Management
Thank you, operator. Good morning, everyone and thank you for joining us for Shutterstock's second quarter 2018 earnings call. Joining me today is Jon Oringer, our Founder, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman; and Steven Berns, our Chief Operating and Chief Financial Officer. During this call, management may make forward-looking statements that are subject to risk and uncertainties, including predictions, expectations, estimates and other information. These include statements relating to long-term effects of our investments in our business, the future success and financial impact of new and existing product offerings, our future growth and profitability, our long-term strategy, our growth potential, potential future results of efforts to reduce our expense footprint, and implementation of large-scale business solutions and our 2018 guidance. Our actual results may differ materially from the results predicted. And reported results should not be considered as an indication of future performance. Please refer to today's press release and the reports and documents we filed from time-to-time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including the section entitled Risk Factors in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 for discussions of important risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in any forward-looking statements, we may make on this call. On this call, we will refer to adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, revenue growth on a constant-currency basis, including and excluding Webdam, revenue per download on a constant currency basis and free cash flow, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures. You can find the description of these items, along with a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in today's earnings release, which is posted on the Investor Relations section of our website. We believe that the use of these measures in conjunction with GAAP financial measures allow investors to consider our operating results on the same basis used by management. This provides them with important additional insights about the company's overall business and operating performance, and enhances comparability in assessing our financial reporting. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Lastly, as a reminder, we sold Webdam in the first quarter of 2018 and therefore Webdam did not contribute to our second quarter 2018 operating results. However, Webdam was included in our 2017 results and therefore some of our commentary today will specifically state that we are excluding the results of Webdam, meaning that we are excluding it from the second quarter of 2017 to provide a comparable basis to the second quarter of 2018. And with that, I would like to turn the call over to Jon.
