Thank you, operator. Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to the first quarter conference call. I'm joined here today by Jesse Gary, Century's President and Chief Executive Officer; and Peter Trpkovski, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. After our prepared comments, we will take your questions.

As a reminder, today's presentation is available on our website at www.centuryaluminum.com. We use our website as a means of disclosing material information about the company and for complying with Regulation FD.

Turning to Slide 2. Please take a moment to review the cautionary statements with respect to forward-looking statements and non-GAAP financial measures in today's discussion.

And with that, I'll hand the call to Jesse.

Thanks, Chad, and thanks to everyone for joining. I'll start today with a discussion of the dynamic global aluminum market and the opportunities that we see for Century going forward to provide secure supply chains into the U.S. and European markets.

I'll then review our first quarter operational performance, including the excellent progress we made on our Mt. Holly expansion project and the restart of Potline
