Tomohiko Sano
JPMorgan Chase & Co, Research Division
All right. Good morning, everyone. Welcome to Allegion. This is Tomo Sano, Mid-Cap Industrials at JPMorgan. Today with me, Mike Wagnes, SVP, Chief Financial Officer. Thank you, Mike, for joining us.
And let me start by sharing why Allegion is such a relevant participant this year. Allegion is a global leader in security and access solutions with strong positions in nonresidential and institutional markets and a clear strategy to accelerate growth in electronics and software-enabled solutions supported by iconic brands and robust free cash flow. So with that, Mike, to kick things off, I think it would be helpful to start with an introduction to Allegion, who the company is and what you do and your story, please.

Senior VP & CFO
Thank you. Thank you, Tomo, for hosting us, and thanks, everyone, for joining us today. I got to make sure I talk into the mic. So at Allegion, I’m going to spend a few minutes just kind of going over overview. Tomo did a quick synopsis. I’ll also do a quick overview, and then we’ll just do Q&A.
We’ll start standard traditionary cautionary statements. Just take a look at our 10-Ks and 10-Qs related to disclosures related to non-GAAP and the reconciliations and forward-looking statements.
Allegion, we’re a global provider of security and access solutions. As Tomo said, iconic brands, think about it as Schlage, Von Duprin, LCN. If you’re in your home, happy in the room, probably have a Schlage lock. You go to your child’s school district, you’ll see our products littered throughout that school district. So we are a big player
