Ross Collins
Managing Director, Alpha IR

Thank you, Alex. Good morning, everyone. Thank you for taking the time to join us today. On the call with me today are Tom Tomlinson, Chief Executive Officer, Dominic Bardos, Chief Financial Officer, Vinny Nimagata, Executive Vice President of Corporate Development and New Ventures of Holley, and Sean Crawford, Chief Marketing Officer. After their prepared remarks, we will open the call for questions. Now I will reference the safe harbor provisions under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This call may contain certain forward-looking statements that are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the future operating and financial performance of the company. In many cases, these risks and uncertainties are beyond the company's control. Although the company believes the expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations or any of its forward-looking statements will prove to be correct, and actual results may differ materially from expectations. Important risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements are included in the company's recent 10Q, S4, and S1 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The information contained in this call is accurate only as of the date discussed. Investors should not assume that statements will remain relevant and operative at a later time. Holly undertakes no obligation to update any information discussed in this call in the future. Additionally, we will be discussing certain non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of these items to U.S. GAAP are included in today's press release, which is also posted on our Investor Relations website. At this time, I'd like to turn the call over to Tom Tomlinson, Holly's Chief Executive Officer. Tom?

Tom Tomlinson
Chief Executive Officer, Holley

Thank you, Ross. Good morning, everyone, and thanks for joining us today. Holly's fourth quarter and full year 2021 results demonstrate continued strong consumer demand and robust sales growth, capping off a milestone year for our business. As highlighted on slide five, our net sales grew by 30% in the fourth quarter, 17% from acquisitions with 13% organic growth. For the full year, net sales grew by 37%, 23% from acquisitions with 14% organic growth. While supply chain challenges limited our ability to fully satisfy consumer demand, Our team performed well, and we've been able to capture meaningful growth. We also executed on a price increase during the fourth quarter, which helped offset inflationary cost pressures and allowed us to maintain solid gross profit margins, which Dominic will talk about later in the presentation. Looking forward to 2022, we'll continue to focus on developing innovative new products and engaging with our enthusiast consumers to broaden and deepen those all-important relationships. I'll now turn it over to Sean to touch on Holley's strong consumer engagement. Sean?
