Thank you, Sylvia, and good morning, everyone. This is Fran Okoneski, Vice President of Investor Relations for NAPCO Security Technologies. Thank you all for joining today's conference call to discuss financial results for our fiscal second quarter 2026. By now, all of you should have had the opportunity to review our earnings press release discussing our quarterly results.

On the call today are Dick Soloway, Chairman and CEO of NAPCO Security Technologies, and Kevin Buchel, President and Chief Operating Officer, as well as Andrew Vono, our Chief Financial Officer. Before we begin, let me take a moment to read the forward-looking statement, as this presentation contains forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections of future performance based on management's judgment, beliefs, current trends, and anticipated product performance. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements relating to growth drivers of the company's business, such as school security products, recurring revenue services, potential market opportunities, the benefits of our reoccurring revenue products to customers and dealers, our ability to control expenses and costs, and expected annual run rate for our SAS reoccurring monthly revenue. Forward-looking statements invoke risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These factors include but are not limited to such risk factors described in our SEC filings, including our annual report on Form 10-K. Other unknown or unpredictable factors or underlying assumptions subsequently proved to be incorrect could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results level of activity, performance, or achievements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. All information provided in today's press release and this conference call are as of today's date unless otherwise stated, and we undertake no duty to update such information except as required under applicable law.

With that out of the way, let me turn the call over to Dick Soloway, Chairman and CEO of NAPCO Security Technologies. Dick, the floor is yours. Thank you, Fran.
Good morning, everyone, and welcome to our conference call. We appreciate you joining us as we review our fiscal second quarter 2026 performance. Our second quarter results, which reflect record Q2 revenue, is a continuation of the momentum we reported from Q1 and is evidence of our focus on long-term growth. Our strong financial results continue to be fueled by our recurring revenue model, which delivers steady growth while maintaining its substantial profitability. Our equipment revenue has shown consistent growth as our pricing and market strategies have yielded double-digit increases in equipment revenue for consecutive quarters bolstered by our Milwaukee segment, as well as double-digit growth in our intrusion and alarm segment. The first half of fiscal 2026 delivered strong financial results, and we are confident in our ability to continue the momentum through the end of the fiscal 2026 and to execute on our plan to provide enhanced shareholder value and growth. In addition to our financial performance, we are pleased with the recent addition of our Chief Revenue Officer, Joe Popinski. With his 35-plus years as a business development executive, he will provide the company with strong leadership, vision, and the ability to help NAPCO achieve even stronger revenue growth. Now I'll turn the call over to our President and Chief Operating Officer, Kevin Buchel, who will comment on some operational and financial performance highlights. Following Kevin's remarks, our CFO, Andy Bono, will go through the financials in more detail, and then I will return to delve deeper into our strategies and market outlook. Kevin, the floor is yours.
