Good afternoon and thank you to everyone for joining QuantumScape's second quarter 2023 earnings call. To supplement today's discussion, please go to our IR website at ir.quantumscape.com. Before we begin, I want to call your attention to the safe harbor provision for forward-looking statements that is posted on our website as part of our quarterly update. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events, future technology progress, or future financial or operating performance. Our expectations and beliefs regarding these matters may not materialize. Actual results and financial periods are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. risk factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from the content of our forward-looking statement for the reasons that we cite in our shareholder letter, Form 10-K, and other FCC filings, including uncertainties posed by the difficulty in predicting future outcomes. Joining us today will be QuantumScape's co-founder, CEO, and chairman, Jagdeep Singh, and our CFO, Kevin Hedrick. Jagdeep will provide a strategic update on the business, and then Kevin will cover the financial results and our outlook in more detail. I'll turn the call over to Jigdeep.
