Operator

Good morning, and welcome to Columbus McKinnon's Second Quarter Fiscal 2025 Earnings Conference Call. My name is Eric, and I will be your conference operator today. As a reminder, this call is being recorded.

I would now like to turn the conference over to Kristine Moser, Vice President of Investor Relations and Treasurer.

Kristine Moser

Thank you, and welcome to Columbus McKinnon's second quarter fiscal 2025 earnings conference call. The earnings release and presentation to supplement today's call are available for download on our Investor Relations website at investors.cmco.com.

On the call with me today are David Wilson, our President and Chief Executive Officer; and Greg Rustowicz, our Chief Financial Officer. In a moment, David and Greg will walk you through our financial and operating performance for the quarter. Before we begin our remarks, please let me remind you that we have our Safe Harbor statement on Slide 2.

During the course of this call, management may make forward-looking statements in regards to our current plans, beliefs and expectations. These statements are not guarantees for future performance and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties and other factors that can cause actual results and events to differ materially from the results and events contemplated by these forward-looking statements.

I'd also like to remind you that Management will refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures. You can find reconciliations of the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures on the company's Investor Relations website and in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Please see our earnings release and our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for more information. Today's prepared remarks will be followed by a question-and-answer session. We respectfully ask that you limit yourself to one question and one follow-up.

With that, I'll turn the call over to David.

David Wilson

Thank you, Kristine, and good morning, everyone.

Before we begin, I know we've all been attentive to the impact that Hurricanes Helene and Milton have had on communities across the Southeast region of the United States. Given CMCO's footprint across this region, this hits particularly close to home for us. In the wake of these storms, Columbus McKinnon has taken a variety of actions to care for our team members, our customers and the communities that have been impacted.
