Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Debt | Debt Bank Line of Credit and Term Loans On May 23, 2019, the Company executed a $2.5 billion unsecured revolving line of credit facility, with a maturity date of May 23, 2023 and two six-month extension options, subject to certain customary conditions. Also in May 2019, the Company entered into a $250 million unsecured term loan facility, with a maturity date of May 23, 2024 (the “2019 Term Loan”). In July 2021, the Company repaid the $250 million 2019 Term Loan. In September 2021, the Company executed an amended and restated unsecured revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Facility”), to increase total revolving commitments from $2.5 billion to $3.0 billion and extend the maturity date to January 20, 2026. This maturity date may be further extended pursuant to two six-month extension options, subject to certain customary conditions. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility accrue interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin that depends on the credit ratings of the Company’s senior unsecured long-term debt. The Company also pays a facility fee on the entire revolving commitment that depends on its credit ratings. Additionally, the Revolving Facility includes a sustainability-linked pricing component whereby the applicable margin may be reduced by up to 0.025% based on the Company’s achievement of specified sustainability-linked metrics, subject to certain conditions. Based on the Company’s credit ratings at December 31, 2022, and inclusive of achievement of a sustainability-linked metric during the year ended December 31, 2021, the margin on the Revolving Facility was 0.75% and the facility fee was 0.15%. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had no balance outstanding under the Revolving Facility. The Revolving Facility includes a feature that allows the Company to increase the borrowing capacity by an aggregate amount of up to $750 million, subject to securing additional commitments. Further, the Revolving Facility includes customary LIBOR replacement language, including, but not limited to, the use of rates based on SOFR. The Revolving Facility also contains certain financial restrictions and other customary requirements, including financial covenants and cross-default provisions to other indebtedness. Among other things, these covenants, using terms defined in the agreement: (i) limit the ratio of Enterprise Total Indebtedness to Enterprise Gross Asset Value to 60%; (ii) limit the ratio of Enterprise Secured Debt to Enterprise Gross Asset Value to 40%; (iii) limit the ratio of Enterprise Unsecured Debt to Enterprise Unencumbered Asset Value to 60%; (iv) require a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage ratio of 1.5 times; and (v) require a minimum Consolidated Tangible Net Worth of $7.7 billion. The Company believes it was in compliance with each of these covenants at December 31, 2022. On August 22, 2022, the Company executed a term loan agreement (the “2022 Term Loan Agreement”) that provided for two senior unsecured delayed draw term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $500 million (the “2022 Term Loan Facilities”). The 2022 Term Loan Facilities were available to be drawn from time to time during a 180-day period after closing, subject to customary borrowing conditions. $250 million of the 2022 Term Loan Facilities has an initial stated maturity of 4.5 years, which may be extended for a one-year period subject to certain customary conditions. The other $250 million of the 2022 Term Loan Facilities has a stated maturity of 5 years with no option to extend. In October 2022, the entirety of the $500 million under the 2022 Term Loan Facilities was drawn. Therefore, at December 31, 2022, the Company had $500 million outstanding under the 2022 Term Loan Facilities. Loans outstanding under the 2022 Term Loan Facilities accrue interest at adjusted SOFR plus a margin that depends on the credit ratings of the Company’s senior unsecured long-term debt. The 2022 Term Loan Agreement also includes a sustainability-linked pricing component whereby the applicable margin under the 2022 Term Loan Facilities may be reduced by 0.01% based on the Company’s achievement of specified sustainability-linked metrics. Based on the Company’s credit ratings as of December 31, 2022, the margin on the 2022 Term Loan Facilities was 0.85%. The 2022 Term Loan Agreement includes a feature that allows the Company to increase the borrowing capacity by an aggregate amount of up to an additional $500 million, subject to securing additional commitments. The 2022 Term Loan Agreement also contains certain financial restrictions and other customary requirements, including financial covenants and cross-default provisions to other indebtedness. Among other things, these covenants, using terms defined in the agreement: (i) limit the ratio of Enterprise Total Indebtedness to Enterprise Gross Asset Value to 60%; (ii) limit the ratio of Enterprise Secured Debt to Enterprise Gross Asset Value to 40%; (iii) limit the ratio of Enterprise Unsecured Debt to Enterprise Unencumbered Asset Value to 60%; (iv) require a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage ratio of 1.5 times; and (v) require a minimum Consolidated Tangible Net Worth of $7.7 billion. The Company believes it was in compliance with each of these covenants at December 31, 2022. In August 2022, the Company entered into two forward-starting interest rate swap instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges (see Note 22). The 2022 Term Loan Facilities associated with these interest rate swap instruments are reported as fixed rate debt due to the Company having effectively established a fixed interest rate for the underlying debt instruments. Based on the Company’s credit ratings as of December 31, 2022, the 2022 Term Loan Facilities had a blended fixed effective interest rate of 3.77%, inclusive of the impact of these interest rate swap instruments and amortization of the related debt issuance costs. Commercial Paper Program In September 2019, the Company established an unsecured commercial paper program (the “Commercial Paper Program”). Under the terms of the Commercial Paper Program, the Company may issue, from time to time, unsecured short-term debt securities with varying maturities. Amounts available under the Commercial Paper Program may be borrowed, repaid, and re-borrowed from time to time. At December 31, 2021, the maximum aggregate face or principal amount that could be outstanding at any one time was $1.5 billion. In July 2022, the Company increased the maximum aggregate face or principal amount that can be outstanding at any one time to $2.0 billion. Amounts borrowed under the Commercial Paper Program will be sold on terms that are customary for the U.S. commercial paper market and will be at least equal in right of payment with all of the Company’s other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The Company uses its Revolving Facility as a liquidity backstop for the repayment of unsecured short-term debt securities issued under the Commercial Paper Program. At December 31, 2022, the Company had $996 million of securities outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program, with original maturities of approximately two months and a weighted average interest rate of 4.90%. At December 31, 2021, the Company had $1.17 billion of securities outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program, with original maturities of approximately two months and a weighted average interest rate of 0.32%. Senior Unsecured Notes At each of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had senior unsecured notes outstanding with an aggregate principal balance of $4.7 billion. The senior unsecured notes contain certain covenants including limitations on debt, maintenance of unencumbered assets, cross-acceleration provisions, and other customary terms. The Company believes it was in compliance with these covenants at December 31, 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company did not issue, repurchase, or redeem any senior unsecured notes. In 2021, the Company completed two green bond offerings. The net proceeds from both green bonds have been allocated to eligible green projects, and the Company may choose to re-allocate net proceeds from such offerings to one or more other eligible green projects.

_______________________________________ (1)As a result of the repurchases and redemptions of these senior unsecured notes, the Company recognized an aggregate $225 million loss on debt extinguishment during the year ended December 31, 2021. (2)As a result of the repurchases and redemptions of these senior unsecured notes, the Company recognized an aggregate $44 million loss on debt extinguishment during the year ended December 31, 2020. Mortgage Debt At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had $345 million and $350 million, respectively, in aggregate principal of mortgage debt outstanding, which was secured by 18 healthcare facilities, with an aggregate carrying value of $793 million and $811 million, respectively. Mortgage debt generally requires monthly principal and interest payments, is collateralized by real estate assets, and is non-recourse. Mortgage debt typically restricts transfer of the encumbered assets, prohibits additional liens, restricts prepayment, requires payment of real estate taxes, requires maintenance of the assets in good condition, requires insurance on the assets, and includes conditions to obtain lender consent to enter into or terminate material leases. Some of the mortgage debt may require tenants or operators to maintain compliance with the applicable leases or operating agreements of such real estate assets. During the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 the Company made aggregate principal repayments of mortgage debt of $5 million, $9 million, and $5 million, respectively (excluding mortgage debt on assets held for sale and discontinued operations). In April 2021, in conjunction with the acquisition of the MOB Portfolio, the Company originated $142 million of secured mortgage debt (see Note 4) that matures in May 2026. In April 2022, the Company terminated its existing interest rate cap instruments associated with this variable rate mortgage debt and entered into two interest rate swap instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges and mature in May 2026 (see Note 22). The variable rate mortgage debt associated with these interest rate swap instruments is reported as fixed rate debt due to the Company having effectively established a fixed interest rate for the underlying debt instrument. Debt Maturities The following table summarizes the Company’s stated debt maturities and scheduled principal repayments at December 31, 2022 (dollars in thousands):

_______________________________________ (1)Commercial Paper Program borrowings are backstopped by the Revolving Facility. As such, the Company calculates the weighted average remaining term of its Commercial Paper Program borrowings using the maturity date of the Revolving Facility. (2)Effective interest rates on the senior unsecured notes range from 1.54% to 6.87% with a weighted average effective interest rate of 3.37% and a weighted average maturity of 6 years. (3)Effective interest rates on the mortgage debt range from 3.44% to 7.93% with a weighted average effective interest rate of 4.33% and a weighted average maturity of 3 years. These interest rates include the impact of designated interest rate swap instruments, which effectively fix the interest rate on certain variable rate debt.
