PASADENA, Calif. , March 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (NYSE: ARE) today announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.27 per common share for the first quarter of 2024. The dividend is payable on April 15, 2024 to shareholders of record on March 28, 2024 . The common stock dividend for the 12 months ending March 31, 2024 of $5.02 per common share represents an increase of 24 cents , or 5 percent, over the 12 months ended March 31, 2023 .

The dividend allows the company to share its continued high-quality, strong and increasing net cash provided by operating activities with its common shareholders while retaining a significant portion for reinvestment into its highly leased pipeline of new Class A/A+ development and redevelopment projects. For the five-year period ending December 31, 2024 , the company expects to generate for reinvestment an aggregate $2.1 billion of net cash provided by operating activities after dividends. ¹ Additionally, its dividend payout ratio (quarterly common stock dividends divided by quarterly funds from operations) remains favorably low at 56 percent for the three months ended December 31, 2023. Growth in the company's net cash provided by operating activities continues to generate opportunities to increase the company's quarterly cash dividend per common share while maintaining a low FFO payout ratio.
