Hello and welcome to the second quarter 2024 earnings call. This call is being recorded and all participants are currently in a list only mode. Shortly, we will move into a question and answer session. To ask a question, please press star followed by the number one on your telephone keypad. I'll now turn the call over to Kevin Powers, Senior Vice President of Investor Relations.

Thank you, Jeremy. Good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining us today for our live Q&A session for our second quarter results. With me today, are Howard Freeman, CEO, Ajay Kataria, CFO, and Kerry DeBoer, COO and Chief Transformation Officer. I hope everybody had a chance to listen or read our prepared remarks that we posted this morning, and also a presentation that is available on our Investor Relations website. Before we begin today's Q&A session, just a few housekeeping items. Please note that some of our comments today will contain forward-looking statements. Based on our current view of our business and actual future results may differ materially. Please see our recent SEC filings, which identify the principal risks and uncertainties that could affect future performance. On today's call, we will discuss certain adjusted non-GAAP financial measures, which are described in more detail in this morning's earnings materials. Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures and other associated disclosures are contained in our earnings materials that are posted on our website. And with that, operator, we are ready to open up the line for questions.

All right, perfect. And just as a reminder, to ask a question, please press star followed by the number one. Our first question comes from the line of Andrew Lazar from Barclays. Please go ahead.
