Thank you for holding and welcome to Alliant Energy's fourth quarter four-year 2025 earnings conference call. At this time, all lines are in a listen-only mode. Today's conference is being recorded. I would like to turn the call over to your host, Susan Gill, Investor Relations Manager at Alliant Energy. Please go ahead.

Good morning. I would like to thank all of you for joining us today for Alliant Energy's fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial results conference call. We appreciate your participation. With me here today are Lisa Barton, President and CEO, Robert Durian, Executive Vice President and CFO. Following prepared remarks by Lisa and Robert, we will have time to take questions from the investment community. We issued a news release last night announcing our fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial results and affirmed 2026 earnings and dividend guidance. This release as well as an earnings presentation will be referenced during today's call and are available on the investor page of our website at www.alliantenergy.com. Before we begin, I need to remind you the remarks we make on this call and our answers to your questions include forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risk that could cause actual results to be materially different. Those risks include, among others, matters discussed in Alliant Energy's news release issued last night and in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We disclaim any obligation to update these forward-looking statements. This presentation contains references to ongoing earnings per share, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. References to ongoing earnings exclude material charges or income that are not normally associated with ongoing operations. The reconciliation between ongoing and GAAP measures is provided in the earnings release, which is available on our website. At this point, I'll turn the call over to Lisa.
