Greetings and welcome to Gladstone Capital's second quarter earnings conference call. At this time, all participants are in a listen-only mode. A question and answer session will follow the formal presentation. If anyone should require operator assistance during the conference, please press zero on your telephone keypad. As a reminder, this conference is being recorded. I would now like to turn the conference over to your host, Mr. David Gladstone, Chief Executive Officer. Please go ahead, sir.

Thank you, Peter, and hello, everybody. This is David Gladstone, Chairman, and this is the earnings conference call for Gladstone Capital for the quarter ending March 31, 2022. Thank you all for calling in. We're always happy to talk to our shareholders and analysts and welcome the opportunity to provide an update on the company. Now we hear first from our General Counsel, Michael Lacalce, who will make a statement regarding certain forward-looking statements. Mike, go ahead.

Thanks, David, and good morning, everybody. Today's report may include forward-looking statements under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including those regarding our future performance. These forward-looking statements involve certain risks and uncertainties that are based on our current plans, which we believe to be reasonable. Now, many factors may cause our actual results to be materially different from any future results expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, including all risk factors in our forms 10Q, 10K, and the other documents we file with the SEC. You can find them on the investors' page of our website, www.gladstonecapital.com. You can also sign up for our email notification service there. You can also find the documents on the SEC's website, which is sec.gov. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise documents any of these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law. Today's call is an overview of our results, so we ask that you review our press release and Form 10-Q, both issued yesterday, for more detailed information. Again, you can find them on the Investors page of our website. Now I'll turn the call over to Gladstone Capital's President, Bob Marcotte. Bob?
