Hey, welcome, thank you for joining Autodesk Annual Meeting of Stockholders. I'm Dave Gennarelli, Director of Investor Relations. Our General Counsel, Pascal Di Fronzo, will lead us through the results of this year's proposals as voted on by our shareholders. Then our CFO, Mark Hawkins, will give an overview of Autodesk.
