Medical Properties Trust, Inc., a self-managed Caretrust Reit, was incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on August 27, 2003 for the primary purpose of investing in and owning net leased healthcare facilities throughout the United States. The Company's primary business strategy is to acquire and develop healthcare facilities and lease the facilities to healthcare operating companies on a long-term net lease basis, which requires tenants to bear most of the costs associated with the property. The company also makes mortgage loans to health care operators against real estate assets.
