Viad Corp

Good afternoon. My name is Abby and I will be your conference operator today. At this time, I would like to welcome everyone to the Zod Corp's first quarter 2023 earnings conference call. All lines have been placed on mute to prevent any background noise. After the speaker's remarks, there will be a question and answer session. If you would like to ask a question during this time, simply press star followed by the number one on your telephone keypad. If you would like to withdraw your question, again, press star followed by the number one on your telephone keypad. Thank you.

Carrie Long, you may begin your conference. Good afternoon, and thank you for joining us for VEAD's 2023 First Quarter Earnings Conference Call.

We issued our earnings press release after the market closed today, along with an earnings presentation. both of which are available on our website at viad.com. We will be referencing specific pages from the presentation during the call as we discuss our business performance and outlook. I would also like to point out that our earnings press release and presentation contain important disclosures regarding non-GAAP measures that we will be referencing during the call, including adjusted EBITDA and net income or loss before other items. During the call, you will hear from Steve Mochner, our President and CEO and President of GES, Ellen Ingersoll, our Chief Financial Officer, and David Barry, President of Pursuit. Before turning the call over to Steve, I want to remind everyone that certain statements made during the call, which are not historical facts, may constitute forward-looking statements. Information concerning business and other risk factors that could cause actual results to materially differ from those in the forward-looking statements can be found in our annual, quarterly, and other current reports filed with the FCC. And with that, I'd like to turn the call over to Steve to hit on some highlights of the quarter, starting on page four of our presentation.
