Gladstone Commercial Corp CFO Michael Sodo to Depart
Gladstone Commercial Corp disclosed the departure of Chief Financial Officer Michael Sodo effective June 2 2026. The move triggers mandatory disclosures and requires the REIT to name a successor or interim officer to maintain SEC reporting compliance.
deadline.comGladstone Commercial Corp announced the departure of its chief financial officer effective June 2 2026.
The REIT disclosed the executive change in an 8-K filed with the SEC on the same date. Item 5.02 of the filing identifies Michael Sodo as the departing officer and states the effective date without citing a cause.
The departure affects a company whose primary business is ownership and management of office and industrial properties leased to single tenants under net leases. Gladstone Commercial reported total assets of approximately $1.0 billion as of its most recent quarterly report.
As chief financial officer Sodo oversaw financial reporting SEC filings and capital-market activities for the externally managed REIT.
The operational change shifts responsibility for those functions to either an interim officer or a permanent successor. The filing does not name a replacement. Under SEC rules the company must ensure continued timely filing of its 10-Q 10-K and 8-K reports; failure to maintain qualified principal financial officers can delay those filings and trigger separate Item 4.02 disclosures.
Downstream the departure initiates a search process that must conclude before the next quarterly report deadline. It also requires Gladstone Commercial to update its officer roster in future proxy statements and potentially amend existing registration statements that list executive signatories.
Item 7.01 of the 8-K contains Regulation FD disclosure while Item 9.01 references exhibits attached to the filing.
This marks the latest executive transition at Gladstone Commercial Corp which has operated as a publicly traded REIT since 2003. The company is required to report material officer changes on Form 8-K within four business days under Item 5.02.
