To ask a question during this session, you'll need to press star 1 on your telephone. Please be advised that today's conference is being recorded, and if you require any assistance during the call, please press star 0. I would now like to hand the conference over to your speaker today, Mr. J.T. Rick. Senior Vice President of Finance and Investor Relations. The floor is yours.

Thank you, and good morning. I hope everyone had the opportunity to review our earnings release and listen to our prepared remarks and view the slide presentation that were all posted yesterday evening on our Investor Relations website. After today's Q&A session, we will also post an audio replay of this call. Please note that in this Q&A session, we may make forward-looking statements about the company's performance. Although we believe these statements to be reasonable, they are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. In addition to what you hear in these remarks, important factors relating to Flowers Foods' business are fully detailed in our SEC filings. We also provide non-GAAP financial measures for which disclosure and reconciliations are provided in the earnings release and at the end of the slide presentation on our website. Joining me today are Riles McMullen, President and CEO, and Steve Kinsey, our CFO. Operator, we're ready to start the Q&A, please.

Thank you. And again, as a reminder, to ask a question, you will need to press star 1 on your telephone. To withdraw your question, please press the pound key. One moment as we compile the Q&A roster. Our first question comes from Ben Bienvenu of Stevens. Your line is open.
