Jay? Thank you, Brendan, and welcome, everyone. Thank you for joining us today. Before we start, I would like to take a moment to provide a brief overview of our company. Oxfords Reholdings Limited was founded 10 years ago with a mission to provide reinsurance solutions primarily to property and casualty insurers in the Gulf Coast region of the United States. We are very proud to be celebrating our 10th anniversary this year. Through our licensed reinsurance subsidiary, Oxbridge Reinsurance Limited, and our licensed reinsurance sidecar, Oxbridge ReNS, we write fully collateralized policies to cover property losses from specific catastrophes. And because we write fully collateralized contracts, we believe we can compete effectively with large carriers. We specialize in underwriting low-frequency, high-severity risk where where we believe sufficient data exists to efficiently analyze the risk-return profile of reinsurance contracts. Our objective is to achieve long-term growth in book value per share by writing business on a selective and opportunistic basis that will generate attractive underlying profits relative to risk. As you may recall, in 2021, we launched Oxbridge Acquisition Corp., our special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, focusing on investing in disruptive technologies. Subsequent to your end, Oxbridge Acquisition announced its intention to form a business combination with Jet Token Inc., a private aviation and artificial intelligence company offering fractional artificial ownership, jet cards, aircraft brokerage, and charter services. The transaction is expected to enable Jet to continue its growth strategy of AI software development and its aircraft fleet expansion. We expect the combination will be completed late in the second quarter. Thank you. In March, we continued to diversify our business with the formation of our new subsidiary, Insurance Plus, Inc., by issuing tokens that represent fractional interest in reinsurance contracts. Insurance Plus offers an alternative investment opportunity that leverages key qualities of blockchain technology to create a well-designed digital security. In March, Insurance Plus commenced an offering of $5 million in these tokens, which, assuming no casualty losses to property insurers by the company, are expected to generate a return of up to 196% after three years. I will have more to say about these transactions later in the call. Regarding our investment portfolio, we remain opportunistic and will deploy our capital when favorable return opportunities arise that can contribute to the growth of capital and surplus in our licensed reinsurance subsidiary over time. Clearly, the current volatility Volatility being experienced in the global financial markets is impacting our investment portfolio and our net income. Having said this, we continue to stay in close touch with our markets and the insurance industry to ensure we continue to deliver value to our shareholders. Over the long term, we remain highly opportunistic about the prospects of our core reinsurance business and two new transactions I mentioned earlier. I look forward to keep you appraised of our progress in the quarters to come. I will now turn it over to Rendon to take us through our financial results.
