NorthWest Healthcare Properties Real Estate Investment Trust Releases Strong Third Quarter 2018 Results and Continued Execution on Strategic Priorities

TORONTO, Nov. 9, 2018 /CNW/ - NorthWest Healthcare Properties Real Estate Investment Trust (the "REIT") (TSX: NWH.UN), Canada's leading global diversified healthcare real estate investment trust, today announced its results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Commenting on recent developments at the REIT, Paul Dalla Lana, CEO, said:

"The third quarter of 2018 was another active period for the REIT highlighted by the acquisition of Hospital Morumbi in Brazil and the successful closing of the Seed Portfolio into the REIT's $2.0 billion (debt & equity) institutional joint venture (the "JV"). During this particularly active moment in Australasian healthcare real estate, closing the JV is an important milestone, as it adds a deep new source of capital to allow the REIT to leverage its market leading platform to execute upon the extensive near-term pipeline of growth opportunities. Meanwhile in the REIT's other global markets, it continues to see significant opportunities to capitalize on its differentiated healthcare real estate platform to grow, particularly in Europe and increasingly within Brazil as the REIT looks to leverage the relative strength of the Canadian dollar to accretively deploy capital. To fully exploit the opportunity, the REIT anticipates attracting additional fee bearing institutional capital to support its growth pipeline. Taken together, these initiatives provide the REIT with significant runway and resources to continue to scale its business in both the near and long-term."

Q3-2018 Financial and Operational Highlights:

In addition to a very busy transactional quarter, the REIT continued to deliver stable financial and operational performance across an expanded 153 property (including subsequent events), 10.8 million square foot diversified healthcare real estate portfolio underpinned by long-term inflation indexed leases. Although the relative strength of the Canadian dollar in all of our international regions negatively impacted third quarter results, strong source currency SP NOI and higher ANZ management fees have resulted in a stable operating result, which is expected to translate into future growth given natural portfolio hedges including inflation indexation.

For the three months ended September 30, 2018, the REIT delivered strong financial and operating results, illustrated by the following:

• Total revenue increased 3.7% in Q3 2018 to $87.0 million from $83.9 million in Q3 2017 primarily driven by net acquisition in Germany, the Netherlands, Canada and Vital Trust;
• Total operating income¹ has increased by 11.8% to $70.9 million over the third quarter of 2017;
• Reported Net Loss of $28.5 million was driven by a one-time adjustment to write-off of $50.1 million of Goodwill related to the sale of the Seed Portfolio;
• Reported and Normalized AFFO per unit for the third quarter 2018 of $0.20 and $0.22 respectively;
• Source currency adjusted SPNOI growth of 4.0% in Q3 2018 as compared to Q3 2017;
• Recognition of a $43.5 million fair value gain in the REIT's total investment property portfolio, driven primarily by gains in Canada and Germany;
• Leverage of 49.4% (55.7% including convertible debentures) at the end of Q3 2018. The REIT continues to target a 40% leverage ratio and expects leverage to decline towards that target over the mid-term;
• Net asset value per unit of $11.09, representing a 7.6% decrease over Q2 2018 primarily driven by currency depreciation. Adjusting for currency appreciation post quarter end, September 30, 2018 NAV per unit would increase to $11.45;
• Strong portfolio occupancy of 96.3% rising 40 bps from Q4 2017 and the international portfolio holding stable above 99% occupancy;
• Weighted average lease expiry of 12.5 years increased by 0.4 years from Q4 2017, underpinned by the international portfolio with a weighted average lease expiry of 16.6 years; and
• The percentage of leases subject to annual indexation² is 72.5% and serves as a strong base to deliver organic growth and a natural hedge in a rising interest rate environment.

During both the third quarter and subsequent to quarter-end, the REIT has continued executing on its committed, low-risk development pipeline, completing accretive debt refinancing and pursuing select accretive acquisitions, including the addition of Hospital Morumbi in Brazil.

Key initiatives include:

• Completed $308 million of transactional activity:
• C$88 million acquisition of Hospital Morumbi in Brazil from Rede D'Or, Brazil's leading private hospital operator. As part of the transaction the REIT agreed to acquire the hospital administration building at the REIT's existing HMB property the ongoing development of a new out-patient care building onsite for a combined $30M along with a renewed 25 year lease for the entire project upon completion. The acquisition of the hospital administration building is subject to normal course conditions and is expected to close in the first half of 2019;
• C$12 million acquisition of Australian development lands;
• C$208 million sale of a 70% interest in three high quality income producing Australian healthcare assets and one development property to the REIT's institutional JV partner.

For the balance of 2018 and building upon strong YTD results and portfolio improvements, the REIT will continue to drive internal growth through completion of its 9 active value-add development projects as well as execute on strategic growth initiatives in each of its regions. In support of the REIT's strategy, healthcare industry trends remain constructive globally with increasing levels of institutional investment validating the sector's defensive characteristics and growth opportunities.
