Good day, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Fourth Quarter and Yearend 2017 Earnings Conference Call for Ciena Corporation. At this time, all participants are in a listen-only-mode. Later, we will conduct a question-and-answer session and instructions will follow at that time.
As a reminder, this conference is being recorded. I'd now like to hand the floor over to Greg Lampf, Vice President, Investor Relations.
