ONE Gas, Inc.

And we're about to begin. Good day and welcome to the One Gas First Quarter Earnings Conference Call. Today's conference is being recorded. At this time, I'd like to turn the conference over to Mr. Brandon Losey. Please go ahead.

Good morning and thank you for joining us on our First Quarter 2020 Earnings Conference Call. This call is being webcast live and a replay will be made available later today. After our prepared remarks, we will be happy to take your questions. Reminder that statements made during this call that might include one gasp expectations or predictions should be considered forward-looking statements and are covered by the Safe Harbor Provision and Security Act of 1933 and 34. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements and include, among others, statements about the length and severity of a pandemic or other health crisis, such as the recent outbreak of COVID-19. For discussion of other factors that could cause actual results to differ, please refer to our SEC filings. Joining us on the call this morning are Pierce Norton, President and Chief Executive Officer, Aaron Laughlin, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Sid McAnally, Senior Vice President Operations, and Curtis Dinan, Senior Vice President Commercial. And now I'll turn the call over to Pierce.

Thanks, Brandon. Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us on the call today. For the first time in our lifetime, we're faced with an event that has impacted our economy, our businesses, and our daily lives. It has impacted every person in some way. There's a good chance many of us on this call have lost a family member or friend to the COVID-19 virus. To those people, the One Gas family extends our deepest condolences and heartfelt sympathies. We are sorry for your loss. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the call today will be different. We will spend most of our time talking about how the virus and the government reactions to COVID-19 have affected our business, and more importantly, give you insight into our organization's thought processes for dealing with uncertainty. Karen Lawhorn will begin with a brief update of our first quarter results. Sid McAnally will cover the operational details. Curtis Dinan will update you on the commercial environment we're seeing and our regulatory activity. And then Karen will summarize how we view the financial impacts. Our business continuity plan, which provides a framework during a crisis, is based on three principles, anticipation, awareness, and agility. We support our decisions around these principles with our core values of safety, ethics, Inclusion and Diversity, Service, and Value. As Sid, Curtis, and Karen give you examples of our current business environment, you will have a better understanding of the culture that is OneGAS, a culture based on collaborating around two questions. What if things are not as they seem? And what else can we do to solve challenges and create opportunities? I will return later with my closing remarks, but now here's Karen with our first quarter results. Karen?
