Julie Quattro
Good afternoon and thank you for participating in this call. With me today are Bo Ewald, our Chief Executive Officer; Doug Britt, our Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing; and Kathy Lanterman, our Chief Financial Officer. This call is intended to elaborate on a news release issued earlier today to report our financial results for the fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2008 which ended on June 27, 2008.
Before we begin, I would like to remind the matters we are about to discuss, other than historical financial data are forward-looking statements and are subjects to risks and uncertainties described in our earnings release, our Form 10-K for the year ended June 29, 2007 and subsequently filed reports on Form 10-Q.
The information provided on this call is as of June 27, 2008 and we do not undertake to update this information during the quarter. Actual results may vary. During the course of this conference call, we will describe certain non-GAAP for pro forma financial measures in an effort to provide additional information to investors. These should be considered in addition to and not in lieu of, comparable GAAP financial measures. Please refer to the Investor Relations section on our website at sgi.com/investors for the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and related reconciliation.
This conference call is open to the public and is being webcast. An audio recording of the call will be archived until September 4, 2008 on our website. During this call, we will refer to a presentation that is posted at sgi.com/investorrelations. Please take a moment to open that file now. At the conclusion of our prepared remarks, we will entertain Q&A. With that introduction, I will turn the call over to Bo.
