Thank you, operator. Good afternoon everyone, and welcome to the Ortho Clinical Diagnostics first quarter earnings conference call.

With me today to discuss our financial results are Chris Smith, Ortho's Chairman and CEO; and Joe Busky, Ortho's Chief Financial Officer. This conference call is being simultaneously webcast on the investors section of our website and a version of today's presentation can be downloaded there. .

Before we begin, I will cover our safe harbor statement. Some of the statements we will make during this call about the company's future expectations, plans and prospects constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which provides a safe harbor for such statements.

Our use of forward-looking statements is subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our current expectations. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors identified on slide two of today's presentation and our other filings with the SEC.

Please refer to our SEC filings for a more detailed discussion of forward-looking statements and the risks and uncertainties of such statements. We cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements we make will be realized. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect future events, developments or changed circumstances or for any other reason, except as required by law.

Also during today's call, there will be a discussion of some items that do not conform to U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP. Please refer to slide three for a list of these non-GAAP measures, including, but not limited to, core revenue, constant currency, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted diluted earnings per share.
