Physicians Realty Trust Increases and Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend and Announces Date for Second Quarter 2017 Earnings Release and Conference Call

Physicians Realty Trust (NYSE:DOC) (the “Company”) announced today that the Company’s Board of Trustees has authorized and the Company has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.230 per common share and unit for the quarter ending June 30, 2017, an increase of $0.005 per share over the previous quarter.

“Today we announce the 16th consecutive quarterly dividend to be paid by Physicians Realty Trust. Due to the strong and consistent performance of our team and high quality medical office building portfolio, we are pleased to provide the first increase in our quarterly dividend to be distributed to our shareholders. Investors from around the world are recognizing the value of reliable, growing cash flows generated by high quality outpatient care medical office facilities leased to healthcare systems and physicians. We are excited about our pipeline, our strong balance sheet, and our prospects for the future. Our strategy of building the best medical office portfolio, primarily through off-market acquisitions directly with the hospitals and physicians, is working well. When hospitals and physicians have a choice of landlord, they are more often choosing to work with Physicians Realty Trust. We are humbled and proud of the confidence and trust health systems have in us, and believe it will continue to provide bigger and better future opportunities. We look forward to discussing our second quarter 2017 results in August,” said John T. Thomas, President and Chief Executive Officer.

The dividend will be payable on July 18, 2017, to common shareholders and unit holders of record on July 3, 2017.
