Equity Commonwealth (NYSE:EQC) will seek acquisitions. David Helfand, President and CEO said during the call to discuss results for the third quarter ending September 30, 2022, "With respect to acquisitions, as we've said on past quarterly calls, we are continuing to evaluate a wide range of potential opportunities across a variety of sectors. As most of you are well aware, we've been looking for a long time.

I want to assure you that showing patience has been challenging for us, as I know it's been for our investors. While we'd love to be doing deals, we have a responsibility to be thoughtful stewards of our shareholders' capital and we take that to heart. We'll continue to work to identify an acquisition opportunity that offers attractive, long-term fundamentals at a price that reflects the risk we're taking.

We're hopeful the challenges in the capital markets will be a catalyst for a compelling transaction that can serve as the foundation for long-term growth and outperformance for EQC. The team at EQC remains focused, disciplined and optimistic".
