Thank you Jody and my thanks to all of you for joining us. While we are still in early stages of our commercial launch of Avenova, I am please to report that we’re gaining excellent traction in the market. Sales of Avenova doubled in February, compared with January and sales to-date in March are well outpacing February numbers. Equally exciting is that the growth is coming from both first time orders and from reorders, as ophthalmologist and optometrists are incorporating Avenova into their practices. I'm delighted to report that in the three months since introducing our new business strategy we’re making significant progress. As you may recall, our plan is aimed at driving near-term revenue with ultimate goals of reaching profitability. On today’s call, I will discuss recent development Tom Paulson, our CFO will review financial results, Glenn Moro, our Vice President of Sales and Marketing will provide and update on our commercial activities and then I will share some final comments and will take your questions. As announced on January 7 of this year, following a comprehensive review of our assets, competitive positions, markets and market dynamics, we made the decision to focus NovaBay’s business primarily on the eye care market. We implemented a three-part strategy with the first component being the commercialization of Avenova. This is our proprietary prescription based product for the management of blepharitis, and Meibomian gland dysfunction and associated dry eye syndrome. Our decision to make this a business priority has the full support of our highly respected members of our Ophthalmology and Optometric scientific boards. I want to spend a minute to share my enthusiasm for Avenova and why we believe commercializing this product is the best path to near term revenue growth. Approximately 30 million Americans suffer from blepharitis or dry eye syndrome. These are difficult to treat chronic conditions that can cause irritation, inflammation and itchiness of the eye lid. Alternative treatments for managing blepharitis include antibiotics, steroids and OTC detergent-based lid wipes. The soap in these wipes can counteract the eyes’ natural moisturizing mechanism. All of them are for a minimal relief at best and can further irritate tissue that’s already inflamed. Avenova is the only eye care product to contain our pure proprietary hypochlorous acid, which we call NEUTROX and has no bleach impurity or drying soaps. Hypochlorous acid is a naturally occurring substance produced by white blood cell to fight microbial invaders. Laboratory test shows that it has put potent antimicrobial activity yet it is non-toxic to mammalian cells. And it’s easy to use as patients simply wipe their eye lid area twice daily with this soothing product. Patients with blepharitis and dry eye tend to return time and again to their eye care professional to find better ways of managing their condition. This is a frustrating pattern to patients who cannot obtain relief from their symptoms and to clinicians who are unable to offer an effective treatment to for their patients. After years of suffering, patients are now experiencing relief with Avenova and as little as two weeks. This is a significant market opportunity for NovaBay. We estimate annual market for Avenova in managing blepharitis and dry eye syndrome at $500 million in the U.S. alone. And we are already hearing that some ophthalmologists are expanding its use to cataract and LASIK surgery. We expect continued sales momentum with Avenova as we execute on a well conceived commercial strategy to reach ophthalmologists and optometrists throughout the United States. This plan is under the leadership of Glenn Moro, who has 27 years of experience with Alcon, a leader in Ophthalmology. Glenn will provide an update on commercialization later in the call. The second component of our strategy is to introduce additional innovative eye care product that allows us to leverage our sales force. The next product we expect to launch is Avenova in a form of cream or ointment formulation for overnight management of blepharitis. Subject to FDA clearance, we are making progress developing additional products that are synergistic to Avenova. We believe these products will have exceptional additions to our eye care portfolio. We expect to introduce several of these products in the 12 months to 18 months time period. The third and final component of our strategy is to monetize select assets in neurology, dermatology, wound care, and cosmetic and aesthetic dermatology. We see this as a mean of generating cash if flow, adding new revenue stream and allowing our management team to focus on the eye care opportunity, while also reducing our expenses. We have received preliminary interest in auriclosene or NVC-422 our product to reduce encrustation and blockage indwelling urinary catheter, as well as with our dermatology asset. We will make announcement on these activities when appropriate. I want to make it clear that we remain full committed to our current partnerships with our NeutroPhase products, in wound care this includes, China Pioneer Pharma in China, Shin-Poong Pharma in South Korea and Biopharm Group in the Middle East, as well as our recently signed exclusive distribution agreement with Alpha Pharma for Ukraine. The potential in these markets are significant with an estimated 24 million people suffering from diabetic, ulcer and other chronic wound conditions in China alone, and millions more in Middle-Eastern countries and Ukraine. We also have partnership in animal care with Virbac and dermatology with Galderma. As an update on our agreement with China Pioneer, that firm began promoting NeutroPhase through its extensive network in China early this month. We have received orders for 200,000 units of NeutroPhase and are currently shipping this product. China Pioneer is a major support of our product and our company. In addition to being our distributor, China Pioneer has invested in NovaBay including participating in the financing we completed earlier this month at full market cost and we’re delighted by our strong relationship. As a final comment, we recently signed an exclusive agreement with Sarmedic to market Avenova in Israel. We continue working to seek additional agreements with Avenova in other overseas market. At this time I’d like to turn the call over to Tom Paulson, our CFO.

Thanks Ron. And I’d like to add my welcome to those joining us today. I’ll review our financial results starting with the fourth quarter 2014. We reported sales revenue of $385,000 for the quarter consisting of $219,000 in Avenova product sales and the remainder was primarily NeutroPhase sales through our partner Pioneer, at the end of the year when it began to ship the 200,000 units they ordered and anticipation of our their full scale launch of NeutroPhase throughout Mainland China. Given we launched in the later part of the year we expect that the revenue contribution from Avenova to be modest in 2014. While we are building our commercial organization, training our first group of 15 medical direct sales representatives and preparing to execute on additional outreach activities. That said even without the full launch underway sales for Avenova for the fourth quarter of $219,000 were more than double the $90,000 [ph] we recorded for the third quarter. We are also receiving strong pull-through since the launches with both McKesson in the fourth quarter and Cardinal in quarter one. Glenn will add more details on our distributors, but we are very pleased with the steady raise in Avenova sales from pharmacies supplied by McKesson. In fact we’ve seen a six fold increase in pharmacy orders since we began the agreement just four months ago. Gross profit and total sales revenue is $89,000 with gross profit margins up 23%. However Avenova provides us with pharmaceutical like margin levels and we expect gross profit margins to improve handily as sales of Avenova increased overtime, as well as proportional decreases in sales and promotional material cost that are now needed to support our country wide launch. Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $4.4 million or $0.09 per share on 51.5 million shares outstanding. This compares with the net loss for the fourth quarter of 2013 of $4.1 million or $0.10 per share on 41.2 million shares outstanding. The increase in net loss for 2014 period was due to higher spending on sales and marketing for Avenova launch, offset partially by lower research and development expenses. SG&A expenses were $2.7 million and R&D expenses were $2.4 million. The company expects lower R&D expenses as it shifts into further commercialization of Avenova and other products. Turning to the full year of 2014, we reported sales revenue of $684,000 of which almost half of $329,000 were sales of Avenova. Gross profit on product sales was $198,000. License collaboration distribution and other revenues was $370,000 compared with $3.5 million in 2013. This decrease in 2014 was related to the full amortization of the upfront payments from our agreement with Galderma in 2013, and the end of the full time equivalent funding from the same contract. This was offset partially by increase in sales of NeutroPhase products. Net loss for 2014 was $15.2 million or $0.31 per share, compared with the net loss in 2013 of $16 million or $0.42 per share. R&D expenses in 2014 were $9.5 million and SG&A expenses were $8 million. We reported cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are $5.4 million as of December 1, 2014, also as we announced earlier this month we completed an equity financing or net proceeds to the company of $4.6 million. With those comments, I’d like to turn the call over the Glenn Moro.

Thanks Tom. As Ron discussed we were executed on a well-conceived sales and marketing strategy to promote Avenova to ophthalmologists and optometrists across the U.S. Earlier this year, we hired 20 additional medical representatives, thereby increasing our direct salesforce to 35. Our hiring is benefited from dislocation in the eye care industry, with the several large M&A transactions and we are able to secure reps with more of 10 years of experience in the eye care market and they came at established relationships with optometrists and ophthalmologists. These reps are in the major U.S. metropolitan areas that our extensive market research indicate and have the highest sales potential for Avenova. Key to success for sales will be the frequency of sales calls. So even with the directly relevant past experience, we estimate that it will take approximately eight to ten months for a new rep to reach a breakeven level of sales with upside thereafter. We recently hired a second regional sales manager and our sales organization is [indiscernible] out by four district managers. We are currently are – excuse me – we’re working diligently to improve the product early sales success by replicating tactics that are producing results. We track each sale, each day by market and by sales reps, which allows us to duplicate tactics that work in one market to other markets. As we gain traction, we plan to add reps to our force. When our sales force is fully built out to around 50 reps, we will be able to reach the approximate 20% of the prescribing physicians who produce approximately 80% of the patient volume. Each sales territory will have approximately 200 to 250 eye care specialists, which is a typical territory size for a pharmaceutical rep. About 60% of our current sales are to optometrists and the remaining 40% to ophthalmologists, although we expect that percentage to even out overtime. Avenova is now available to be order through 90% of this 67,000 retail pharmacies through out our nation, while distribution agreements with McKesson Corporation and Cardinal Health. Patients are also able to fill their prescriptions via the Internet from our website at www.avenova.com, as well as the [indiscernible] some optometrists and ophthalmologists who carry Avenova inventory in their offices. As expected, the vast majority of ophthalmologists and optometrists caring Avenova are selling a 30-day supply with $30 to $40. Avenova is a private product and is not reimburse by third party payers. And this price is inline with the patients co-pay on covered prescription for branded pharmaceutical. So though our product is not reimbursed from the patients’ perspective the cash outlay is inline with the reimbursed product. We are gaining awareness of Avenova through our distribution agreement with Vision Source Independent Optometry Network. This is the largest independent optometry network in the U.S., representing 2,800 independent optometrists’ offices. Word of mouth in this position population is among the most powerful tools in gaining acceptance and our marketing collateral features testimonials from highly respected ophthalmologists and optometrists. We placed full-page advertisements in eight of the top trade journals in March. We’re also raising visibility through our presence at 10 industry conference this year such as the American Academy of Ophthalmology, the American Optometric Association and numerous Vision Expo meetings held around in U.S. Additionally, we are holding our own educational and marketing programs. We believe this multi-fascinated approach to sales and marketing is effectively increasing visibility of Avenova within the eye care community. And we are pleased to see early results in the form of increased sales. With those comments, I would like to turn it back to Ron Najafi.

Thank you Glenn. We are firmly committed to the success of NovaBay by executing on our strategy. We also continue to dedicate the modest resources to develop our products with our proprietary Aganocide compound. Aganocide is our fast-acting broad spectrum non-antibiotic anti-microbial that’s effective against multi-drug resistant bacteria and has a good safety profile. Pending FDA clearance we’re targeting commercial product launch in the first quarter of 2016. Before, we open the call to your question I want to assure you that we’re fully aware of the challenges of commercializing a product such as Avenova. This makes the early acceptance of our product that much more [indiscernible] and while we are stealing the early adaptor phase of our launch, the feedback we’re receiving from clinicians and patients are like is highly encouraging. Let me summarize, why we are so excited about the prospects for Avenova. We have a product that works and fails an unmet medical need in a large patient population. We have manufacturing in place with ample capacity to fill product orders. We have an expanded sales organization in covering the major markets, where we see the greatest opportunity. We have the support of highly respected key opinion leaders and we have nationwide distribution through our agreements with McKesson and Cardinal to more than 90% of the nation’s retail pharmacy. Also I wanted to let our investors no that we’re now beginning the practice of holding regular quarterly conference calls to keep you updated on our progress and our financial results and to answer your questions. In closing, we’re highly focused on supporting our commercial operations under the leadership of proven sales on marketing bettering, we plan to leverage our sales organization by introducing new product and we’re seeing opportunities to monetize our assets while continuing to support our established partnerships. With that over view, operator let’s open the call up to question.
