Chuck Griffiths Thank you, operator, and good afternoon, everyone. I'm joined today by Grant Bennett, our president and CEO, and Michael McCormick, our chief operating officer. Before we begin the business portion of the call, I would like to point out to all of you that statements in this conference call that are not strictly historical are forward-looking statements within the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. and should be considered as subject to the many uncertainties that exist in CPS's operations and environment. These uncertainties include the impact of COVID-19, economic conditions, market demands and competitive factors. Such factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in any forward-looking statement. Now I'll turn the call over to Grant to offer his perspectives on the annual and fourth quarter results. Thank you, Chuck.

First, Chuck and I are delighted to be joined today by Michael McCormick, our new Chief Operating Officer. Michael began on January 4th after relocating from Florida. As mentioned in our press release, when he joined us, Michael brings deep skills in business development, new product expansion, and M&A, and has significant experience in the defense, aerospace, and armor markets. He also brings energy, focus, and drive. Eight weeks into working together, I can authoritatively say that he's delightful to work with. We'll hear from Michael later in the call, but say hello, Michael.
