For the informal portion of today's meeting, Sumit will provide an overview of the company, our 2020 operating performance, and the company's outlook for 2021. We'll open the floor to questions. It is my sincere pleasure to introduce our CEO, Sumit Roy. Thank you, Mike. Welcome to the informal portion of our annual stockholder meeting. We appreciate everyone joining us virtually today, and we sincerely thank you for your continued support of Realty Income. I'll start by providing an overview of our business and our value proposition, and then we'll open up the meeting for questions, which you can submit through the virtual webcast. As a monthly dividend company, we remain committed to operating our company in a manner that provides shareholders with dependable, growing dividends. Our company was founded in 1969 on the principles of capital preservation and income generation. Today, we are laser-focused on sustaining and creating long-term shareholder value through continued payment of monthly dividends that grow over time and growth of the overall business to support the increasing dividends. Our business, in some ways, is uncomplicated. We seek to acquire high-quality real estate leads to leading operators in economically resilient industries who pay us monthly rent. The income we receive in the form of monthly rent funds the monthly dividend and provides capital for new acquisitions, driving growth and earnings. Our confidence in continuing to provide monthly dividends that increase over time stems from the quality of our real estate portfolio, which is designed for stability through a variety of economic environments. We firmly believe in portfolio diversification by geography, clients, industry, and property type as a key mechanism to mitigate economic risk. We own over 6,600 properties across all 50 U.S. states, Puerto Rico, and the U.K. In 2020, we invested over $2.3 billion in acquisitions. The momentum has continued this year. For 2021, we continue to expect to acquire over $3.25 billion in real estate. We are off to a healthy start. During the first quarter, we invested approximately $1 billion in high-quality real estate. Of this total, we invested $625 million domestically, including our first-ever acquisition in Hawaii, becoming the first and only REIT to own property in all 50 U.S. states. During the first quarter, we invested approximately $403 million in high-quality real estate in the U.K., highlighting the continued strength of our international platform and bringing our total investment in the U.K. to over $2 billion since the first international acquisition we closed in 2019. Today, the U.K. represents over 7% of our total rental income. We have about 600 clients who operate across 56 different industries. Generally, we partner with national best-in-class operators that we trust to maintain strong business fundamentals. Our clients are household names like Walgreens, 7-Eleven, Dollar General, Walmart, and FedEx. 50% of our rent comes from investment grade rated clients or their subsidiaries. Approximately 84% of the rental income in our portfolio comes from retail properties, and 11% comes from industrial properties. When acquiring retail properties, we target clients whose business centers around a service, non-discretionary, and/or low price point component. As such, our top industry is convenience stores representing 12% of revenue, followed by grocery stores, which represents 10% of revenue. Our investment philosophy focuses on acquiring freestanding, single-unit commercial properties leased to high-quality clients under long-term net lease agreements, typically in excess of 10 years. A net lease structure means tenants are responsible for all property related expenses like taxes, insurance, and maintenance. The net lease is a cornerstone of our business because it is mutually beneficial to our business and that of our clients. Net leases provide us with high profit margins while allowing our clients to maintain full control of the asset premises. Unlike shopping centers and malls, our properties are primarily standalone destinations, not reliant upon foot traffic from neighboring stores. Long lease terms provide us with predictable cash flows for years to come. The quality of the assets we acquire flows through the entire life cycle of our portfolio, allowing us to favorably recapture rent on expiring leases and maintain a healthy level of occupancy. Our commitment to the dividend is evidenced by a track record of dividend performance. A few days ago, we paid our 610th consecutive monthly dividend, and we've increased the dividend 110 times since the New York Stock Exchange listing in 1994. Since 1994, we have increased the dividend every year, growing it at a compound average annual growth rate of approximately 4.4%. Since 1994, our compound average annual total return, which includes both the dividend and share price appreciation, is over 15% and nearly 4% higher than the same compound average annual return of the REIT Index, the Dow Jones Index, and the S&P 500 Index, and the Nasdaq Index. As a result of increasing the dividends for over 25 consecutive years, we are proud to be a member of the exclusive S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index, which consists of only three REITs and 65 companies overall. Much like our commitment to the dividend, we are dedicated to being a responsible corporate citizen, doing the right thing for all stakeholders. In April, we published our inaugural sustainability report, which details our company's commitments, goals, and progress to date with regard to environmental, social, and governance initiatives. I invite all Realty Income stakeholders to share in our dedication to embrace a changing world for the benefits of all those we serve, encourage everyone listening to read through our 2020 sustainability report found on the corporate responsibility page of our website. Our relentless pursuit in generating shareholder value was on display last month when we announced that Realty Income reached a definitive merger agreement with VEREIT, which would further distance ourselves as the leader in the net lease industry and creates a company with a combined enterprise value of approximately $50 billion. We believe shareholders of both companies will enjoy meaningful value creation through immediate earnings accretion, an expanded platform with enhanced size, scale, and diversification, driving further growth opportunities, and financing synergies which are enhanced by Realty Income's A-rated balance sheet and access to well-priced capital. The merger with VEREIT is expected to be immediately accretive to AFFO per share upon closing. For existing Realty Income shareholders, we expect the merger to be over 10% accretive relative to the midpoint of our 2021 AFFO per share guidance on an annualized leverage neutral basis. The VEREIT portfolio is very complementary to ours, and Realty Income's pro forma portfolio metrics remain strong and better diversified as a combined entity. Once the merger is complete, our portfolio will grow from approximately 6,600 properties to over 10,300 properties. Currently, we are the only net lease REIT in the S&P 500, one of the top 10 largest U.S. REITs by enterprise value, and the largest company in the net lease REIT sector. Upon closing this merger with VEREIT, Realty Income is expected to be the sixth-largest REIT in the RMZ in terms of equity market capitalization. Our size and scale, in conjunction with our conservative balance sheet and financial strength, have afforded us AA credit ratings by the major rating agencies. Our $3 billion multi-currency revolver grants us ample access to well-priced capital that allows us to opportunistically raise permanent long-term capital when the markets are most favorable. We believe funding our business with approximately 2/3 equity and 1/3 debt contributes to maintaining a conservative balance sheet. We ended the quarter with a net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio of 5.3 times. Our near-term debt maturities remain minimal, with only $26 million of debt maturing through year-end 2021, excluding our commercial paper program and borrowings outstanding on our revolving credit facility. Because of our conservative business strategy, we were well positioned for an economic downturn at the onset of the COVID pandemic. The pandemic created an unprecedented shock to consumer demand that impacted industries across the globe. Today, our theater industry remains affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily caused by government-mandated closures and social distancing requirements. Theaters account for 5.6% of our rental revenue. Currently, we have 37 of our 79 theaters on cash accounting, which means we will only recognize rental revenue from our theater clients when it is received. We are encouraged by the recent momentum in the theater space. Vaccination rates are improving, driving COVID-19 incidence rates down, while theaters are opening nationwide and studios have started to release blockbuster content. Most recently, Godzilla vs. Kong brought in approximately $49 million during the opening weekend and generated more than $390 million in revenue within the first two weeks of its global release, turning a profit of more than $200 million. If theaters resume paying us contractual rent, we could see significant upside to our year-over-year growth. On the whole, we remain very proud of our 2020 results. We were one of only three net lease REITs with positive earnings growth in 2020, and we were one of only seven net lease REITs who increased the dividend in 2020. We remain committed to leveraging our size and scale to produce new swim lanes through which our business can grow, ensuring we can continue to support increasing monthly dividends. We have immense size and scale, which allows us to invest in the highest quality real estate. In 2020, we reviewed more than $63 billion of investment opportunities, of which we selected to purchase less than 4%. In 2019, we expanded our business internationally to include properties in the U.K. by replicating our time-tested U.S. business strategy. This international growth vertical represented about 40% of our total investment volume in the first quarter and has proved to be incremental to both our investment opportunities and closed transactions. Our success in the U.K. energizes our team to continue to seek new industries and geographies that match our highly selective investment criteria. Because of our size, we can execute on large-scale sale-leaseback transactions without creating the concentration risks our peers may face. This advantage strengthens our relationships with leading national operators because we can provide them a one-stop shop to quickly monetize their real estate, providing them with liquidity to reinvest into their businesses. Since 2015, approximately 45% of our transaction volume has been closed through this growth lane, a figure we expect may increase over time. The merger between Realty Income and VEREIT will enhance our ability to execute large-scale sale-leaseback transactions through expanded capacity to buy in bulk, which improves our competitive positioning when competing for portfolio or sale-leaseback transactions in the fragmented net lease industry. Our ability to execute sale-leaseback transactions, which usually means buying assets at wholesale prices and at a discount to the one-off market, is a competitive advantage. We are often one of only a handful of buyers for large-scale portfolio transactions, particularly those that would otherwise create untenable client or industry concentration issues for our competitors. Pro forma for the closing of the transaction, we will have approximately $2.5 billion of annualized rental revenue. For every $1 billion of acquisitions to a single credit or industry, our exposure to that credit or industry will increase by approximately 2%, compared to around 3.5% based on our current size. Our size and scale allow us to maintain the lowest G&A margin and highest EBITDA margin in the net lease industry. In other words, as compared to our net lease peers, we maintain the lowest day-to-day operating costs and highest earnings relative to our revenue. In 2020, our EBITDA margin was about 94%. The higher our EBITDA margin, the more funds we have available for paying dividends or reinvesting into the business. In summary, the future is bright for Realty Income. We are very excited about the strategic merger with VEREIT and look forward to continuing to drive future growth together as a combined enterprise. We remain steadfast in our mission to pay monthly dividends that increase over time by meticulously executing our resilient business strategy and carefully constructing new acquisition verticals to sustain company growth. With that, I thank you for your support and would like to open it up for questions. The first question I see. Yeah. Sumit, are you ready to go? Do you need a minute to look at? When you're looking at the questions? I would say that there is a lot of overlap, which is interesting and shows it's important. Do you need a second to look at those, or are you ready to go? I think I'm ready to go. There's a common theme in some of the questions that I can see on my screen, and it is around, I'll read the first one. How frequently do tenants not comply with the terms of their triple-net leases? How do you ensure that they are in compliance, and what is done if they refuse to comply? Which is similar to the focus on the theater industry and how that has performed. I'll take all those questions together, if I might. Traditionally, Realty Income has not had issues with non-compliance with regards to rent payment. Our bad debt expense has been in basis points. Clearly, the pandemic created a situation where there were a lot of clients who were just unable to pay because their businesses remained shut. The most impacted, in terms of industry that falls within this group, was the theater business. Due to social distancing norms, only recently have theaters been allowed to reopen. More importantly, all of the big blockbuster movies that were being held back by the large studios are now being released, such as the one that I just spoke about with Godzilla vs. Kong. As we are seeing these movies being released, our thesis around once the vaccination rates were up, the contraction rates were trending down. Our thesis suggested that people would start to go back to theaters as long as the content was there, and that is starting to prove itself out. One of our largest operators has started to pay rent and is now paying us 50% of what is owed to us, which is a very good sign. We expect that as these theaters start to open up, that this particular industry, which was the most impacted, will also start to trend up, which will allow us to have better collections. Just to frame it, there was a question asked around the quantity of deferred rent. We have deferred approximately $135 million-$140 million of deferred rent, of which approximately $100 million is associated with the theater business. The good news is that some of the deferred rents have started to be paid back, and that trend is continuing as businesses start to open and continue to do well. That is a good trend. In terms of forgiving rent, it's less than $1 million of rent that we've had to forgive to date. All good news. Another question that's been asked is, what countries are you considering for future real estate investments? We have a wish list of countries that we've identified. We first started with the U.K., I think we've talked a lot about why we chose to go into the U.K. There are similarly profiled countries that we would like to invest in, not only because we feel like there are very good investments to be had on a value-adjusted basis, but also to continue to open up more markets, to match fund those particular investments and take advantage of very competitive cost of capital available in these geographies. I don't want to necessarily go through our list of countries yet because we don't quite know which one's going to play out. We will continue to stay very focused invest in Europe, and you can assume that one of the countries coming out of Western Europe will be our next investment in terms of growing into different markets. Another question was around when doing sale-leasebacks, are you being very careful as to the rent-to-sales ratio? Sellers tend to inflate the rents to maximize their cash generated from the sale. Thank you again. This is a very good question, and one that we are singularly focused on when we look at transactions. You're very correct. We find this situation to be very true when we are dealing with financial buyers that are looking to maximize proceeds and are less concerned about how much rent they put on the transaction, just given their investment horizon tends to be five- seven years. Our leases tend to be 15 years, 20 years. That is an area of focus for our underwriter team. We compare it to market rents. We compare it to rent to sales, just like you suggested. We look at the particular industry that we are exposed to understand the capacity of that particular industry and more specifically, that particular operator to absorb that rent to sales, given historical results and what we expect the business to do going into the future. All of that is taken into account when we underwrite transactions. With that, I think we've answered all the questions. I'll wait for a few more seconds just to see if anything else comes through. Okay. I believe that was the last question. With that, I'll hand it back to Mike. Thank you, Sumit. Let me conclude the meeting with just an observation. As you all know, we have entered into this merger agreement with VEREIT, and it's a substantial move for Realty Income and certainly for VEREIT. There is a process here that will go on legally and filings and all of that over the coming months. One thing as a personal observation that I would share with our shareholders, is that the cooperation, and I would say just the common view of both the VEREIT senior leadership and board, and Realty Income senior leadership and board, has been really collegial and really impressive to date. We've got a way to go here, but I think it's fair to say that the view is that this is going to be a real strong benefit both to Realty Income shareholders but also to VEREIT's. In particular, the two CEOs have come together and performed their duty so impressively, and I think it's worth noting that as we conclude. A long way to go. It's not done yet, but the spirit and the collegiality and the consensus of opinion has been impressive to date. With that, thank you so much for joining us again. We do believe that in August we will be able to have our board meeting again in person, and next year we'll be able to join together in person for our shareholder meeting, and that is a great blessing. We thank you all. We'll now adjourn the meeting. Thank you. Thank you.
