All right. I think we'll go ahead and get started here. Green Plains' CEO, Todd Becker is leading the company on an ambitious, strategic pivot from a pure-play [ethanol] company into an efficient biorefinery with a variety of profitable income streams, including ultra-high-protein, corn oil, and clean sugar, and the list goes on. The transformation, creates the opportunity for GPRE to rebase its earnings and cash flow higher, while improving earnings predictability.
Welcome, Todd. We really appreciate you being here.
Todd Becker - Green Plains Inc. - CEO
