Ventas’s scale, portfolio diversification, best-in-class credit profile and financial strength support its mission to deliver superior and reliable returns. From 2002-2012, the company’s compound annual total shareholder return of 25.1% far outpaced both the healthcare REIT and the overall REIT indexes; our total return grew 835.4% over the decade.

Ventas has over 1,400 properties in 46 states, the District of Columbia and 2 Canadian provinces, including Seniors Housing, Medical Office Buildings, Skilled Nursing Facilities and Hospitals. Ventas’s high quality portfolio boasts greater diversification across all key measures, including geography, asset type, tenant/manager mix, revenue source and operating model.

Ventas benefits from a full range of partnerships and investments. Our efficient access to both the debt and equity markets and our ability to provide up to 100% financing allow us to provide tailored seniors housing and healthcare real estate financing solutions.

On July 1, 2011 Ventas closed on its acquisition of Nationwide Health Properties. The transaction creates the leading healthcare REIT, with over 100 customer relationships.

A core value at Ventas is promoting sustainability across our properties. Improvements to our environmental footprint and energy efficiency efforts are taking place throughout our portfolio.
