David Gladstone
Thank you, Claudia, for that introduction. This is the quarterly conference call for shareholders and analysts of Gladstone Capital; NASDAQ trading symbol, GLAD. Thank you all for calling in. We are always happy to talk to shareholders about our company. I wish we could do it more often. We just do it once a quarter. I hope you'll all sign up for email notices, so you can get information directly from the company. And please remember that if you are ever in the Washington DC area, you all have an open invitation to visit us here in Mclean, Virginia, just outside of Washington DC. Please stop by, say hello, and see a lot of fine people working for you.
And I need to read the statement of forward-looking statements. This conference call may include statements that may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1993. The Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including statements with regard to the future performance of the company. These forward-looking statements inherently involve certain risks and uncertainties even though they are based on our current plans. We believe the plans to be reasonable. There are many factors that may cause our actual results to be materially different from the future results that are expressed and implied by the forward-looking statements, including those factors listed under the caption Risk Factors in our 10-K and 10-Q filings and in our prospectuses as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and those can be found on our website at www.GladstoneCapital.com and also on the SEC web site.
The company undertakes no obligations to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Well, we will start with our President of the Fund, Chip Stelljes. Chip is also the Chief Investment Officer of all the Gladstone companies. He will cover a lot of ground here. Chip, please give us your report.
