Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the Six Flags’ Second Quarter 2023 Earnings Conference Call. My name is Drew, and I will be your operator for today's call. [Operator Instructions]
I will now turn the call over to Evan Bertrand, Vice President, Investor Relations and Treasurer.
Evan Bertrand
Good morning. And welcome to our second quarter 2023 call.
With me is Selim Bassoul, President and CEO of Six Flags; and Gary Mick, our Chief Financial Officer.
We will begin the call with prepared comments and then open the call to your questions. Our comments will include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in such statements, and the company undertakes no obligation to update or revise these statements.
In addition, on the call, we will discuss non-GAAP financial measures. Investors can find both a detailed discussion of business risks and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures in the company’s annual reports, quarterly reports and other forms filed or furnished with the SEC.
At this time, I will turn the call over to Selim.
Selim Bassoul
Good morning. Thank you for joining our call. Today, we will focus on three areas. First, I will provide an update on the progress we have made on our transformation. Second, Gary will provide details on our financial results and our outlook for the remainder of the year. Finally, I will return to discuss our four key strategic pillars for sustainable, long-term profit growth.
Our team continues to work hard to transform the company as we strive to reach our full potential. Any transformation begins with a vision for what the company can be. For us, our vision is to deliver a truly exceptional experience for our guests and sustainable profit growth over the long-term for our shareholders, holders. Hardware is turning that vision into a reality. Despite a challenging weather backdrop, we saw a solid growth trajectory in second quarter and first half of the year.
