Good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for joining us today to discuss Clearfield's results for the fiscal second quarter 2024. We also intend to provide an update on our business and current market trends.
Please turn to Slide 4. While we view 2024 as a transition year, we believe that the quarter ending in March represents the beginning of a gradual recovery as broadband service providers continue to deploy equipment and long-term demand remains robust. In the following slides, I will discuss the latest market data, which supports this year.
