Thank you, Linda and again, welcome, everyone. For 42 years, NRC Health has been committed to humanizing healthcare and supporting organizations and their understanding of each unique individual.

We are furthering that commitment with our recent announcement of being the first in the industry to seamlessly integrate patient insights directly into the EHR, electronic health record, to support care teams and understanding the unique and individual needs of the patients they serve.

NRC Health was also recently named in Becker's Healthcare Top 150 Places to Work in Healthcare and they specifically mentioned for creating a work culture and benefit structure supporting each associate as a unique individual. And this really represents the outcome made possible by adopting human understanding within our organization to benefit our associates.

So, let me turn the call back over to Linda to review our financial performance and then open the call to your questions.

Linda Stacy

Thank you, Kevin. Revenue for the first quarter 2023 decreased compared to the first quarter of 2022 by 5%, primarily due to the scheduled closure of our Canadian location in 2022 and focus on our core offerings. We ended the quarter with $146.7 million in TRCV, including a 1% increase in TRCV for our core solutions.
