Drew Borst -

Let's get started with our next session. I'm pleased to welcome Lionsgate to the stage. We're joined by Michael Burns, who's the Vice Chairman, a position he's held since 2000. During Michael's tenure, he's played an integral role in building the company into a global leader in film and TV content production. Among the recent accomplishments is the 2016 acquisition of the Starz premium network, which brings me to our other guest, which is Jeff Hirsch. He is the COO of Starz since 2016. Jeff has helped drive the successful launch of the Starz OTT streaming service in the U.S., which has over 4 million subscribers and is now expanding internationally.

So thank you both for being here. Appreciate it.

Michael R. Burns - Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. - Executive Vice Chairman
