Thank you, and good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to our conference call to discuss MCOR's fiscal 2023 first quarter results. The news release we issued this afternoon is posted on our website, MCOR.com. On this call, Jeff Richard, MCOR's President and Chief Executive Officer, will begin with the discussion of our business highlights. I'll then update you on our financial results and we'll conclude by taking questions. Before we begin, we would like to remind you that the information provided herein may include forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements are largely based on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends affecting the business. Such forward-looking statements include projections about future results, statements about plans, strategies, business prospects, and changes in trends in the business and the markets in which we operate. Management cautions that these forward-looking statements relate to future events or future financial performance and are subject to business, economic, and other risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown, that may cause actual results, levels of activity, and performance or achievements of the business or in our industry to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. We caution you not to rely on these statements and to also consider the risks and uncertainties associated with these statements and the business, which are included in the company's filings available on the SEC's website located at sec.gov, including the sections entitled Risk Factors in the company's annual report on Form 10-K. The company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to conform such statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations, except as required by applicable law or regulation. In addition, references will be made during this call to non-GAAP financial measures, which we believe provide meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors. The non-GAAP measures reflect the company's core ongoing operating performance, and facilitates comparisons across reporting periods. Investors are encouraged to review these and on-gap measures, as well as the explanation and reconciliation of these measures to the most comparable gap measures included in our news release.

With that, I will now turn the call over to Jeff. Thank you, Tom, and good afternoon, everyone.
