Exhibit 99.1 Gladstone Commercial Announces the Financial Results for Its Initial Quarter Since Its IPO in August 2003 MCLEAN, Va., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Gladstone Commercial Corp. (Nasdaq: GOOD) (the "Company") released financials for the quarter ended September 30, 2003. The Company is a newly formed REIT that had its initial public offering on August 13, 2003. The Company had no investments at September 30, 2003, due to the limited amount of time between the commencement of operations in August 2003 and the quarter ended September 30, 2003. Since the Company is a newly formed REIT, most of its expenses for the quarter were start-up related, leading to a net loss of $104,208. Basic and diluted loss per weighted-average common share was $0.03. Total assets were $105,159,489 and consisted mainly of cash and cash equivalents. "Net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 was expected because we are a start-up and are beginning to deploy the capital. The Company has agreed to buy $11.8 million in real estate and we are seeing significant amounts of deal flow," said a spokesperson for the Company. "We believe we will show a good number of closings for the quarter ending December 31, 2003. We are getting strong interest in our sale and lease back proposals. We think the Company will meet its objectives of being fully invested in 18 months. Each of the transactions we are considering is subject to the successful completion of our due diligence and there can be no guarantee that we will be able to close any of these transactions." The attached financial statements are without footnotes so readers should obtain and carefully review our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2003, including the footnotes to the financial statements contained therein. We have filed this Form 10-Q today with the Securities and Exchange Commission ('SEC') which can be retrieved at the SEC website at www.SEC.gov or the web site for Gladstone Commercial at www.GladstoneCommercial.com.
