I would now like to turn the call over to Lucia Dempsey, Head of Investor Relations. Please go ahead.
Lucia Dempsey
Thank you, and good morning, everyone. This is Lucia Dempsey, Chesapeake, Head of Investor Relations and I appreciate you joining us this morning.
Today's presentation can be accessed on our website under the Investors page and events and presentations subsection. After our prepared remarks, we will open up the call for questions.
On slide two, we show our typical disclaimers while I remind you that matters discussed on this conference call may include forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements and projections could differ materially from our actual results. The safe harbor for forward-looking statements section of our 2023 annual Report on form 10-K provides further information on the facts that could cause such statements to differ from our actual results.
Additionally, the company evaluates its performance based on certain non-GAAP measures, including adjusted gross margin, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share, and the information presented today includes the appropriate disclosures in accordance with the SEC's Regulation G.
A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the related GAAP measures has been provided in the appendix of this presentation, our earnings release and our second quarter Form 10-Q.
Here at Chesapeake Utilities, safety is our first priority. We start all meetings with a safety moment and will do so here with a safety moment on emergency preparedness as we are already in the midst of hurricane season. Our subsidiary, Florida Public Utilities, recently completed its annual hurricane preparation drill, during which our team practiced our emergency response procedures. Lessons learned in this drill have already been put to the test during Hurricane Debby earlier this week. Our customers have experienced minimal disruptions in service and we are grateful to team members across the organization who responded efficiently to keep us operating safely.
