Thank you. Good afternoon everybody. I would like to begin by reading our Safe Harbor statement. Certain statements contained in this call that are not purely historical, such as statements related to the company’s future plans and prospects, including its sales and earnings growth estimates may be deemed to be forward-looking statements, which are subject to the Safe Harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

These forward-looking statements are only predictions and may differ materially from the actual future events or results due to a variety of factors including economic conditions in the areas in which the company sells its products, demand in the analytical instrumentation market, foreign currency fluctuations, our ability to manufacture products on an efficient and timely basis and at a reasonable cost and in sufficient volume, competition in the analytical instrumentation market, our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel, existing product obsolescence, and other risks and uncertainties listed in the company’s most recent reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q.
