Thanks, Chad. Good morning, and welcome to the AXIS Capital First Quarter 2023 Conference Call. Our earnings press release and financial supplement were issued yesterday evening after the market closed. If you would like copies, please visit the Investor Information section of our website at axiscapital.com. Joining me on today's call are Albert Benchimol, our President and CEO; Vince Tizzio, CEO of Specialty Insurance and Reinsurance and our future group CEO effective May 4; and Pete Vogt, our CFO.

Before we begin, I would like to remind everyone that the statements made during this call including the question-and-answer section, which are not historical facts, may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Actual events or results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including the risk factors set forth in the company's most recent report on the Form 10-K or our quarterly report on Form 10-Q and other reports the company files with the SEC.

This includes the additional risks identified in the cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements in our earnings press release issued last night. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements. In addition, this presentation may contain non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations are included in our earnings press release and financial supplement. And with that, I turn the call over to Albert.

Albert Benchimol

Thank you, Miranda. Good morning, and thank you for taking the time to join us today. Welcome to our first-quarter investor call. As we'll discuss shortly, this was a strong quarter for AXIS. And it gives me comfort to hand over the reins, after nearly 13 years with the company, feeling very positive about the progress that we've achieved and where the company is today. And I feel even better about its future.
