Operator

Good day. My name is Savannah [ph], and I’ll be your conference operator for today. At this time, I’d like to welcome everyone to the Jacobs’ Fiscal Second Quarter 2022 Earnings Conference Call and Webcast. Today’s call is being recorded. All lines have been placed on mute to prevent any background noise. And after the speaker’s remark, there will be a question-and-answer session. [Operator Instructions] Thank you.

And I would now like to turn the conference over to Jonathan Doros. Please go ahead.

Jonathan Doros

Thank you, Savannah. Good morning to all. Our earnings announcement and 10-Q were filed this morning and we have posted a copy of this slide presentation on our website, which we will reference during the call.

I would like to refer you to Slide 2 of the presentation materials for information regarding forward-looking statements, non-GAAP financial measures and pro forma figures. For pro forma comparisons, the current and prior periods include the results of recent acquisitions, including StreetLight Data and BlackLynx as well as our strategic investment in PA Consulting for the full period.

Turning to the agenda on Slide 3. Speaking on today’s call will be our Jacobs’ Chair and CEO, Steve Demetriou; President and Chief Operating Officer, Bob Pragada; and President and Chief Financial Officer, Kevin Berryman. Steve will begin by updating the progress we are making against our strategy and then discuss the launch of our Climate Action Plan; Bob will then review our performance by line of business; and Kevin will provide a more in-depth discussion of our financial metrics as well as review of our balance sheet and cash flow.

Finally, Steve will provide some details on our updated outlook, along with some closing remarks, and then we’ll open the call for your questions. Throughout the presentation and in the appendix of this presentation, we provided additional ESG-related information, including examples of our leading ESG solutions.
