Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure
On November 15, 2004, PMC Commercial Trust (the “Company”) issued a press release describing, among other things, its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report. 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.
