Thank you, Adam, and good morning, everyone. We appreciate you joining our call today. Last night, we reported of our first quarter financial results, the details of which are outlined for you on page three of our presentation. We are pleased with our first quarter results and we delivered good performance in an increasingly uncertain market environment. Solid execution of our margin initiative supported very good adjusted EPS growth. Our investments in innovation continue to provide tangible benefits, and we are well positioned to capitalize on our customers' investments in automation, digitalization, and onshoring in the future. While we recognize increased uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment, We remain confident in our agility and strong execution of our growth and margin expansion programs to achieve solid adjusted EPS growth this year. Let me now turn the call over to Sean to cover the financial results and our guidance, and then I will come back with some additional commentary on the business and our outlook. Sean?
