Thank you, Tracy, and good morning everyone. Welcome to Bristow Group's first quarter fiscal year 2023 earnings call. I'm joined on the phone today with our President and Chief Executive Officer, Chris Bradshaw; and Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, Jennifer Whalen.
Before we get started, I would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that during the course of this call, management may make forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that are described in more detail on Slide three of our investor presentation. You may access our Investor presentation on our website.
We will also reference certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA and free cash flow. A reconciliation of such measures to GAAP is included in the earnings release and our investor presentation.
I'll now turn the call over to our President and CEO. Chris?
Chris Bradshaw
Thank you, Crystal. Welcome to the call everyone and greetings from the U.K. where the Bristow Executive leadership team and Board of Directors have enjoyed the opportunity to spend time on the ground this week with our team in Aberdeen. As always, I will begin our prepared remarks with a note on safety, which is Bristow's most important core value and our highest operational priority.
The company achieved very good safety performance in the quarter ended June 30th, with zero air accidents and a 50% year-over-year reduction in lost work days. I want to commend all of our Bristow team members around the world for their continued dedication to place safety first every day. I also want to thank the Bristow team members, who have worked diligently over the last several months to successfully deliver on several of the company's strategic priorities and I would like to highlight a few of those successful outcomes here.
