The Southern Company

Good afternoon.

My name is Scott, and I'll be your conference operator today. At this time, I would like to welcome everyone to the Southern Company third quarter 2022 earnings call. All lines have been placed on mute to prevent any background noise. After the speaker's remarks, there will be a question and answer session. At that time, you can press the 1 followed by the 4 on your telephone to kill for a question. I would now like to turn the call over to Mr. Scott Gamble, Vice President, Investor Relations, and Treasurer. Please go ahead, sir.

Thank you, Scott. Good afternoon and welcome to Southern Company's third quarter 2022 earnings call. Joining me today are Tom Fanning, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Southern Company, and Dan Tucker, Chief Financial Officer. Let me remind you, we'll be making forward-looking statements today in addition to providing historical information. Various important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements, including those discussed in our Form 10-K, Form 10Qs, and subsequent filings. In addition, we'll provide non-GAAP financial information on this call. Reconciliations to the applicable GAAP measure are included in the financial information we released this morning, as well as the slides for this conference call, which are both available on our Investor Relations website at investor.southerncompany.com. At this time, I'll turn the call over to Tom Fanning.
