Insights

AHR uses a 8.1M-share forward equity deal to raise future cash.

American Healthcare REIT has completed the launch of a forward equity offering for 8,100,000 common shares, with a 30-day option for underwriters to buy up to 1,215,000 additional shares. The forward seller borrowed and sold the 8,100,000 shares on November 24, 2025 to hedge the forward purchaser’s exposure under a forward sale agreement dated November 20, 2025.

The company intends, subject to its settlement choices, to physically deliver 8,100,000 shares to the forward purchaser by May 20, 2027 in exchange for cash proceeds per share equal to the public offering price minus underwriting discounts and commissions, with specified adjustments. This structure can defer balance sheet effects until settlement while locking in offering terms agreed at pricing.

The company plans to contribute the net proceeds from settling the forward sale to its operating partnership in exchange for limited partnership units, and the operating partnership expects to use the funds for general corporate purposes, including potential future investments. Actual dilution and capital deployment will depend on the timing and method of settlement within the period ending May 20, 2027.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On November 24, 2025, we closed the public offering of 8,100,000 shares, or the Offering, of our common stock, $0.01 par value per share, or Common Stock. In connection with the Offering, we and American Healthcare REIT Holdings, LP, or our Operating Partnership, entered into an underwriting agreement on November 20, 2025, or the Underwriting Agreement, with RBC Capital Markets, LLC as the underwriter, or in such capacity, the Underwriter, forward seller, or in such capacity, the Forward Seller, and an affiliate thereof as forward purchaser, or in such capacity, the Forward Purchaser, relating to the offer and sale of 8,100,000 shares of Common Stock, on a forward basis. In connection with the Offering, the underwriters were granted an option for 30 days to purchase up to 1,215,000 additional shares of Common Stock. The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants among the parties. These representations, warranties and covenants are not representations of factual information to investors about us and our Operating Partnership or our or its subsidiaries, and the sale of Common Stock pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement is not a representation that there has not been any change in our condition or that of our Operating Partnership.

In connection with the Offering, on November 20, 2025, we entered into a forward sale agreement, or the Forward Sale Agreement, with the Forward Purchaser.

We intend (subject to our right to elect cash or net share settlement subject to certain conditions) to deliver, upon physical settlement of the Forward Sale Agreement on one or more dates specified by us occurring no later than May 20, 2027, an aggregate of 8,100,000 shares of Common Stock to the Forward Purchaser in exchange for cash proceeds per share equal to the applicable forward sale price, which will be the public offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions and subject to certain adjustments as provided in the Forward Sale Agreement. We intend to contribute the net proceeds from the settlement of the Forward Sale Agreement to the Operating Partnership in exchange for units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, and the Operating Partnership intends to use such net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including potential future investments.

The shares were offered and sold in the Offering under a prospectus supplement and related prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to our effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-281488).

A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1 and incorporated herein by reference, and a copy of the Forward Sale Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
