Good day and welcome to the Ryerson Holding Corporation's First Quarter 2024 Conference Call. Today's conference is being recorded. There will be a question-and-answer session later. [Operator Instructions]
At this time, I would like to turn the conference over to Pratham Dear. Please go ahead.
Pratham Dear
Good morning. Thank you for joining Ryerson Holding Corporation's first quarter 2024 earnings call. On our call, we have Eddie Lehner, Ryerson's President and Chief Executive Officer; Mike Burbach, our Chief Operating Officer; Jim Claussen, our Chief Financial Officer and Molly Kannan, our Chief Accounting Officer and Corporate Controller; John Orth, our Executive Vice President of Operations; Mike Hamilton, our Vice President of Corporate Supply Chain and Jorge Beristain, our Vice President of Finance, will be joining us for Q&A.
Certain comments on this call contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by the forward-looking statements.
These risks include, but are not limited to, those set forth under Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31st, 2023, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31st, 2024, and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made and are not guarantees of future performance.
In addition, our remarks today refer to several non-GAAP financial measures that are intended to supplement, but not substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is provided in our earnings release filed on Form 8-K yesterday and also available on the Investor Relations section of our website.
I'll now turn the call over to Eddie.
Edward Lehner
Thank you, Pratham and thank you all for joining us this morning. I want to start by recognizing our 4,600 strong Ryerson team for prioritizing a safe and productive operating environment for our over 110 facilities across North America and China. In the first quarter of 2024, our service center network celebrated two major keystones: the startup of operations at Central Steel & Wire's flagship location at the University Park, Illinois Service Center, as well as completing the conversion of 17 service centers to a unified ERP system.
