Operator

Good day, and welcome to the Second Quarter 2024 AXIS Capital Earnings Call. All participants will be in listen-only mode. [Operator Instructions]. Please note this event is being recorded.

I would now like to turn the conference over to Cliff Gallant, Head of Investor Relations. Please go ahead.

Cliff Gallant

Thank you. Good morning, and welcome to our second quarter 2024 conference call. Our earnings press release and financial supplement were issued last night. If you would like copies please visit the Investor Information section of our website at axiscapital.com. We set aside an hour for today's call, which is also available as an audio webcast on our website.

Joining me on today's call are Vince Tizzio, our President and CEO; and Pete Vogt, our CFO. In addition, I would like to remind everyone that the statements made during this call, including the question-and-answer session, which are not historical facts, may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual events or results may differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including the risk factors set forth in the company's most recent report on the Form 10-K or our quarterly report on Form 10-Q and other reports the company files with the SEC.

This includes the additional risks identified in the cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements in our earnings press release issued last night. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures may be discussed during this conference call. Reconciliations are included in our earnings press release and financial supplement.

And with that, I'll turn the call over to Vince.

Vince Tizzio

Thank you, Cliff. Good morning, and thank you for joining our call. During the second quarter and first half of the year, we continue to make strong progress against our stated strategy of achieving specialty underwriting leadership. Indeed, our performance during the quarter demonstrated advancements across the key metrics we outlined at our Investor Day this past May.
