Good morning, everyone. And welcome to United States Steel Corporation’s Third Quarter 2022 Earnings Conference Call and Webcast. As a reminder, today’s call is being recorded.

I will now hand the call over to Kevin Lewis, Vice President, Investor Relations and Corporate FP&A.

Kevin Lewis

Thank you, Tommy. Good morning. And thank you for joining our third quarter 2022 earnings call. Joining me on today’s call is U.S. Steel, President and CEO, Dave Burritt; and Senior Vice President and Chief Strategy and Sustainability Officer, Rich Fruehauf. Also, a special welcome to our Senior Vice President and CFO, Jessica Graziano, joining us this morning for our first earnings call at U.S. Steel.

This morning, we posted slides to accompany today’s prepared remarks. These can be found on the U.S Steel Investor page under the Events and Presentations section.

Forward-looking statements in the press release that we issued yesterday, along with our remarks today are made as of today and we undertake no duty to update them as actual events unfold.

I would now like to turn the conference call over to U.S Steel, President and CEO, Dave Burritt, who will begin on slide four.

Dave Burritt

Thank you, Kevin, and good morning to everyone joining us today. We appreciate your continued support of U.S Steel. We delivered another strong performance in the third quarter. Most importantly, we did it safely. We had one of the safest summers in our history and are on track for a third consecutive year of record safety performance.

While we certainly don’t focus on safety for awards, we are pleased that our industry-leading safety performance was recently recognized, not once but twice. Both the National Safety Council and World Steel awarded U.S Steel Safety programs with Safety Excellence Awards, further validating our leadership role in placing safety first.
