These statements are subject to inherent uncertainties in predicting future results. Please refer to AFC Gamma's most recent periodic filings with the SEC for certain conditions and significant factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements and projections. During this call, we will refer to distributable earnings, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Reconciliations to net income, the most comparable GAAP measure can be found in AFC Gamma's earnings release and investor presentation available on AFC Gamma's Web site. The format for today's call is as follows. Dan will provide an overview of our first quarter 2024 performance as well as an update on our portfolio. Robyn will then provide an update on the anticipated spinoff of our commercial real estate portfolio and Brandon will conclude with a summary of our financial results.

We will then open the lines for Q&A. With that, I will now turn the call over to our CEO, Dan Neville.

Daniel Neville: Thank you, Gabe. Good morning, and welcome to AFC's earnings call for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. I would like to thank everyone for joining us today to discuss our results. For the first quarter, AFC generated distributable earnings of $0.49 per basic weighted average share of common stock. As a reminder, distributable earnings is the primary metric the Board considers when declaring quarterly dividends. The Board of Directors declared a fourth consecutive $0.48 dividend which was paid on April 15, 2024, to shareholders of record as of March 31, 2024. Since going public, we have generated distributable earnings that met or exceeded our dividend each quarter and paid out $6.02 in dividends per share. We are increasingly optimistic about the outlook for the cannabis industry.
