Good morning, and welcome to Dine Brands Global's third quarter 2023 conference Call. I'm Brett Levy, Dine’s Vice President of Investor Relations and Treasury. This morning's call will include prepared remarks from John Peyton, CEO; and Vance Chang, CFO. Following those prepared remarks, Tony Moralejo, President of Applebee's; and Jay Johns, President of IHOP, will also be available to address questions from the investment community during the Q&A portion of the call.

Please remember our safe harbor regarding forward-looking information. During the call, management will discuss information that is forward-looking and involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which may cause the actual results to be different than those expressed or implied.

Please evaluate the forward-looking information in the context of these factors, which are detailed in today's press release and 10-Q filing. The forward-looking statements are as of today and we assume no obligation to update or supplement these statements. We will also refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures, which are described in our press release and also available on Dine Brand's Investor Relations website. For calendar planning purposes, we are tentatively scheduled to release our Q4 2023 earnings before the market open on February 28, 2024. And to host a conference call that morning to discuss the results.

With that, it is my pleasure to turn the call over to Dine Brands CEO, John Peyton.

Thanks, Brett, and good morning, everyone. Thanks for joining us. Today, we'll provide updates on Dine's Q3 results, and how we're advancing our strategic growth agenda or as we call it, our recipe for growth. Vance will then provide a detailed financial update, including an update to our full year guidance metrics. And following those comments, Tony and Jay will join us for Q&A.
