Presentation
Operator
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for standing by. Welcome to Maple Leaf’s First Quarter 2024 Financial Results Conference Call. As a reminder, this conference call is being broadcast live on the Internet and recorded. All lines have been placed on mute to prevent any background noise. Please note that there will be a question-and-answer session following the formal remarks. We will go over the instructions for the question-and-answer session following the conclusion of the formal presentation.
I would now like to turn the conference over to Janet Craig, Investor Relations at Maple Leaf Foods. Please go ahead, Ms. Craig.
Janet Craig
Thank you, Joelle, and good morning, everyone. Speaking on the call this morning will be Curtis Frank, President and Chief Executive Officer; and Dave Smales, Chief Financial Officer.
Before we begin, I would like to remind you that some statements made on today’s call may constitute forward-looking information and our future results may materially differ from what we discuss. Please refer to our Q1 2024 MD&A and other information on our website for a broader description of operations and risk factors that could affect the company’s performance.
We’ve uploaded our Q1 investor deck to our website, which includes support material for the quarter. As always, the Investor Relations team will be available after the call for any follow-up questions you may have.
And with that, I’ll turn the call over to Curtis Frank. Please go ahead, Curtis.
