American Healthcare REIT Publishes Inaugural Corporate Responsibility and TCFD Reports

Report Highlights

The Corporate Responsibility Report outlines AHR's progress across three key areas:

• Corporate Governance: Enhanced Board independence and oversight; establishment of a cross-functional Corporate Responsibility Committee to guide strategy and reporting; continued focus on ethical business practices and data privacy.
  
  
• Environmental Responsibility: Completion of the Company's first Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions inventory; investments in energy-efficient updates across AHR's senior housing and outpatient medical properties; water management initiatives; and expanded waste reduction programs.
  
  
• Social Responsibility: Focus on tenant and resident health, safety and satisfaction; employee attraction and retention through expanded benefits, training, and wellness programs; and community impact initiatives including the continued and recently expanded support for the Alzheimer's Association.

The TCFD Report provides details on AHR's initial climate scenario analysis and approach to climate-related risk management. The report includes an assessment of physical risks, such as extreme weather events, and transition risks, such as building performance standards and regulatory developments, that affect or may affect AHR. In response to its materiality assessments, AHR has taken various actions in recent years, including repositioning the portfolio to reduce exposure to high-risk geographies and standardizing its emissions reporting to enhance the decision-making process for adding further resilience for its diversified healthcare portfolio.

Looking Ahead

In the near- and intermediate-term, AHR plans to continue progressing its corporate responsibility program and reporting by:

• Establish baseline environmental performance data and set measurable improvement targets;
• Expand energy- and water-efficiency initiatives across the portfolio;
• Broaden leadership development and wellness programs for employees; and
• Explore opportunities to participate in recognized corporate responsibility rating frameworks
