These spaces were originally targeted for a future change in use at acquisition, but we instead renewed them with a lower capital investment while we continue to evaluate options to convert these spaces in the future, subject to market conditions. Excluding this lease, rental rate changes for renewed/re-leased space for 3Q24 were 13.0% and 2.3% (cash basis). |

Refer to "Definitions and reconciliations" in the Supplemental Information for additional details. |
(2) |
Excludes unrealized gains or losses on non-real estate investments after September 30, 2024 that are required to be recognized in earnings and are excluded from funds from operations per share, as adjusted. |
(3) |
Includes $37.1 million of gain on sales of real estate recognized in October 2024. Refer to "Dispositions" in the Earnings Press Release for additional details. |
(4) |
Includes $106.8 million of real estate impairments recognized in October 2024. Refer to "Subsequent Events" in the Earnings Press Release for additional details. |
(5) |
We expect to fund our remaining capital requirements for the year ending December 31, 2024 with real estate dispositions. As of October 21, 2024, we completed real estate dispositions aggregating $319.2 million, have additional pending transactions subject to (i) non-refundable deposits aggregating $577.2 million and (ii) executed letters of intent and/or purchase and sale agreements aggregating $602.5 million and forward equity sales agreements aggregating $28 million, which in aggregate, represents 98% of the $1.55 billion midpoint of our guidance range. We do not expect to issue additional equity in 2024 beyond the existing forward equity sales agreements outstanding. |
(6) |
In July 2024, we executed an amendment to our existing ground lease agreement at the Alexandria Technology Square® mega campus in our Cambridge submarket, which requires that we prepay our entire rent obligation for the extended lease term aggregating $270.0 million in two equal installments during the fourth quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025. |
(7) |
The increase in cash expected to be held at December 31, 2024 is primarily due to changes in the mix and timing of pending dispositions that are subject to non-refundable deposits or subject to executed letters of intent and/or purchase and sale agreements that are expected to close in 4Q24. This cash is expected to reduce our 2025 debt capital needs. |
(8) |
Represents $1.0 billion of unsecured senior notes payable issued in February 2024. Subject to market conditions, we may seek additional opportunities in 2024 to fund all or a portion of the proceeds necessary for the repayment of our $600.0 million of 3.45% unsecured senior notes payable due on April 30, 2025 through the issuance of additional unsecured senior notes payable that is not assumed in our current 2024 guidance. |
(9) |
Reduction in the midpoint of our guidance range for straight-line rent revenue by $22 million is primarily attributable to (i) the write-off of a deferred rent receivable of $9 million related to the lease termination and a payment of $10 million from a tenant at 409 Illinois Street in our Mission Bay submarket, a 234,249 RSF property owned by our consolidated real estate joint venture for which we have an ownership interest of 25%, and (ii) a change in the expected stabilization date from 4Q24 to 1Q25 at our fully leased development project at 230 Harriet Tubman Way in our South San Francisco submarket as reported in our 2Q24 Earnings Press Release and Supplemental Information. |
(10) |
Reduction in the midpoint of our guidance range for general and administrative expense by $5 million is primarily attributable to the realization of savings associated with overall efficiencies, including enhanced cost control measures, incremental use of technology, streamlined processes, and optimization of execution in connection with the sale of non-core assets not integral to our mega campus strategy. |
(11) |
Represents realized gains and losses included in funds from operations per share – diluted, as adjusted, and excludes significant impairments realized on non-real estate investments, if any. Refer to "Investments" in the Supplemental Information for additional details. |

Upon completion of the sale, we recognized a gain on sale of real estate aggregating $21.5 million. |
(2) |
The property was leased to a single tenant with a July 2024 lease expiration and had annual net operating income of $18.6 million based on 2Q24 annualized. This property was previously considered to be a potential development project upon expiration of the in-place non-laboratory space lease. |
(3) |
Dispositions completed during the three months ended September 30, 2024 had annual net operating income of $26.5 million (based on 2Q24 annualized) with a weighted-average disposition date of July 28, 2024 (weighted by net operating income for 2Q24 annualized). |
(4) |
Demonstrating the long-term enduring value of our laboratory facilities, Alexandria successfully operated our only asset in the Northern Virginia submarket from its acquisition in 1997 (prior to our IPO) through its sale in October 2024. Upon completion of the sale, we recognized a gain on sale of real estate aggregating $37.1 million. |
(5) |
Refer to "Subsequent events" in the Earnings Press Release for additional details. |
(6) |
Pending dispositions subsequent to October 21, 2024 have estimated annual net operating income of approximately $95.8 million (based on 3Q24 annualized) with a weighted-average non-core estimated stand-alone disposition date of December 5, 2024 (weighted by net operating income for 3Q24 annualized). Approximately half of our pending dispositions are non-core stabilized stand-alone properties with weighted-average capitalization rates of 8.5% and 7.0% (cash basis), and the remaining half are land and non-stabilized properties that have vacancy or significant near-term lease expirations that will require capital to re-tenant, including one building with approximately 72% of non-laboratory space. |

Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (NYSE: ARE), an S&P 500® company, is a best-in-class, mission-driven life science REIT making a positive and lasting impact on the world. As the pioneer of the life science real estate niche with our founding in 1994, Alexandria is the preeminent and longest-tenured owner, operator, and developer of collaborative mega campuses in AAA life science innovation cluster locations, including Greater Boston, the San Francisco Bay Area, San Diego, Seattle, Maryland, Research Triangle, and New York City. As of September 30, 2024, Alexandria has a total market capitalization of $33.1 billion and an asset base in North America that includes 41.8 million RSF of operating properties, 5.3 million RSF of Class A/A+ properties undergoing construction, and one committed near-term project expected to commence construction in the next two years. Alexandria has a longstanding and proven track record of developing Class A/A+ properties clustered in mega campuses that provide our innovative tenants with highly dynamic and collaborative environments that enhance their ability to successfully recruit and retain world-class talent and inspire productivity, efficiency, creativity, and success. Alexandria also provides strategic capital to transformative life science companies through our venture capital platform. We believe our unique business model and diligent underwriting ensure a high-quality and diverse tenant base that results in higher occupancy levels, longer lease terms, higher rental income, higher returns, and greater long-term asset value.
