Thank you operator. Hello everyone and welcome to the Owens & Miner first quarter 2023 earnings call. Our comments on the call will be focused on the financial results for the first quarter of 2023, as well as our updated outlook for 2023, both of which are included in today's press release. The press release along with the supplemental slides are posted on the investor relations section of our website. Please note that during this call, we will make forward-looking statements. The matters addressed in these statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or implied here today. Please refer to our SEC filings for a full description of these risks and uncertainties, including the risk factors section of our annual report, Form 10-K, and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. In our discussion today, we will reference certain non-GAAP financial measures. Information about these measures and reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measures are included in our press release. Today, I'm joined by Ed Pasica, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Alex Bruni, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. I will now turn the call over to Ed.
