Cannae Holdings, Inc.

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Kanae Holdings Incorporated Second Quarter 2021 Earnings Conference Call. During today's presentation, all parties will be in a listen-only mode. Following the company's brief prepared remarks, the conference will be open for questions with instructions to follow at that time. As a reminder, this conference call is being recorded, and a replay is available through 1159 p.m. Eastern Time on August 12, 2021. Before we begin, I would like to remind you that this conference call may contain forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about CNA's expectations, hopes, intentions, or strategies regarding the future, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management's beliefs as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to management. Because such statements are based on expectations as to future financial and operating results and not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected. The company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. The risks and uncertainties with forward-looking statements are subject to, include, but are not limited to, the risks and other factors detailed in our quarterly shareholder letter, which was released this afternoon, and in the statement regarding forward-looking information, risk factors, and other sections of CNAE's Form 10-K and other filings with the SEC. I would now like to turn the call over to CNAE's CEO, Rick Massey. Rick, you may begin.

Hello, Rick?

Mr. Foley, I think, has joined us or is about to join us.
