Thank you, Latif and good morning everyone and welcome to Sonoco's first quarter 2022 investor conference call. Joining me today are Howard Coker, President and Chief Executive Officer; Rodger Fuller, Chief Operating Officer; and Julie Albrecht, Chief Financial Officer.

Also I'm pleased to announce that Lisa Weeks has joined Sonoco and will be my successor as Head of Investor Relations. Lisa is on the call with us today and I will be working with her on a transition during the next several months. We're glad to have Lisa as part of the Sonoco team and welcome aboard.

A news release reporting our financial results was issued before the market opened today and is available on the Investor Relations website at sonoco.com. In addition, we will reference a presentation on our first quarter financial results, which was posted on the website this morning.

Before we go further, let me remind you that today's call and presentation contains a number of forward-looking statements based on current expectations, estimates, and projections. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks and uncertainty. Therefore, our actual results may differ materially.

Furthermore, today's presentation includes the use of non-GAAP financial measures, which management believes provides useful information to investors about the company's financial condition and results of operations.

Further information about the company's use of non-GAAP financial measures, including definitions as well as a reconciliation of those measures to the most closely related GAAP measure is also available in the Investor Relations section of our website.
