Thank you, operator, and good morning, everyone. Thanks for joining our Second Quarter 2018 Earnings Conference Call. We saw a strong come back in our business during the second quarter, following the suspension of production from late January to mid-March. A government-mandated restriction on the supply of natural gas interrupted our normal business during the first quarter. Our total revenue increased by 45.5% to $33.1 million, benefiting from continuing upticks in average selling prices for both CPM (sic) [ CMP ] and offset printing paper. Looking forward, while a government-mandated restriction continues to pose risks and uncertainties to our business, we expect that prices for our major products to remain relatively stable at the current levels. On July 17, 2018, the company's Board of Directors approved a corporate name change to IT Tech Packaging, Inc. The name change became effective on August 1, 2018. In connection with the name change, the company's common stock began trading under the new ticker symbol, ITP. Now I will turn the call over to our CFO, Ms. Jing Hao, who will review and comment on the second quarter financial results. Her comments will be delivered in English by my colleague, Janice Wang. Janice, please go ahead.

Thanks, Dan, and thanks everyone for being on the call. Next, on behalf of the management team, I will summarize some key financial results for the second quarter of 2018. Also I will occasionally refer to specific production lines associated with various products. I will make clear to which products I am referring to. For reference, the numbering system for our production lines is provided on Slide #17. Now let's look at our financial performance for the second quarter of 2018. Please turn to Slide #7.

Turning to Slide 8. For the second quarter of 2018, the CMP segment, including both regular CMP and lightweight CMP, generated revenue of $28.9 million, representing 87.2% of total revenue. $23.3 million of revenue was from our regular CMP products and $5.6 million was from lightweight CMP. CMP segment volume increased by 1.9% to 48,084 tonnes, of which 38,541 tonnes were regular CMP and 9,543 tonnes were lightweight CMP. Average selling price, or ASP, for regular CMP increased by 65.3% to $605 per tonne, while ASP for lightweight CMP increased 66.3% to $587 per tonne. Turning to Slide #9. For the second quarter of 2018, our offset printing paper segment generated revenue of $4.2 million, representing 12.8% of total revenue.
