Good day and thank you for standing by. Welcome to the Q3 2024 Black Hills Corporation Earnings Conference Call. [Operator Instructions]. Please be advised that today's conference is being recorded. After the speaker's presentation, there will be a question-and-answer session. [Operator Instructions]

I would now like to hand the conference over to your speaker today Sal Diaz, Director of Investor Relations.

Sal Diaz

Thank you. Good morning and welcome to Black Hills Corporation's third quarter 2024 earnings conference call. You can find our earnings release and materials for our call this morning on our website at www.blackhillscorp.com under the Investor Relations heading.

Before we begin today we would like to note that Black Hills will be attending the Edison Electric Institute's Financial Conference on November 10th through November 12th. Our leadership team will be meeting with investors and analysts at the conference and the investor presentation will be posted on our website prior to the event.

Leading our quarterly earnings discussion today are Linn Evans, President and Chief Executive Officer; Kimberly Nooney, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; and Marne Jones, Senior Vice President Utilities.

During our earnings, discussion today comments we make may contain forward-looking statements as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission and there are a number of uncertainties inherent in such comments. Although we believe that our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, actual results may differ materially.

We direct you to our earnings release Slide 2 of the investor presentation on our website and our most recent Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a list of some of the factors that could cause future results to differ materially from our expectations.

I will now turn the call over to Linn Evans. Linn?

Linn Evans

Thank you, Sal. Good morning and thank you all for joining us today. I'll begin my comments with a brief overview of the quarter, Kimberly will provide our financial update, and Marne will provide more detail on our team's operational performance and our strategic progress.
