A reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is available in our earnings release, which is posted on our website. Please also refer to our earnings release for more detailed information about what we consider to be implied investment grade tenants, a term we will use throughout today's call.

I'll now turn the call over to Michael Anderson, Chief Executive Officer. Please go ahead, Michael. Thanks, Curtis. Good morning, and thank you for joining us. Today, we will discuss the results for the fourth quarter and full year 2024. As part of our ongoing diversification strategy, as previously communicated, we completed the disposition of 9 Times Square for $63,500,000 Sales of this property improved the leverage on our balance sheet and generated net proceeds of approximately $13,500,000 strengthening our cash position. We've also relaunched the marketing efforts to sell 123 William Street and 196 Orchard as we continue to pursue our strategy of diversifying diversifying beyond real estate in Manhattan through the strategic sale, of properties and the acquisition of higher yielding assets. Our existing portfolio consists of six real estate assets throughout New York City, primarily in Manhattan. At year end, our four hundred and seventy point eight million one million square foot portfolio had occupancy of 80.8% and a weighted average remaining lease term of six point three years. New York City centric portfolio features a mix of large investment grade tenants of whom the top 10 tenants are 77% investment grade or implied investment grade. Based on straight line rent.

With a weighted average remaining lease term of eight years. Investment grade tenants in our portfolio include City National Bank, CVS and government agency agencies. We also continue to focus our leasing efforts on securing tenants in resilient industries such as well capitalized financial services companies, and medical institutions.

Our core office properties are located in submarkets with close proximity to major hubs.

Our asset management team continues to drive our leasing efforts. To that point, by leveraging relationships with existing tenants and the brokerage community, they're able to secure five new leases totaling over 37,000 square feet and $2,000,000 of straight line rent during 2024. As we look ahead, we are proactively building a pipeline of new and renewal leases to increase occupancy in our portfolio. We remain committed to strengthening our existing portfolio of real estate assets as we explore additional income generating investments. We believe with the completion of past sales and the reinvigorated effort to sell two additional properties, we will be better positioned to take advantage of opportunities to invest in the long term future of our portfolio. Our intention to build a portfolio that we believe will be accretive to shareholders. With that, I'll turn it over to Mike Clifanto to go over the fourth quarter and full year 2024 results.

Mike?

Thanks, Michael. Revenue was $61,600,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $62,700,000 in 2023. Revenue for the fourth quarter twenty twenty four was $14,900,000 compared to $15,400,000 in the fourth quarter of twenty twenty three. The company's full year GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders $140,600,000 compared to a net loss of 1 and $5,900,000 in 2023. Net loss for the quarter was 6,700,000.0 compared to $73,900,000 for the fourth quarter in 2023. Adjusted EBITDA for 2024 was $11,900,000 and was $1,300,000 for the fourth quarter.

As always, a reconciliation of GAAP net income to non GAAP measures can be found in our earnings release supplemental and Form 10 The company maintains a relatively conservative balance sheet with 100% fixed rate debt and prudent net leverage of 56.9%. We ended the fourth quarter with net debt of $340,200,000 at a weighted average effective interest rate of 4.4% and a weighted average remaining debt term of three point six years.

Importantly, all of our debt is fixed rate or swapped to fixed rate after we locked in interest rates while they were broadly at historic lows.

With that, I'll turn the call back to Michael for some closing remarks.

Great. Thank you, Mike. One final note. On March 7, we announced that I would be resigning my position as CEO of ASIC. As such, this will be the last time I get to discuss the company's results with you.

I'd like to thank you for your insights, support and ownership of ASIC over the years. I take great comfort leaving the company in the hands of Nick Schorz, Jr.

Who was recently approved by the board to the position of CEO. Nick has been a longtime employee of our advisor, AR Global, starting in 2011 and has ably fulfilled numerous roles during his tenure here. I believe I speak for the leadership team when I say that we are excited about the opportunities ahead of for the company to unlock future value for our shareholders. Thank you for joining us today.

That will conclude today's call. Thank you all for joining. You may now disconnect.
