Good morning. I'm Dan Stopar, Chief Financial Officer of Matthews, and with me today is Joe Bartolese, our company's president and chief executive officer. Before we start, I would like to remind you that our earnings release was posted on the investor section of the company's website, www.matw.com, last night.
