Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. (NYSE:BNL) ("Broadstone," "BNL," the "Company," "we," "our," or "us"), today provided an update on its healthcare portfolio simplification strategy through June 30, 2024. Additionally, the Company announced that it will release its financial and operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, after the market closes on Tuesday, July 30, 2024, and host its earnings conference call and audio webcast on Wednesday, July 31, 2024, at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time.

JULY 2024 HEALTHCARE PORTFOLIO SIMPLIFICATION STRATEGY UPDATE

Through June 30, 2024 and as previously reported, we have sold 38 clinically-oriented healthcare properties for gross proceeds of $262.2 million at a weighted average capitalization rate of 7.84%.
As of July 2, 2024, a third-party purchaser has completed due diligence procedures with respect to the purchase of an additional 15 clinically-oriented healthcare properties from the Company pursuant to a previously executed purchase and sale agreement (the "Portfolio Sale"). The Company anticipates the Portfolio Sale transaction will close in two separate tranches in July and October 2024 for gross proceeds of $80.3 million at a weighted average capitalization rate of 7.96%. Based on ABR at the time of our initial announcement of the healthcare portfolio simplification strategy, the Portfolio Sale represents an additional 15% of our planned healthcare simplification strategy, completing nearly all previously planned healthcare dispositions for 2024.
Following the closing of the Portfolio Sale, our healthcare dispositions would total $342.5 million year-to-date at a weighted average capitalization rate of 7.87%, which we anticipate will be fully redeployed based on actual and committed investments. With these sales and successful redeployment efforts completed to-date, we anticipate a reduction in our healthcare exposure from 17.6% of our ABR at the end of 2023 to 11.3%.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

"This portfolio sale marks a significant milestone in our healthcare portfolio simplification strategy, and once closed, will complete a substantial majority of our planned healthcare dispositions for 2024. I couldn't be more pleased with the team's ability to execute on these sales and remain highly optimistic in our ability to redeploy proceeds into high quality industrial, retail, and restaurant assets," said John Moragne, BNL's Chief Executive Officer.
