Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for standing by. Welcome to the second quarter conference call. At this time, all participants are in listen-only mode.

I’d now like to turn the conference over to Lori Walker, Chief Financial Officer. Please go ahead.

Lori A. Walker

Good morning, and welcome to our fiscal 2012, second quarter earnings conference call. Gary Hendrickson, our President and Chief Executive Officer, is with me on our call this morning.

Before we begin, I'll direct your attention to the press release we issued this morning, which contains much of the information that we'll be covering in the call. This call is subject to the forward-looking statements language contained in our press release and our comments may include forward-looking statements as that term is defined by securities law. This morning, I’ll begin by covering our results for the quarter, Gary will provide some context and then we’ll respond to your questions.
