Yes, Joe, thank you. Good morning. We appreciate all of you joining us for our third quarter 2020 conference call. Before turning the call over to Eddie to read our forward-looking statement and disclaimer, first I want to take a moment to recognize the recent passing of our former chairman and my brother, Randall Rollins. Randall was an extraordinary human being, and his accomplishments and contributions made at the various Rollins public and private companies over the years are unequal. He is missed greatly, not only by our family and his friends, but also by generations of Rollins employees and colleagues who he respected so highly. Many of you reached out with condolences upon receiving the news of his death, And I'd like to thank you for having our family in your thoughts as well as for your kind words. Eddie, would you please read our forward-looking statement and disclaimer?
