Operator

Thank you for standing by. My name is Jeannie and I will be your conference operator today. At this time, I would like to welcome everyone to the SM Energy's Second Quarter 2024 Financial and Operating Results Q&A Conference Call. All lines have been placed on mute to prevent any background noise. After the speakers' remarks, there will be a question-and-answer session. [Operator Instructions]

I would now like to turn the conference over to Jennifer Martin Samuels, Vice President, Investor Relations and ESG Stewardship. You may begin.

Jennifer Martin Samuels

Thank you, Jeannie. Good morning, everyone. In today's call, we may reference the earnings release, IR presentation or prepared remarks, all of which are posted to our website. Thank you for joining us. To answer your questions today, we have our President and CEO, Herb Vogel and CFO, Wade Pursell.

Before we get started, I need to remind you that our discussion today may include forward-looking statements and discussion of non-GAAP measures. I direct you to the accompanying slide deck, earnings release and Risk Factors section of our most recently filed 10-K, which describe risks associated with forward-looking statements that could cause actual results to differ.

Also, please see the slide deck appendix and earnings release for definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and discussion of forward-looking non-GAAP measures. Also, look for our second quarter 10-Q that was filed this morning.

And with that, I will turn it over to Herb for a brief opening commentary. Herb?

Herbert Vogel

Thank you, Jennifer. Good morning and thank you for joining us. It was an outstanding quarter with a lot of great news. So, let's go ahead and get started with the Q&A. I'll turn it back to Jeanie to start taking your questions.
