LONG BEACH, CA, August 4, 2009 – HCP (the “Company” or “we”) (NYSE:HCP) announced results for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. Funds from operations (“FFO”) applicable to common shares was $146.1 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, compared to FFO applicable to common shares of $119.1 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, in the year-ago period.

FFO applicable to common shares for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 included the offsetting impact of the following: i) impairments of $0.02 per diluted share; and ii) income of $0.02 per diluted share resulting from an adjustment to the cost allocation of certain assets acquired in 2006. FFO applicable to common shares for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 included the negative impact of $0.07 per diluted share of the following: i) impairments and merger-related charges of $0.05 per diluted share; ii) a write down in the carrying value of marketable securities of $0.01 per diluted share; and iii) an ineffectiveness charge of $0.01 per diluted share relating to the settlement of two forward-starting interest-rate swaps. FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes is helpful in evaluating the operating performance of real estate investment trusts.

Net income applicable to common shares for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 was $91.8 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, compared to net income applicable to common shares of $225.9 million, or $0.96 per diluted share, in the year-ago period. Net income applicable to common shares for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 includes gain on sales of real estate of $30.5 million, compared to gain on sales of real estate of $190.5 million in the year-ago period.

INVESTMENTS

During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, we funded $30 million, for construction and other capital projects, primarily in our life science segment.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, we sold two hospitals with an aggregate value of $46 million and recognized gains of $30.5 million, which are excluded from FFO.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, we also sold marketable debt securities of $5 million.

On August 3, 2009, we purchased a $720 million participation in first mortgage debt of HCR ManorCare at a discount for approximately $590 million. The $720 million participation bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.25% and represents 45% of the $1.6 billion most senior tranche of HCR ManorCare’s mortgage debt incurred as part of the financing for The Carlyle Group’s acquisition of Manor Care, Inc. in December 2007. The mortgage debt matures in January 2012, with a one-year extension available at the borrower’s option subject to certain conditions, and is secured by a first lien on 331 facilities located in 30 states. We obtained favorable financing to fund 72% of the purchase price, resulting in a net cash payment by HCP of $165 million.

FINANCING

On May 8, 2009, we completed a $440 million public offering of 20.7 million shares of our common stock at a price per share of $21.25. We received net proceeds of $422 million, which were used to repay all amounts of indebtedness outstanding under our bridge loan credit facility, with the remainder used for general corporate purposes.

On June 12, 2009, the Company entered into an interest rate swap contract (pay float and receive fixed) with a notional amount of $250 million that terminates in September 2011. This interest-rate swap contract reduces our net floating rate asset exposure, which increased as a result of the repayment of our floating rate bridge loan credit facility.

Our financial leverage improved to 44% at June 30, 2009 from 48% at December 31, 2008. Our adjusted fixed charge coverage for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 improved to 2.6x from 2.3x for the quarter ended June 30, 2008.

OTHER EVENTS

On June 18, 2009, we announced that the management agreements on 15 communities operated by Sunrise Senior Living, Inc. or its subsidiaries (“Sunrise”) have been terminated effective October 1, 2009, for Sunrise’s failure to achieve certain performance thresholds. The termination of the agreements does not require the payment of a termination fee by the Company or our tenants. We intend to enter into new arrangements with senior housing operators for the 15 communities, reducing the Sunrise-managed communities in the Company’s portfolio to 75 from the original 101 communities the Company acquired in the 2006 CNL Retirement Properties, Inc. transaction. We expect these arrangements to improve the operating margins of the communities in a manner similar to the Company’s successful transition of 11 former Sunrise communities to Emeritus Corporation in December 2008. On June 30, 2009, we recognized impairments of $6 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, related to intangible assets associated with 12 of the 15 communities.

On June 29, 2009, we, together with three of our tenants, filed complaints against Sunrise based on Sunrise’s defaults under management and related agreements covering 64 of the remaining 75 Sunrise-managed communities owned by the Company. The complaints allege, among other things, that Sunrise systematically breached various contractual and fiduciary duties. In addition to equitable relief and monetary damages relating to the defaults, we are seeking judicial confirmation of rights to terminate the agreements on the 64 communities.

DIVIDEND

On July 29, 2009, we announced that our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on our common stock of $0.46 per share. The dividend will be paid on August 19, 2009 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 6, 2009.

FUTURE OPERATIONS

For the full year 2009, we presently expect net income applicable to common shares to range between $0.98 and $1.04 per diluted share, FFO applicable to common shares to range between $2.13 and $2.19 per diluted share, and FFO applicable to common shares, before giving effect to impairments, to range between $2.15 and $2.21 per diluted common share. The increase to the above guidance amounts was due to our HCR ManorCare investment on August 3, 2009.

(1)    Presentation and certain computational changes have been made for the adoption of FSP EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities, to compute earnings per share and funds from operations per share under the two-class method.

 

(2)    The Company believes funds from operations applicable to common shares, diluted funds from operations applicable to common shares and basic and diluted funds from operations per common share are important supplemental measures of operating performance for a real estate investment trust. Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation (except on land), such accounting presentation implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen and fallen with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a real estate investment trust that uses historical cost accounting for depreciation could be less informative. The term funds from operations (“FFO”) was designed by the real estate investment trust industry to address this issue.

 

FFO is defined as net income applicable to common shares (computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles), excluding gains or losses from real estate dispositions, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, with adjustments for joint ventures. Adjustments for joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered an alternative to net income. The Company’s computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other real estate investment trusts that do not define the term in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts’ (“NAREIT”) definition or that have a different interpretation of the current NAREIT definition from the Company.

 

(3)    Merger-related charges in the periods ended June 30, 2008 include the amortization of fees associated with our acquisition financing for Slough Estates USA Inc. (“SEUSA”), as well as other SEUSA integration costs.

Reporting Definitions

 

Adjusted Fixed Charge Coverage. Adjusted EBITDA divided by Fixed Charges. The Company uses Adjusted Fixed Charge Coverage, a non-GAAP financial measure, as a measure of liquidity. The Company believes Adjusted Fixed Charge Coverage provides investors, particularly fixed income investors, relevant and useful information because it measures the Company’s ability to meet its interest payments on outstanding debt and pay dividends to its preferred stockholders. The Company’s various debt agreements contain covenants that require the Company to maintain ratios similar to Adjusted Fixed Charge Coverage and credit rating agencies utilize similar ratios in evaluating and determining the credit rating on certain debt instruments of the Company. However, since this ratio is derived from Adjusted EBITDA and Fixed Charges, its usefulness is limited by the same factors that limit the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA and Fixed Charges. Further, the Company’s computation of Adjusted Fixed Charge Coverage may not be comparable to similar fixed charge coverage ratios reported by other companies.

 

Consolidated Debt represents the carrying amount of bank line of credit, bridge and term loans, senior unsecured notes, mortgage debt and other debt as reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Consolidated Gross Assets represents the carrying amount of total assets, excluding investments in and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures, after adding back accumulated depreciation and amortization, as reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Consolidated Secured Debt represents mortgage debt secured by real estate as reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA represents the real estate industry’ earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), a non-GAAP financial measure, as a measure of both operating performance and liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA excluding impairments and gains or losses from real estate dispositions. The Company uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to measure both its operating performance and liquidity. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDA to provide investors relevant and useful information because it permits investors to view income from its operations on an unleveraged basis before the effects of taxes, non-cash depreciation and amortization, impairments and gains or losses from real estate dispositions. By excluding interest expense, Adjusted EBITDA allows investors to measure the Company’s operating performance independent of its capital structure and indebtedness and, therefore, allows for a more meaningful comparison of its operating performance between quarters as well as annual periods and to compare its operating performance to that of other companies, both in the real estate industry and in other industries. As a liquidity measure, the Company believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA help investors analyze the Company’s ability to meet its interest payments on outstanding debt and to make preferred dividend payments. The Company believes investors should consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, in conjunction with net income (the primary measure of the Company’s performance) and the other required GAAP measures of its performance and liquidity, to improve their understanding of the Company’s operating results and liquidity, and to make more meaningful comparisons of its performance between periods and as against other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should be used in conjunction with the Company’s required GAAP presentations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the Company’s historical cash expenditures or future cash requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments. While Adjusted EBITDA is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance and liquidity, it does not represent net income or cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP and it should not be considered as an alternative to those indicators in evaluating operating performance or liquidity. Further, the Company’s computation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies.

 

Financial Leverage represents Total Debt divided by Total Gross Assets. The Company believes that its Financial Leverage is a meaningful supplemental measure of its financial position, which enables both management and investors to analyze its leverage and to compare its leverage to that of other companies. The Company believes that the ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated gross assets is the most directly comparable U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) measure to Financial Leverage. The Company’s computation of its financial leverage may not be identical to the computations of financial leverage reported by other companies. The Company’s share of total debt is not intended to reflect its actual liability or ability to access assets should there be a default under any or all of such loans or a liquidation of the joint ventures.

 

Investment Management Platform (“IMP”) includes the following unconsolidated joint ventures: (i) HCP Life Science, (ii) HCP Ventures II, (iii) HCP Ventures III, LLC and (iv) HCP Ventures IV, LLC.

 

Total Debt represents Consolidated Debt plus the Company’s pro rata share of debt from the Investment Management Platform.

 

Total Gross Assets represents the Consolidated Gross Assets plus the Company’s pro rata share of total assets from the Investment Management Platform, after adding back accumulated depreciation and amortization.
