The healthcare REIT Welltower Inc. has recently made several significant strides in its operations and financial performance. In their Q1 2025 results, Welltower reported a surge and outperformed expectations, while maintaining the quarterly dividend and achieving strong FFO growth. This further bolstered their position in the market, triggering a positive response that lifted the shares and consequently resulted in institutions like Evercore ISI Group and Wells Fargo raising their price target for Welltower (WELL) to $157. Partnerships and acquisitions also made the news with the announcement of the $4.6B deal to acquire Amica Senior Lifestyles portfolio. Welltower released the FY 2025 earnings guidance, increasing their dividend and 2025 earnings guidance following a beat in Q1 earnings, once again reinforcing strength and expansion efforts. The Utah Retirement Systems and the Public Employees Retirement Association of Colorado significantly boosted their holdings. However, there were sales by several entities including The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company and Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria S.A. Meanwhile, the company rides the senior housing boom and reveals a strong earnings forecast for 2025.
