Where can I find the specific financial results for Realty Income's Q3 2008?

The specific financial results for Realty Income's third quarter ended September 30, 2008, are detailed in the press release dated October 29, 2008, which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this 8-K filing and incorporated by reference.

What is the significance of the information not being 'filed' under Section 18?

When information is furnished under Item 2.02 and stated as not being 'filed' for purposes of Section 18, it means the company is providing this information voluntarily, but it does not carry the same legal liability or regulatory weight as information formally 'filed' with the SEC. It's a common disclosure practice for earnings releases.

Does this 8-K filing contain any other material business updates besides the earnings release?

Based on the provided filing content, this 8-K primarily serves to announce the company's Q3 2008 financial results via an attached press release. No other material events or significant business updates are explicitly detailed within the 8-K items presented.
