Thank you. Good morning and welcome everyone to Ardmore Shipping's first quarter 2022 earnings call. Let me first ask our CFO, Paul Tidman, to describe the format for the call and forward-looking statements.

Thanks, Tony, and welcome everyone. Before we begin our conference call, I would like to direct all participants to our website at ardmoreshipping.com, where you'll find a link to this morning's first quarter earnings release and presentation. Tony and I will take about 15 minutes to go through the presentation and then open up the call to questions. Turning to slide two, please allow me to remind you that our discussion today contains forward-looking statements. Additional results may differ materially from the results projected from those forward-looking statements. And additional information concerning factors that can cause the actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements is contained in the first quarter earnings release, which is available on our website. And now I'll turn the call back over to Tony.
