SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., March 30, 2017
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., March 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Healthcare Trust of America, Inc. (NYSE: HTA), the largest dedicated owner and operator of medical office buildings in the United States, announced today that it has revised the record and pay dates for the previously declared cash dividend that was approved by the Board of Directors for the first quarter ending March 31, 2017. The dividend will now be paid on April 13, 2017, (previously April 11, 2017) to stockholders of record on April 10, 2017 (previously April 3, 2017). This represents an annualized rate of $1.20 per common share and an annualized yield of 3.8% based on HTA's closing share price as of March 28, 2017.
Additionally, the eligible holders of HTA's operating partnership units ("OP Units") will receive a quarterly distribution of $0.30 per OP Unit, which is on par with HTA's common stock dividend described above.
The amount of common stock dividends HTA pays to its stockholders is determined by HTA's board of directors, at its discretion, and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for the payment of distributions, HTA's financial condition, capital expenditure requirements and annual distribution requirements needed to maintain HTA's status as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code. HTA's board of directors may reduce its dividend rate and HTA cannot guarantee the amount of dividends paid in the future, if any.
About HTA
Healthcare Trust of America, Inc. (NYSE: HTA) is the largest dedicated owner and operator of medical office buildings ("MOBs") in the United States, based on gross leasable area ("GLA"). We provide the real estate infrastructure for the integrated delivery of healthcare services in highly desirable locations. Over the last decade, we have invested over $4 billion primarily in MOBs and other healthcare assets comprising almost 18 million square feet of GLA. Our investments are targeted in 20 to 25 key markets that we believe have superior healthcare demographics that support strong, long-term demand for medical office space. We have achieved, and continue to achieve, critical mass within these key markets by expanding our presence through accretive acquisitions, and utilizing our in-house operating expertise through our regionally located property management and leasing platform.
Founded in 2006 and listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 2012, HTA has produced attractive returns for its stockholders that we believe have significantly outperformed the S&P 500 and US REIT indices. More information about HTA can be found on the Company's website at www.htareit.com.
