Thank you, Stephen. Welcome to Alpha and Omega's fiscal 2026 Q4 earnings call. I will begin with a high-level overview of our results and then jump into segment details. Thank you for joining us. As anticipated, strength in advanced computing, particularly AI and server applications, and in the communications segment offset softness in the traditional PC market, driven by higher memory costs and in gaming within the consumer segment. Advanced computing continues to be the strongest part of our business and provides clear evidence that our long-term strategy is delivering results. As our portfolio expands into higher performance applications, we are increasing content per platform, broadening customer adoption and strengthening our competitive position in AI infrastructure. To support this opportunity, we continue expanding our medium voltage manufacturing capacity while increasing targeted R&D investments. With that, let me now cover our Q2 segment results and provide more details. Starting with computing. and Yifan Liang. and Yifan Liang. Demand for our medium voltage MOSFET portfolio continues to expand across AI and cloud infrastructure with growing engagement from power supply providers, module makers, leading ODMs, cloud service providers, and hyperscale customers. Customer engagement and design activity continue to expand in these areas and we expect these products to contribute more meaningfully during the second half of 2026 and into 2027. Looking ahead to the September quarter, we expect advanced computing revenue to grow by more than 40% sequentially, driven by continued strength across AI servers, graphics cards, and other high-performance computing platforms. Our AI and server business alone is expected to increase more than 60% sequentially and represent the majority of our advanced computing business. This growth is expected to more than offset the well publicized weakness in traditional PC applications caused by memory chip constraints, resulting in flattish sequential growth for the overall computing segment. Thank you for watching. Turning to the consumer segment, June quarter revenue was down 21.3% year-over-year and up 8% sequentially and represented 12.3% of total revenue. The sequential results were better than our expectations for a relatively flattish quarter with broad-based quarter-on-quarter growth across gaming, wearables, and home appliances. The year-over-year decline primarily reflects lower game revenue as the current console product cycle nears maturity. For the September quarter, we expect consumer segment revenue to decline approximately 25% sequentially, primarily reflecting lower revenue in home appliances, wearables, and gaming. Next, let's discuss the communications segment. June quarter revenue was up 22.3% year-over-year and down 2.3% sequentially and represented 19.3% of total revenue. The results were in line with our expectations for a slight sequential decline as seasonally lower battery PCM shipments ahead of new smartphone model transitions were largely offset by strong growth in DCDC modules and networking applications. For the September quarter, we are ramping new products with our Tier 1 US smartphone customer, and we continue to benefit from our strong position in premium smartphone platforms, where our differentiated battery protection solutions and support for higher charging currents are increasing bomb content and driving greater value per device. Outside of the premium tier, market conditions remain more challenging as elevated memory pricing and supply constraints are pushing some OEMs toward lower performance components in certain platforms. We remain disciplined in managing our product mix, prioritizing higher performance sockets and premium smartphone platforms where our technology and content opportunities are greatest. As a result, we expect communication segment revenue to increase approximately 10% sequentially. and Yifan Liang. and Yifan Liang. Thank you very much. In closing, we are encouraged by the continued progress of our strategic transformation, even as conditions remain uneven across several end markets. Advanced computing is now a clear and growing contributor to both revenue and earnings, reinforcing the long-term direction of the business. That mixed shift, combined with an improving pricing environment, is expected to support higher gross margins in the second half of calendar 2026. demonstrating the benefits of the strategic investments we have made over the past several years. Despite ongoing pressure on the broader PC and smartphone markets from elevated memory pricing and supply constraints, we believe our computing and communications businesses are outperforming their respective end markets, supported by our expanding advanced computing portfolio, total solution strategy, and disciplined focus on premium smartphone platforms with our Tier 1 US customer. We are expanding manufacturing capacity in key product areas, increasing targeted R&D investments for next generation AI infrastructure, and building a growing pipeline of new products across AI-related workloads. We believe this combination, a broader product portfolio, increasing content per platform, and continued investment in technology positions AOS to deliver stronger, more profitable, and more sustainable long-term growth. Thank you for joining us. With that, I will now turn the call over to Yifan for a discussion of our fiscal fourth quarter financial results and our outlook for the next quarter. Yifan?
