Skillz Inc.

Good day, and welcome to the Skills Second Quarter 2021 Earnings Conference Call. I will proceed shortly by reading our forward-looking statements and non-GAAP measures immediately followed by a question and answer session. Hosting the question and answer session today, we have Andrew Paradise, Chief Executive Officer, Casey Chaskin, Chief Revenue Officer, and Ian Lee, Chief Financial Officer of the company. We hope you had a chance to read our press release and stockholder letter that we published earlier today, both of which are also available on our investor relations website. We have also posted to our website a short video of our CEO discussing our business highlights for this quarter. Some of management's comments today will include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements, which are usually identified by the use of words such as will, expect, should, and other such similar phrases are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from what we expect. Therefore, you should exercise caution in interpreting and relying on them. We refer you to the SEC's company's SEC filings for a more detailed discussion of the risks that could impact future operating results and financial condition. During the call, management will discuss non-GAAP measures, which we believe can be useful in evaluating the company's operating performance. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is available in our second quarter 2021 earnings release. With that, I'll turn the call over to Andrew.

Thank you, Stepan. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you all for joining us today to discuss our second quarter 2021 results. This quarter, we made important investments that will accelerate key initiatives to grow our users, increase our content, and advance our platform technologies, really setting the stage for long-term growth. Hopefully, you've all had an opportunity to read our stockholder letter, which contains details on our Q2 performance. With that, let me open it up for questions.
