American Healthcare REIT (AHR) Stock Price, News & Analysis

Company Overview

American Healthcare REIT, Inc. (NYSE: AHR) was a publicly traded real estate investment trust focused on acquiring, owning and managing healthcare‐related properties across the United States. The company’s portfolio spanned senior housing communities, skilled nursing facilities, medical office buildings and outpatient care centers, all operated under long‐term net lease or triple‐net lease structures designed to provide stable, predictable rental income.

Employing a strategy of partnering with established healthcare operators, American Healthcare REIT targeted properties in both major metropolitan areas and high‐growth secondary markets to capitalize on demographic trends such as an aging population and increased demand for outpatient services. Its investments were structured to align tenant incentives with property upkeep and capital improvements, supporting consistent occupancy and operating performance.

Founded in 2015, American Healthcare REIT expanded primarily through disciplined acquisitions and selective joint ventures with leading senior housing and post‐acute care providers. The company’s management leveraged deep industry relationships to source off‐market opportunities and to negotiate long‐term lease agreements featuring creditworthy healthcare tenants.

In 2019, American Healthcare REIT rebranded as CareTrust REIT to better reflect an evolving focus that included life science and medical office assets alongside its senior housing base. The organization’s leadership team was headed by President and Chief Executive Officer David D. Feuer, supported by senior executives with extensive experience in healthcare real estate investment and operations.
