Hello, everybody, and thank you for joining us for our third quarter earning call. With me today is Alessio Artuffo, our president and COO, and Sukaran Mehta, our CFO. Docebo continues to execute well in an environment that is increasingly impacted by macroeconomic headwinds. Even in the face of those challenges, we delivered strong revenue growth and free cash flow. We are especially pleased to report the positive adjusted BDA that was ahead of schedule and surpassed consensus estimates. Adjusted for foreign exchange, we delivered an year-over-year growth in ARR of 44%. Consistent with what we saw last quarter, this cycle elongated in certain segments as global macroeconomic issues weighted on decision making. Grow remains a top priority for Decebo. What is also important for us is to continue to demonstrate operating leverage and drive profitability as a mean of unlocking value for our shareholders. This is consistent with Decebo's long-term journey, which is best characterized as one of balanced growth complemented by our strong balance sheet, world-class capital efficiency, and the large under-penetrated Total Addressable Market. While our competitors continue to offer legacy solutions within efficient businesses that are now in consolidation mode, we have a first-mover advantage that is driving organic growth and redefining how customers choose to implement Docebo's modern architecture. We see this as a time to push our strong competitive position in a disciplined patient. And we are concentrating on a few key areas as follows. One, lead by innovation and showcase how our solution address the need of the customer specific use case to achieve their business outcome. We are doing this quite effectively in areas such as customer education, franchisee, and quick service restaurant. double down on our enterprise segment where we continue to see large greenfield and external use case opportunities ahead. And finally, doing strategic and responsible hiring necessary to drive long-term growth objective in both R&D and phaser marketing.

And with Nina Simonsko and Ryan Brock, taking on senior leadership roles in sales and marketing, I am delighted to announce that we have expanded Alessio's role as our President's Chief Operating Officer. He will work even more closely with me to drive the operational efficiency and revenue growth necessary for the Chamber to achieve his ambitions. We also extend our thanks and appreciation to Rudi Valdez for his contribution and wish him well in his future pursuits. In closing, I want to emphasize that we remain growth-focused.
