"redemption of 209,437 shares of its 8.75% Series A Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock"

book-entry form financial

"All shares of Series A Preferred Stock are issued in book-entry form only through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company"

A book-entry form is an electronic record showing ownership of securities instead of a paper certificate; think of it like a bank account ledger that notes who owns shares. It matters to investors because it makes buying, selling and transferring securities faster, safer and cheaper by reducing paperwork, loss or forgery risk, and enabling easier settlement through brokers or a central depository.

The Depository Trust Company financial

"through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)"

The Depository Trust Company is a large organization that safely manages and keeps electronic records of ownership for stocks, bonds, and other securities. It acts like a digital warehouse, making it easier and faster for investors to buy, sell, and transfer investments without needing physical paper certificates. This helps ensure transactions are secure, accurate, and completed smoothly.

forward-looking statements regulatory

"This press release contains forward-looking statements that are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties"

Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.

Regulation FD regulatory

"We use our website as a means of disclosing material non-public information and for complying with our disclosure obligations under Regulation FD."

Regulation FD is a rule that prevents company insiders, like executives, from sharing important information with some people before others get it. It matters because it helps ensure all investors have equal access to key news, making the stock market fairer and reducing chances of insider trading.
