These forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of, assumptions made by, and information currently available to us. Our actual results will be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties, and other factors that are beyond our control or ability to predict. Although we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, they are not guarantees of future performance, and some will prove to be incorrect. Therefore, our actual future results can be expected to differ from our expectations, and those differences may be material.

With that, I'll turn the call over to David Thompson. Thanks, Steve, and thank you everyone for joining our call today. Starting off with some highlights of our third quarter. We continued to execute on our strategy to grow the multifamily portion of our portfolio. Our development pipeline made additional progress. Our office lease percentage remained stable. We saw a continued strength at our hotel asset, and our liquidity remained strong. First, I'd like to touch on our progress in multifamily. At the end of the third quarter, our overall multifamily occupancy improved to 84.1%, up 20 basis points from the prior quarter. As we've discussed before, we've been focused on growing the multifamily side of our portfolio to achieve more balance between creative office and multifamily assets. We added 696 units to our portfolio earlier this year from the acquisition of two multifamily assets in Oakland and one multifamily property in Los Angeles. Two of those three assets are still in lease-up, and the third asset has significant NOI growth opportunity as the in-place rents are substantially below today's market. We believe the continued lease-up of these assets will continue to improve our funds from operations. Turning to our development pipeline. During the quarter, we made significant progress, most notably in Culver City, where we recently received entitlement to redevelop our office building on Washington Boulevard. I'll provide more details on this exciting update in a moment. In our office segment, our lease percentage remained stable in the third quarter at 84.3%. We executed about 29,000 sq ft of office leases in the quarter, and our office NOI increased by 43% compared to the prior year period. Our third quarter hotel segment NOI decreased compared to the prior period. However, year to date, hotel NOI increased by 27% from the prior year period, a continued strong rebound from the pandemic. Lastly, our lending NOI decreased year-over-year, primarily due to the securitization completed in the first quarter, which increased interest expense attributable to that segment. At the end of the third quarter, we had $19 million of cash on hand, $73 million of availability under our revolver, and we continued to raise Series A-1 preferred stock. Turning back to our development pipeline, we have some positive updates. Starting in Culver City, we received our entitlement to redevelop our single-story office building on Washington Boulevard into a new creative office building. The existing building is about 24,000 sq ft, and the entitlement allows for about 64,000 sq ft, as well as 180 parking stalls. Our plans for this new creative office include a roof deck, bike parking stalls, a locker room and showers for employee use, public art space, a solar PV system, and intended LEED certification. The next phase of the project will be design and permitting work. We're very excited about this potential redevelopment. Culver City is a walkable, supply-constrained, highly desirable submarket that commands some of the highest office rents in Los Angeles. Our property is just a few minutes walk from the light rail and is surrounded by numerous shopping and dining options. Some notable companies in the submarket include Apple, Amazon, HBO, Microsoft, TikTok, Sony, Beats, and more. Work continues at our office to multifamily conversion at 4750 Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles, and we expect to start leasing units in the fourth quarter of 2024. This will add 68 luxury residential units to the portfolio. We believe this is a very attractive project, given its location in Hancock Park, another supply-constrained neighborhood that is adjacent to multimillion-dollar single-family homes. In the Echo Park section of Los Angeles, we're starting construction on our 36-unit multifamily development, which is a joint venture between CMCT and an international institutional investor. This parcel is adjacent to our creative office building at 1910 West Sunset Boulevard, which is now 87% leased, up from 80% a year ago. In Jefferson Park, we believe we'll be able to start construction at 3101 and 3022 Southwestern in 2024. In total, this would add about 120 units. For the balance of our development pipeline, we continue to work to obtain all the necessary approvals as well as complete design work. We believe making progress on this pipeline increases the value of an asset if we elect to sell to another developer, or supports our growth if we elect to develop. As we have previously mentioned, for development assets, we will look to bring in co-investors to increase our diversification and supplement returns by generating fee income when advantageous, just like we've done at 4750 Wilshire. With that, I will turn it over to Steve to provide a further update on the portfolio. Thanks, David. I would like to provide an update on our operating assets, starting with multifamily. On a consolidated basis at quarter end, our multifamily was 84.1% occupied, compared to 83.9% at the end of the second quarter. Occupancy at Channel House in Oakland was 77.5% at the end of the quarter, compared to 81.4% at the end of the second quarter, and occupancy at 1150 Clay in Oakland increased to 90.3%, up from 86.5%. As David mentioned, these premier Class A assets were acquired earlier this year and are in the process of being leased up. There was significant supply growth in the Oakland market from 2018 through last year, which in part allowed us to acquire these assets at a substantial discount to what the replacement cost is today. While we continue to expect it to take some time for this new supply to be fully absorbed, we believe local rents would need to increase dramatically before it is economic to see multifamily buildings start again. The pipeline for development in Oakland is well below the average for the top 25 U.S. markets, so we believe these assets are well positioned for growth. In Echo Park, Los Angeles, at our multifamily asset at 1902 Park, our in-place rents are well below market, and we have been executing new leases for new tenants at substantially higher rate. Occupancy increased to 89.3% at the end of the quarter, up 400 basis points compared to the end of the second quarter. We have a waiting list for two-bedroom units today, demonstrating the strength of demand for this asset. Turning to office, we leased approximately 29,000 sq ft in the third quarter. Our occupancy rate at the end of the third quarter was 82.6%, compared to 83.0% in the prior quarter, and our leased percentage was 84.3%, compared to 84.5% in the prior quarter. Our leasing spreads remain positive, meaning on a same suite basis, the rents we are achieving on new leases are higher than the rates of our expiring leases. This speaks to the quality of our office portfolio. On a year-to-date basis, our cash lease spreads are up about 100 basis points, while our GAAP leasing spreads are up about 4.6%. With that, I'll turn it to Barry. Thank you, Steve. Moving on to financial highlights. Our segment NOI increased to $11.2 million for the third quarter of 2023, compared to $10.1 million in the prior year comparable period. This increase in NOI of $1.1 million was driven by a $2.8 million increase in our office segment NOI, partially offset by an $800,000 decrease in our lending segment NOI, a $500,000 decrease in our hotel segment NOI, as well as a net operating loss of $400,000 from our newly acquired multifamily segment. Our third quarter office segment NOI increased to $9.3 million, compared to $6.5 million for the prior year comparable period. The increase of $2.8 million was driven by an increase in income from our unconsolidated office properties, largely due to an unrealized gain at one of our joint venture investments recognized during the quarter, an increase in rental revenues at an office property in Beverly Hills, California, due to increased occupancy and rental rates, and a decrease in real estate tax expense at an office property in Austin, Texas. Our third quarter hotel segment NOI decreased to $1.9 million from $2.4 million in the prior period. While room revenue remained flat, the decrease was attributable primarily to a decrease in food and beverage revenue. As we mentioned, we recorded a third quarter net operating loss of $400,000 from the new multifamily segment. We began reporting multifamily segment NOI in the first quarter of 2023 after we acquired 2 multifamily properties in Oakland in late January and late March, as well as invested in another multifamily property in Los Angeles through a 50/50 joint venture investment. Lastly, our lending division NOI decreased to $400,000 from $1.2 million in the prior year comparable period. This decrease was primarily due to the increased interest expense related to the issuance of debt through a securitization transaction that closed in March 2023, as well as an increase in allocated payroll costs. Interest relating to the securitization is directly expensed at the lending segment level, which in turn freed up capital to allow us to further our strategic business model, including the multifamily acquisitions. For our non-segment expenses, we had two significant events. The largest was an increase of $11 million in depreciation and amortization expense. This non-cash expense increase was driven by an increase in acquired in-place lease and tangible assets amortization at our new multifamily properties located in Oakland. As of the end of the third quarter, these assets have been fully amortized. The second item being an increase in non-segment allocated interest expense, which increased by around $6.5 million. The increase was related primarily due to market interest rates and the assumption of two mortgages in connection with the acquisition of our two multifamily properties in Oakland during the first quarter of 2023, including borrowing on our revolver in connection with the acquisitions. Our FFO was -$0.33 per diluted share, compared to -$0.22 in the prior year comparable period, and our core FFO was -$0.31 per diluted share, compared to -$0.07 per share in the prior year period. These reductions were primarily driven by the increase in interest expense, largely due to our multifamily acquisitions, two of which are still in their initial lease-up phase. As David mentioned, we believe there is an opportunity to significantly grow our multifamily NOI. Finally, our liquidity was bolstered by raising an additional $25.1 million in net proceeds from the sale of our Series A-1 preferred stock during the quarter. At September 30, we had approximately $73 million of additional borrowing capacity. With that, our host can now turn the call over for questions. Thank you very much. We will now begin the question and answer session. To ask a question, you may press star then one on your telephone keypad. If you are using a speakerphone, please pick up your handset before pressing the keys. To withdraw your question, please press star then two. We will pause momentarily to assemble our roster. Seeing no questions at this time, this concludes our question and answer session, and the conference has now concluded. Thank you for attending today's presentation. You may now disconnect your lines, and have a nice day.
