VENTAS REPORTS FIRST QUARTER NORMALIZED FFO OF $0.67 PER DILUTED SHARE
Ventas Continues to Build Liquidity and Financial Strength with Multiple Capital Markets Transactions
Successful Equity Raise and Debt Offering Result in 2009 Normalized FFO Guidance of
$2.48 to $2.58 Per Diluted Common Share
CHICAGO, IL (May 5, 2009) – Ventas, Inc. (NYSE: VTR) (“Ventas” or the “Company”) said today that first quarter 2009 normalized Funds From Operations (“FFO”) increased five percent to $95.7 million, from $91.5 million for the comparable 2008 period. Normalized FFO per diluted common share was $0.67 in the first quarter of 2009, even with the comparable 2008 period.
“We had an excellent first quarter, with seven percent growth in our cash flow from operations, and our capital raising activities are building strength on strength,” Ventas Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Debra A. Cafaro said. “In addition, our recent agreement with our valued tenant Kindred Healthcare to renew its leases for 109 healthcare assets until 2015 enhances the reliability of our future cash flows and continues our increasingly collaborative relationship with Kindred.”
First quarter normalized FFO per share benefited from rental increases from the Company’s triple-net lease portfolio, higher revenues at the Company’s medical office building (“MOB”) operating portfolio, additional investments and lower interest expense, offset in part by lower Net Operating Income after management fees (“NOI”) at the Company’s senior living operating portfolio, the movements in foreign exchange rates and higher weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Weighted average diluted shares outstanding in the first quarter of 2009 were 143.1 million, compared to 136.7 million in 2008. Normalized FFO for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 excludes the net expense (totaling $1.2 million, or $0.01 per share) from merger-related expenses and deal costs and loss on extinguishment of debt, offset by income tax benefit.
FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), for the first quarter of 2009 decreased seven percent to $94.5 million, from $101.3 million in the prior year. First quarter 2009 NAREIT FFO per diluted common share decreased eleven percent to $0.66, from $0.74 a year earlier due to the above stated factors.
SUNRISE PORTFOLIO
Total Portfolio
The Company’s operating portfolio contains 79 seniors housing communities in North America that are managed by Sunrise Senior Living, Inc. (NYSE: SRZ) (“Sunrise”). Ventas owns 100 percent of 19 of these communities and has a partnership share of between 75 percent and 85 percent in the remaining 60 communities, with Sunrise owning the noncontrolling interest in those 60 communities.

NOI for those 79 communities was $30.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, compared to $33.4 million for the comparable 2008 period. The decrease, which was consistent with the Company’s NOI guidance, relates principally to the movements in the Canadian dollar exchange rate, which had an unfavorable impact on NOI of $1.2 million in 2009, and lower revenue in the stabilized portfolio versus the comparable 2008 period.
73 Same-Store Stabilized Community Results
For the 73 Sunrise communities that were stabilized in the first quarters of both 2009 and 2008, total community NOI was $28.3 million in 2009, versus $32.7 million for the comparable 2008 period. Movements in the Canadian dollar exchange rate had an unfavorable impact on NOI of $1.1 million for the first quarter of 2009, compared to the first quarter of 2008.
GAAP NET INCOME
Net income attributable to common stockholders for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 was $74.2 million, or $0.52 per diluted common share, after discontinued operations of $28.3 million, compared with net income attributable to common stockholders for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 of $31.2 million, or $0.23 per diluted common share, after discontinued operations of $1.5 million.

Additional Information
| • | | On March 25, 2009, Ventas prevailed in its request to dismiss all counterclaims brought by HCP, Inc. (“HCP”) against Ventas, with prejudice. On April 8, 2009, HCP filed a motion requesting permission from the Court to amend those counterclaims. Ventas intends to vigorously contest HCP’s motion.

This non-cash interest expense will decrease 2009 FFO per diluted share by approximately $0.01 per share per quarter. As required by GAAP, this additional non-cash interest expense is reflected in the Company’s prior period results, which have been restated for comparability. |

UPDATED 2009 NORMALIZED FFO GUIDANCE
Ventas currently expects its 2009 normalized FFO per diluted share to be between $2.48 and $2.58, as compared to previous 2009 guidance of $2.55 to $2.65 per diluted share. This per share adjustment in expectations is due to the Company’s successful offering of $480 million in equity and senior notes, the extension and amendment of its Credit Facilities, and announced acquisitions and dispositions. The Company continues to expect its 79 high-quality seniors housing assets operated by Sunrise to generate between $110 million and $125 million in NOI for the full year.
“Increasing liquidity, paying off near term maturities and improving our balance sheet create value for our stakeholders that far outweighs the modest earnings adjustment resulting from our successful capital raises,” Cafaro said. “We have shown the ability to access multiple capital markets this year, demonstrating the quality of our assets, the safety of our business model and the size of our platform. As a result, Ventas is well positioned to weather a continued economic downturn and to invest opportunistically and accretively when the time is right.”
The Company’s normalized FFO guidance for all periods assumes that all of the Company’s tenants and borrowers continue to meet all of their obligations to the Company. In addition, the Company’s normalized FFO guidance (and related GAAP earnings projections) excludes (a) gains and losses on the sales of assets, (b) the impact of future unannounced acquisitions or divestitures (including pursuant to tenant options to purchase) and capital transactions, (c) merger-related costs and expenses that are not capitalized under GAAP, including expenses relating to the Company’s lawsuit against HCP, (d) 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 or premiums incurred as a result of early retirement or payment of the Company’s debt, (e) the non-cash effect of income tax benefits or expenses, (f) deal costs and expenses and earnout payments required by GAAP to be expensed rather than capitalized into asset cost, and (g) the reversal or incurrence of contingent liabilities.
The Company’s guidance is based on a number of other assumptions, which 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.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position No. APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)” (“APB 14-1”). APB 14-1 specifies that issuers of convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement) should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. Additionally, on January 1, 2009, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”). SFAS No. 160 changes the reporting for minority interests, which now must be characterized as noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of consolidated equity. The calculation of income and earnings per share continues to be based on income amounts attributable to the parent and is characterized as net income attributable to common stockholders. As required, all prior period amounts have been restated to reflect the adoption of APB 14-1 and SFAS No. 160.

Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. To overcome this problem, the Company considers FFO and FAD appropriate measures of performance of an equity REIT. The Company uses the NAREIT definition of FFO. NAREIT defines FFO as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding

gains (or losses) from sales of property, 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. FAD represents normalized FFO excluding straight-line rental adjustments and routine capital expenditures.
FFO and FAD presented herein are not necessarily comparable to FFO and FAD presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definitions. Neither FFO nor FAD should be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Company’s liquidity, nor is FFO or FAD 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 and FAD should be examined in conjunction with net income as presented elsewhere in this press release.
The Company’s normalized FFO excludes (a) gains and losses on the sales of assets, (b) merger-related costs and expenses that are not capitalized under GAAP, including expenses relating to the Company’s lawsuit against HCP, (c) 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 or premiums incurred as a result of early debt retirement or payment of the Company’s debt, (d) the non-cash effect of income tax benefits, (e) acquisition costs and expenses and earnout payments required by GAAP to be expensed rather than capitalized into asset cost beginning in 2009, and (f) the reversal of contingent liabilities.

The Company considers EBITDA a profitability measure which indicates the Company’s ability to service debt. The Company considers the net debt to pro forma EBITDA ratio a useful measure to evaluate the Company’s ability to pay its indebtedness. EBITDA presented herein is not necessarily comparable to EBITDA presented by other companies due to the fact that not all companies use the same definition. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Company’s liquidity, nor is EBITDA 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, EBITDA should be examined in conjunction with net income as presented elsewhere in this press release.
