All right. Thank you, Daniel. Good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for joining our earnings call. Third quarter 2025 sales revenue for HuaHong Semiconductor reached a record high of $635.2 million in line with guidance, while gross margin stood at 13.5% above guidance. Driven by the recovery in global semiconductor demand and the company's lean management practices, our capacity utilization remained high. Both sales revenue and gross margin showed year-on-year and quarter-on-quarter growth. The enhancements in our core competencies including process technology, R&D, market development, and operation, along with the results of our cost reduction and efficiency improvement initiatives, have gradually become evident. Our overall profitability is improving, laying a solid foundation for long-term sustainable development. Huahong Semiconductor possesses extensive expertise and exceptional management experience in specialty technologies. Facing the rapidly evolving global semiconductor landscape, the company must continuously advance across multiple core dimensions, such as technology capability and the capacity expansion. The acquisition, which is currently progressing smoothly, will further increase our production capacity and diversify our process platform portfolio while creating synergies with our 12-inch production line in Wuxi to strengthen our profitability. Furthermore, the company is actively engaged in strategic capacity planning focusing on technological breakthrough and ecosystem development to continuously enhance our core competitiveness amidst global industry transformation. Now, I would like to hand the call back to our CFO, Mr. Daniel Wang, for his comments. Daniel.
