Daniel Cravens
Welcome to Alcon's fourth quarter 2023 earnings conference call. Today, we issued a press release, interim financial report, and annual report posted and posted a supplemental slide presentation on our website to enhance today's call. You can find all these documents in the Investor Relations section of our website at investor.alcon.com.
Joining me on today's call are David Endicott, our Chief Executive Officer and Tim Stonesifer, our Chief Financial Officer. Our press release, presentation and discussion will include forward-looking statements. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking statements as a result of new information or future developments, except as required by law. Our actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.
Important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in our forward-looking statements are included in Alcon's Form 20-F and our earnings press release and interim financial report on file with the SEC and available on the SEC's website. Non-IFRS financial measures used by the company may be calculated differently from, and therefore, may not be comparable to, similar measures used at other companies. These non-IFRS measures should be considered along with, but not as alternatives to the operating performance measures as prescribed for IFRS. Please see a reconciliation between our non-IFRS measures with directly comparable measures presented in accordance with our IFRS and our public filings. For discussion purposes, our comments on growth are expressed in constant currency.
