Item 9. Regulation FD Disclosure
On May 13, 2003, PMC Commercial Trust (the “Company”) issued a press release describing its results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2003. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report. The information under this caption is furnished by the Company pursuant to Item 12. Results of Operations and Financial Condition, under Item 9 of Form 8-K in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Release No. 34-47583. This information shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
In the press release, the Company used the “non-GAAP financial measure” of Funds from Operations (“FFO”). A reconciliation of FFO to the comparable “GAAP financial measure” (Net income) is contained in the attached press release. As FFO falls within the definition of “non-GAAP financial measure,” the Company has included in the press release a statement disclosing the reasons why management believes that presentation of FFO provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s results of operations.
