•Port St. Lucie, FL. Acquired a newly constructed, surgery center-anchored MOB attached to a vibrant hospital for $21 million ($4 million investment at share). The Company now owns three properties totaling 110,000 square feet in the market
•Greenwich, CT. Acquired an exceptionally well-located, health system anchored MOB for $65 million ($13 million investment at share). The 106,000 square foot acquisition complements the Company’s 10 other assets in the market and expands our relationship with “A+” rated Yale New Haven Health and “BBB+” rated Stamford Health
•Other Acquisitions. Under LOI to acquire four additional assets in Charleston, SC, Seattle, WA and Denver, CO for $111 million ($22 million at share). The assets are located in attractive sub-markets adjacent to existing Company properties. The transactions are expected to close in the third quarter
Disposition Activity
Since last quarter, the Company has closed or is under contract to sell approximately $83 million (at share) of assets. Selected transactions include:
•Atlanta, GA. The Company is under contract for the opportunistic $36 million direct sale of a 59,000 square foot MOB to the affiliated hospital. The closing is expected to occur in the fourth quarter
•Austin, TX. During the quarter, the Company monetized a non-core retail property for $9 million
•Denver, CO. The Company is under contract for the sale of three land sites direct to the affiliated health system for $16 million. The sale is expected to occur by year-end 2026
Development and Redevelopment
During the second quarter, the Company leased approximately 60,000 square feet and invested approximately $25 million across its redevelopment portfolio.
In early July, the Company executed an LOI with Ascension Saint Thomas to launch a comprehensive redevelopment at the Ascension Saint Thomas West campus in Nashville, TN. Located in the heart of one of the most vibrant submarkets in Nashville, the hospital and health campus will undergo a $120 million modernization led by Ascension. Ascension's investment will include meaningful upgrades to clinical infrastructure, operating rooms, cardiac catheterization labs, as well as a new Heart and Kidney Transplant Center and a new Thoracic Surgery and Chest & Lung Center. Ascension is a Top 10 U.S. health system by revenue, and recently closed on its acquisition of AmSurg, a leading owner/operator of outpatient ambulatory surgery centers across the U.S.
Healthcare Realty will invest $35 million to modernize its three buildings and agreed to over 200,000 square feet of new and renewal leases across three campuses in the greater Nashville market with Ascension. These leases are expected to be signed in the third quarter.
Balance Sheet
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had approximately $1.6 billion of liquidity across the revolving facility (net of commercial paper issuance), delayed draw term loan, and cash on hand. Key capital market activity during the quarter includes:
•Issued $700 million of 3.00% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2032. Proceeds were primarily used to repay the Company’s $600 million Senior Notes that was due to mature in August 2026 and concurrently repurchased 3.8 million shares of common stock for $75 million. The Notes are exchangeable at an initial exchange rate of 43.466 shares of the Company's common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which represents an initial exchange price of $23.01 per share. Additionally, the Company entered into capped call transactions for $29 million, with an initial cap price of $27.41 per share, to reduce potential future share dilution
•Entered into a $400 million unsecured delayed draw term loan with a May 15, 2029 maturity date. The Company has the ability to draw the proceeds at any time through May 15, 2027. As of June 30, 2026 there were no outstanding borrowings
DIVIDEND

Non-GAAP Measures
Management considers funds from operations ("FFO"), FFO per share, normalized FFO, normalized FFO per share, and funds available for distribution ("FAD") to be useful non-GAAP measures of the Company's operating performance. A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined as one that purports to measure historical financial performance, financial position or cash flows, but excludes or includes amounts that would not be so adjusted in the most comparable measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Set forth below are descriptions of the non-GAAP financial measures management considers relevant to the Company's business and useful to investors.
The non-GAAP financial measures presented herein are not necessarily identical to those presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definitions. These measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP), as indicators of the Company's financial performance, or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as measures of the Company's liquidity, nor are these measures necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company's needs.
FFO and FFO per share are operating performance measures adopted by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as “net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, and impairment write-downs of certain real assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity.” The Company defines Normalized FFO as FFO excluding acquisition-related expenses and other normalizing items that are unusual and infrequent in nature. FAD is presented by adding to Normalized FFO non-real estate depreciation and amortization, deferred financing fees amortization, and share-based compensation expense; and subtracting maintenance capital expenditures, including second generation tenant improvements and leasing commissions paid and straight-line rent income, net of expense. The Company's definition of these terms may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may have different methodologies for computing these amounts. FFO, Normalized FFO and FAD do not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. FFO, Normalized FFO and FAD should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. FFO, Normalized FFO and FAD should be reviewed in connection with GAAP financial measures.
Management believes FFO, FFO per share, Normalized FFO, Normalized FFO per share, and FAD provide an understanding of the operating performance of the Company’s properties without giving effect to certain significant non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization expense. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. However, real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. The Company believes that by excluding the effect of depreciation, amortization, gains or losses from sales of real estate, and other normalizing items that are unusual and infrequent, FFO, FFO per share, Normalized FFO, Normalized FFO per share and FAD can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods. The Company reports these measures because they have been observed by management to be the predominant measures used by the REIT industry and by industry analysts to evaluate REITs and because these measures are consistently reported, discussed, and compared by research analysts in their notes and publications about REITs.
Cash NOI and Same Store Cash NOI are key performance indicators. Management considers these to be supplemental measures that allow investors, analysts and Company management to measure unlevered property-level operating results. The Company defines Cash NOI as rental income plus interest from financing receivables less property operating expenses. Cash NOI excludes non-cash items such as above and below market lease intangibles, straight-line rent, lease inducements, lease termination fees, financing receivable amortization, tenant improvement amortization and leasing commission amortization. Cash NOI is historical and not necessarily indicative of future results.
Same Store Cash NOI compares Cash NOI for stabilized properties. Stabilized properties are properties that have been included in operations for the duration of the year-over-year comparison period presented. Accordingly, stabilized properties exclude properties that were recently acquired or disposed of, properties classified as held for sale, properties undergoing redevelopment, and newly redeveloped or developed properties.
The Company utilizes the redevelopment classification for properties where management has approved a change in strategic direction through the application of additional resources, including an amount of capital expenditures significantly above routine maintenance and capital improvement expenditures.
Any recently acquired property will be included in the same store pool once the Company has owned the property for five full quarters. Newly developed or redeveloped properties will be included in the same store pool five full quarters after substantial completion.
