Thank you. Let’s turn to Page 9 of the presentation that summarizes the terms of the transaction. The transition is subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions. Omnicell will purchase Aesynt for $275 million in an all-cash transaction. Aesynt reported unaudited revenue of $182 million and adjusted EBITDA of $20 million for the 12- month period ended June 30, 2015. To finance the transaction, Omnicell will use available cash on-hand, and in addition, Omnicell will enter into a new credit facility with Wells Fargo bank that allows the company to borrow up to $300 million. We expect the transaction to close in 2016 following customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. If the transaction does not complete due to regulatory issues, Omnicell will owe reverse breakup fee of $15 million. Excluding transaction related expenses and other one-time purchase accounting adjustments, we expect this acquisition to be accretive to Omnicell’s non-GAAP EPS immediately. We also expect the transaction to be accretive to GAAP EPS within 18 months after closing the transaction. I will discuss the summary of our 3Q ‘15 financial results now and our guidance for the remainder of 2015. Our 3Q ‘15 revenues of $125.2 million were up 11.3% from the same quarter last year. Earnings per share in accordance with GAAP were $0.22 in 2Q ‘15 which is up from $0.20 in 2Q ‘14. Gross margin at 51% was unchanged from the previous quarter. In addition to GAAP financial results, we report our results on a non-GAAP basis which excludes stock compensation expense and amortization of tangible assets associated with acquisitions and one-time acquisition related expenses. We use non-GAAP financial statements in addition to GAAP financial statements because we believe it is useful for investors to understand acquisition and amortization related costs and non-cash stock compensation expenses and other component of our reported results, as well as one-time events such as the gain on Avantec investments in 2015 and one-time acquisition related expenses. A full reconciliation of our GAAP to non-GAAP results is included in our third quarter earnings press release and is posted on our website. You can find the additional GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations in the press release this quarter as we provided you regularly. On a non-GAAP basis, earnings per share was $0.36 in 3Q ‘15, up $0.06 from the same quarter last year or up 20%. The acquisitions of MACH4 and Avantec contributed approximately $6.5 million of revenue. We diluted approximately $0.01 to non-GAAP EPS in 3Q ‘15. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, which also exclude stock compensation amortization and the amortization of acquisition-related costs, was $23.8 million for the third quarter of 2015, up from $21.4 million a year ago. Our business is also reported in segments, consisting of automation analytics and medication adherence. Automation analytics consists of our OmniRx automated dispensing cabinets, Anesthesia Workstations, Central Pharmacy, Omnicell supply, Pandora analytics and MACH4 robotic dispensing systems. Our acquisition of Avantec is also included in this segment. The medication adherence segment consists of all adherence package consumables which are now branded SureMed, an equipment used by pharmacists to create adherence packages. Our acquisitions of MTS Medication Technologies and SurgiChem Limited are included in the medication adherence segment. As a reminder, we now report certain corporate expenses that cannot be easily applied to either segments separately. On a segment basis, our automation and analytics segment contributed $103 million in revenue in 3Q ‘15, up from $89.5 million in 2Q ‘14 or an increase of 15%. $26.7 million of GAAP operating income for this segment compares to $23.7 million of GAAP operating income last year. $29.1 million of non-GAAP operating income in 3Q ‘15 compares to $25.2 million last year. The medication adherence segment contributed $22.3 million of revenue to the quarter compared to $22 million in 2Q ‘14. GAAP operating income of $0.3 million compares to $3.6 million a year ago. $1.7 million of non-GAAP operating income this quarter compares to $4.7 million of non-GAAP operating income in 3Q a year ago. Non-GAAP common expenses were $11.1 million compared to $12 million to 2Q ‘14. In 2Q ‘15, our cash balance decreased from $88 million to $57.8 million primarily due to the repurchase program or our stock. During the quarter, we repurchased approximately 744,000 shares for $25 million, an average price of $33.60 per share. We have approximately $4 million of stock repurchase authorization left. Accounts receivable days sales outstanding or DSO were 85, down 10 days from last quarter. The decrease in DSO this quarter is a result of stronger collections as we completed implementations and increased revenue. As expected, the DSO has started to normalize after the unusually high DSO in the previous quarter. We expect further improvement in the next quarter. We generally expect DSO to be in the 65 to 75 days range. We reviewed the collectability of our receivables right early and we do not believe the fluctuation of DSO are indicative of a change in our rate of bad debt. Inventories are $49.5 million, up $2.4 million from last quarter as we compare for our anticipated 4Q ‘15 installations. Our headcount was 1,444 or up 26 from last quarter. Now, moving to revenue drivers. Let’s start with automation and analytics 3Q revenue. While we made progress in 3Q ‘15, in converting backlog into revenue relative to 2Q ‘15, the 3Q bookings were below our expectations which resulted in a lesser opportunity to convert bookings into revenue in the quarter. This will also have an impact on revenue on the fourth quarter. However, we are seeing a strong trajectory and good feasibility into our bookings for the fourth quarter and we see no significant issues in the market. Therefore, we are reconfirming our total year guidance for product bookings to be between $400 million and $420 million in 2015 consistent with our previous guidance. The core fundamentals of our business remains strong driven by our leading differentiated products evidenced by our 98% retention rate of existing customers. In the three quarters leading up to 3Q ‘15, we had an average of 42% of orders from new and competitive conversion customers making first time installations, which is higher than our 10 years historical range of 33% to 40%. As a result, the makeover backlog has been more heavily weighted towards new customers who generally take longer to install a product than existing customers. While a percentage of orders from new and competitive customers was lower than the three quarters leading up to 2Q ‘15, the relevant impact of the first bookings to revenue was smaller but still noticeable in the third quarter. Another good indicator of the strength of the core fundamentals of our business is that we continue to close a solid mix of competitive wins and our existing customers continue to expand implementations. 28% of our third quarter bookings in the automation analytics cycle and from customers making first time installations of Omnicell systems underscore in the competitiveness of our solutions. Over two-thirds of those are competitive conversions and the remainder was greenfield customers who have never automated before. Moving to medical adherence. Medical adherence 3Q ‘15 revenue was below our expectation and slightly down year-over-year driven by lower customer demands for consumables but continued for currency impact and lower than expected equipment revenue including our M5000 product not being a stable in the market yet in 2015 as well as some seasonality in our equipment sales. We have a beta of the M5000 currently in the final stages of consolidation at a customer site and we believe we will have customer acceptance in early 2016. And we also have strong customer demand for this automated solution. While 3Q ‘15 revenue was lower than expected, non-GAAP earnings per share is meeting our internal expectations due to the strong product margin mix we had for 3Q ‘15 and a strong cost for total management. Let me now move to guidance for the remainder of the year. For the rest of 2015, we are reaffirming our guidance ranges for bookings and non-GAAP EPS. We expect product bookings to be between $400 million and $420 million in 2015 consistent with our previous guidance. We expect non-GAAP earnings to be between $1.31 and $1.36 share per share, also consistent with our previous guidance. We believe the expected revenue to be at the lower end of $495 million to $510 million range. Given the dynamics discussed earlier on the call, we now expect 2015 revenue to be between $478 million and $482 million. We are pleased with the progress made in cost efficiencies. We now expect non-GAAP operating margins for 2015 to be approximately 15% after absorbing the cost to integrate the acquisitions to efficiencies. This is up from the 14% guidance provided earlier in the 2Q ‘15 earnings call. Finally, we are assuming an annual average effective tax rate of 39% from GAAP earnings, slightly up from our previous assumptions driven by lower income and low cost tax jurisdictions. This does not include any R&D tax credit impact as it has not been approved by government yet. To round off our quarterly and Aesynt acquisition update, I will hand the call back to Randall to discuss business and customer highlights and final comments on the acquisition.
