Good day, everyone, and welcome to the Chesapeake Utilities Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Earnings Conference Call. [Operator Instructions].
I would now like to turn the call over to Alex Whitelam, Head of Investor Relations. Please go ahead.
Alex Whitelam
Thank you, and good morning, everyone. We appreciate you joining today as we highlight Chesapeake Utilities Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results for 2022. As you saw in our press release issued yesterday, the company finished the year with strong financial results despite the sweeping changes in the macroeconomic environment.
Given our 2022 results and positive outlook, we increased our EPS and capital expenditures guidance, which continues our long-proven track record of delivering top-level performance. As shown on Slide 2, participating with me on the call today are Jeff Householder, President and Chief Executive Officer; Beth Cooper, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Assistant Corporate Secretary; and Jim Moriarty, Executive Vice President, General Counsel, Corporate Secretary and Chief Policy and Risk Officer. We also have other members of our management team joining us virtually.
Today's presentation can be accessed on our website under the Investors page and Events and Presentation subsection. After our prepared remarks, we will open the call up for questions. Moving to Slide 3. I'd like to remind you that matters discussed in this conference call may include forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements and projections could differ materially from our actual results.
The safe harbor for forward-looking statements section of the company's 2022 Form 10-K provides further information on the factors that could cause such statements to differ from our actual results. Additionally, the company evaluates its performance based on non-GAAP adjusted gross margin and has provided the appropriate disclosures in accordance with the SEC's Regulation G. A reconciliation of GAAP gross margin to non-GAAP adjusted gross margin is provided in the appendix of this presentation and in our earnings release.
Now I'll turn the call over to Jeff to provide some opening remarks on the company's financial results, including the key drivers of our record performance. Jeff?
