Item 8.01. Other Events.

Health Care Property Investors, Inc. (“HCP”) is re-issuing its historical financial statements to reflect additional properties in discontinued operations in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“FAS 144”). During the three months ended March 31, 2006, HCP classified five additional properties as held for sale in accordance with FAS 144 and has reported revenue, expenses and net gains from the sale of these properties as discontinued operations for each period presented. Under guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the same reclassification as discontinued operations required by FAS 144 following the sale of a property or a property designated as held for sale is required for previously issued annual financial statements for each of the three most recent fiscal years, if those financials are incorporated by reference in a subsequent registration statement filed with the SEC made the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, even though those financial statements relate to periods prior to the date of the sale. This reclassification has no effect on HCP’s reported net income available to common shareholders.

Accordingly, this Current Report on Form 8-K updates Items 6, 7 and 8 of HCP’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K to reflect the additional properties classified as held for sale during the three months ended March 31, 2006. The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K is presented as of December 31, 2005. No attempt has been made to update matters in the Form 10-K except to the extent expressly provided above.

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
