Forward Guidance

The Company currently expects to report third quarter 2022 Attributable Net Income (Loss), Nareit FFO and Normalized FFO per share within the following ranges, which include $20 million (or $0.05 per share) of HHS grants received to date in the third quarter 2022.

Positive Outlook

  • SHOP same-store cash NOI is expected to grow in the range of 9% to 15% year-over-year.
  • Ventas anticipates year-over-year revenue growth of approximately 8% at the midpoint of the same-store cash NOI guidance range, driven by the expected combination of 250 to 300 basis points of occupancy growth and improved rates.
  • Year-over-year revenue growth is expected to be partially mitigated by continued broad inflationary expense pressure.
  • Sequential SHOP cash NOI is expected to outperform pre-pandemic seasonal patterns.
  • Office: Same-store cash NOI growth year-over-year is expected to be driven by contractual escalators and new leasing partially offset by expense growth and frictional vacancy in R&I.

Challenges Ahead

  • Triple-Net: Same-store cash NOI growth year-over-year is driven by previously announced lease resolutions with senior housing triple-net tenants who were materially affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Interest Rates and Foreign Exchange: Rising interest rates on floating rate debt and a strengthening U.S. Dollar are expected to reduce Normalized FFO by approximately ($0.02) per share in the third quarter versus the second quarter 2022.
  • The Normalized FFO impact of third quarter general and administrative expenses is expected to range from approximately $36 million to $38 million.
  • The guidance does not assume any new or unannounced material acquisitions or capital markets activities.
  • The guidance assumes no material changes in the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business. The trajectory and future impact of COVID-19 on various aspects of the business remain highly uncertain and may change rapidly.
