Thank you, Charlie. Good afternoon, and thank you for joining us to review our most recent results. In the third quarter, we once again delivered strong financial results while driving key operational progress. Revenue increased by 26% year over year, and importantly, we maintained improved margins thanks to disciplined cost control and solid project execution. I want to commend our team for their continued focus and high-quality delivery. Our automation systems are also showing tangible results for our customers. Adoption continues to scale and we recently set a record processing over six and a half million cases in a single day through our operational systems. This level of throughput highlights the real value we're delivering to our customers. On the development side, we also made solid progress on our integration of advanced systems and robotics or ASR business. Notably, We've now identified sites for the development of the first prototypes of the next generation solution. Installation is expected to begin early next calendar year, keeping us on track with our roadmap. From a technology standpoint, we're driving innovation across the stack. A key example of this is our teleoperations capability, which enables remote operators to use our bots to reposition misaligned cases that have shifted out of place during inbound processing. Before this capability, these tasks sometimes required manual intervention during scheduled downtime. Recently, we reached an important milestone, our first operational day at a large site with zero manual repositioning. Using machine learning, we are training our bots to automatically replicate these tasks, minimizing both downtime and labor needs. Our goal remains clear, smarter bots equipped with cameras, LIDAR, and advanced GPUs enabling even greater efficiency and value. Finally, on the innovation front, yesterday we announced a major product milestone, the debut of our next generation storage structure. This marks what I believe is one of the most significant product upgrades in our company's history. This new structure substantially increases our already exceptional storage density, allowing customers to store considerably more products in the same space and or reduce their overall storage footprint. A more compact structure also speeds case handling as bots travel shorter distances. Equally important, the new structure introduces pre-assembled precision manufactured subcomponents reducing on-site assembly parts by over 90%. It also features a unique leveling system that minimizes floor preparation. Together, we believe these improvements will accelerate deployment and enhance scalability, thus making the next generation structure a game changer for our business. Additionally, we plan to apply this structure across all aspects of the supply chain, from distribution centers to perishable goods environments, to e-commerce and micro-fulfillment hubs. Customer response to next-generation storage has been very positive. In fact, we began signing projects that include the new storage structure in our fiscal third quarter. We believe this next-gen storage structure supports our path to unlocking even higher margins and long-term value creation. In summary, Symbotic remains well-positioned, our strong and growing product portfolio, spans multiple levels of the supply chain, supported by a $22.4 billion backlog and a healthy balance sheet. Thank you to our team for their outstanding work this quarter and to our customers and shareholders for their continued support. I will now turn it over to Carol, who will discuss the quarterly financials before I come back to introduce Izzy Martins, who is taking over as CFO next week and will provide the forecast. Carol?
