Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and thank you for joining us today. Welcome to the ARENA Group's third quarter 2025 earnings conference call. I would now like to turn the conference over to Morgan Fitzgerald, Investor Relations and Social Media. Ms. Fitzgerald, you may begin your conference.

Thank you. Hosting the call today are Paul Edmondson, Chief Executive Officer, and Jeffrey Waite, Principal Financial Officer. Before we begin, I'd like to note that some of the comments made during this presentation may include forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance and include, without limitation, statements concerning the company's business strategy, future revenues, market growth, capital requirements, product introductions, and expansion plans, and the adequacy of the company's funding. The company cautions investors that any forward-looking statements made in this presentation or that the company may make orally or in writing from time to time are based on the beliefs of, assumptions made by, and information currently available to the company. Such statements are based on assumptions, and the actual outcomes will be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties, and factors that are beyond the company's control or ability to predict. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on forward-looking statements, which are based only on known results and trends at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends. Certain risks are discussed in the company's filings with the SEC. The company disclaims any intention or obligation, except as required by law, to update or revise any financial projections or forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events, or otherwise. In addition, reference will be made to the non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA information regarding reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the closest GAAP measure can be found in the press release that was issued this afternoon on our Investor Relations website at investors.thearenagroup.net. With that, I'd like to turn the call over to CEO Paul Edmondson. Paul, the call is yours.

Paul Edmondson
Chief Executive Officer

Thank you, Morgan, and thank you, everyone, for joining us here today. Q3 was another profitable quarter for the Arena Group, one that we believe highlights the strength of our model, the discipline of our operations, and the resilience of our business amid ongoing industry-wide traffic headwinds. As a result, we delivered margins that surpass industry averages. However, before we dive deeper, I want to acknowledge that this is the ARENA Group's first earnings call in nearly two years. We've heard from shareholders that they value this form of communication, and we've listened. Going forward, we intend to continue these calls and combine them with additional channels, including video, social, and other platforms to share our story with even a broader investor base. The Arena Group has undergone quite the transformation in a relatively short period of time, transforming our operations, strengthening leadership, stabilizing our balance sheet, and sharpening our strategic focus. We're confident and eager to engage directly with the investment community to communicate our progress with transparency and consistency. With that, I'd like to turn the call over to our principal financial officer, Jeff Waite, to discuss our financial results.
