Good day, and welcome to the Vitamin Shoppe Second Quarter 2018 Earnings Results Call. Today's conference is being recorded.
At this time, I would like to turn the conference over to Ms. Kathleen Heaney. Please go ahead.
Kathleen Heaney
Thank you, and good morning, everyone. Earlier this morning, we released financial results for second quarter of 2018. A copy of the earnings release can be found at vitaminshoppe.com in the Investor Relations section.
Making presentations today will be Alex Smith, Chairman; Dave Mock, Chief Merchandizing and Marketing Officer; and Bill Wafford, Chief Financial Officer.
Before we begin, I need to remind listeners that remarks made during the course of this call may contain Forward-Looking Statements within the meaning of the Private Litigation Reform Act of 1995, about the company's future results or plans, guidance, strategies and prospects. These are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results, implementation of the company's plans to differ materially.
The words believe, expect, plan, intend, estimate or anticipate and similar expressions as well as future or conditional verbs such as should, would and could identify as forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, and we expressly do not undertake any duty to update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise unless required to do so by law.
During the call, we may refer to non-GAAP figures. We have provided a reconciliation for these numbers in Table 4 and 5 in the Press Release. We refer all of you to our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission including our annual report on Form 10-K as well as our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for a more detailed discussion of the risks and uncertainties that may have a direct bearing on our operating results, our performance and our financial condition.
I will now turn the call over to Alex.
