Thanks, Doug. Before we begin, I remind everyone that matters we discuss this afternoon include predictions, estimates, expectations and other forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. You should refer to our recent SEC filings for a detailed list of risk factors. As noted in our press release, we also issued a set of prepared remarks in advance of this call, which are available on our website. Those remarks are not -- are intended to serve in place of extended formal comments, and we will not repeat them here. Now, let me turn the call over to Paul Ricci.
