Q2 2025 is our highest revenue quarter in company history. Net sales reached 4.1 million, representing 114% year-over-year growth compared to 1.92 million in Q2 of 2024, and an 83% sequential increase from Q1 of 2025. This growth was driven by the continued ramp-up of our flagship AL4 premium tonneau cover, expanding dealer adoption order frequency, and sustained strength in e-commerce sales across our direct-to-consumer channels. Gross profit for the quarter rose 173% to $1.08 million compared to $396,000 in Q1 of 2025. Gross margin improved under 800 basis points to 26.4%, up from 17.7% in Q1 and 15.4% in Q2 of last year, marking our third consecutive quarter of margin expansion This sustained improvement reflects continued operational efficiencies and a favorable mix of new B2B and B2C sales. Operating expenses were $4.7 million, up modestly from Q2 of 2024 as $4.21 million, but essentially flat compared to Q1's $4.65 million, despite significantly higher revenues. Within the operating expenses, sales and marketing increased to $1.31 million, supporting dealer growth and digital marketing campaigns. General and admin declined to $2.45 million from $2.99 million in Q1 of 2025, showing early results from cost discipline. We know this occurred while production went up nearly 100%. Our belief is that the G&A of the company will not increase proportionally with exponential revenue growth. R&D was down $300,000, down significantly year over year due to prior year development peaks. Our operating loss improved to 3.62 million for Q1 versus 4.26 million in Q1 and 3.91 million in Q2 of last year. Net loss for Q2 narrowed to 3.73 million from 4.46 million in Q1 of 2025. We remain committed to achieving our near-term operational cash flow positivity. While the tunnel cover division is currently our sole revenue generating unit, we believe it can sustain the broader corporate structure, including R&D for Core and Solis, the EtherLux product line, and general corporate expenses. This outlook is further supported by our expectation that Core and Solis will transition from R&D expenses to revenue generating products later this year. Since we believe that general corporate expenses will not increase proportional to business growth and profitability, a true path to cash flow positivity in the near term is possible. Cash and cash equivalents ended the quarter at $1.39 million compared to $5.08 million on March 31, 2025. However, at the end of Q2, $4.6 million was the available borrowing capacity on our credit facility. Operating cash usage in Q2 was approximately $3.1 million. 19% improvement from Q1's $3.84 million cash outflow. Accounts receivable increased in line with higher dealer sales volumes, while inventory remained stable at $5.88 million, approximately 90% in raw materials and 10% in finished goods. In Q1, inventory stood at $5.7 million, with a 60-40 split between raw materials and finished goods. Reduced finished goods share reflects demand consistently outpacing production. Later in this report, we will outline the steps being taken to expand production capacity to meet this growth. We're happy to share these steps have been successful thus far. Our inventory profile positions us to fulfill ongoing dealer and e-commerce demand without requiring significant near-term investment. Our long-term debt excluding amounts repayable in the next 12 months declined to $2.09 million, compared to $4.78 million as of December 31, 2024, and $2.7 million as of March 31, 2025. Of special note, on August 1, 2025, the company submitted a $3 million purchase order and placed a deposit with an established manufacturing equipment supplier for additional machinery with delivery currently as early as Q1 of 2026. at the company's discretion. This will occur with extremely favorable financing terms with the manufacturer. It's not expected to place a cash flow concern to the business. This additional equipment is expected to meaningfully increase production capacity at the company's West Seneca, New York manufacturing facility, enabling the company to meet anticipated customer demand more efficiently, improve operational throughput, and support future revenue growth. However, management emphasizes that expects that workforce, current equipment, and supply chain can allow the company to generate positive cash flows from operations. Now back to Stephen for key insights on business operations.
