NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(1) ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Health Care Property Investors, Inc. is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that, together with its consolidated subsidiaries and joint ventures (collectively, “HCP” or the “Company”), invests directly, or through joint ventures and mortgage loans, in health care related properties located throughout the United States.

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Health Care Property Investors, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and joint ventures. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim financial information reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 (the “2003 Annual Report”).

Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any subsequent quarter or the full year. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Management is required to make estimates and assumptions in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company’s 2003 Annual Report includes a summary of significant accounting policies and estimates. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation

In the first quarter of 2003, the Company adopted Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51” (“FIN 46”), for variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. On January 1, 2004, the Company adopted FIN 46 for variable interest entities created before February 1, 2003. Accordingly, the Company presently consolidates all variable interest entities in which it absorbs a majority of the entity’s expected losses, receives a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership, contractual or other financial interests in the entity. For entities that do not qualify as variable interest entities, the Company consolidates those entities that are majority owned and controlled. The adoption of FIN 46 in 2004 for variable interest entities created before February 1, 2003, resulted in the consolidation of five joint ventures effective January 1, 2004, that were previously accounted for under the equity method. The consolidation of these joint ventures did not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

The Company has minority interests in 11 consolidated partnerships that have a limited life. As of September 30, 2004, the estimated settlement value of the minority interests is $6.0 million, which is approximately $4.0 million more than the carrying amount.

Federal Income Taxes

HCP has made an election to qualify, and believes it operates so as to qualify, as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, HCP generally will not be subject to federal income tax as long as distributions to its shareholders equal or exceed its taxable income. However, under the Tax Relief Extension Act of 1999, which became effective on January 1, 2001, HCP is permitted to participate in certain previously precluded activities and still maintain its REIT qualification. These activities must be conducted by entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”). Accordingly, the Company is subject to federal and state income taxes on the income generated within the TRSs. During the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004, income tax expense related to activities of the Company’s TRSs approximated $0.9 million and $1.4 million, respectively, and is included in general and administrative expenses.

Stock Split

As of March 2, 2004, each shareholder of record on February 4, 2004, received one additional share of common stock for each share they owned on such record date resulting from a 2-for-1 stock split in the form of a stock dividend declared on January 22, 2004. The stock split has been reflected in all periods presented.

(2) INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES

HCP Medical Office Portfolio, LLC

The Company is the managing member of HCP Medical Office Portfolio, LLC (“HCP MOP”), and has a 33% equity interest therein. The joint venture is engaged in the acquisition and operation of medical office building properties. Summarized unaudited condensed financial information of HCP MOP follows:

Fees earned by HCP	$	772		$	2,323

Distributions received	$	3,217		$	96,723

HCP MOP acquired 100 properties from MedCap Properties, LLC (“MedCap”) in October 2003 for $460 million, including the assumption of $26 million of mortgage debt at the acquisition date. On January 20, 2004, HCP MOP completed $288 million of mortgage financings of which $254 million is at a weighted average fixed rate of 5.57%, with the balance at a floating rate based on one-month LIBOR plus 1.75%. The Company received $92 million of distributions from the financing.

In connection with the acquisition of properties by HCP MOP from MedCap, the Company acquired five medical office buildings, four of which were under construction. Construction of these properties was completed in the second quarter of 2004. At December 31, 2003, the Company expected these assets to be acquired by HCP MOP upon completion of construction; however, the Company ultimately retained ownership of these assets following the completion of the construction. Accordingly, such assets, with a carrying value of $37.6 million, were reclassified in 2004 to construction in progress from investment in and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures at December 31, 2003.

Tenant improvements, lease acquisition costs and operating expenses of HCP MOP are primarily funded through property operations. The Company may be required to provide additional funding if the joint venture does not have sufficient funds to cover these expenditures. At September 30, 2004, investments in and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet includes outstanding advances to HCP MOP.

Other Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

As of September 30, 2004, the Company had (i) an interest in four joint ventures, ranging from 45% to 50%, that each operates an assisted living facility and (ii) a 6% and 10% initial equity interest, earning a preferred return of 9%, in two joint ventures (subsidiaries of American Retirement Corporation or “ARC”) that each own a retirement living community (the “ARC JVs”).

At December 31, 2003, the Company had a 9.8% interest in five joint ventures that were subsidiaries of ARC, a mezzanine loan of $76.2 million to a subsidiary of ARC that was collateralized by the facilities held by the five joint ventures, and an additional secured loan to ARC of $7.0 million. During July 2004, the Company acquired ARC’s interest in one of the joint ventures, increased its ownership percentage in two of the joint ventures to 90% and changed its ownership interest in the remaining two joint ventures. As part of the transaction, ARC repaid the balance of its mezzanine loan to the Company totaling $82.6 million and entered into a new secured loan with a balance of $5.7 million at September 30, 2004, and purchased an additional 90% interest in an unrelated joint venture. The loans to ARC are included in loans to joint venture partners on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Beginning July 2004, the new 90% owned joint venture and three of the five entities previously accounted for under the equity method are consolidated. As of September 30, 2004, the purchase price allocation is preliminary and is pending information necessary to complete the valuation of certain contingencies.

Prior to the quarter ended September 30, 2004, the Company accrued interest at 16.5% on its mezzanine loan to ARC by reserving the difference between 16.5% and the 19.5% contractual rate. During the quarter ended September 30, 2004, the Company recognized $5.3 million of interest income based on the full repayment of the mezzanine loan. The interest income recognized primarily arose from the reversal of the interest reserve of $4.6 million, which represented the difference between the previous accrual rate of 16.5% and the 19.5% contractual rate.

Summarized unaudited condensed combined financial information of the other unconsolidated joint ventures follows:

HCP’s equity in income	$	149	$	290	$	482	$	454

Distributions received	$	102	$	3,689	$	535	$	4,731

As of September 30, 2004, the Company has guaranteed approximately $7.0 million out of a total of $15.4 million of notes payable for four of the joint ventures. Additionally, the properties owned by the ARC JVs secure $15.9 million of first mortgages. These mortgages have variable and fixed interest rates ranging from 3.6 % to 9.5 % and maturity dates ranging from May 2005 to June 2005.

The Company’s maximum exposure to losses for joint ventures at September 30, 2004 is the carrying amount of the joint venture investments of $58.5 million and an additional $7.0 million resulting from the guarantee of notes payable discussed above. The Company’s exposure may increase if it is required to provide any additional funding to HCP MOP.

(9) EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income applicable to common shares by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated including the effect of potentially dilutive securities. Options to purchase 1.0 million and zero shares of common stock that had an exercise price in excess of the average market price of common stock during the three-month periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, were not included because they are not dilutive. Additionally, 5.1 million and 3.2 million shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of non-managing member units were not included for the three and nine–month periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, since they are not dilutive.

(10) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

At September 30, 2004, the Company had contractual commitments to construct $9.6 million of health care real estate and capital projects.

One of the Company’s hospitals located in Tarzana, California, and operated by Tenet under a lease expiring in February 2009, is affected by State of California Senate Bill 1953 (“SB 1953”), which requires compliance with certain seismic safety building standards for acute care hospital facilities by January 1, 2013. The Company and Tenet continue to review the SB 1953 compliance of this hospital, a plan of action to cause such compliance, the estimated time for completing the same and the cost of performing necessary remediation of the property. The Company cannot currently estimate the potential costs of SB 1953 compliance with respect to the affected hospital or the final allocation of such costs between the Company and the operator. Rent on the hospital was $10.8 million for 2003 and $7.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The carrying amount of the hospital is $79.8 million at September 30, 2004.

On March 12, 2004, James G. Reynolds, the Company’s former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, filed a lawsuit against the Company and Kenneth B. Roath, the Company’s Chairman, and James F. Flaherty III, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a director. Disclosure relating to this lawsuit was included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004, and Current Reports on Form 8-K dated March 12, 2004 and August 24, 2004. As previously reported, the Company settled this lawsuit on August 24, 2004. The settlement included a payment of $2.9 million to Mr. Reynolds of which the Company’s insurance carrier will reimburse the Company approximately $1.25 million. Of the remaining approximately $1.65 million paid by the Company, $750,000 was previously accrued and an incremental charge of approximately $0.9 million was recognized in the third quarter of 2004.

The Company is from time to time a party to legal proceedings, lawsuits and other claims in the ordinary course of business. These claims, even if not meritorious, could force the Company to spend significant financial resources. While the resolution of any of the aforementioned contingencies could materially and adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and cash flows in the period recorded, the Company is not aware of any legal proceedings, claims, or other contingencies that are expected to have, individually or taken together, a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, or financial condition.

(11) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 26, 2004, the Company closed a new $500 million, three-year, unsecured revolving credit facility. The facility is priced at 65 basis points over LIBOR with a 15 basis point facility fee, based upon the Company’s current credit rating. Bank of America Securities LLC and JP Morgan Securities, Inc. acted as joint lead arrangers and joint book managers of the new facility.

OVERVIEW

Health Care Property Investors, Inc. is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that, together with its consolidated subsidiaries and joint ventures (collectively, “HCP” or the “Company”), invests in health care related properties located throughout the United States. Generally, the Company acquires health care facilities and leases them on a long-term basis to health care providers; however, the Company also leases medical office space to providers and physicians on a shorter term basis. In addition, the Company provides mortgage financing on health care facilities.

As of September 30, 2004, the Company had investments in 536 properties located in 43 states, excluding assets which are held for sale. These properties include 29 hospitals, 179 long-term care facilities, 124 assisted living and continuing care retirement communities (“CCRCs”), 180 medical office buildings (“MOBs”) and 24 other health care facilities. The Company’s total investment in these properties, which represents the undepreciated historical cost of real estate and the net carrying amount of unconsolidated joint ventures and mortgage loans, was approximately $3.5 billion at September 30, 2004.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Certain of the Company’s critical accounting policies are complex and involve judgments by management, including the use of estimates and assumptions, which affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the related disclosures. As a result, changes in these estimates and assumptions could significantly affect the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The significant and critical accounting policies used in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements are described in the 2003 Annual Report.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended September 30, 2004 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2003

Income from continuing operations applicable to common shares for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 was $31.0 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, and $30.6 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, respectively. Included in net income applicable to common shares for the three months ended September 30, 2003, are preferred stock redemption charges of $6.8 million, or $0.05 per share on a diluted basis.

Rental income consists of revenue earned under triple net and medical office building lease arrangements. Triple net rental income increased 18.0% to $72.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, compared to $61.4 million in the year ago period. This increase was primarily attributable to acquisitions, lease resets, and contractual escalators. Medical office building rental income was $27.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of 33.2% from $20.9 million in the year ago period. Medical office building operating expenses were $10.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of 36.3% from $7.8 million in the year ago period. These increases were primarily attributable to the purchase of thirteen properties from MedCap Properties, LLC (“MedCap”) in October 2003, four of which were development properties that were completed during the second quarter of 2004.

Equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures was a loss of $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, compared to income of $0.3 million in the year ago period. The decrease was primarily due to the Company’s investment in HCP MOP in October 2003 for which the Company recorded a current period loss of $0.6 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2004, HCP MOP finalized its purchase price allocation and recorded an inception-to-date adjustment of $4.5 million to depreciation expense. At September 30, 2004, 103 properties were held by unconsolidated joint ventures, including HCP MOP, compared to 14 properties at September 30, 2003.

Interest and other income was $11.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of 20.4% from $14.3 million for the same period a year ago. The decrease in interest and other income was primarily due to the repayment of a loan by American Retirement Corporation (“ARC”), net of fees earned from the HCP MOP joint venture of $0.8 million.

Interest expense was $23.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of 6.4% from $21.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003. The increase was primarily due to the assumption of mortgages in conjunction with certain acquisitions in July 2004.

General and administrative expenses were $9.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of 75.1% from $5.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to a charge of $0.9 million in income tax expense on income from certain assets held in a taxable REIT subsidiary, a charge of $0.9 million related to the legal settlement of a lawsuit filed against the Company by its former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer and higher employee compensation and related costs. The settlement included a payment of $2.9 million to Mr. Reynolds

of which the Company’s insurance carrier will reimburse the Company approximately $1.25 million. Out of the remaining approximately $1.65 million paid by the Company, $750,000 was previously accrued and an incremental charge of approximately $0.9 million was recognized in the third quarter of 2004.

Impairment losses included in continuing operations were $5.7 million and zero for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Impairment losses during the three-month period ended September 30, 2004, relate to nine properties. The Company reviews for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to the expected undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the asset. Changes in the expected undiscounted cash flows, such as a change resulting from the expected use of the asset, may cause the Company to record additional impairment losses.

Real estate depreciation and amortization was $22.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of 25.6% from $18.2 million in the year ago period. The increase was due to the acquisition of properties totaling $239.1 million during 2003, and $365.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2004.

Losses from discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2004, were $1.8 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to income from discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2003, of $8.1 million, or $.06 per diluted share. The decrease in income from discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2004, is due to an operating loss from discontinued operations of $0.1 million compared to operating income of $3.0 million in the year ago period and a net loss on real estate dispositions and impairments of $1.7 million, compared to a gain on real estate dispositions of $5.1 million in the year ago period.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2003

Income from continuing operations applicable to common shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 was $98.6 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, and $75.1 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, respectively. Included in net income applicable to common shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 are preferred stock redemption charges of $18.6 million or $0.15 per share on a diluted basis.

Rental income consists of revenue earned under triple net and medical office building lease arrangements. Triple net income increased 13.7% to $202.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, compared to $178.0 million in the year ago period. The increase was primarily attributable to acquisitions, lease resets, and contractual escalators. Medical office building rental income was $79.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of 31.5% from $60.6 million in the year ago period. Medical office building operating expenses were $29.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of 32.4% from $22.2 million in the year ago period. The increases were primarily attributable to the purchase of thirteen properties from MedCap in October 2003, four of which were development properties that were completed during the second quarter of 2004.

Equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures was $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, compared to $0.5 million in the year ago period. The increase was primarily due to the Company’s investment in HCP MOP in October 2003. During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Company recognized $1.1 million of equity in income from HCP MOP. At September 30, 2004, 103 properties were held by unconsolidated joint ventures, including HCP MOP, compared to 14 properties at September 30, 2003.

Interest and other income was $31.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of 7.2% from $33.7 million in the year ago period. The decrease in interest and other income was primarily due to the repayment of outstanding loans by ARC, partially offset by $2.3 million in fees the Company recognized related to HCP MOP for the nine months ended September 30, 2004.

Interest expense was $65.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of 0.3% from $65.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The increase was primarily due to the assumption of mortgages in conjunction with certain acquisitions in July 2004.

General and administrative expenses were $25.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of 54.4% from $16.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to higher employee compensation and related costs, $0.7 million in expenses associated with the Company’s move of its corporate offices to Long Beach, CA, $1.4 million in income tax expense on income from certain assets held in a taxable REIT subsidiary, and a charge of $1.65 million related to the legal settlement of a lawsuit filed against the Company by its former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

Impairment losses included in continuing operations were $6.9 million and zero for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Impairment losses included in continuing operations during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2004, relate to 10 properties. The Company

reviews for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to the expected undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the asset. Changes in the expected undiscounted cash flows, such as a change resulting from the expected use for the asset, may cause the Company to record additional impairment losses.

Real estate depreciation and amortization was $64.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of 17.7% from $54.5 million in the year ago period. The increase is due to the acquisition of properties totaling $239.1 million during 2003, and $365.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2004.

Income from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 was $8.5 million and $5.4 million, respectively. The increase in income from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, is due to a net gain on real estate dispositions and impairments of $6.4 million compared to a net loss on real estate dispositions and impairments of $3.5 million in the year ago period, partially offset by a decline in operating income from discontinued operations of $6.8 million to $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 compared to $8.9 million in the year ago period. Discontinued operations include impairment charges of $9.7 million and $11.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

See Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements regarding commitments and contingencies.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash flows from operating activities represent the primary source of liquidity to fund distributions. The Company’s cash flows from operations are dependent upon the occupancy level of multi-tenant buildings, the tenant’s performance on its lease obligations and the rental rates on leases. Material changes in any of these factors could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations. In order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company must distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Company intends to continue to make regular quarterly distributions to holders of its common and preferred stock. During the first nine months of 2004, the Company issued dividends totaling $165.4 million and $15.8 million to holders of common and preferred stock, respectively. The Company believes that its liquidity and capital resources are adequate to finance its operations for the foreseeable future.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $192.5 million and $194.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, and 2003, respectively. Cash flow from operations reflects increased rental income offset by higher costs and expenses, and changes in receivables, payables, accruals, and deferred income.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $17.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, and principally includes: (i) $120.6 million received from the sale of seven medical office buildings and 13 other health care related facilities, (ii) $222.0 million principally used in the acquisition of a health care laboratory and biotech research facility, 25 long-term care facilities and a medical office building (iii) $92.0 million received from HCP MOP upon the completion of certain mortgage financing, and (iv) principal payments received on loans and other investment activity of $24.3 million.

Net cash used in financing activities was $216.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, and principally includes: (i) the repayment of $87.0 million of senior notes, (ii) payment of common and preferred dividends aggregating $182.4 million, and (iii) net repayments on the Company’s revolving line of credit of $55.2 million. These uses were partially offset by proceeds of $32.1 million and $87.0 million from common stock and senior note issuances, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Company issued and sold 638,000 shares of common stock under its Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (“DRIP”) at an average price per share of $25.09 for proceeds of $16.0 million.

Debt

Because the Company’s anticipated distributions will not allow it to retain sufficient cash to repay all of its debt as it comes due using only cash flows provided by operating activities, the Company intends to repay maturing debt with proceeds from debt and/or equity offerings. In addition, the Company anticipates making future investments in facilities, which will be dependent on the availability of cost-effective sources of capital. The Company uses the public debt and equity markets as its principal source of financing. As of September 30, 2004, our senior debt is rated BBB+ by both Standard & Poor’s and Fitch and Baa2 by Moody’s.

As of September 30, 2004, the Company has the following outstanding debt:

Revolving line of credit—The Company had a revolving line of credit totaling $490 million, which was terminated on October 26, 2004. Borrowings under the line of credit were $142.8 million at September 30, 2004. The weighted average annual interest rate at September 30, 2004 was 2.10%.

Mortgage notes payable—At September 30, 2004, the Company had a total of approximately $196.0 million in mortgage notes payable secured by 41 health care facilities with a carrying amount of approximately $340.8 million. Interest rates on the mortgage notes ranged from 1.07% to 10.63% with a weighted average rate of 7.37% at September 30, 2004. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2004, the Company disposed of $31.4 million in mortgages notes payable through the sale of properties in the first quarter of 2004 and assumed $81.4 million in mortgage notes payable trough acquisitions of properties in July 2004.

Senior notes—At September 30, 2004, the Company had a total of $1.1 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior notes outstanding. Interest rates on the notes ranged from 2.23% to 9.10% with a weighted average rate of 6.53% at September 30, 2004.

Included in senior notes, at September 30, 2004, the Company also had $200 million principal amount of 6.875% Mandatory Par Put Remarketed Securities (“MOPPRS”) due June 8, 2015, which are subject to mandatory tender on June 8, 2005. The MOPPRS contain an option exercisable by the Remarketing Dealer, which derives its value from the yield on ten-year U.S. Treasury rates relative to a fixed strike rate of 5.565%. Generally, the value of the option to the Remarketing Dealer increases as Treasury rates decline and the option’s value to the Remarketing Dealer decreases as Treasury rates rise. The value of this option to the Remarketing Dealer, at rates in effect as of the date of this report, approximates $20.0 million. On June 8, 2005, the Company may be required to repurchase the outstanding MOPPRS at par plus accrued interest, which the Company believes would likely occur if the then-current yield on the ten-year Treasury is above 5.565%. Additionally, in the event that the ten-year Treasury yield is less than 5.565%, the Remarketing Dealer may redeem the securities on June 8, 2005, at par plus accrued interest, and reissue the senior notes at a premium (determined by reference to the value of the option) to par. The coupon interest rate on the reissued notes would be set at an applicable credit spread plus 5.565%.

At September 30, 2004, stockholders’ equity totaled $1.4 billion and the Company’s equity securities had a market value of $3.5 billion. Total debt represents 26.3% and 49.5% of total market and book capitalization, respectively.

Preferred stock

At September 30, 2004, the Company had outstanding 4,000,000 shares of 7.25% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (issuance value of $100 million) and 7,820,000 shares of 7.10% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (issuance value of $195.5 million).

As of September 30, 2004, the Company had $1.5 billion available for future issuances of debt and equity securities under shelf registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These securities may be issued from time to time in the future based on our needs and the then-existing market conditions.

Letters of credit and depository accounts

At September 30, 2004, the Company held approximately $15.8 million in depository accounts and $38.8 million in irrevocable letters of credit from commercial banks to secure a number of tenants’ lease obligations and borrowers’ loan obligations. The Company may draw upon the letters of credit or depository accounts if there are defaults under the related leases or loans. Amounts available under letters of credit could change based upon facility operating conditions and other factors and such changes may be material.

As of September 30, 2004, the Company has guaranteed approximately $7.0 million out of a total of $15.4 million of notes payable for four of the joint ventures. Additionally, the properties owned by the ARC JVs secure $15.9 million of first mortgages. These mortgages have variable and fixed interest rates ranging from 3.6% to 9.5% and maturity dates ranging from May 2005 to June 2005.

The Company’s maximum exposure to losses for joint ventures at September 30, 2004 is the carrying amount of the joint venture investments of $58.5 million and an additional $7.0 million resulting from the guarantee of notes payable discussed above. The Company’s exposure may increase if required to provide any additional funding to HCP MOP.

The Company’s revenue from joint ventures, excluding HCP MOP, represented less than 1% of its revenue less operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004.

Revenue Concentration

Tenet, ARC, and Emeritus accounted for approximately 13.3%, 9.6%, and 5.7% of the Company’s revenue less operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. No other single tenant or operator accounted for more than 5% of the Company’s revenue less operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The Company estimates that cash flow coverage for rents of the seven hospitals operated by Tenet was 2.1x for the twelve month period ended June 30, 2004, compared to 2.9x for the full year 2003, which included the effect of certain Medicare settlements related to 2003 and prior years, and 5.1x for the full year 2002. Cash flow coverages are calculated by the Company based on property level information provided by Tenet without verification and generally are compiled one quarter in arrears. The Company leases nine rehabilitation hospitals to HealthSouth. HealthSouth has indicated that its previously issued financial statements should not be relied upon.

According to public disclosures by Tenet and HealthSouth, each is experiencing significant legal, financial, and regulatory difficulties. The Company cannot predict with certainty the impact, if any, of the outcome of these uncertainties on its consolidated financial statements. The failure or inability of these operators to pay their obligations could materially reduce the Company’s revenues, net income, and cash flows, which could in turn reduce the amount of cash available for the payment of dividends, cause the Company’s stock price to decline and cause the Company to incur impairment charges or a loss on the sale of the properties.

Contractual Obligations

As of September 30, 2004, the Company’s contractual payment obligations were as follows:


	Three Months		2005-2006		2007-2008		More than Five Years		Total
	(In thousands)

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our investments are financed by the sale of common and preferred stock, long-term and medium-term debt, internally generated cash flows, and some short-term bank debt.

We generally have fixed base rent on our leases; in addition, there can be additional rent based on a percentage of increased revenue over specified base period revenue of the properties and/or increases based on inflation indices or other factors. Financing costs are comprised of dividends on common and preferred stock, interest on long-term and medium-term debt and interest on short-term bank debt.

On a more limited basis, we have provided mortgage loans to operators of health care facilities in the normal course of business. All of the mortgage loans receivable have fixed interest rates or interest rates with periodic fixed increases. Therefore, the mortgage loans receivable are all considered to be fixed rate loans, and the current interest rate (the lowest rate) is used in the computation of market risk provided in the following table, if material.

We may assume existing mortgage notes payable as part of an acquisition transaction. Currently we have two mortgage notes payable with variable interest rates; the remaining mortgage notes payable have fixed interest rates or interest rates with fixed periodic increases. The variable rate loans are at interest rates below the current prime rate of 4.75%, and fluctuations are tied to the prime rate or to a rate currently below the prime rate.

At September 30, 2004, we are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $11.9 million of variable rate mortgage notes payable, $25 million of variable rate senior notes payable, and $142.8 million of variable rate bank notes payable on our total investment in properties of $3.5 billion.

At September 30, 2004, the Company also has $200 million principal amount of 6.875% Mandatory Par Put Remarketed Securities (“MOPPRS”) due June 8, 2015, which are subject to mandatory tender on June 8, 2005. The MOPPRS contain an option exercisable by the Remarketing Dealer, which derives its value from the yield on ten-year U.S. Treasury rates relative to a fixed strike rate of 5.565%. Generally, the value of the option to the Remarketing Dealer increases as Treasury rates decline and the option’s value to the Remarketing Dealer decreases as Treasury rates rise. The value of this option to the Remarketing Dealer, at rates in effect as of the date of this report, approximates $20.0 million. On June 8, 2005, the Company may be required to repurchase the outstanding MOPPRS at par plus accrued interest, which the Company believes would likely occur if the then current yield on the ten-year Treasury is above 5.565%. Additionally, in the event that the ten-year Treasury yield is less than 5.565%, the Remarketing Dealer may redeem the securities on June 8, 2005, at par plus accrued interest, and reissue the senior notes at a premium (determined by reference to the value of the option) to par. The coupon interest rate on the reissued notes would be set at an applicable credit spread plus 5.565%.

Fluctuation in the interest rate environment will not affect our future earnings and cash flows on our fixed rate debt until that debt matures and must be replaced or refinanced. Interest rate changes will affect the fair value of the fixed rate instruments. Conversely, changes in interest rates on variable rate debt would change our future earnings and cash flows, but not affect the fair value of those instruments, other than the MOPPRS as described above. Assuming a one percentage point increase in the interest rate related to the variable rate debt including the mortgage notes payable, senior notes payable and the Company’s bank notes payable, and assuming no change in the outstanding balance as of year end, interest expense for 2004 would increase by approximately $1.8 million, or $0.01 per common share on a diluted basis.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Also, we have investments in certain unconsolidated entities that we do not control or manage. Our disclosure controls and procedures with respect to such entities are substantially more limited than those we maintain with respect to our consolidated subsidiaries and HCP MOP, which we manage.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2004. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We have devoted and continue to devote significant time and resources to initiatives intended to improve our internal control over financial reporting. We have undertaken these actions in response to (i) management’s and the Audit Committee’s directives to strengthen internal controls as a result of our growth and increased complexity, and (ii) changes in laws and regulations affecting public companies, including requirements to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 for the year ended December 31, 2004. As part of these initiatives, we recently established an internal audit function, implemented a new information system with significant changes in related processes and procedures, and enhanced our accounting and finance staff. Additionally, in connection with our Section 404 compliance effort, we have begun to address certain internal control deficiencies by, among other things, formalizing and communicating certain policies and procedures, redesigning and integrating systems and processes, strengthening information technology general and application controls, and improving authorization and monitoring controls. All of these initiatives are being conducted under the Audit Committee’s and senior management’s oversight. We can give no assurances that there will not be additional internal control deficiencies that will require addressing or that there will not be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses.

*	Management Contract or Compensatory Plan or Arrangement.

For the purposes of complying with the amendments to the rules governing Form S-8 (effective July 13, 1990) under the Securities Act of 1933, the undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows, which undertaking shall be incorporated by reference into registrant’s Registration Statement on Form S-8 Nos. 33-28483 and 333-90353 filed May 11, 1989 and November 5, 1999, respectively, Form S-8 Nos. 333-54786 and 333-54784 each filed February 1, 2001, and Form S-8 No. 333-108838 filed September 16, 2003.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue

SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
