Good day, and welcome to Global Ship Lease Q1 2023 Earnings Call. [Operator Instructions].
I'd now like to welcome Mr. Ian Webber, Chief Executive Officer, to begin the conference. Ian, over to you.
Ian Webber
Thank you. Thank you very much. Good morning, good afternoon, everybody, and welcome to the Global Ship Lease First Quarter 2023 Earnings Conference Call.
The slides that accompany today's presentation are available on our website at www.globalshiplease.com.
Slides 2 and 3 remind you as normal that today's call may include forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations and assumptions and are, by their nature, inherently uncertain and outside of the company's control.
Actual results may differ materially from these forward-looking statements due to many factors including those described in the safe harbor section of the slide presentation. We also draw your attention to the Risk Factors section of our most recent annual report filed on Form 20-F, which is for 2023 and was filed on March 23 this year. You can obtain this far on our website or via the SEC's. All of our statements are qualified by these and other disclosures in our reports filed with the SEC. We do not undertake any duty to update forward-looking statements.
The reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to which we will refer during this call to the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, usually refer to the earnings -- please refer to the earnings release that we issued this morning, which is also available on our website.
As usual, I'm joined today by our Executive Chairman, George Youroukos; our Chief Financial Officer, Tassos Psaropoulos; and our Chief Commercial Officer, Tom Lister. George will begin the call with a high-level commentary on GSL and our industry, and then Tassos, Tom and I will take you through our recent activity, the quarterly results themselves and the financials and the current market environment. After that, we'll be pleased to take your questions.
So turning now to Slide 4. I'll pass the call over to George.
