Munger and provide direct financial recognition to front-line staff at our best performing seniors housing communitiesS&P Global Ratings ("S&P") and Moody's Investor Services, Inc. ("Moody's") raised their credit ratings related to Welltower to "A-" with a stable outlook and to "A3" with a stable outlook, respectivelyThe Board of Directors approved a 10.4% increase in the quarterly dividend per share, reflecting solid financial performance and the Board's confidence in the durability of outsized levels of cash flow growth. The dividend is further supported by a low payout ratio and low-levered balance sheet2025 Annual Capital Activity and LiquidityLiquidity Update Net debt to consolidated enterprise value decreased to 10.0% as of December 31, 2025 from 12.9% as of December 31, 2024. We sourced over $23 billion of attractively priced capital, including the issuance of senior unsecured notes, the assumption of below-market debt, equity issuances and proceeds from dispositions and loan repayments to fund accretive capital deployment opportunities.Credit Rating On March 31, 2025 S&P increased our credit rating to "A-" with a stable outlook and Moody's increased our credit rating to "A3" with a stable outlook, resulting in improved pricing across our term loans. S&P cited a continued benefit from robust industry tailwinds and the material strengthening of our balance sheet as drivers of the ratings upgrade. S&P also stated that it expects strong operating performance to drive additional improvement to credit metrics over the next two years, driven by beneficial industry supply and demand dynamics along with, as S&P noted, our superior operating platform, providing an expected competitive advantage relative to peers. Additionally, Moody's highlighted our improvement in leverage over the past year, partially driven by strong revenue and earnings growth. Moody's expects benefits from an acceleration in the growth of the aging population and an expansion in our addressable market, to lead to meeting or exceeding growth guidance and further strengthening our financial metrics.Unsecured Senior Note Activity In June 2025, we repaid our $1.25 billion 4.0% senior unsecured notes at maturity and completed the issuance of $600 million of 4.5% senior unsecured notes due 2030 and $650 million of 5.125% senior unsecured notes due 2035. We completed a follow-on issuance in August 2025 of $400 million of 4.50% senior unsecured notes due 2030 and $600 million of 5.125% senior unsecured notes due 2035. These notes are fungible with and form a single series with the notes of the applicable series issued in June 2025.Fourth Quarter Investment ActivityIn the fourth quarter, we completed $13.9 billion of pro rata gross investments, which includes $1.2 billion in loan funding and $112 million in development funding. Additionally, we completed pro rata property dispositions of $6.1 billion and loan repayments of $1.4 billion, representing a volume and pace exceeding our prior expectations. We completed and placed into service five development projects, including partial conversions and expansions, for an aggregate pro rata investment amount of $173 million.Barchester Acquisition In October 2025, we acquired a real estate portfolio in the U.K. for approximately £5.2 billion operated by Barchester. The portfolio is comprised of 111 communities managed by Barchester in a RIDEA structure, 150 communities subject to a long-term triple-net lease and 21 ongoing developments which will also be managed in a RIDEA structure following development conversion. The operating portfolio, comprised of both stabilized and lease up properties, is positioned for significant future growth with blended portfolio occupancy in the high 70%s. Moreover, the triple-net lease is structured with 3.5% annual escalators and a coverage-based rent reset every five years at our election. Overall, the acquisition is underwritten to achieve an unlevered IRR in the low-double-digit range. As part of the transaction, we have formed an exclusive long-term partnership with Barchester.HC-One Group Acquisition and Loan Payoff In October 2025, we acquired 100% of the equity ownership of the portfolio in the U.K. operated by HC-One for £1.2 billion, creating a long duration, growing cash flow stream. In conjunction with the transaction, our existing £660 million loan was repaid.OM Portfolio Disposition We previously entered into a definitive agreement to divest an 18 million square foot OM portfolio in a transaction valued at approximately $7.2 billion. The portfolio is expected to be sold in multiple tranches through mid-2026, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions. During the fourth quarter, we completed the sale of 241 properties for pro rata proceeds of $5.2 billion, a pace exceeding our prior expectations, and resulting in a gain of $881 million.Disposition ActivityAs of December 31, 2025, total 2025 and 2026 disposition activity, inclusive of closed amounts and guidance, is expected to be $11.8 billion as compared to $9.8 billion as of September 30, 2025.2025 Disposition Activity As of September 30, 2025, we had completed $0.8 billion of dispositions year-to-date and anticipated an additional $9.0 billion of dispositions over the subsequent 12 months, consisting predominantly of $7.2 billion of OM property sales and $1.8 billion of loan repayments. Therefore, as of September 30, 2025, total disposition volume closed year-to-date and anticipated to close totaled $9.8 billion. In addition to the $9.8 billion of dispositions closed year-to-date or anticipated to close as of September 30, 2025, during the fourth quarter we entered into an agreement to sell $1.3 billion as part of our Integra joint venture.The volume and pace of our disposition activity in the fourth quarter 2025 exceeded our prior expectations with $7.5 billion of completed sales:$5.2 billion of OM sales, surpassing our initial expectations for the quarter$1.4 billion of loan repayments, also representing a pace ahead of our initial expectations$0.8 billion of skilled nursing properties as part of our Integra joint venture, which had not previously been contemplated in our disposition guidance as of September 30, 2025Total dispositions for the full year 2025 totaled $8.2 billion.2026 Disposition Activity For 2026, we anticipate approximately $3.5 billion of total dispositions, comprised of previously announced deals and incremental disposition activity, with sales weighted towards the first quarter of the year, including $1.9 billion of previously announced OM sales, $0.3 billion of newly announced OM sales, $0.7 billion of loan repayments and an additional $0.5 billion of Integra portfolio sales, as mentioned above.Notable Portfolio Activity Completed or Announced During 2025During 2025, we completed $11 billion of pro rata net investments, excluding development funding, comprised of high-quality seniors housing communities across the U.S. and U.K. Additionally, we announced the sale of a 319 property OM portfolio. Through an enhanced focus and increased seniors housing concentration within our portfolio, we expect to extend the duration of our cash flow growth and increase our terminal growth rate.Private Funds Management Business In January 2025, we announced our foray into the capital light, private funds management business with the launch of our first seniors housing investment fund, Seniors Housing Fund I LP (the "Fund"). In the fourth quarter of 2025, we closed the Fund with approximately $2.5 billion of total equity commitments, which includes commitments from eight global, third-party institutional LPs with ADIA as the anchor investor. Thus far, approximately 50% of committed equity capital has been deployed. Welltower serves as the general partner and asset manager and has a limited partner interest in the Fund.In the fourth quarter of 2025, we launched our second fund, Seniors Housing Debt Fund I LP.Dividend On February 10, 2026, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 of $0.74 per share. This dividend, which will be paid on March 10, 2026 to stockholders of record as of February 25, 2026, will be our 219th consecutive quarterly cash dividend. The declaration and payment of future quarterly dividends remains subject to review and approval by the Board of Directors.Outlook for 2026 We are introducing our 2026 earnings guidance and expect to report net income attributable to common stockholders guidance in a range of $3.11 to $3.27 per diluted share and normalized FFO attributable to common stockholders in a range of $6.09 to $6.25 per diluted share. In preparing our guidance, we have made the following assumptions:Same Store NOI: We expect average blended SSNOI growth of 11.25% to 15.75%, which is comprised of the following components:Seniors Housing Operating approximately 15.0% to 21.0%Seniors Housing Triple-net approximately 3.0% to 4.0%Outpatient Medical approximately 2.0% to 3.0%Long-Term/Post-Acute Care approximately 2.0% to 3.0%Investments: Our earnings guidance includes only those acquisitions announced or closed to date. Furthermore, no transitions, restructures or capital activity beyond those announced to date are included.General and Administrative Expenses: We anticipate general and administrative expenses to be approximately $260 million to $270 million. General and administrative guidance and 2026 normalized FFO guidance include anticipated stock-based compensation expense of approximately $60 million, or approximately $0.08 per diluted share.Development: We anticipate funding an additional $370 million of development in 2026 relating to projects underway as of December 31, 2025.Dispositions: We expect pro rata disposition proceeds of $3.5 billion at a blended yield of 6.8% in the next twelve months. This includes approximately $2.7 billion of consideration from expected property sales and $0.7 billion of expected proceeds from loan repayments.Our guidance does not include any additional investments, dispositions or capital transactions, nor any other expenses, impairments, unanticipated additions to the loan loss reserve or other additional normalizing items beyond those disclosed. Please see the Supplemental Reporting Measures section for further discussion and our definition of normalized FFO and SSNOI and Exhibit 3 for a reconciliation of the outlook for net income available to common stockholders to normalized FFO attributable to common stockholders. We will provide additional detail regarding our 2026 outlook and assumptions on the fourth quarter 2025 conference call.Conference Call Information We have scheduled a conference call on Wednesday, February 11, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss our fourth quarter 2025 results, industry trends and portfolio performance. Telephone access will be available by dialing (888) 340-5024 or (646) 960-0135 (international).

To access the rebroadcast, dial (800) 770-2030 or (609) 800-9909 (international). The conference ID number is 8230248. To participate in the webcast, log on to www.welltower.com 15 minutes before the call to download the necessary software. Replays will be available for 90 days.Supplemental Reporting Measures We believe that net income and net income attributable to common stockholders ("NICS"), as defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"), are the most appropriate earnings measurements. However, we consider funds from operations ("FFO"), normalized FFO, net operating income ("NOI"), same store NOI ("SSNOI"), revenue per occupied room ("RevPOR"), same store RevPOR ("SS RevPOR"), expense per occupied room ("ExpPOR"), same store ExpPOR ("SS ExpPOR"), EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be useful supplemental measures of our operating performance. Excluding EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, these supplemental measures are disclosed on our pro rata ownership basis. Pro rata amounts are derived by reducing consolidated amounts for minority partners' noncontrolling ownership interests and adding our minority ownership share of unconsolidated amounts. We do not control unconsolidated investments. While we consider pro rata disclosures useful, they may not accurately depict the legal and economic implications of our joint venture arrangements and should be used with caution.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 attributable to common stockholders, as defined by NAREIT, means net income attributable to common stockholders, computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real estate and acquisitions of controlling interests, impairments of depreciable assets, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated entities and noncontrolling interests. Normalized FFO attributable to common stockholders represents FFO attributable to common stockholders adjusted for certain items detailed in Exhibit 2. We believe that normalized FFO attributable to common stockholders is a useful supplemental measure of operating performance because investors and equity analysts may use this measure to compare the operating performance of Welltower between periods or as compared to other REITs or other companies on a consistent basis without having to account for differences caused by unanticipated and/or incalculable items.We define NOI as total revenues, including tenant reimbursements, less property operating expenses. Property operating expenses represent costs associated with managing, maintaining and servicing tenants for our properties. These expenses include, but are not limited to, property-related payroll and benefits, property management fees paid to managers, marketing, housekeeping, food service, maintenance, utilities, property taxes and insurance. General and administrative expenses represent general overhead costs that are unrelated to property operations and are unallocable to the properties. These expenses include, but are not limited to, payroll and benefits related to corporate employees, professional services, office expenses and depreciation of corporate fixed assets. SSNOI is used to evaluate the operating performance of our properties using a consistent population which controls for changes in the composition of our portfolio. As used herein, same store is generally defined as those revenue-generating properties in the portfolio for the relevant year-over-year reporting periods. Acquisitions and development conversions are included in the same store amounts five full quarters after acquisition or being placed into service. Land parcels, loans and leased properties, as well as any properties sold or classified as held for sale during the period, are excluded from the same store amounts. Redeveloped properties (including major refurbishments of a Seniors Housing Operating property where 20% or more of units are simultaneously taken out of commission for 30 days or more or Outpatient Medical properties undergoing a change in intended use) are excluded from the same store amounts until five full quarters post completion of the redevelopment. Properties undergoing operator transitions and/or segment transitions are also excluded from the same store amounts until five full quarters post completion of the operator transition or segment transition. In addition, properties significantly impacted by force majeure, acts of God or other extraordinary adverse events are excluded from same store amounts until five full quarters after the properties are placed back into service. SSNOI excludes non-cash NOI and includes adjustments to present consistent property ownership percentages and to translate Canadian properties and UK properties using a consistent exchange rate. Normalizers include adjustments that in management's opinion are appropriate in considering SSNOI, a supplemental, non-GAAP performance measure. None of these adjustments, which may increase or decrease SSNOI, are reflected in our financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Significant normalizers (defined as any that individually exceed 0.50% of SSNOI growth per property type) are separately disclosed and explained. We believe NOI and SSNOI provide investors relevant and useful information because they measure the operating performance of our properties at the property level on an unleveraged basis. We use NOI and SSNOI to make decisions about resource allocations and to assess the property level performance of our portfolio. No reconciliation of the forecasted range for SSNOI on a combined basis or by property type is included in this release because we are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable efforts, and we believe such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors.RevPOR represents the average revenues generated per occupied room per month and ExpPOR represents the average expenses per occupied room per month at our Seniors Housing Operating properties. These metrics are calculated as our pro rata share of total resident fees and services revenues or property operating expenses from the income statement, divided by average monthly occupied room days. SS RevPOR and SS ExpPOR are used to evaluate the RevPOR and ExpPOR performance of our properties under a consistent population, which eliminates changes in the composition of our portfolio. They are based on the same pool of properties used for SSNOI and include any revenue and expense normalizations used for SSNOI. We use RevPOR, ExpPOR, SS RevPOR and SS ExpPOR to evaluate the revenue-generating capacity and profit potential of our Seniors Housing Operating portfolio independent of fluctuating occupancy rates. They are also used in comparison against industry and competitor statistics, if known, to evaluate the quality of our Seniors Housing Operating portfolio.We measure our credit strength both in terms of leverage ratios and coverage ratios. The leverage ratios indicate how much of our balance sheet capitalization is related to long-term debt, net of cash and restricted cash. We expect to maintain capitalization ratios and coverage ratios sufficient to maintain a capital structure consistent with our current profile. The ratios are based on EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as earnings (net income per income statement) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding unconsolidated entities and including adjustments for stock-based compensation expense, provision for loan losses, gains/losses on extinguishment of debt, gains/losses on disposition of properties and acquisitions of controlling interests, impairment of assets, gains/losses on derivatives and financial instruments, other expenses, other impairment charges and other adjustments deemed appropriate in management's opinion. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, along with net income, are important supplemental measures because they provide additional information to assess and evaluate the performance of our operations. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA to measure our adjusted fixed charge coverage ratio, which represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by fixed charges. Fixed charges include total interest expense and secured debt principal amortization. Our leverage ratios include net debt to Adjusted EBITDA and consolidated enterprise value. Net debt is defined as total long-term debt, excluding operating lease liabilities, less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. Consolidated enterprise value represents the sum of net debt, the fair market value of our common stock and noncontrolling interests.Our supplemental reporting measures and similarly entitled financial measures are widely used by investors, equity and debt analysts and rating agencies in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies. Our management uses these financial measures to facilitate internal and external comparisons to historical operating results and in making operating decisions. Additionally, these measures are utilized by the Board of Directors to evaluate management performance. None of the supplemental reporting measures 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 us, 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 supplemental reporting measures and the supplemental information package for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, which is available on Welltower's website (www.welltower.com), for information and reconciliations of additional supplemental reporting measures.About Welltower Welltower Inc.
