being recorded. I will now turn it over to Ms. Amy Mendenhall, Vice President, Treasury and Investor Relations. Please go ahead.

Good morning. I'm pleased to be here today with Judy McReynolds, our Chairman and CEO, Seth Runzer, our CEO-elect and President, and Matt Beasley, our Chief Financial Officer. Other members of our Executive Leadership Team will also be available during the Q&A sessions. Before we begin, please note that some of the comments we make today will be forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, which are detailed in the forward-looking statement section of our earnings release and SEC filing. To provide meaningful comparisons, we'll also discuss certain non-GAAP financial measures that are outlined and described in the tables of our earnings release. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures are provided in the additional information section of the presentation slides. You can access the conference call slide deck on our website at arcb.com and our 8-K filed earlier this morning or follow along on the webcast. And now, I will turn the call over to Judy.

Thank you, Amy, and good morning, everyone. ARCBEST is well positioned to navigate any environment. guided by a long-term strategy built on three pillars, growth, efficiency, and innovation. At the heart of our approach is a deep understanding of our customers. Delivering for them drives our success and enables us to achieve our financial objectives. Years ago, we recognized that supply chains were becoming more complex, and we took proactive steps to prepare ArcVest for that future. Today, we deliver flexible, efficient, and fully integrated solutions designed to meet our customers' evolving needs. By listening closely and solving real-world challenges, our teams position ArcBest as a trusted strategic partner, helping customers succeed not just today, but for the long term. In late September, we hosted our Investor Day in New York City, and we appreciate everyone who joined us. both in person and virtually. During the event, we shared our best strategic vision, showcased key initiatives, and introduced long-term financial targets that underscore our disciplined, growth-focused approach. As we execute on our strategy, we are supported by a strong and experienced board of directors whose expertise spans transportation and logistics, finance and capital markets, and digital transformation. In that spirit, we are pleased to welcome Chris Sottelmeyer to the ARC Best Board. Chris brings more than 30 years of leadership in logistics, transportation, and supply chain operations. His deep industry knowledge will be a tremendous asset as we advance our long-term goals. I also want to take a moment to recognize Dr. Craig Phillips, who will retire from the board in January after many years of dedicated service. Craig's insights and guidance have been instrumental to our best success, and we are deeply grateful for his significant contributions. Today's call is especially meaningful for me because it is my final earnings call as CEO. It has been an incredible honor to lead this organization. Over the last 15 years, I've had the privilege of working alongside some of the most talented and dedicated professionals in the industry. Together, we've embraced change, driven innovation, and built a company that is truly unique and differentiated. I am deeply proud of what we've accomplished and equally excited about what lies ahead. Seth Runzer's transition to CEO has been carefully planned And the board and I have complete confidence in Seth's ability to lead ArcBest into its next chapter. I've worked closely with Seth for many years. He knows ArcBest inside and out, has a clear strategic vision, and demonstrates a genuine commitment to our people and customers. I know he will lead ArcBest with integrity, purpose, and passion. I will always cherish my time as CEO, and I have no doubt that the best is yet to come. ARCBEST is built to deliver, and I look forward to watching this company continue to grow and thrive, both as chairman of the board and as a committed long-term shareholder. With that, I'll turn the call over to ARCBEST CEO-elect and president, Seth Runzer.
