Good morning, and thank you for joining ParaGenesis' second quarter 2022 financial results and business update conference call. On the call with us today are Peter Pasquale, Chief Executive Officer, and Andre Manella, Chief Financial Officer. The company issued a press release yesterday on August 15, 2022, containing business updates and financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022, which is also posted on the company's website. If you have any questions after the call or would like any additional information about the company, please contact the IR department. The company's management will now provide prepared remarks reviewing the financial and operational results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022. I would like to remind everyone that this discussion will include forward-looking information that is based on certain assumptions and is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or results anticipated by the forward-looking information. Forward-looking information provided in this call speaks only as of the date of this call and is based on the plan's beliefs estimates, projections, expectations, opinions, and assumptions of management as of today's date. There can be no assurance that forward-looking information will prove to be accurate and you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. Pyrogenesis disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking information or to explain any material difference between subsequent actual events and such forward-looking information except as required by applicable law. In addition, during the course of this call, there may also be references to certain non-IFRS financial measures, including references to Adjust Net Loss and Adjusted EBITDA, which do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS, and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. For more information about both forward-looking information and non-IFRS financial measures, including a reconciliation of each of adjusted net loss and adjusted EBITDA to net loss, please refer to the company's management discussion and analysis, which along with the financial statements are available on the company's website at www.paragenesis.com and the company's corporate filings on CEDAR at www.cedar.com. With that, I will now turn the call over to Peter Pescali, President and CEO. Please go ahead, Peter.
