Gladstone Commercial Corporation

Greetings and welcome to the Gladstone Commercial Corporation third quarter earnings call. At this time, all participants are in a listen-only mode. A question and answer session will follow the formal presentation. If anyone should require operator assistance, please press star zero on your telephone keypad. As a reminder, this conference is being recorded. It is now my pleasure to introduce your host, David Gladstone. Thank you. You may begin.

Well, thank you all for coming. Calling in, it was a nice introduction. Thank you all for being part of our call. It's obviously early in the morning on the West Coast, so we're going to keep our time at 8.30. Okay, at this time we have you on the phone. I have to talk. We're glad to talk with you, and I'm going to turn you over to Catherine Gerkis. She's Director of Investor Relations, and she's going to provide a brief disclosure regarding certain regulatory matters concerning this call and the report that we're giving today. Catherine, good morning. Come on.

Thank you, David, and good morning. Today's call may include forward-looking statements, which are based on management's estimates, assumptions, and projections. There are no guarantees of future performance, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in these statements, due to various uncertainties, including the risk factors set forth in our SEC filings, which you can find on the Investors page of our website, gladstonecommercial.com. We assume no obligation to update any of these statements unless required by law. Please visit our website for a copy of our Form 10-Q and earnings press release for more detailed information. You can also sign up for our email notification service and find information on how to contact our investor relations department. We are also on X, at Gladstone comp, as well as Facebook and LinkedIn. Keyword for both is the Gladstone Company. Today we'll discuss FFO, which is funds from operations, a non-GAAP accounting term defined as net income excluding the gains or losses from the sale of real estate and any impairment losses on property plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets. We may also discuss poor FFO, which is generally FFO adjusted for certain other non-recurring revenues and expenses. We believe these metrics can be a better indication of our operating results and allow better comparability of our period over period performance. Now let's turn the call over to Buzz Cooper, Gladstone Commercial's CEO and President.
