Thanks, Blake. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining. Getting down to business, today we're going to cover our financial results for the second quarter, updated guidance for the full year of 2026, and some recent developments in our innovation pipeline. Starting with a brief overview of our Q2 performance, we delivered $32 million in net sales, which grew approximately 38% year over year. Q2 revenue growth was driven predominantly by growth in new patient starts, as well as our growing installed base of users who continued to access their monthly supplies to the islet through the pharmacy channel and who we continue to retain at a high level. The percentage of new patient starts that were reimbursed through the pharmacy channel was a high 30s percentage, similar to the prior quarter. Our gross margin was 59%, expanding 524 basis points year over year. Before I hand the call to Stephen, I want to highlight a very important update for Q2. We published our real-world data on our company website, and it's publicly available for all to see. This data is refreshed continuously and openly in near real-time, without filters or fine print. If an islet user has a provider-reported baseline A1C and at least two weeks of data uploaded to our cloud, they are represented on that dashboard. No exclusions applied. Too often in our industry, it has become the norm to publish real-world data that doesn't show the whole picture. Selected populations, optimized settings, No Baseline Comparators, Short Time Periods, Strict Exclusion Criteria. These are all ways that real-world data in our industry has become disconnected from the real-world experience and unrepresentative of population health statistics. I don't want that point to be missed. Any dataset can be subsegmented to show how well a system worked in a narrow set of users, and then marketed as what that system is capable of. Betabionics believes that all people with diabetes deserve great clinical outcomes with minimal work required. So we're setting a new standard in data transparency. The data you see isn't what our system is capable of in a narrow set of users. The data you see is what our system, in fact, does across our broad population. We believe that this is the right way to share real-world data because we're making it easier for healthcare providers, people with diabetes, Payers, investors, and anyone else who's interested to evaluate our outcomes with confidence. We have received very positive feedback on the dashboard, and we view that feedback as a reflection of the positive experience that the island is delivering on the market today. With that, I'll hand the call over to Stephen to provide some additional detail on our second quarter performance and our full year 2026 guidance. Stephen?
