Good morning, and thank you for joining us. Today's call comes at an exciting time for Nauticus Robotics. With the successful acquisition of C-Trepid in March, we've entered a new chapter marked by operational scale. expanding commercial opportunities, and growing demand for our autonomous subsea technologies. Over the next few minutes, you're going to hear from our executive team on our first quarter financials, operational progress, and our emerging pipeline of offshore work, all pointing to a business gaining momentum and maturing rapidly. While Q1 results reflect the seasonal nature of offshore work and the timing of our acquisition, The quarter also marked the beginning of our 2025 offshore season and the formal start of our integration efforts. Early signs are encouraging. We've mobilized equipment, secured extended contracts, and are seeing enthusiastic interest in our Aquanaut platform from both existing and new customers. The conversations have shifted from what if to how soon, and that signals real traction. Now to turn it over to Team Nauticus to explain how we intend to meet the growing demand for safer, smarter, and more sustainable subsea solutions. With that, I'm going to hand it to Vicki, our interim CFO, and let her get us started on the financial side for Q1. Vicki?
