Medical Properties Trust, Inc. (MPW) is a self-managed real estate investment trust (REIT) established in 2003. Its core business involves acquiring and developing hospital properties that are then leased back to operators on a net basis. Originating in Birmingham, Alabama, the company has expanded significantly to become one of the foremost global owners of hospital real estate. As of September 30, 2023, its portfolio encompassed 441 facilities and approximately 44,000 licensed beds. More recently, subsequent to the third quarter's close, MPT divested four facilities. Consequently, its current holdings span roughly 43,000 licensed beds across nine countries and three continents. The MPT financing framework offers a strategic advantage, facilitating both property acquisitions and recapitalizations. This model empowers hospital operators to unlock the inherent value in their real estate, channeling these funds into crucial areas like facility modernizations, technological advancements, and other operational investments.

406.25% (EPS-based)
12 months to Jun 30, 2026 (Q2 FY2026)
The share of earnings paid out as dividends over the trailing twelve months (TTM): dividends paid divided by net income across the company's four most recent reported quarters, dated by the latest quarter end. A fiscal-year tag such as FY2025 means only annual figures were available. Lower leaves more cushion; above 100% means paying out more than the company earned. It shows n/a for funds and when net income over the period was negative; for REITs and BDCs it is marked EPS-based, since they are judged on FFO/AFFO or net investment income instead.Years Paying
