UPMC Business Overview & NNN Investment Profile

Investment Grade: S&P A / Moody’s A2 / Fitch A
These are the ratings our database shows for UPMC’s bonds. An investment grade rating is BBB- or higher at S&P and Fitch and Baa3 or higher at Moody’s; see the investment grade guide.

Why UPMC Matters for NNN Investors

UPMC Insurance Services describes itself as the largest medical insurer in western Pennsylvania, and UPMC is closely affiliated with the University of Pittsburgh, which UPMC says has ranked among the top 10 recipients of National Institutes of Health research funding since 1998. Market position does not remove property-level risk, so confirm each facility’s role and remaining lease term.

Lease terms, rent escalations and the tenant or guarantor entity vary by property; confirm in the lease whether the obligor is the UPMC entity that carries the A/A2 ratings or another entity.

Asking cap rates are not closed-sale cap rates. The middle half is the range from the 25th to the 75th percentile of listings. The 10-year Treasury yield is 5.24% as of October 1, 2026 (FRED series DGS10). Ratings are the agency ratings in our ratings database for the entity shown, which may be a parent company; the rating type (for example issuer, senior unsecured debt, long-term debt or revenue bond ratings) varies by company and is shown on each tenant page. A rating applies to a lease only if the rated entity signs or guarantees it, so confirm the tenant and any guarantor in the lease. n/a means no verified rating is on file. Not shown because fewer than 3 active listings with a published cap rate were observed: UPMC, Trinity Health, Piedmont Healthcare, HCA Healthcare.

Pricing varies with building size, remaining lease term, rent and location. The table shows a tenant only when at least three of its active listings have a published asking cap rate.
