We will also discuss non-GAAP financial metrics and encourage you to read our disclosures and the reconciliation tables, the applicable GAAP measures, and our earnings release carefully as you consider these metrics. We expect to file our quarterly report on Form 10-Q on May 15, 2023, with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which sets forth detailed disclosures and descriptions of our business, as well as uncertainties and other variable circumstances, including but not limited to risks and uncertainties identified under the caption risk factors in our previously filed annual report on Form 10-K, filed on April 3, 2023, and are to be filed quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.
