BFS company outlook (results filed Aug 6, 2026)
- “Management considers FFO a meaningful supplemental measure of operating performance because it primarily excludes the assumption that the value of the real estate assets diminishes predictably over time (i.e. depreciation), which is contrary to what the Company believes occurs with its assets, and because industry analysts have accepted it as a performance measure.”
Quoted word-for-word from the SEC 8-K results press release.
