Thank you, Operator. By now, you should have received a copy of the company's fourth quarter and full year 2018 earnings release. If you haven't, please call Advisory Partners at 212-750-5800. On the call today, we have Ed Heffernan, President and Chief Executive Officer of Alliance Data, and Charles Horn, Chief Financial Officer of Alliance Data. Before we begin, I would like to remind you that some of the comments made on today's call and some of the responses to your questions may contain forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to the risks and uncertainties described in the company's earnings release and other filings with the SEC. Alliance data has no obligation to update the information presented on the call. Also on today's call, our speakers will reference certain non-GAAP financial measures, which we believe will provide useful information for those measures to GAAP will be posted on the investor relations website at AllianceData.com. With that, I would like to turn the call over to Ed Heffernan. Ed?
Ed Heffernan Great. Thanks, Iggy. And good morning, everyone. Joining me today, as always, is Charles Horne, our CFO. He's going to update you first on the full year results. I'll wrap up 18, and then we'll shift over to 19 with our guidance and our thoughts. We'll keep this relatively brief so that we'll have plenty of time for Q&A. So, Charles?
