The main result of this paper is that the positive equilibrium point of the nonlinear difference equation \[ x_{n+1}=\frac{x_n+x_{n-1}x_{n-2}+a}{x_nx_{n-1}+x_{n-2}+a},\quad n=0,1,\dots, \] is globally asymptotically stable provided \(a\geq 0\) and the initial values \(x_{-2},x_{-1},x_0\) are positive. Thereby the conjecture of \textit{G. Ladas} [Open problems and conjectures. J. Differ. Equ. Appl. 4, No. 1, 95-97 (1998)] about global asymptotic stability of the positive equilibrium of the above equation with \(a=0\) is confirmed.
