The company was formed through a significant strategic consolidation, merging Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III and IV, and integrating the business of American Healthcare Investors. This merger established AHR as a major player in the healthcare real estate sector, with a gross investment value of approximately $4.2 billion. The company's portfolio comprises 312 properties totaling 19 million square feet, including medical office buildings, senior housing communities, skilled nursing facilities, and integrated senior health campuses. These assets are strategically diversified across 36 U.S. states and the United Kingdom, catering to the growing demand driven by demographic trends.
AHR operates a fully integrated management platform staffed by over 100 experienced professionals who have collaborated since 2006, providing deep expertise in healthcare real estate across market cycles. The company is led by Chairman and CEO Jeffrey T. Hanson, who co-founded the organization and has been instrumental in its growth. As a publicly traded REIT since February 2024, AHR aims to enhance access to capital for expansion, diversify its investor base, and provide liquidity to stockholders.
Financially, AHR has a market capitalization of over $11.7 billion, with a price-to-earnings ratio of 83.36 and a dividend yield of about 1.8%. The company generates revenue primarily through leasing and managing healthcare properties, with a strong gross profit margin of 98%. However, its profitability metrics show a net profit margin near zero due to high depreciation and interest costs, typical for REITs. The company maintains a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.424, indicating a balanced leverage approach. With a focus on clinical healthcare real estate, AHR is well-positioned to capitalize on the aging population and increasing healthcare needs, making it a key player in the healthcare infrastructure sector.

Operator: Hello, everyone. Thank you for joining us, and welcome to the American Healthcare REIT's Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Conference Call. I will now hand the conference over to Alan Peterson, Vice President of Investor Relations and Finance. Alan, please go ahead. Alan Peterson Good morning. Thank you for joining us for American Healthcare REIT's Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Conference Call. With me today are Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Jeff Hanson; President and Chief Operating Officer, Gabe Willhite; Chief Investment Officer, Stefan Oh; and Chief Financial Officer, Brian Peay. We are also joined this morning by Danny Prosky, a member of our Board of Directors and the company's former President and Chief Executive Officer, who will share some personal reflections later in this call. On today's call, Jeff, Gabe, Stefan and Brian will provide high-level commentary discussing our operational results, financial position, our increased 2026 guidance and other recent news relating to American Healthcare REIT. Following these remarks and Danny's contributions, we will conduct a question-and-answer session. Please be advised that this call will include forward-looking statements. All statements made during this call other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements that are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in these statements. Therefore, you should exercise caution in interpreting and relying on them. I refer you to our SEC filings for a more detailed discussion of the risks that could impact our future operating results, financial condition and prospects. All forward-looking statements speak only as of today, August 7, 2026 or such other dates as may otherwise be specified. We assume no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. During the call, we will discuss certain non-GAAP financial measures, which we believe can be useful in evaluating the company's operating performance. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures discussed on this call to the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP are included in our earnings release, supplemental information package and our filings with the SEC. You can find these documents as well as an audio webcast replay of this conference call on the Investor Relations section of our website at www.americanhealthcarereit.com.
