Boardwalk Real Estate Investment Trust

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the Boardwalk Real Estate Investment Trust First Quarter 2024 Earnings Conference Call. At this time, all lines are in a listen-only mode. Following the presentation, we will conduct a question-and-answer session. If at any time during this call you require immediate assistance, please press star zero for the operator. This call is being recorded on May 8, 2024. I would now like to turn the conference over to Eric Bowers, VP of Finance and Investment Relations. Please go ahead.

Thank you, Ludi, and welcome to the BoardWalk REIT 2024 First Quarter Results Conference Call. With me here today are Sam Kolias, Chief Executive Officer, James Ha, President, Lisa Smandic, Chief Financial Officer, Samantha Kolias-Gunn, Senior VP of Corporate Development and Governance, and Samantha Adams, Senior VP of Investments. We would like to acknowledge, on behalf of BoardWalk, the treaties and traditional territories across our operations and express gratitude and respect for the land we are gathered on today and we now know as Canada. We respect Indigenous peoples and communities as the original stewards of this land. We come with respect for this land that we are on today for all the people who have and continue to reside here and the rich diversity of First Nation, Inuit and Metis peoples. Before we get to our results, please note that this call is being broadly distributed by way of webcast. If you have not already done so, please visit bwalk.com slash investors, where you will find the link to today's presentation as well as PDF files of the trust financial statements, MD&A, and quarterly report. Starting on slide two, we would like to remind our listeners that certain statements in this call and presentation may be considered forward-looking statements. Although the expectations set forth in such statements are based on reasonable assumptions, BoardWalk's future operation and its actual performance may differ materially from those in any forward-looking statement. Additional information that could cause actual results to defer materially from these statements are detailed in BoardWalk's publicly filed documents. I would like to now turn the call over to Sam Collius.

Thank you, Eric, and welcome everyone to our Q1 2024 conference call, and especially a very warm welcome to our new Senior Vice President, Investments, Samantha Adams, and our new Corporate Counsel, Mandani Somayaji. Starting on slide four, our continued strong performance with our GAAP and non-GAAP measures of FFO per unit, profit, and net asset value and unit holder's equity seen an increase. Slide five, our culture. From our humble beginnings 40 years ago in 1984, our resident members are at the top of our organization. Our leaders put our team first, and our team puts our resident members first. Guided by the golden rule, we have a peak performing customer service culture that creates exceptional results. I would like to now pass it over to Samantha Collius-Gap.
