Capital Activity and Liquidity
Liquidity Update During the second quarter, net debt to consolidated enterprise value improved to 14.8% as of June 30, 2024 from 20.9% as of December 31, 2023. We sourced over $2.1 billion of attractively priced capital, including equity and proceeds from dispositions and loan repayments to fund accretive capital deployment opportunities and to further strengthen our already robust liquidity profile. As of June 30, 2024, our share of variable rate debt was approximately 7.1%.
Expanded Senior Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility In July, we closed on an expanded $5.0 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility, which replaced our $4.0 billion existing line of credit. The new facility is comprised of a $3.0 billion revolving line of credit maturing in June 2028 that can be extended for an additional year and a $2.0 billion revolving line of credit maturing in June 2029. The revolving lines of credit will bear interest at a borrowing rate of 72.5bps over the adjusted SOFR rate and an annual facility fee of 12.5bps.
Exchangeable Senior Unsecured Notes Issuance In July, Welltower OP issued $1,035,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.125% exchangeable senior unsecured notes maturing July 15, 2029 (the “Exchangeable Notes”) unless earlier exchanged, purchased or redeemed. The Exchangeable Notes will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year.
Notable Portfolio Activity
In the second quarter, we completed $1.7 billion of pro rata gross investments, including $1.4 billion in acquisitions and loan funding and $251 million in development funding. We opened 13 development projects, including partial conversions and expansions, for an aggregate pro rata investment amount of $214 million. Additionally, during the second quarter we completed pro rata property dispositions and loan repayments of $578 million.
Private Equity Acquisition and Loan Funding During the second quarter, we acquired a portfolio of seniors housing communities for $271 million and provided a first mortgage loan collateralized by a portfolio of seniors housing properties for $456 million. The portfolios comprise 12 high quality seniors housing communities encompassing approximately 2,000 units.
Atria Senior Living As previously announced, we entered into an agreement to transition 89 Holiday by Atria communities to six of Welltower’s existing operating partners with strong operating acumen and deep expertise in their respective regions. To date, operations for 69 properties have been transitioned to new operators, with the remaining properties expected to be transitioned by the end of the third quarter.
Triple-net to Seniors Housing Operating Transitions During the second quarter, we reached agreements to convert 47 triple-net leased properties to Seniors Housing Operating (RIDEA) structures, allowing us to directly participate in the underlying cash flow growth of the communities. The transition to highly-aligned RIDEA 4.0 structures will deepen our partnership with several leading managers, build on success within their existing portfolios, and ensure that both Welltower and our partners benefit from the communities’ future growth potential. We completed 11 of these transitions during the second quarter and expect to complete the remainder during the third quarter.
Announced Future Investment Activity
Subsequent to quarter end, announced $1.1 billion in pro rata acquisitions under contract, in addition to the previously announced $3.8 billion of investment activity closed or under contract to close as of June 3, 2024. Transactions under contract and not yet closed are subject to customary closing conditions.
Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”)
During the second quarter, we achieved an MSCI ESG rating of “AA”, reflecting our robust corporate governance practices, ESG risk management relative to peers and ongoing commitment to advancing sustainability initiatives. Additionally, in June, we released our 2023 ESG Report, which is available on our website, summarizing our progress and achievements across a range of ESG initiatives, including those related to diversity and inclusion, environmental responsibility and corporate governance.
Dividend On July 29, 2024, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 of $0.67 per share, an increase of 10% from the prior quarter. This dividend, which will be paid on August 21, 2024 to stockholders of record as of August 12, 2024, will be our 213th consecutive quarterly cash dividend. The declaration and payment of future quarterly dividends remains subject to review and approval by the Board of Directors.
Outlook for 2024 Net income attributable to common stockholders guidance has been revised to a range of $1.52 to $1.60 per diluted share from the previous range of $1.45 to $1.57 per diluted share. We increased the guidance range of full year normalized FFO attributable to common stockholders to a range of $4.13 to $4.21 per diluted share from the previous range of $4.05 to $4.17 per diluted share. In preparing our guidance, we have updated or confirmed the following assumptions:
Same Store NOI: We expect average blended SSNOI growth of 10.0% to 12.5%, which is comprised of the following components:
Seniors Housing Operating approximately 19.0% to 23.0%
Seniors Housing Triple-net approximately 3.0% to 4.0%
Outpatient Medical approximately 2.0% to 3.0%
Long-Term/Post-Acute Care approximately 2.0% to 3.0%
Investments: Our earnings guidance includes only those acquisitions announced or closed to date. Furthermore, no transitions or restructures beyond those announced to date are included.
General and Administrative Expenses: We anticipate general and administrative expenses to be approximately $205 million to $211 million and stock-based compensation expense to be approximately $40 million.
Development: We anticipate funding an additional $328 million of development in 2024 relating to projects underway as of June 30, 2024.
Dispositions: We expect pro rata disposition proceeds of $643 million at a blended yield of 6.9% in the next twelve months. This includes approximately $601 million of consideration from expected property sales and $42 million of expected proceeds from loan repayments.
Pandemic Relief Funds: Our initial 2024 earnings guidance did not include the recognition of any pandemic relief funds which may be received during the year. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we recognized approximately $2 million at our share related to Provider Relief Funds and similar programs in the United Kingdom and Canada. Our updated guidance does not include any additional funds in 2024. In 2023, we recognized approximately $13 million at our share relating to Provider Relief Funds and similar programs in the United Kingdom and Canada.
Our guidance does not include any additional investments, dispositions or capital transactions beyond those we have announced, nor any other expenses, impairments, unanticipated additions to the loan loss reserve or other additional normalizing items. Please see the Supplemental Reporting Measures section for further discussion and our definition of normalized FFO and SSNOI and Exhibit 3 for a reconciliation of the outlook for net income available to common stockholders to normalized FFO attributable to common stockholders. We will provide additional detail regarding our 2024 outlook and assumptions on the second quarter 2024 conference call.

Supplemental Reporting Measures We believe that net income and net income attributable to common stockholders (“NICS”), as defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), are the most appropriate earnings measurements. However, we consider funds from operations (“FFO”), normalized FFO, net operating income (“NOI”), same store NOI (“SSNOI”), EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be useful supplemental measures of our operating performance. Excluding EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, these supplemental measures are disclosed on our pro rata ownership basis. Pro rata amounts are derived by reducing consolidated amounts for minority partners’ noncontrolling ownership interests and adding our minority ownership share of unconsolidated amounts. We do not control unconsolidated investments. While we consider pro rata disclosures useful, they may not accurately depict the legal and economic implications of our joint venture arrangements and should be used with caution.
Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time as evidenced by the provision for depreciation. However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient. In response, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) created FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs that excludes historical cost depreciation from net income. FFO attributable to common stockholders, as defined by NAREIT, means net income attributable to common stockholders, computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real estate and impairments of depreciable assets, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated entities and noncontrolling interests. Normalized FFO attributable to common stockholders represents FFO attributable to common stockholders adjusted for certain items detailed in Exhibit 2. We believe that normalized FFO attributable to common stockholders is a useful supplemental measure of operating performance because investors and equity analysts may use this measure to compare the operating performance of Welltower between periods or as compared to other REITs or other companies on a consistent basis without having to account for differences caused by unanticipated and/or incalculable items.
We define NOI as total revenues, including tenant reimbursements, less property operating expenses. Property operating expenses represent costs associated with managing, maintaining and servicing tenants for our properties. These expenses include, but are not limited to, property-related payroll and benefits, property management fees paid to managers, marketing, housekeeping, food service, maintenance, utilities, property taxes and insurance. General and administrative expenses represent general overhead costs that are unrelated to property operations and unallocable to the properties. These expenses include, but are not limited to, payroll and benefits related to corporate employees, professional services, office expenses and depreciation of corporate fixed assets. SSNOI is used to evaluate the operating performance of our properties using a consistent population which controls for changes in the composition of our portfolio. As used herein, same store is generally defined as those revenue-generating properties in the portfolio for the relevant year-over-year reporting periods. Acquisitions and development conversions are included in the same store amounts five full quarters after acquisition or being placed into service. Land parcels, loans and sub-leases, as well as any properties sold or classified as held for sale during the period, are excluded from the same store amounts. Redeveloped properties (including major refurbishments of a Seniors Housing Operating property where 20% or more of units are simultaneously taken out of commission for 30 days or more or Outpatient Medical properties undergoing a change in intended use) are excluded from the same store amounts until five full quarters post completion of the redevelopment. Properties undergoing operator transitions and/or segment transitions are also excluded from the same store amounts until five full quarters post completion of the operator transition or segment transition. In addition, properties significantly impacted by force majeure, acts of God or other extraordinary adverse events are excluded from same store amounts until five full quarters after the properties are placed back into service. SSNOI excludes non-cash NOI and includes adjustments to present consistent property ownership percentages and to translate Canadian properties and UK properties using a consistent exchange rate. Normalizers include adjustments that in management’s opinion are appropriate in considering SSNOI, a supplemental, non-GAAP performance measure. None of these adjustments, which may increase or decrease SSNOI, are reflected in our financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Significant normalizers (defined as any that individually exceed 0.50% of SSNOI growth per property type) are separately disclosed and explained. We believe NOI and SSNOI provide investors relevant and useful information because they measure the operating performance of our properties at the property level on an unleveraged basis. We use NOI and SSNOI to make decisions about resource allocations and to assess the property level performance of our properties. No reconciliation of the forecasted range for SSNOI on a combined basis or by property type is included in this release because we are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable efforts, and we believe such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors.
We measure our credit strength both in terms of leverage ratios and coverage ratios. The leverage ratios indicate how much of our balance sheet capitalization is related to long-term debt, net of cash and restricted cash. We expect to maintain capitalization ratios and coverage ratios sufficient to maintain a capital structure consistent with our current profile. The ratios are based on EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as earnings (net income per income statement) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding unconsolidated entities and including adjustments for stock-based compensation expense, provision for loan losses, gains/losses on extinguishment of debt, gains/losses/impairments on properties, gains/losses on derivatives and financial instruments, other expenses, other impairment charges and other adjustments deemed appropriate in management’s opinion. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, along with net income, are important supplemental measures because they provide additional information to assess and evaluate the performance of our operations. Our leverage ratios include net debt to Adjusted EBITDA and consolidated enterprise value. Net debt is defined as total long-term debt, excluding operating lease liabilities, less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. Consolidated enterprise value represents the sum of net debt, the fair market value of our common stock and noncontrolling interests.
Our supplemental reporting measures and similarly entitled financial measures are widely used by investors, equity and debt analysts and ratings agencies in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies. Our management uses these financial measures to facilitate internal and external comparisons to historical operating results and in making operating decisions. Additionally, they are utilized by the Board of Directors to evaluate management. The supplemental reporting measures do not represent net income or cash flow provided from operating activities as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternative measures of profitability or liquidity. Finally, the supplemental reporting measures, as defined by us, may not be comparable to similarly entitled items reported by other real estate investment trusts or other companies. Please see the exhibits for reconciliations of supplemental reporting measures and the supplemental information package for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, which is available on Welltower’s website (www.welltower.com), for information and reconciliations of additional supplemental reporting measures.
