Good morning. My name is Robert, and I will be your conference operator today. At this time, I'd like to welcome everyone to Dollar General's second-quarter 2023 earnings conference call. Today is Thursday, August 31st, 2023.
All lines have been placed on mute to prevent any background noise. This call is being recorded. Instructions for listening to the replay of the call are available in the company's earnings press release issued this morning. Now, I'd like to turn the conference over to your host, Mr.
Kevin Walker, vice president of investor relations. Kevin, you may now begin your conference.

Jeff Owen -- Chief Executive Officer
Thank you, Kevin, and welcome to everyone joining our call. Before we discuss the quarter, I want to address the tragic event of last Saturday. On August 26, we lost one member of the DG family and two customers to a senseless and hate-filled active violence in our store in Jacksonville, Florida. We extend our deepest sympathies to their families and friends, as well as to the greater Jacksonville community.
