Ventas Reports 2019 First Quarter Results

CHICAGO--()--Ventas, Inc. (NYSE: VTR) today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2019.

“Ventas delivered a strong start to 2019, consistent with our expectations. We achieved solid property-level growth from our high quality real estate, with our expanding university-based Research & Innovation portfolio going from strength to strength as we invest in this dynamic business. And with excellent capital markets execution, we further enhanced our robust balance sheet,” said Debra A. Cafaro, Ventas Chairman and CEO.

“Our collaborative, skilled and cohesive team is intently focused on executing on our 2019 strategy and our pivot to growth,” Cafaro added.

First Quarter 2019 Company Performance

  • Net income attributable to common stockholders per diluted share for first quarter 2019 was $0.35 compared to $0.22 in the same period in 2018. The year-over-year improvement from 2018 was due principally to lower transactions costs in the current period, and improved results from unconsolidated entities in 2019 due to a non-cash impairment charge to a joint venture, subsequently sold, containing primarily skilled nursing facilities in the first quarter of 2018.
  • Reported FFO per share, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit FFO”) was $0.98 compared to $0.96 in the same period in 2018. The change from 2018 results was largely due to lower transactions costs in the current period.
  • Normalized Funds From Operations (“FFO”) per share for first quarter 2019 was $0.99 compared to $1.05 in 2018. The change from 2018 was principally due to the dilutive impact of using the proceeds derived from 2018 loan repayments and asset dispositions to reduce debt and invest in development and redevelopment projects.

First Quarter 2019 Portfolio Performance

  • For the first quarter 2019, the Company’s quarterly same-store total property portfolio (1,139 assets) cash net operating income (“NOI”) grew 1.1 percent compared to the same period in 2018. Same-store cash NOI performance by segment for the first quarter 2019 is as follows:
 
  Same-Store Cash NOI
Q1 2019
Reported Growth
 
Triple-Net (“NNN”) 2.2%
Seniors Housing Operating Portfolio (“SHOP”) (2.2%)
Office 3.8%
Total Company 1.1%
 
  • First quarter year-over-year changes in the Company’s same-store property results, which were in line with our expectations, were driven by:
    • NNN portfolio: Growth was due to in-place lease escalations and fees received in the quarter.
    • SHOP portfolio: The same-store SHOP communities benefitted from strong January rent increases from in place residents, offset by the anticipated impact of continued elevated new community openings in select markets, which affected rate and occupancy. The year-over-year occupancy change in the first quarter was (20) basis points and absorption in the quarter was robust.
    • Office portfolio: Growth was principally due to excellent performance in our university-based Research & Innovation (“R&I”) properties, driven by strong leasing trends and a first quarter termination fee paid by a vacating tenant replaced by Yale University.

First Quarter 2019 and Recent Highlights

  • Expanding Research & Innovation in Cambridge Market: In April, Ventas completed a $128 million acquisition of 1030 Massachusetts Avenue, a Class A, LEED Gold, fee simple multi-tenant life science building located in Cambridge, MA. The asset is attractively located adjacent to Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The acquisition complements and enhances the Company’s existing university-based R&I portfolio. The Company expects additional rent growth at the asset, where market rents have increased over 10% per annum since 2015.
  • Financial Strength Enhanced by Excellent Capital Markets Execution:
    • Ventas’s financial strength improved further at quarter end, including a sequential improvement to 5.5x in its sector leading net debt to Adjusted Pro Forma EBITDA ratio, and an outstanding fixed charge coverage ratio of 4.5x.
    • The Company currently has robust available liquidity from its cash on hand and existing credit facilities totaling $2.4 billion.
    • During the first quarter:
      • Ventas issued and sold under its “at the market” equity offering program a total of 1.6 million shares of common stock at an average gross issuance price of $64.15 per share, resulting in $100 million in gross proceeds, used to fund the Company’s acquisition of its Cambridge R&I asset.
      • The Company opportunistically issued $400 million of 3.50% Senior Notes due 2024 and $300 million of 4.875% Senior Notes due 2049, proceeds of which were used to retire bonds due 2043 at 5.45% and repay revolving credit facility outstanding balances.
      • Ventas established a $1 billion commercial paper (“CP”) program to cost effectively supplement the Company’s short term working capital capacity. Execution has been excellent with approximately $450 million of CP outstanding.
  • Office Excellence: Ventas’s Office portfolio delivered exceptional performance and achievements year to date:
    • Sutter Van Ness MOB Opens in Downtown San Francisco: Ventas’s trophy 239,000 square foot medical office building (“MOB”) development opened in the first quarter of 2019, is currently 83% leased, and is anchored by Sutter Health (Moody’s AA3). Ventas developed this LEED-certified, world-class outpatient facility in partnership with Pacific Medical Buildings (“PMB”).
    • 3675 Market Street in Philadelphia 92% Leased: Ventas signed a 15-year lease with Amicus Therapeutics for 76,000 square feet at this exciting new project developed with Wexford Science & Technology. Amicus, a publicly traded global biotechnology company with a multi-billion dollar market capitalization, selected 3675 Market Street due to its presence in the uCity Square Knowledge Community containing University of Pennsylvania’s world-class genetics research. In March, Drexel’s College of Computing and Informatics (“CCI”) took possession of 51,000 square feet. CCI will serve as a further catalyst for attracting private companies to this market. The property is now 92 percent leased after opening in the fall of 2018.
    • Yale Increases Tenancy in R&I Portfolio: Pursuant to a new 25-year lease, Yale University is taking occupancy of 250,000 square feet at 100 College Street, expanding Ventas’s relationship with Yale, enhancing its tenant credit, extending the weighted average lease term for the building and demonstrating the attractiveness of the asset. Yale intends to use the space to support Yale’s STEM initiatives, including collaboration with the Yale School of Medicine. It is replacing Alexion Pharmaceuticals in the space, at the same rental rates and with no downtime.
    • R&I Development Milestones Achieved:
      • Ventas broke ground in February on the previously announced development at Arizona State University’s (“ASU”) Phoenix Biomedical Campus. This project is 50 percent pre-leased by ASU (Moody’s Aa2) for biomedical-focused academic and research and is expected to open in 2020.
      • Point225, a 196,000 square foot building adjacent to Brown University in Providence, RI is 80 percent pre-leased by tenants including Brown and Johnson & Johnson, and is expected to open in the second half of 2019.
    • R&I Portfolio Recognition: South Street Landing at Brown University continued to garner recognition, earning the 2019 TOBY award for the best historical building in 2019 by BOMA Middle Atlantic Region, and was named ENR New England’s Best Renovation/Restoration in 2018.
    • MOB Redevelopment 100% Pre-Leased: The Company signed a 66,000 square foot lease with Ascension Hospital affiliate Bay Medical Sacred Heart to occupy 100% of the Ventas owned MOB to be re-built on the campus of Bay Medical Hospital, now wholly owned by Ascension. The MOB, which was damaged by Hurricane Michael in 2018, is expected to open in the second half of 2020. Cash rent will approximate $1.4 million per annum and costs to rebuild are expected to be $24 million, the majority of which has been reimbursed to Ventas.
  • Triple Net Portfolio Progress and Update: Ventas continues to expect to grow its NNN same-store cash NOI in 2019 and execute on its previously announced initiatives. Highlights of its completed and anticipated activities with NNN tenants include the following:
    • In 2018, Ventas and Brookdale entered into mutually beneficial agreements (the “Brookdale Agreements”). The companies are making excellent progress in implementing initiatives under the Brookdale Agreements:
      • Ventas has agreed to fund $36 million in capital improvements for approved projects at Ventas assets to maintain or improve their competitive position in the market and improve the quality of the Ventas-Brookdale portfolio. As capital is advanced, the Company will earn incremental rent under the Brookdale-Ventas master lease of over 7 percent per annum.
      • Ventas and Brookdale are marketing a portfolio of approximately 20 senior housing communities for sale. Upon sale of individual communities, if and when they occur, Brookdale will receive a 6.25% rent credit under the Brookdale-Ventas master lease on net proceeds retained by Ventas from the sale. Expected net proceeds on this pool of assets should exceed $120 million.
    • Ventas entered into a five-year lease extension through 2026 with triple net tenant Genesis Healthcare, on identical rent and escalator terms to those in the pre-extended master lease plus a $1.6 million cash fee to Ventas received in the first quarter.
    • With respect to the Company’s triple net lease portfolio, the Company has made significant progress and continues to estimate that it will incur approximately a ($10 million) net impact from a combination of lease modifications and asset transitions. This estimate is consistent with the Company’s previous guidance.

People & Culture Driving Continued Success

  • Demonstrated Leadership Excellence and Commitment to Environmental, Social and Governance Principles:
    • Ventas Chairman and CEO, Debra A. Cafaro, was named Chair of the Board of Directors of The Economic Club of Chicago, a 91-year old independent non-partisan organization that fosters connections among Chicago’s leaders and sparks dialogue on important economic and social issues. Cafaro was separately inducted into the ASHA (American Seniors Housing Association) Senior Living Hall of Fame.
    • Ventas was announced as a top 10 constituent in two new green REIT indices, the S&P Dow Jones Green REIT Index and the FTSE EPRA Nareit Green Index.
    • Ventas was featured in The Sustainability Yearbook 2019, a showcase of the world’s best performing companies among industry peers. The yearbook identifies companies strongly positioned to create long-term shareholder value.
    • Ventas ranked in the top five percent in the 2018 CDP Survey on environmental impact of nearly 7,000 participating companies.

First Quarter Dividend

The Company paid its first quarter 2019 dividend of $0.7925 per share on April 12, 2019 to stockholders of record on April 1, 2019.

2019 Guidance Confirmed

Ventas reconfirms its previously stated expectations for 2019 per share net income attributable to common stockholders, Nareit FFO and normalized FFO, and same-store cash NOI growth, all as follows:

 
FY 2019 Guidance
Per Share
Low     High
 
Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders $1.23 - $1.38
Nareit FFO $3.70 - $3.82
Normalized FFO $3.75 - $3.85
 
FY 2019 Projected
Same-Store Cash NOI Growth
Low High
 
NNN 0.5% - 1.5%
SHOP (3%) - 0%
Office 1.5% - 2.5%
Total Company 0% 1%
 

Assumptions included within Ventas’s 2019 normalized FFO per share guidance are largely consistent with the Company’s previously disclosed guidance, including NNN lease activity described above and $500 million of mid-year 2019 disposition transactions and receipt of loan repayments in 2019, with proceeds being used to fund approximately $500 million in development and redevelopment projects, focused on accelerating the Company’s exciting university-based R&I development pipeline. These capital recycling activities have near-term impacts on FFO growth in 2019, but will deliver high-quality and accretive long-term cash flow growth. Guidance also includes $0.02 per share in incremental leasing costs from changes in lease accounting standards principally reflected in G&A expenses.

The Company’s 2019 outlook now assumes 362 million weighted average fully-diluted shares. Ventas expects leverage, as measured by net debt to Adjusted Pro Forma EBITDA, to remain stable year-over-year in 2019. Consistent with the Company's prior statements, the Company’s guidance does not contemplate any modification of its lease with Holiday Retirement. No material unannounced investments or capital activity is included in guidance.

A reconciliation of the Company’s 2019 guidance to the Company’s projected GAAP measures is included in this press release. The Company’s 2019 guidance is based on a number of other assumptions that are subject to change and many of which are outside the control of the Company. If actual results vary from these assumptions, the Company’s expectations may change. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve these results.

Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. However, since real estate values historically have risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors deem presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. For that reason, the Company considers FFO, normalized FFO, FAD and normalized FAD to be appropriate supplemental measures of operating performance of an equity REIT. In particular, the Company believes that normalized FFO is useful because it allows investors, analysts and Company management to compare the Company’s operating performance to the operating performance of other real estate companies and between periods on a consistent basis without having to account for differences caused by non-recurring items and other non-operational events such as transactions and litigation. In some cases, the Company provides information about identified non-cash components of FFO and normalized FFO because it allows investors, analysts and Company management to assess the impact of those items on the Company’s financial results.

The Company uses the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition of FFO. NAREIT defines FFO as net income attributable to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of real estate property, including gains or losses on re-measurement of equity method investments, and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. The Company defines normalized FFO as FFO excluding the following income and expense items (which may be recurring in nature): (a) merger-related costs and expenses, including amortization of intangibles, transition and integration expenses, and deal costs and expenses, including expenses and recoveries relating to acquisition lawsuits; (b) the impact of any expenses related to asset impairment and valuation allowances, the write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees, or additional costs, expenses, discounts, make-whole payments, penalties or premiums incurred as a result of early retirement or payment of the Company’s debt; (c) the non-cash effect of income tax benefits or expenses, the non-cash impact of changes to the Company’s executive equity compensation plan, derivative transactions that have non-cash mark-to-market impacts on the Company’s income statement and non-cash charges related to lease terminations; (d) the financial impact of contingent consideration, severance-related costs and charitable donations made to the Ventas Charitable Foundation; (e) gains and losses for non-operational foreign currency hedge agreements and changes in the fair value of financial instruments; (f) gains and losses on non-real estate dispositions and other unusual items related to unconsolidated entities; (g) expenses related to the re-audit and re-review in 2014 of the Company’s historical financial statements and related matters; and (h) net expenses or recoveries related to natural disasters. Normalized FAD represents normalized FFO excluding non-cash components, which include straight-line rental adjustments, and deducting capital expenditures, including certain tenant allowances and leasing commissions. FAD represents normalized FAD after subtracting merger-related expenses, deal costs and re-audit costs and other unusual items related to unconsolidated entities.

FFO, normalized FFO, FAD and normalized FAD presented herein may not be comparable to those presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definitions. FFO, normalized FFO, FAD and normalized FAD should not be considered as alternatives to net income attributable to common stockholders (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 they necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company’s needs. The Company believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the consolidated historical operating results of the Company, FFO, normalized FFO, FAD and normalized FAD should be examined in conjunction with net income attributable to common stockholders as presented elsewhere herein.

Net Debt to Adjusted Pro Forma EBITDA1

(Dollars in thousands)

 

The following table illustrates net debt to pro forma earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (including non-cash stock-based compensation expense), excluding gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, consolidated joint venture partners’ share of EBITDA, merger-related expenses and deal costs, expenses related to the re-audit and re-review in 2014 of the Company’s historical financial statements, net gains or losses on real estate activity, gains or losses on re-measurement of equity interest upon acquisition, changes in the fair value of financial instruments, unrealized foreign currency gains or losses, net expenses or recoveries related to natural disasters and non-cash charges related to lease terminations, and including the Company’s share of EBITDA from unconsolidated entities and adjustments for other immaterial or identified items (“Adjusted EBITDA”).

The following information considers the pro forma effect on Adjusted EBITDA of the Company’s activity during the three months ended March 31, 2019, as if the transactions had been consummated as of the beginning of the period (“Adjusted Pro Forma EBITDA”).

The Company believes that net debt, Adjusted Pro Forma EBITDA and net debt to Adjusted Pro Forma EBITDA are useful to investors, analysts and Company management because they allow the comparison of the Company’s credit strength between periods and to other real estate companies without the effect of items that by their nature are not comparable from period to period and tend to obscure the Company’s actual credit quality.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES RECONCILIATION

Net Operating Income (NOI) and Same-Store Cash NOI by Segment

(Dollars in thousands)

 

The Company considers NOI and same-store cash NOI as important supplemental measures because they allow investors, analysts and the Company’s management to assess its unlevered property-level operating results and to compare its operating results with those of other real estate companies and between periods on a consistent basis. The Company defines NOI as total revenues, less interest and other income, property-level operating expenses and office building services costs. In the case of NOI, cash receipts may differ due to straight-line recognition of certain rental income and the application of other GAAP policies. The Company defines same-store as properties owned, consolidated, operational and reported under a consistent business model (i.e. lease or management contract) for the full period in both comparison periods; provided, however, that the Company may include selected properties that otherwise meet the same-store criteria if they are included in substantially all of, but not a full, period for one or both of the comparison periods, and in the Company's judgment such inclusion provides a more meaningful presentation of its portfolio performance. Same-store excludes assets intended for disposition and for SHOP, those properties that transitioned operators after the start of the prior comparison period, and for office operations, those properties that incur major property-level expenditures to maximize value, increase NOI, maintain a market-competitive position and/or achieve property stabilization. To normalize for exchange rate movements, all same-store cash NOI measures assume constant exchange rates across comparable periods, using the following methodology: the current period’s results are shown in actual reported USD, while prior comparison period’s results are adjusted and converted to USD based on the average exchange rate for the current period.
