Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated (HR) announced a leadership transition in its financial division, naming Daniel Gabbay to the position of executive vice president and chief financial officer starting January 12, 2026. The move comes as Austen Helfrich, who has served in the CFO role since October 2024, departs to explore other professional avenues.

Gabbay brings substantial credentials to the role, leveraging nearly two decades of experience in investment banking. His career has been primarily focused on the real estate sector, where he has consistently advised clients on complex financial transactions and capital market strategies. Most recently, Gabbay held the position of managing director within RBC Capital Markets’ real estate investment banking division, where his portfolio concentrated on healthcare REIT coverage and sector-specific advisory services.

The company emphasized that this executive appointment does not alter its previously communicated normalized funds from operations guidance for 2025. This guidance was affirmed during the firm’s third-quarter 2025 financial results announcement, reflecting confidence in the organization’s operational trajectory and financial outlook.

The appointment signals HR’s commitment to strengthening its financial leadership with an individual who possesses deep expertise in both the real estate and healthcare REIT markets, positioning the company for continued stability in its financial operations.
