Moody’s: Healthcare Trust of America view to negative

Moody's Investors Service said it affirmed Healthcare Trust of America, LP's Baa2 issuer and senior unsecured debt ratings following the announcement that Healthcare Trust of America, Inc. (HTA), the parent REIT, entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Duke Realty's medical office building portfolio and revised the outlook to negative from stable.

The negative outlook reflects Moody's view that integration of such a large portfolio poses risks and will require additional resources and meaningful management attention over the next 12 to 18 months.
