High Tide Inc.

Good morning. My name is Sarah and I'll be your conference operator today.

At this time, I would like to welcome everyone to the Hightide Inc. Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2020 Financial and Operational Results Conference Call. All lines have been placed on mute to prevent any background noise. After the speaker's remarks, there'll be a question and answer session. Instructions will be provided at that time for you to queue up for questions. I would now like to turn the call over to your host, Krystal Dafoe.

Thank you, operator. Good morning, everyone, and welcome to High Tide's first earnings call. Joining me today on the call are Mr. Raj Grover, President and CEO, and Rahim Kanji, CFO. Earlier today, the company released its financial and operational results for the third quarter of fiscal 2020, ended July 31, 2020. These results are available on the company's website and on CDAR. Before we begin, I'd like to remind everyone that certain statements made on today's call may contain forward-looking information within the meanings of applicable securities laws. Such statements may include estimates, projections, goals, forecasts or assumptions which are based on current expectations and not representative of historical facts or information. We want to be clear that such forward-looking statements represent the company's beliefs about future events, plans or objectives which are inherently uncertain. and are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that may cause the actual results or performance to differ materially from such statements. Additional information about both the material factors and assumptions forming the basis of our forward-looking statements and risks and which could cause actual results or performance to differ materially and the material factors or assumptions that were applied to make certain conclusions, forecasts or projections in forward-looking statements on this call is contained both in a readily available document upon request and in our regulatory filings available on CDAR under the company's profile. Hightide does not undertake any duty to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any forward-looking statements in this call or to update or supplement any information provided in today's call. In addition, on this call, we will refer to supplemental non-GAAP accounting measures included adjusted EBITDA. which do not have any standardized meeting as prescribed by IFRS. We believe this non-IFRS financial measure assists management investors in understanding and analyzing our business trends and performance. Please refer to our earnings press release for a calculation of these measures and reconciliation to the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS. These non-IFRS measures should not be considered superior to as a substitute for or as an alternative to and should be considered in conjunction with the IFRS financial measures presented on the financial statements listed on CEDAR. It is now my pleasure to introduce Mr. Raj Grover, President and CEO of Hightide. Thank you. Mr. Grover, you may now begin.
