Operator

Good morning and welcome to Element Fleet Management, first quarter 2025 Financial and operating results conference call. (Operator Instructions)

Element wishes to caution listeners that today's information contains forward-looking statements. The assumptions on which they are based, and the material risk and uncertainties that could cause them to differ or outline in the company's year-end and most recent MD&A and AIF.

Although management believes that the expectations expressed in the statements are reasonable, actual results could differ materially. The company also reminds listeners that today's call references certain non-GAAP and supplemental financial measures.

Management measures performance on a reported and adjusted basis and considers both to be useful in providing readers with a better understanding of how it assesses results. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to IFRS measures can be found in the company's most recent MD&A.

I would now like to turn the conference call over to Ms. Laura Dottori-Attanasio, Chief Executive Officer.
