Good morning, and thank you for joining the Badger Meter second quarter 2023 earnings conference call. On the call with me today are Ken Bockhorst, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer, and Bob Rockledge, Chief Financial Officer. The earnings release and related slide presentation are available on our website. Quickly, I will cover the safe harbor, reminding you that any forward-looking statements made during this call are subject to various risks and uncertainties, the most important of which are outlined in our press release and SEC filings. On today's call, we will refer to certain non-GAAP financial metrics. Our earnings slides provide a reconciliation of the gap to non-gap financial metrics used. With that, I'll turn the call over to Ken.

Thanks, Karen, and thank you for joining our second quarter earnings call. We were very pleased with our second quarter performance, delivering an all-time record revenue quarter, strong operating profit margin improvement, and 33% EPS growth year over year. Demand levels remain resilient, with a book-to-bill again above 1%. I want to thank our global Badger Meter team for their efforts, once again, delivering exceptional execution in support of our customers. We published our 2022 sustainability report a few weeks ago, and I'll highlight key elements of our ESG progress, in addition to providing an update on the macro environment and market outlook later in the call. For now, I'll turn it over to Bob to go through the details of the quarter.
