Thanks, Brent, and thank you, everyone, for joining today's call. We reported revenue of $28.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, and our non-GAAP EPS was $0.03. Both metrics were well within our quarterly guidance range. Brent Stringham, our CFO, will be providing more details on the third quarter financial results shortly. On the call today, I would like to cover four topics with you. First, I will speak briefly to the current operating environment and how we've moved quickly with our own task force on tariffs while remaining focused on executing our business and controlling costs. Second, I'd like to talk about how we are expanding our distribution network in the European Union and Asia Pacific. Third, I would like to highlight some recent customer wins and mention products we've launched. Lastly, I want to highlight our solid operational execution and strengthening financial position, which Brent will speak to in more detail in his prepared remarks. So first off, we're carefully monitoring the current operating environment, and we are working very closely with our customers, suppliers, and contract manufacturers. In anticipation of the tariffs, we established an internal task force to identify our top priorities and devised a 90-day action plan. We are currently implementing this plan and closely managing expenses due to the uncertainty surrounding tariffs and any disruptions to the supply chain. Regarding pricing, we are working on a customer-by-customer basis with goal of minimizing the impact of landtronics. And we are in discussion with our largest partners and contract manufacturers to manage and reduce cost. In this operating environment, we will continue to analyze, adjust, and execute our action plan. Second, regarding our effort to grow our channel distribution, We announced this past quarter that we are expanding our partnership with TD Cynics, our major distributor in North America. They are now distributing throughout Europe, focused on out-of-band management, network infrastructure, and industrial IoT solutions, bringing expanded support to our customers and partners in the European Union. And we are also leveraging the acquired channel network from Netcom, to expand the distribution in Asia Pacific, Australia, and New Zealand. Overall, the integration of Netcom products into our business has gone very well, and I'm pleased with the level of customer engagement and new cross-selling opportunities that we are seeing. Third, regarding new customer wins, we recently announced a new AI-powered Camelot solution that uses our high-performance system and module paired with thermal infrared camera module from Teledyne FLIR. In this solution, our OpenCUE system and module provides advanced processing for AI-driven situational awareness, advanced thermal imaging, and real-time decision-making. This integration accelerates the next-gen AI camera solutions for drones, surveillance, and robotics. I'm also pleased that we announced our latest system and module using Qualcomm's Dragon Wing 8550 processor that's uniquely designed for higher AI and ML applications, such as video transcoding, camera applications, and edge gateway integration. As I've said previously, we are very focused on edge AI solutions because of the benefits of low latency, better security, and low power requirements at the edge of the network. And we are seeing more customers moving to hybrid architectures that are leveraging both cloud computing for heavy computational processing, as well as edge computing for intelligent real-time inferencing. And finally, we continue to manage our cost structure tightly, and I'm pleased to report our cash position increased sequentially in fiscal Q3 compared to the prior quarter, We also took the prudent step to pay down some debt, helping us reduce our interest expense. Brent will be covering that in more detail in his script. Brent, over to you.
