Thank you, Kristen. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining us today. Bill Cobb, our President and CEO; and Jeff Brown, our CFO, will review our second quarter results. Before we begin, I'd like to remind everyone that today's remarks may include forward-looking statements as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such statements are based on current information, and management's expectations as of this date are not guarantees of future performance. Forward-looking statements involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. As a result, our actual outcomes and results could differ materially.
