Summary
Welltower entered into a new equity distribution agreement on July 28, 2026, under which it may offer and sell up to $7.5 billion of its common stock through a group of sales agents and forward sale agreements, terminating its prior equity distribution agreement dated October 28, 2025. The company also filed a prospectus supplement to register the resale by a selling stockholder of up to 261,753 shares of common stock issued as consideration for a recent lease amendment.
Key points
- Shares may be sold through sales agents on the New York Stock Exchange at market prices, in block transactions, or by other permitted methods.
- Welltower will not receive proceeds from the sale of borrowed shares by a forward seller, but expects to physically settle forward sale agreements and receive per-share cash proceeds at settlement.
- The offering is registered on Welltower's automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-286204).
- The 8-K includes legal and tax opinions from Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP regarding the ATM shares and the resale shares.
