The second quarter marked another step in returning to the earnings power this company is capable of and has demonstrated in the past. Even with extended maintenance outages in April and May, our second quarter adjusted EBITDA tripled from the Q1 level and Q3 adjusted EBITDA is expected to more than double Q2. As previously foreshadowed, we returned to positive free cash flow during Q2 and have begun reducing our debt, a trend that will continue in a more meaningful way for the foreseeable future.
