on March 31, 2025.
Investments Group
Addition
The Company is expanding its resources to capitalize on its
compelling external growth opportunities:
- Alex Russo, Managing Director in the Real Estate & Lodging
Investment Banking Group at Lazard, will join Ventas as Senior
Managing Director, Investments in the first quarter of 2025. Mr.
Russo has spent 18-years in real estate at Lazard, advising and
executing on a variety of acquisitions, dispositions, partnerships,
investments, financings and other strategic business initiatives.
He leads Lazard’s coverage of the healthcare real estate sector,
and has also focused on real estate investment managers, helping
clients grow and transform their businesses. Mr. Russo will report
to Ventas Executive Vice President, Senior Housing and Chief
Investment Officer, J. Justin Hutchens.

continue to lead Ventas’s Investment Officer Group. This group
successfully completed the Company’s 2024 investment activity of
over $2 billion. Mr. Sanders will continue to report to J. Justin
Hutchens.

Full Year 2025 Guidance
Commentary
In 2025, the Company expects to achieve significant NOI growth
in the SHOP segment and to benefit from accretive senior housing
investment activity.
The Company’s full year guidance for 2025 Attributable Net
Income per share of $0.48 at the midpoint of the range compares to
2024 Attributable Net Income of $0.19.
The Company’s full year guidance for 2025 Normalized FFO per
share of $3.41 at the midpoint of the range compares to 2024
Normalized FFO per share of $3.19. The year-over-year projected
increase of approximately 7% per share or $0.22 at the midpoint of
the 2025 guidance range is composed primarily of: (1) the benefit
of (a) NOI growth in the Company’s SHOP segment and (b) accretive
senior housing investment activity in 2024 and expected in 2025,
partially offset by (2) the impact of higher net interest expense,
foreign exchange and the dilutive impact of a higher share price.
The Company has included approximately $1 billion of 2025
investments focused on senior housing in its 2025 guidance.

Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Certain factors that could affect our future results and our
ability to achieve our stated goals include, but are not limited
to: (a) our exposure and the exposure of our managers, tenants and
borrowers to complex and evolving governmental policy, laws and
regulations, including relating to healthcare, data privacy,
cybersecurity and environmental matters, the impact of such
policies, laws and regulations on our and our managers’, tenants’
and borrowers’ business and the challenges and expense associated
with complying with such policies, laws and regulations; (b) the
potential for significant general and commercial claims, legal
actions, investigations, regulatory proceedings and enforcement
actions that could subject us or our managers, tenants or borrowers
to increased operating costs, uninsured liabilities, including
fines and other penalties, reputational harm or significant
operational limitations, including the loss or suspension of or
moratoriums on accreditations, licenses or certificates of need,
suspension of or nonpayment for new admissions, denial of
reimbursement, suspension, decertification or exclusion from
federal, state or foreign healthcare programs or the closure of
facilities or communities; (c) our reliance on third-party managers
and tenants to operate or exert substantial control over properties
they manage for, or rent from, us, which limits our control and
influence over such properties, their operations and their
performance; (d) the impact of market, macroeconomic, general
economic conditions and fiscal policy on us, our managers, tenants
and borrowers and in areas in which our properties are
geographically concentrated, including changes in or elevated
inflation, interest rates and exchange rates, labor market

of credit or capital, events that affect consumer confidence, our
occupancy rates and resident fee revenues, and the actual and
perceived state of the real estate markets and public and private
capital markets; (e) our reliance and the reliance of our managers,
tenants and borrowers on the financial, credit and capital markets
and the risk that those markets may be disrupted or become
constrained; (f) our ability, and the ability of our managers,
tenants and borrowers, to navigate the trends impacting our or
their businesses and the industries in which we or they operate,
including their ability to respond to the impact of the U.S.

programs, and the financial condition or business prospect of our
managers, tenants and borrowers; (g) our ability to achieve the
anticipated benefits and synergies from, and effectively integrate,
our completed or anticipated acquisitions and investments; (h) the
risk of bankruptcy, inability to obtain benefits from governmental
programs, insolvency or financial deterioration of our managers,
tenants borrowers and other obligors which may, among other things,
have an adverse impact on the ability of such parties to make
payments or meet their other obligations to us, which could have an
adverse impact on our results of operations and financial
condition; (i) the risk that the borrowers under our loans or other
investments default or that, to the extent we are able to foreclose
or otherwise acquire the collateral securing our loans or other
investments, we will be required to incur additional expense or
indebtedness in connection therewith, that the assets will
underperform expectations or that we may not be able to
subsequently dispose of all or part of such assets on favorable
terms; (j) our current and future amount of outstanding
indebtedness, and our ability to access capital and to incur
additional debt which is subject to our compliance with covenants
in instruments governing our and our subsidiaries’ existing
indebtedness; (k) risks related to the recognition of reserves,
allowances, credit losses or impairment charges which are
inherently uncertain and may increase or decrease in the future and
may not represent or reflect the ultimate value of, or loss that we
ultimately realize with respect to, the relevant assets, which
could have an adverse impact on our results of operations and
financial condition; (l) the risk that our management agreements or
leases are not renewed or are renewed on less favorable terms, that
our managers or tenants default under those agreements or that we
are unable to replace managers or tenants on a timely basis or on
favorable terms, if at all; (m) our ability to identify and
consummate future investments in, or dispositions of, healthcare
assets and effectively manage our portfolio opportunities and our
investments in co-investment vehicles, joint ventures and minority
interests, including our ability to dispose of such assets on
favorable terms as a result of rights of first offer or rights of
first refusal in favor of third parties; (n) risks related to

labor conditions and supply chain pressures, and risks related to
increased construction and development in markets in which our
properties are located, including adverse effect on our future
occupancy rates; (o) our ability to attract and retain talented
employees; (p) the limitations and significant requirements imposed
upon our business as a result of our status as a REIT and the
adverse consequences (including the possible loss of our status as
a REIT) that would result if we are not able to comply with such
requirements; (q) the ownership limits contained in our certificate
of incorporation with respect to our capital stock in order to
preserve our qualification as a REIT, which may delay, defer or
prevent a change of control of our company; (r) increases in our
borrowing costs as a result of becoming more leveraged, including
in connection with acquisitions or other investment activity and
rising or elevated interest rates; (s) our exposure to various
operational risks, liabilities and claims from our operating
assets; (t) our dependency on a limited number of managers and
tenants for a significant portion of our revenues and operating
income; (u) our exposure to particular risks due to our specific
asset classes and operating markets, such as adverse changes
affecting our specific asset classes and the healthcare real estate
sector, the competitiveness or financial viability of hospitals on

uses of some properties we own that are subject to ground lease,
air rights or other restrictive agreements; (v) our ability to
maintain a positive reputation for quality and service with our key
stakeholders; (w) the availability, adequacy and pricing of
insurance coverage provided by our policies and policies maintained

confidential or personal information or damage our business
relationships and reputation; (z) the failure to maintain effective

operations and financial condition; (aa) the impact of merger,
acquisition and investment activity in the healthcare industry or
otherwise affecting our managers, tenants or borrowers; (bb)

______________________________
n/m - Not meaningful
(1) For the year ended December 31, 2024,
primarily related to shareholder relations matters and certain
legal matters. For the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily
related to gain on foreclosure of real estate, payment obligation
arising in connection with sale of real estate, and certain legal
matters.
Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly
assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably
over time. However, since real estate values historically have
risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors
deem presentations of operating results for real estate companies
that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by
themselves. For that reason, the Company considers Funds From
Operations attributable to common stockholders (“FFO”) and
Normalized FFO attributable to common stockholders (“Normalized
FFO”) to be appropriate supplemental measures of operating
performance of an equity REIT. The Company believes that the
presentation of FFO, combined with the presentation of required
GAAP financial measures, has improved the understanding of
operating results of REITs among the investing public and has
helped make comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful.
Management generally considers FFO to be a useful measure for
understanding and comparing our operating results because, by
excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously
depreciated operating real estate assets, impairment losses on
depreciable real estate and real estate asset depreciation and
amortization (which can differ across owners of similar assets in
similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful
life estimates), FFO can help investors compare the operating
performance of a company’s real estate across reporting periods and
to the operating performance of other companies. The Company
believes that Normalized FFO is useful because it allows investors,
analysts and Company management to compare the Company’s operating
performance to the operating performance of other real estate
companies across periods on a consistent basis without having to
account for differences caused by non-recurring items and other
non-operational events such as transactions and litigation. In some
cases, the Company provides information about identified non-cash
components of FFO and Normalized FFO because it allows investors,
analysts and our management to assess the impact of those items on
our financial results.
Nareit Funds From Operations Attributable to Common
Stockholders (“Nareit FFO”)
The Company uses the National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts (“Nareit”) definition of FFO. Nareit defines FFO
as net income attributable to common stockholders (computed in
accordance with GAAP) excluding gains (or losses) from sales of
real estate property, including gain (or loss) on re-measurement of
equity method investments and impairment write-downs of depreciable
real estate, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and
after adjustments for unconsolidated entities and noncontrolling
interests. Adjustments for unconsolidated entities and
noncontrolling interests will be calculated to reflect FFO on the
same basis.
Normalized FFO Attributable to Common Stockholders
(“Normalized FFO”)
The Company defines Normalized FFO as Nareit FFO excluding the
following income and expense items, without duplication: (a) gains
and losses on derivatives, net and changes in the fair value of
financial instruments; (b) the non-cash impact of income tax
benefits or expenses; (c) gains and losses on extinguishment of
debt, net including the write-off of unamortized deferred financing
fees or additional costs, expenses, discounts, make-whole payments,
penalties or premiums incurred as a result of early retirement or
payment of our debt; (d) transaction, transition and restructuring
costs; (e) amortization of other intangibles; (f) the non-cash
impact of changes to our executive equity compensation plan; (g)
net expenses or recoveries related to significant disruptive
events; (h) the impact of expenses related to asset impairment and
valuation allowances; (i) non-cash charges related to leases; (j)
the financial impact of contingent consideration; (k) gains and
losses on non-real estate dispositions and other normalizing items
related to noncontrolling interests and unconsolidated entities;
and (l) other items set forth in the Normalized FFO reconciliation
included herein.
Nareit FFO and Normalized FFO presented herein may not be
comparable to those presented by other real estate companies due to
the fact that not all real estate companies use the same
definitions. Nareit FFO and Normalized FFO should not be considered
as alternatives to net income attributable to common stockholders
(determined in accordance with GAAP) as indicators of the Company’s
financial performance or as alternatives to cash flow from
operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as
measures of the Company’s liquidity, nor are they necessarily
indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company’s
needs. The Company believes that in order to facilitate a clear
understanding of the consolidated historical operating results of
the Company, Nareit FFO and Normalized FFO should be examined in
conjunction with net income attributable to common stockholders as
presented elsewhere herein.

For the year ended December 31, 2024,
primarily related to shareholder relations matters and certain
legal matters.
The Company believes that Net debt and Adjusted Pro Forma EBITDA
are useful to investors, analysts and Company management because
they allow the comparison of the Company’s credit strength between
periods and to other real estate companies without the effect of
items that by their nature are not comparable from period to
period.
Adjusted EBITDA
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as consolidated earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (including
non-cash stock-based compensation expense, asset impairment and
valuation allowances), excluding (a) gains or losses on
extinguishment of debt; (b) transaction, transition and
restructuring costs; (c) noncontrolling interests’ share of
adjusted EBITDA; (d) net gains or losses on real estate activity;
(e) gains or losses on re-measurement of equity interest upon
acquisition; (f) unrealized foreign currency gains or losses; (g)
gains or losses on derivatives, net and changes in the fair value
of financial instruments; (h) net expenses or recoveries related to
significant disruptive events; and (i) non-cash charges related to
leases, and including (x) Ventas’ share of adjusted EBITDA from
unconsolidated entities and (y) the impact of other items set forth
in the Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation included herein.
Adjusted Pro Forma EBITDA
Adjusted Pro Forma EBITDA considers the pro forma effect on
Adjusted EBITDA of transactions and events that were completed
during the period, as if the transaction or event had been
consummated at the beginning of the relevant period and considers
any other incremental items set forth in the Adjusted Pro Forma
EBITDA reconciliation included herein.
The Company considers NOI and Cash NOI as important supplemental
measures because they allow investors, analysts and the Company’s
management to assess its unlevered property-level operating results
and to compare its operating results with those of other real
estate companies and between periods on a consistent basis.
NOI
The Company defines NOI as total revenues, less interest and
other income, property-level operating expenses and third-party
capital management expenses.
Cash NOI
The Company defines Cash NOI as NOI for its reportable business
segments (i.e., SHOP, OM&R and NNN), determined on a Constant
Currency basis, excluding the impact of, without duplication (i)
non-cash items such as straight-line rent and the amortization of
lease intangibles, (ii) sold assets, assets held for sale,
development properties not yet operational and land parcels and
(iii) other items set forth in the Cash NOI reconciliation included
herein. In certain cases, results may be adjusted to reflect the
receipt of cash payments, fees, and other consideration that is not
fully recognized as NOI in the period.
Same-Store
The Company defines same-store as properties owned, consolidated
and operational for the full period in both comparison periods and
that are not otherwise excluded; provided, however, that the
Company may include selected properties that otherwise meet the
same-store criteria if they are included in substantially all of,
but not a full, period for one or both of the comparison periods,
and in the Company’s judgment such inclusion provides a more
meaningful presentation of its segment performance.
Newly acquired development properties and recently developed or
redeveloped properties in the Company’s SHOP reportable business
segment will be included in same-store once they are stabilized for
the full period in both periods presented. These properties are
considered stabilized upon the earlier of (a) the achievement of
80% sustained occupancy or (b) 24 months from the date of
acquisition or substantial completion of work. Recently developed
or redeveloped properties in the Company’s OM&R and NNN
reportable business segments will be included in same-store once
substantial completion of work has occurred for the full period in
both periods presented. Our SHOP and NNN that have undergone
operator or business model transitions will be included in
same-store once operating under consistent operating structures for
the full period in both periods presented.
Properties are excluded from same-store if they are: (i) sold,
classified as held for sale or properties whose operations were
classified as discontinued operations in accordance with GAAP; (ii)
impacted by significant disruptive events such as flood or fire;
(iii) for SHOP, those properties that are currently undergoing a
significant disruptive redevelopment; (iv) for OM&R and NNN
reportable business segments, those properties for which management
has an intention to institute, or has instituted, a redevelopment
plan because the properties may require major property-level
expenditures to maximize value, increase NOI, or maintain a
market-competitive position and/or achieve property stabilization,
most commonly as the result of an expected or actual material
change in occupancy or NOI; or (v) for SHOP and NNN reportable
business segments, those properties that are scheduled to undergo
operator or business model transitions, or have transitioned
operators or business models after the start of the prior
comparison period.
Constant Currency
To eliminate the impact of exchange rate movements, all
portfolio performance-based disclosures assume constant exchange
rates across comparable periods, using the following methodology:
the current period’s results are shown in actual reported USD,
while prior comparison period’s results are adjusted and converted
to USD based on the average monthly exchange rate for the current
period.
