John Morgan
Good morning and thank you for joining us. With me today for Lexmark’s Third Quarter 2007 Earnings Conference Call are Paul Curlander, Lexmark’s Chairman and CEO and John Gamble, Lexmark’s Executive Vice President and CFO. After their prepared remarks we will open the call for your questions as time permits. We ask that you please limit yourself to one question and if needed, one follow up so that we can get to everyone’s questions. Following the conclusion of this conference call, a complete replay will be made available from our investor relations website located at http://investor.lexmark.com. Currently, in the upper right hand corner of this website you’ll find today’s earnings release as well as the supplemental slide deck for the third quarter which includes the reconciliations of GAAP and non GAAP financial information.
Now before we get started I just want to remind everyone that we will be hosting our 2007 Analyst Day Briefing on the morning of November 14 at the New York Stock Exchange. For more information, please visit the upcoming events section of our investor relations website.
Now, as a reminder, any of today’s remarks that are not statement of historical fact are forward looking statements and involve certain risks and uncertainties that are disclosed in the safe harbor section of our earnings releases and SEC filings. Actual results may differ materially from such statements. Lexmark under takes no obligation to update any forward looking statements. With that, I’ll turn it over to Paul.
