Thank you, operator. And thank you everybody for joining. Earlier today, Aqua Metals issued a press release providing an operation update and discussing financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023. This release is available on the Investor Relations section on the company’s website at aquametals.com.
Hosting the call today are Steve Cotton, President and Chief Executive Officer; and Judd Merrill, Chief Financial Officer.
Before we begin, I would like to remind participants that, during the call, management will be making forward-looking statements. Please refer to the company's report on Form 10-K filed March 9th, or Form 10-Q filed today May 4th, for a summary of the forward-looking statements, and the risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those forward-looking statements.
Aqua Metals cautions investors not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. The company does not undertake and specifically disclaims any obligation to update or revise such statements to reflect new circumstances or unanticipated events as they occur except as required by law.
As a reminder, after the formal remarks, we will be taking questions. Questions will be accepted over the phone from analysts and other investors can submit a question using the online webcast portal provided in today's and last week's press release. We will take as many questions as we can in our available time slot.
To start the call, we will show a brief video that highlights our progress. For those that have dialed in, you will be able to hear the narration and the replays will be available on the website. Steve will lead the call from there.
