Thank you, and good morning. Before we begin our call today, I want to remind you that in order to talk about our company, we’re going to mention a few things that are not historical facts. Some of the statements that will be made on this call could be forward-looking and reflect a number of known and unknown risks. I’d like to refer you to our press release issued today along with our 2022 10-K and other public filings that outline those risks, all of which can be found on RPC’s website at www.rpc.net.
In today’s earnings release and conference call, we’ll also be referring to several non-GAAP measure of operating performance. This non-GAAP measures are adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted operating profit, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA. We're using these non-GAAP measures today because they allow us to compare performance consistently over various periods.
In addition, RPC is required to use EBITDA to report compliance with financial covenants under our revolving credit facility. Our press release issued today and our website contain reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to operating income, net income and diluted earnings per share, which are the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Please review these disclosures if you're interested in seeing how they're calculated. If you've not received our press release for any reason, please visit our website at rpc.net for a copy.
I'll now turn the call over to our President and CEO, Ben Palmer.
