History
Realty Income Corporation was founded in 1969 by William E. Clark and Evelyn J. Clark.[5] Its first acquisition was a Taco Bell restaurant in early 1970.[5]
The company used cash to purchase land needed for stores that required real estate to run, and then leased the property to the stores long term.[6]
In 1994, the company became a public company via an initial public offering.[1]
In 1997, William E. Clark, Jr., retired as CEO and was succeeded by Thomas A. Lewis. In 2013, John P. Case succeeded Mr. Lewis as CEO of the company.[7] In 2009, Clark retired as chairman.[8]
In 2013, the company acquired American Realty Capital Trust, founded by Nicholas Schorsch, in a $2.95 billion transaction.[9][10]
In 2015, the company was added to the S&P 500[11] and the S&P High Yield Dividend Aristocrats index.[12]
In 2018, Sumit Roy became the company's CEO.[13]
In 2019, the company completed a sale-leaseback transaction for 12 properties of the United Kingdom supermarket chain Sainsbury's. This was the company's first purchase of property outside the United States.[14]
On November 1, 2021, the company acquired VEREIT.[15]
