How to Read This Chart

This chart tracks the historical stock price of Welltower over time. You can switch between daily, weekly, and monthly views and select custom time ranges — from a single day to the full available history. Use the toggle to view price changes in absolute currency terms or as a percentage change relative to the starting date.

Total Return vs. Price Return

The "Total Return" toggle includes reinvested dividends on top of the pure price movement. This is critical because dividends can account for a significant portion of long-term returns. Historically, roughly 40 % of the S&P 500's total return has come from dividends. Always compare total return when evaluating a stock's real performance against a benchmark.

What to Look For

Look for long-term trends (sustained upward or downward movements over months and years), support and resistance levels (price zones where the stock repeatedly bounces or reverses), and volatility (how much the price fluctuates day to day). Comparing Welltower's price chart to a market index like the S&P 500 can reveal whether the stock is outperforming or underperforming the broader market.

Income Statement Key Figures

Revenue and Revenue Growth

Revenue is the starting point of every income statement — it measures the total sales Welltower generates from its core business. Revenue growth (expressed as year-over-year percentage change) is one of the most important indicators of business momentum. Sustained growth above 10 % annually is generally considered strong, while declining revenue is a serious warning sign that demands investigation.

Gross Margin

Gross margin = (Revenue − Cost of Goods Sold) ÷ Revenue. It reveals what percentage of each dollar of revenue Welltower retains after direct production costs. High gross margins (above 50 %) are typical of asset-light businesses like software and brands, while capital-intensive industries like manufacturing often operate below 30 %. Compare Welltower's gross margin to industry peers and track it over time to spot improving or deteriorating pricing power.

EBIT and EBIT Margin

EBIT measures operating profit — what remains after subtracting all operating expenses (including R&D, sales, and administrative costs) from gross profit. The EBIT margin shows this as a percentage of revenue. Because it excludes interest and taxes, EBIT allows fair comparisons between companies with different debt levels and tax jurisdictions. A rising EBIT margin indicates improving operational efficiency.

Net Income and Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Net income is the company's final profit after all expenses, interest, and taxes. Dividing net income by the number of shares outstanding gives you EPS — the single most influential metric in stock valuation. Consistent EPS growth is the primary driver of long-term stock price appreciation. Always check whether EPS growth comes from genuine profit improvement or from share buybacks reducing the share count.

Shares Outstanding

The total number of shares Welltower has issued. A declining share count (through buybacks) boosts EPS and signals management confidence. A rising share count (through stock issuance) dilutes existing shareholders. Always monitor this number alongside EPS to get the full picture of per-share value creation.

Analyst Estimates

The projected figures represent consensus estimates from professional analysts. Compare these forecasts against Welltower's historical growth rates to assess whether expectations are realistic. A company that consistently beats consensus estimates tends to see its stock price rewarded over time, while repeated misses erode investor confidence.

Welltower stock margins

Welltower business model & stock analysis

Welltower Inc is an American company that was founded in 1970 as Health Care REIT and is headquartered in Toledo, Ohio. The company is one of the largest real estate investment trusts (REITs) in the US and specializes in healthcare properties. Welltower's business model is based on acquiring and operating senior living facilities, nursing homes, medical centers, and other healthcare facilities. By acquiring properties specifically designed for the care of older adults, the company generates ongoing rental income. Over the years, Welltower has also expanded its offerings and now provides a wide range of services in the healthcare real estate sector. This includes outpatient health centers, rehabilitation facilities, and hospices. Welltower conducts its business through three main entities: Senior Housing, Outpatient Medical, and Post-Acute Care. The Senior Housing division includes the operation of retirement residences, assisted living, and nursing homes. Outpatient Medical specializes in outpatient medical centers and doctor's offices, while Post-Acute Care focuses on the care of patients recovering from hospital stays. An important part of Welltower's business model is collaborating with healthcare facility operators. The company partners with industry leaders such as Brookdale Senior Living Inc., Genesis Healthcare, and CVS Health Corp. to negotiate long-term lease agreements and operate properties. Welltower is a sustainability-focused company. As one of the first REITs, it is committed to the ESG (environmental, social, and governance) initiative. In recent years, the company has made significant efforts to reduce energy and resource consumption in its facilities and employ environmentally friendly construction practices. In recent years, the company has pursued an expansive growth strategy through several significant acquisitions and sales. In 2018, Welltower acquired operator Quality Care Properties for approximately $3.3 billion, acquiring various types of properties including nursing facilities and medical facilities. The company is also active in Europe and has made several significant acquisitions there in recent years to expand its portfolio.

Welltower SWOT Analysis

Strengths

Welltower Inc has several key strengths that contribute to its success in the real estate investment trust (REIT) industry. Firstly, it boasts a large and diverse portfolio of senior housing, medical office, and post-acute care properties, providing stability and diversification. Secondly, the company has established a strong brand reputation, known for its expertise and high-quality investments in healthcare real estate. Furthermore, Welltower has a robust network of relationships with leading healthcare providers, enabling it to identify and pursue strategic investment opportunities. Lastly, the company benefits from excellent financial resources and a well-capitalized structure, allowing for continued growth and expansion.

Weaknesses

Despite its strengths, Welltower Inc also faces certain weaknesses that could hinder its performance. One weakness is its heavy reliance on external financing, which may expose the company to potential risks associated with accessing capital markets. Additionally, the company's significant exposure to the healthcare industry makes it vulnerable to regulatory changes, reimbursement restrictions, and other industry-specific challenges. Moreover, as a large-scale REIT, Welltower may face challenges in efficiently managing and maintaining its extensive property portfolio.

Opportunities

Welltower Inc has several opportunities for growth and expansion within the REIT industry. With the aging population and increasing demand for senior care services in many countries, the company can capitalize on this trend by further expanding its senior housing portfolio. Additionally, advancements in healthcare technologies and rising demand for specialized medical facilities present opportunities for Welltower to invest in cutting-edge healthcare real estate assets. Furthermore, the company can explore potential partnerships and collaborations with healthcare providers to develop innovative healthcare delivery models.

Threats

Welltower Inc faces several threats that may impact its performance and profitability. The ongoing uncertainty surrounding healthcare policies and potential changes in reimbursement models pose risks to the company's financial stability. Moreover, intense competition within the REIT industry, especially in the healthcare sector, may put pressure on Welltower's market position and rental rates. Additionally, economic downturns and fluctuations in interest rates could negatively affect the overall real estate market, impacting the company's property valuations and investment returns.

Welltower Eulerpool Fair Value

Fair Value Estimate

What Is Fair Value?

Fair value is an estimate of what a stock is truly "worth" based on its financial fundamentals, independent of the current market price. If the calculated fair value is above the current share price, the stock may be undervalued — and vice versa. This chart shows three different fair value approaches so you can cross-check them against each other.

Earnings-Based Fair Value

Calculated by multiplying the current earnings per share (EPS) by the average historical P/E ratio over a selected multi-year period. The smoothing over several years filters out temporary spikes or dips. If this fair value exceeds the market price, it suggests the stock is cheap relative to its earning power.

Example: Fair Value (Earnings) 2022 = EPS 2022 × Average P/E 2019–2021

Revenue-Based Fair Value

Derived by multiplying revenue per share by the average historical price-to-sales ratio. This method is particularly useful for companies with volatile or temporarily depressed earnings, as revenue tends to be more stable than profits. It answers: "At what price has the market historically valued each dollar of this company's sales?"

Example: Fair Value (Revenue) 2022 = Revenue per Share 2022 × Average P/S 2019–2021

Dividend-Based Fair Value

Calculated by dividing the dividend per share by the average historical dividend yield. This approach is most relevant for mature, consistently dividend-paying companies. If the resulting fair value is higher than the current price, it implies the stock offers a better yield than its historical average.

Example: Fair Value (Dividend) 2022 = Dividend per Share 2022 ÷ Average Yield 2019–2021

How to Use This Chart

When all three fair value lines converge above the current price, it strengthens the case that the stock is undervalued. When they diverge, investigate why — it may indicate a structural shift in margins, payout policy, or growth rate. The forward estimates on the right extend the analysis using projected fundamentals, helping you assess whether the current price already reflects future growth expectations.

Welltower annual returns

Annual Return

What This Chart Shows

This chart breaks down 's total annual return into two components: price return (gains or losses from stock price movement) and dividend return (income received from dividend payments). Together, they represent the total return an investor would have earned in each calendar year.

Price Return

Price return measures the percentage change in 's stock price from January 1st to December 31st of each year. Positive bars indicate the stock appreciated; negative bars show a decline. This is the component most investors focus on, but it tells only part of the story — especially for dividend-paying stocks.

Dividend Return

Dividend return represents the income generated from dividends paid during the year, expressed as a percentage of the starting stock price. While it may seem small in any single year (typically 1–4 % for established companies), dividends compound significantly over decades and have historically contributed roughly 40 % of total stock market returns.

What to Look For

Examine how many years showed positive vs. negative returns to gauge consistency. A stock with mostly positive years and small drawdowns suggests lower risk. Also compare 's annual returns to a benchmark index — consistently outperforming the market is a hallmark of a strong investment. Pay attention to the worst years: understanding downside risk is just as important as chasing upside potential.

Welltower shares outstanding
