Thank you, Donnie, and welcome everyone to our fourth quarter and fiscal year-end 2025 conference call. I'll start with our fourth quarter highlights and observations of what our team achieved in fiscal 25. Ray will then provide a progress update on our go-to-market strategy, and Peter will cover our financial results before opening the call to your questions. In the fourth quarter, our team kept building on the momentum we delivered throughout the year. Net sales grew 23% year-over-year to $22.7 million. Over the past several quarters, I highlighted how our strategic transformation was driving profitable growth and the operating leverage from executing our plan really showed in Q4. Gross profit margin of 37% exceeded our 30% target and adjusted EBITDA was 11.5% of net sales above our stated goal of 10%. We controlled our fixed costs while driving strong sales growth and that execution delivered a significant increase in profitability. As I mentioned, our results steadily accelerated throughout the year. And for the full fiscal year, net sales were $80.6 million, an increase of 24% compared to fiscal 2024. Gross profit margin for the year was 33% compared to 29% in the prior year. And we delivered adjusted EBITDA of $6.1 million, a huge increase compared to $838,000 in adjusted EBITDA in fiscal 2024. From both the top line and bottom line perspective, fiscal 25 felt like a breakout year for RFI. And going forward, our goal is to prove what our operating model is capable of producing. While the general overall environment continues to have its share of uncertainties and increased costs, our team will continue to execute our long-term strategic plan to further transform RFI from a product seller to a technology solutions provider. In fiscal 26, We remain intensely focused on diversifying in markets, driving further customer and market penetration, and launching new products and solutions that we believe will help deliver another year of strong sales growth and profitability. Now I'd like to walk you through how some key initiatives contributed to a successful fiscal 25 and how they set up RFI for future growth and profitability. The baseline story is the difference between being a solutions provider with technologically advanced products and systems versus our historical position as a downstream component supplier. Being a solutions provider, coupled with RFI's reputation and product approvals from key customers, has opened many new channels for growth and has resulted in considerable diversification of both customers and end markets. Ray will go into more detail on trends we're seeing in key end markets, including aerospace, stadiums and venues, and transportation. What I want to point out is that diversification not only expands opportunity, but also mitigates the risk of customer concentration. In the past, there were times when a single customer accounted for a large part of our growth during the fiscal year. While this was good for our top line and is not abnormal in a growth story, we also recognized it could be seen as a vulnerability. Since then, our team has been heavily focused on widening our horizons by innovating our product applications into new end markets and engaging new customers to drive diversification. Now our results are healthier with diversity by product, customer, and market. Three key initiatives are helping our story evolve. First is deepening our relationships with existing customers. We want to partner more closely with our customers. which allow us to add more value and likely gain a larger share of their annual spend. With our high-value proprietary offerings, we can provide tremendous performance and cost benefits to our customers. We've become very adept at partnering with our customers to identify a need and then using a key solution as the tip of the spear to elevate our relationship. Once we began working more collaboratively with the key technical and market resources within our customers on solving their pain points, we saw more opportunities to cross-sell and expand the value proposition of our relationships. Second, leveraging our successes in markets where we have a long history helps us identify needs for similar applications in other new end markets. Once we've proven our value to key current customers, our team has become skilled at aligning with new customers and partners to penetrate new market segments. We believe over time that these new markets and customers will build into healthy contributors to our sustainable growth and profitability. Finally, we're expanding the value proposition we offer to our channel partners. A solid portion of our revenue comes from partners in our distribution channel, and we continue to foster very close relationships with these key companies. As our portfolio of high-value innovative products and solutions grows, our partners' product offerings to their customers are further enhanced. This has resulted in steady recurring sales for RFI. Also, our distribution partners help open the doors to customers we're targeting. Just about every key contractor and integrator buys from distributors, and we appreciate being well aligned with each of those groups. In addition to our key distributors, we also made a strategic decision to partner with certain manufacturers that act as a channel to take us to new customers and markets. As I mentioned on last quarter's call, A major manufacturer of electronic cabinets and enclosures identified our thermal cooling systems as a solution for edge data center installations. And we're starting to see some real traction in these applications. Both of our organizations believe our combined solution addresses the critical role that cooling systems play in the performance and reliability of edge equipment. While still in its early stage, this collaboration can result in a significant new opportunity for us. It's a great example of where a customer sees a problem and comes to RFI for a solution. We look forward to sharing more about these stories in coming quarters. These go-to-market initiatives, along with our continued focus on constant improvement and operational excellence, provided great results in 2025. And we have solid momentum as we enter fiscal year 26. While we expect some of the normal seasonality in Q1, we also expect to accelerate throughout the year in a similar trajectory to fiscal 25. And with what we know today, we anticipate another year of sales growth. As I've noted before, we look at our business opportunity over the long term because results can flex from quarter to quarter depending on when orders are shipped out the door and a small movement of a shipment, even by a day or two, can have a large impact on a single quarter. Our leading indicator is having a strong and diversified pipeline to help fuel top line growth, which in turn can deliver profitability from our operating leverage. Most important, we have a great team that's firing on all cylinders. Their enthusiasm and commitment to maximizing the opportunities ahead is driving RFI forward to our full potential. Now I'll turn the call over to Ray for more detail on the tremendous progress our team has made in executing on our strategic plan.
