Operator
Good day, and welcome to the Franklin BSP Realty Trust Second Quarter 2023 Earnings Conference Call. [Operator Instructions]. Please note, this event is being recorded. I would now like to turn the conference over to Lindsey Crabbe, Director of Investor Relations. Please go ahead.
Lindsey Crabbe
Thank you so much. Good morning. Welcome to the Franklin BSP Realty Trust Second Quarter Earnings Conference Call. As the operator already mentioned, I'm Lindsey Crabbe. With me on the call today are Richard Byrne, Chairman and CEO of FBRT, Jerome Baglien, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer of FBRT and Michael Comparato, President of FBRT. Before we begin, I want to mention that some of today's comments are forward-looking statements and are based on certain assumptions. Those comments and assumptions are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties as described in our most recently filed SEC periodic report and actual future results may differ materially. The information contained on this call is current only as of the date of this call, August 1, 2023.
The company assumes no obligation to update any statements made during this call, including any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Additionally, we will refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures, which are reconciled to GAAP figures in our earnings release and supplementary slide deck, each of which are available on our website. We will refer to the supplementary slide deck on today's call. With that, I'll turn the call over to Rich Byrne.
Richard Byrne
Great. Thanks, Lindsey, and good morning, everyone. Thank you all for joining us today. As Lindsey said, I'm Rich Byrne. I'm the Chairman and CEO of FBRT. Also, as Lindsey mentioned, our earnings release and supplemental deck were just published to our website yesterday, so you can look at them there. We're going to begin today's call by reviewing our second quarter results. And then, of course, as always, we'll open the call up for your questions.
