Good afternoon. My name is Tiffany and I will be your conference operator today. At this time, I would like to welcome everyone to the Millipore's First Quarter 2010 Earnings Conference Call. [Operator Instructions] I would now like to turn the call over to Joshua Young. Please go ahead, sir.

Joshua Young

Thank you very much, Tiffany. Good evening. I'd like to welcome everyone to Millipore's First Quarter 2010 Earnings Conference Call. My name is Joshua Young and I am the Director of Investor Relations for Millipore. And joining me on today's call are: Martin Madaus, Chairman, President and CEO; and Charlie Wagner, Chief Financial Officer.

In addition to the earnings release we issued earlier today, we will also be referencing a slide presentation as part of today's call. The presentation can be viewed by clicking on the webcast link on the millipore.com homepage or by accessing Millipore's Investor Relations website. A PDF copy of the slides is posted to the website currently.

We will also be highlighting non-GAAP financial information. A reconciliation of our GAAP financials to our non-GAAP financial measures is included in our earnings release and posted on our website.

Before we begin, I'd like to make the usual Safe Harbor statement that during the course of this conference call, we will make forward-looking statements regarding future events for the financial performance of the company that involve risks and uncertainties. The company's actual results may differ materially from the projections described in such statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in today's earnings release and in our Form 10-K, as well as other subsequent SEC filings.
