THIRD QUARTER COMPARISON

Nareit FFO, FFO as Adjusted, AFFO, Same-Store Cash (Adjusted) NOI and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are useful in evaluating the operating performance and financial position of real estate investment trusts (see the "Funds From Operations" and "Adjusted Funds From Operations" sections of this release for additional information). See "September 30, 2022 Discussion and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for definitions, discussions of their uses and inherent limitations, and reconciliations to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the Investor Relations section of our website at http://ir.healthpeak.com/quarterly-results.

SAME-STORE ("SS") OPERATING SUMMARY

The table below outlines the year-over-year three-month SS Cash (Adjusted) NOI growth on an actual and pro forma basis. The Pro Forma table reflects the results excluding government grants under the CARES Act for our CCRC portfolio.

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO JOINT VENTURES

POINTE GRAND REDEVELOPMENT

As previously announced, in August 2022, Healthpeak and a sovereign wealth fund partner ("SWF Partner") entered into a 70% (Healthpeak) / 30% (SWF Partner) joint venture ("JV") on an approximately 400,000 square foot portfolio of seven life science buildings on Healthpeak's Pointe Grand campus in South San Francisco. The JV generated cash proceeds to Healthpeak of $126 million at closing.

The JV intends to capitalize on Pointe Grand's A+ location to redevelop the buildings and create differentiated product, offering tenants speed to market in high-quality, purpose-built lab space.

During the third quarter, four buildings entered redevelopment. The remaining three buildings are expected to enter redevelopment as in-place leases expire during 2023.

VANTAGE PHASES II & III DEVELOPMENT

As previously announced, Healthpeak and the SWF Partner have also signed agreements to develop Phases II and III of Vantage, a Class A life science development campus that is directly adjacent to Pointe Grand in South San Francisco and currently wholly-owned by Healthpeak. The purchase price for the Vantage Phase II & III joint venture is subject to final entitlements/density, and closing is subject to certain closing conditions, which we expect will be satisfied in the first half of 2023.

LIFE SCIENCE LEASING UPDATE

During the third quarter, life science lease executions totaled over 500,000 square feet including:

154,000 square foot development lease with a global pharmaceutical company at Vantage in South San Francisco

122,000 square foot full-building lease with a mid-cap public biotech company at 333 Oyster Point in South San Francisco

55,000 square foot full-building lease at 280 E. Grand on the Pointe Grand redevelopment campus in South San Francisco

53,000 square foot lease to a credit tenant at 65 Hayden in Boston

DEVELOPMENT UPDATE

THE SHORE AT SIERRA POINT

During the third quarter, Healthpeak placed in service the remaining 36,000 square feet, representing $49 million of investment, at Phase II of the The Shore, in Brisbane California.

The Shore is a 23-acre waterfront campus spanning approximately 629,000 square feet and is 100% leased to leading global pharmaceutical and biotech companies.

DISPOSITIONS

During the third quarter, Healthpeak closed on the sale of two non-core MOB assets, generating proceeds of $9 million.

SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

As previously announced, in August 2022, Healthpeak's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing Healthpeak to purchase up to $500 million of common stock in the open market at Healthpeak's discretion and subject to market conditions, regulatory constraints, and other customary conditions, until August 2024.

In August 2022, Healthpeak repurchased $56 million of common stock at a weighted average price of $27.16 per share.

BALANCE SHEET

In August 2022, Healthpeak closed two previously announced senior unsecured delayed draw term loans (the "Term Loan Facilities") in an aggregate principal amount of up to $500 million, with initial stated maturities of 4.5 years (plus 1-year extension option at Healthpeak's discretion) and 5 years, and an interest rate of adjusted SOFR plus 85 basis points based on Healthpeak's current credit ratings. Also in August 2022, Healthpeak executed the previously announced forward-starting swaps to fix the interest rate of the Term Loan Facilities at a blended contractual rate of 3.5% for the initial stated term.

In October 2022, Healthpeak drew down the entirety of the $500 million Term Loan Facilities, which we used to repay commercial paper.

Including net proceeds from the future settlement of shares sold under equity forward contracts during the third quarter of 2021, Net debt to adjusted EBITDAre and liquidity were 5.3x and $2.4 billion, respectively, as of September 30, 2022.

EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP ANNOUNCEMENTS

In October, Healthpeak announced that its Board of Directors had appointed Scott Brinker, the Company's President and Chief Investment Officer, as President and Chief Executive Officer, and elected him to the Healthpeak Board.

Additionally, as previously announced, in October, Scott Bohn, Executive Vice President – Co-Head of Life Science, was appointed Chief Development Officer, in addition to retaining his role as Co-Head of Life Science, and Adam Mabry was promoted to Chief Investment Officer.

In November, Jeffrey Miller was appointed General Counsel. Mr. Miller joined Healthpeak in 2018 and has served in a variety of senior operational leadership roles.
