TOLEDO, Ohio , June 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Welltower Inc. (NYSE: WELL ) ("Welltower" or the "Company") today announced that it expects to raise its quarterly common stock dividend to $0.85 per share, beginning with the second quarter of 2026. The declaration and payment of any future dividend remains subject to further review and approval by the Board. "Following low double-digit increases to our common stock dividend in each of the past two years, we are pleased to report that the Board has approved a further mid-teens percentage increase to our dividend. This action not only reflects the Company's low dividend payout ratio driven by strong cash flow per share growth in recent years, but also the Board's confidence regarding outsized levels of growth in the coming years supported by extraordinary balance sheet strength," stated Shankh Mitra, Welltower's Chief Executive Officer. He continued, "While strong secular tailwinds are expected to propel our business going forward, the Company's growth is expected to be meaningfully amplified by the digital transformation of our portfolio through the Welltower Business System, our end-to-end operating and technology platform, and an expanding capital deployment opportunity set. In fact, even after completing approximately $11 billion of net investment activity in 2025 and $10.5 billion of closed or announced investment activity through the first four months of 2026, our investment pipeline has never been stronger. While asset prices have bounced off pandemic lows, our ability to drive cash flow growth post-acquisition has meaningfully improved over the past year by leveraging the Welltower Business System and through the joint efforts of our world-class technology talent and core operating partners. As a result, we expect unlevered returns on acquisitions that are comparable to, if not slightly higher than, returns achieved ... Full story available on Benzinga.com

Mumbai (PTI): The rupee depreciated 10 paise to close at 94.95 (provisional) against the US dollar on Monday, amid renewed geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran and surge in crude oil prices. Forex traders said the strength of the American currency in the overseas market and Israel-Lebanon tensions also deteriorated global risk sentiments. At the interbank foreign exchange market, the rupee opened at 94.93 against the US dollar, then touched an intraday high of 94.73 and a low of 95.03 during the day. At the end of Monday's trading session, the rupee was quoted at 94.95 (provisional), down 10 paise from its previous close. On Friday, the rupee appreciated 73 paise to close at 94.85 against the US dollar on suspected interventions by the RBI. "We expect the rupee to trade with a slight negative bias on renewed geopolitical tensions and an overnight surge in crude oil prices. A strong dollar and rising US treasury yields may also weigh on the rupee," said Anuj Choudhary, Research Analyst at Mirae Asset ShareKhan. Choudhary further noted that any continued peace talks may prevent a sharp fall. "USDINR spot price is expected to trade in a range of 94.60 to 95.30," he added.
