Sigma Labs, Inc.

Good day and welcome to the Sigma Labs First Quarter 2021 Financial Results Conference Call and Webcast. Today's conference is being recorded. At this time, I would like to turn the conference over to Chris Tyson, Executive Vice President of MG North America. Please go ahead, sir.

Thank you and good afternoon. I'd like to thank you all for taking time to join us for Sigma Labs First Quarter 2021 Business Update and Results Conference Call. Your hosts today are Mark Ruppert, President and Chief Executive Officer of and Frank Orszakowski, the company's chief financial officer. A press release detailing these results crossed the wires this afternoon at 4.01 p.m. Eastern today and is available on the company's website, sigmalabsinc.com. Before we begin the formal presentation, I'd like to remind everyone that statements made on the call and webcast, including those regarding future financial results and industry prospects, are forward-looking and may be subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the call. Please refer to the company's SEC filings for a list of associated risks, and we would also refer you to the company's website for more supporting industry information. At this time, I would like to turn the call over to Sigma Labs President and Chief Executive Officer, Mark Rupert. Mark, the floor is yours.

Thank you, Chris, and thanks to everybody for joining the call today. I hope you and your families are safe and well as we get closer to the new normal. I know that I'm closer to the new normal because I'm sitting in an airport for the first time in a year. So I'm also pleased to tell you that Sigma Labs is headed also in the right direction. And if you hear some ambient noise here, I apologize. So Q1 was about acceleration, validation, and execution. Acceleration of acceptance of 3D metal printing, validation of a print right 3D product, and execution against all aspects of our business plan. As I mentioned in the 2020 year-end call last month, despite a very challenging year, we were able to execute on our business plan and position ourselves for an exciting 2021. Our Q1 results clearly reinforce my belief that the company has entered a new phase focused squarely on revenue growth and securing our position as a leader in quality assurance for 3D metal printing. Before I go into more detail, I'll have Frank review the financials. Frank?
