Li-Cycle Holdings Corp.

My name is Brittany, and I will be your conference operator today. At this time, I would like to welcome everyone to the fourth quarter and full year 2021 Lifecycle Holdings, Earnings Call, and Webcast. All lives have been placed on mute to prevent any background noise. After the speaker's remarks, there will be a question and answer session. If you would like to ask a question at that time, please press star 1 on your telephone keypad. If you should need operator assistance, please press star 0. Thank you. I would now like to turn the call over to Nala Asmi, Head of Investor Relations. Please go ahead.

Thank you, Brittany. Good morning, and thank you, everyone, for joining us today for LifeCycle's review of our fourth quarter and full year 2021 results ended October 31. First, we will start today with a brief video. Then we will follow with formal remarks from Tim Johnston, Co-Founder, Executive Chairman, Ajay Kochhar, co-founder, president, and Bruce McGinnis, chief financial officer. Debbie Simpson, our CFO effective February 1, is also joining us for the Q&A session to follow. Ahead of this call, Lifecycle issued press releases, a video, and a presentation, which can be found on the investor relations section of our website at investors.lifecycle.com. On this call, management will be making statements based on current expectations plans, estimates, and assumptions, which are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from our forward-looking statements if any of our assumptions are incorrect, including because of factors discussed in today's press releases, during this conference call, and in our past reports and filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Ontario Securities Commission in Canada. These documents can be found on our website at investors.lifefile.com. We do not undertake any duty to update any forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, made during this call or from time to time, to reflect new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required. With that, I'm pleased to turn the call to Tim.

Li-Cycle has made significant strides towards achieving its strategic objective to be an industry leader in lithium-ion battery resource recovery.
