HEALTH CARE REIT, INC. REPORTS FIRST
QUARTER OPERATING RESULTS
First Quarter FFO Reported $0.70 Per Share
Toledo, Ohio, April 26, 2000........Health Care REIT, Inc. (NYSE/HCN) today
announced operating results for the first quarter of 2000. Funds from operations
(FFO), the generally accepted measure of operating performance for the real
estate investment trust industry, totaled $19.9 million, or $0.70 per diluted
share, a 4.5 percent per share increase from $19.0 million, or $0.67 per diluted
share, for the same period in 1999.
Dividend payments to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31,
2000, totaled $16.6 million, or $0.58 per share, as compared with dividend
payments of $15.8 million, or $0.56 per share, for the same period in 1999.
Correspondingly, the FFO payout ratio for the first quarter was 83 percent as
compared with 84 percent for the first three months of 1999.
"The first quarter operating results met management's expectations," commented
George L. Chapman, chairman and chief executive officer. "The modest
year-to-year asset and FFO growth reflects the restrictive capital environment
that has constrained the health care REIT sector for the past 12 to 18 months.
We continue to limit new investment activity to unfunded construction
commitments and remain focused on the execution of the company's $200 million
asset divestiture program, which is proceeding as planned. The limited asset
sales will strengthen our portfolio and generate liquidity, enhancing the
company's balance sheet. This strategy positions us to take advantage of
investment opportunities as the long-term care industry recovers."
Revenues for the quarter increased 21 percent to $35 million from $28.8 million
a year ago. Revenue growth was generated primarily by new investment activity in
1999 of $275 million. Investment activity contributed to a 9 percent increase in
total assets, which at March 31, 2000, totaled $1.3 billion as compared with
total assets of $1.2 billion at March 31, 1999.
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2000, was $9.1 million as
compared with $4.3 million for the same period in 1999. The increase in the 2000
period was primarily due to the issuance of $114 million of long-term debt
during 1999 and higher average borrowings under the company's lines of credit
arrangements. The increase in the 2000 period was offset by the amount of
capitalized interest recorded during the first three months of 2000.

The company capitalizes certain interest costs associated with funds used to
finance the construction of properties owned directly by the company. The amount
capitalized is based upon the borrowings outstanding during the construction
period using the rate of interest which approximates the company's cost of
financing. The company's interest expense is reduced by the amount capitalized.
Capitalized interest for the first quarter of 2000, totaled $1.2 million as
compared with $3.2 million for the same period in 1999.
Net income available to common shareholders for the first quarter totaled $14.8
million, or $0.52 per diluted share, as compared with net income available to
common shareholders of $16.2 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, for the same
period in 1999. The decline in net income was related primarily to an increase
in the company's provision for depreciation and the level of non-recurring
revenue recognized in the first quarter of 1999. For the three months ended
March 31, 2000, the provision for depreciation totaled $5.3 million as compared
with $3.6 million for the same period in 1999. The increased provision for
depreciation was the result of additional investments in properties owned
directly by the company. Included in net income for the first quarter of 1999
were non-recurring gains and prepayment fees of $811,000, as compared with
$123,000 for the first three months of 2000.
During the first quarter of 2000, investment activity totaled $18 million.
During the same period, the company received principal payments on real estate
mortgages of $630,000, and proceeds of $26.4 million derived from asset sales.
As of March 31, 2000, the company had approximately $26 million in unfunded
commitments.
At March 31, 2000, the company had a total outstanding debt balance of $534
million, and shareholders' equity of $706 million, which represents a debt to
total capitalization ratio of 0.43 to 1.0.
Health Care REIT, Inc., with headquarters in Toledo, Ohio, is a real estate
investment trust that invests in health care facilities, primarily nursing homes
and assisted living facilities. At March 31, 2000, the company had investments
in 235 health care facilities in 33 states and had total assets of approximately
$1.3 billion. For more information on Health Care REIT, Inc., via facsimile at
