Good morning, everyone. And thank you for joining us today for the Byline Bancorp second quarter 2026 earnings call. In accordance with the Regulation FD, this call is being recorded and is available via webcast on our investor relations website along with our earnings release in the corresponding presentation slides. As part of today's call, management may make certain statements that constitute projections, beliefs, or other forward-looking statements regarding future events or the future financial performance of the company. We caution that such statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed. The company's risk factors are disclosed and discussed in its SEC filings. In addition, our remarks and slides may reference or contain certain non-GAAP financial measures, which are intended to supplement but not substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the comparable GAAP financial measure can be found within the appendix of the earnings release. For additional information about risks and uncertainties, please see the forward-looking statement and non-GAAP financial measures disclosures in the earnings release. As a reminder for investors, during the quarter, we plan to participate in two upcoming conferences, the Raymond James Bank Conference here in Chicago on September 9th and the Stevens Bank Forum in Little Rock in September. With that, I will now turn the conference call over to Alberto Paracchini, president of Byline Bancorp.

Great, Brooks, and good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us to go over our second quarter results. With me today, as usual, is our chairman and CEO, Roberto Herencia, our CFO, Tom Bell, and our chief credit officer, Mark Fusinato. In terms of the agenda for today, I'll kick us off with the highlights for the quarter, followed by Tom, who'll take you through our financial results. I'll come back to wrap up before we open the call for questions. As always, you can find the deck for this morning on the IR section of our website. So please refer to the disclaimer at the front. Before we get started, I'd like to pass the call over to Roberto for his comments. Roberto.
