Sam Choi
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Thank you, Roger, and hello, everyone. Our fiscal 2022 first quarter results demonstrate excellent progress. Revenue was at a record level for the first quarter, reflecting robust shipments to our largest customers as a result of strong demand amid the reopening of the US economy. Gross profit also represents a record for the first quarter, primarily due to higher revenue and gross margin performance. Our gross margin continued to run in the high teens, reflecting increased shipment volumes and improved product mix in the first quarter. Our robust momentum is continuing further into fiscal 2022, with orders for the first nine months of the year that we believe will lead to a revenue run rate for a year that would exceed our prior record. As a result, we have increased our revenue outlook for the full year, which Gilbert will discuss shortly. We continue to advance plans to increase capacity in our existing facilities and secure additional capacity to meet our customers' demands. both by building new facilities and through leases and acquisitions. We recently announced the signing of definitive agreements to acquire both the operator of a 71,000 square feet manufacturing facility in Amman, Jordan, and the related physical premises. We expect to close this acquisition soon. Eric will provide more details in a moment. I'll now turn the calls over to Eric Tang, who is based in Jordan, and then to Gilbert Li, who will cover our financial results.
