Health Care REIT, Inc.
Reports Fourth Quarter and Year End 2009 Results

Toledo, Ohio, February 24, 2010 Health Care REIT, Inc. (NYSE:HCN) today announced operating results for the company’s fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2009.

“This was an unprecedented year for repositioning the company as a whole,” commented George L. Chapman, chairman, CEO and president of Health Care REIT, Inc. “During a difficult economic and capital market environment, we enhanced the portfolio, further strengthened our balance sheet and broadened our team. We delivered over $700 million of high quality development projects while at the same time disposed of non-core assets. The $328 million in disposition proceeds, together with nearly $1 billion of incremental capital raised, funded our investments and allowed us to reduce debt. Throughout 2009, we remained focused on maintaining our operator relationships while exploring new opportunities to prepare the company for its next phase of growth.

“To that end we’ve been very active early in 2010. We expect to complete over $568 million of new investments by April, including a portfolio of medical office buildings leased to Aurora Health Care, a portfolio of senior housing assets with Capital Senior Living, and a life sciences joint venture with Forest City Enterprises that will further diversify our asset base and expand our offerings to our academic medical center clients. We remain optimistic that we will continue to see additional high quality investment opportunities throughout the remainder of the year.”

• Completed 4Q09 and 2009 gross new investments totaling $208.9 million and $716.6 million, respectively

Investments Subsequent to Year End.

• In February, the company completed the acquisition of a portfolio of 17 medical office buildings located in Wisconsin totaling 1.15 million square feet through a joint venture with Hammes Company. The company’s $192 million investment includes the assumption of $106 million in secured debt at an average rate of 7.35%. The assets will be 100% master leased to Aurora Health Care, an investment grade rated, non-profit health system based in Wisconsin. The initial cash yield to Health Care REIT is 9.1% and the leases have an average remaining term of 13 years.

• As previously announced in February, the company formed a $668 million joint venture with Forest City Enterprises (NYSE:FCE.A and FCE.B). The company acquired a 49% interest in a seven-building life sciences campus with 1.2 million square feet located in University Park in Cambridge, MA. The value of the company’s investment is $327 million. The company invested $170 million of cash and the joint venture assumed $320 million of non-recourse secured debt with a weighted average interest rate of 7.1%. Projected 2010 cash net operating income for the portfolio is approximately $51 million.

• The company anticipates completing an acquisition of a portfolio of five assisted living buildings located in Nebraska and Iowa totaling 295 units prior to quarter end. The company’s $49 million investment will include the assumption of $11 million in secured debt at an average rate of 6.14%. The assets will be leased to Capital Senior Living Corporation with an initial term of 15 years and an initial yield of 8.25%.

Outlook for 2010. The company is introducing its 2010 guidance and expects to report net income attributable to common stockholders in a range of $1.43 to $1.58 per diluted share; normalized FFO in a range of $3.10 to $3.25 per diluted share; and normalized FAD in a range of $2.87 to $3.02 per diluted share.

In preparing its guidance, the company made the following assumptions:

• Investments: Including the first quarter 2010 investments described above, the company expects to complete $1.0 to $1.2 billion of gross investments comprised of new investments totaling $700 to $800 million and funded new development of $300 to $400 million. New investments are expected to generate initial yields of 8% to 8.5%. Development will be capitalized at the company’s average cost of debt (approximately 6.25%) and recorded as a reduction in interest expense until completion. The company also expects to complete approximately $300 million of dispositions at average yields of 11%, resulting in net new investments of $700 to $900 million.

• Development conversions: The company expects development conversions of approximately $449 million heavily weighted toward the first half of the year. These investments are currently expected to generate initial yields of approximately 8.7% upon conversion based on in-place contracts as of December 31, 2009.

• Capital: The company expects to raise $85 million of secured debt through HUD at approximately 5% to 5.5% during the first half of 2010. Additionally, the company expects to raise approximately $60 million under its dividend reinvestment plan during the course of 2010.

• G&A Expenses: The company expects general and administrative expenses of approximately $50 million for 2010. The G&A forecast includes $3.0 million of anticipated expensing of accelerated stock-based compensation in 1Q10 but excludes $2.6 million in expenses relating to a one-time performance-based stock award in January.

The company’s guidance excludes any additional capital transactions, 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 normalized FFO and FAD.

Supplemental Reporting Measures. The company believes that net income attributable 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, amortization related to above/below market leases and amortization of non-cash interest expenses and less cash used to fund capital expenditures, tenant improvements and lease commissions at medical office buildings. 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 and similarly entitled financial measures are widely used by investors and equity analysts in the valuation, comparison 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.
