Thank you, Amit, and good morning, everyone. We appreciate you joining us today to discuss Fubo's second quarter 2025 results. We are pleased to report that the second quarter represented Fubo's first quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA, an important milestone for our business. This achievement is the result of Fubo's focused execution, our ability to deliver on consumer needs, and our commitment to value and relevance despite a fragmented and friction-filled streaming marketplace. Our global streaming business exceeded both revenue and subscriber expectations in the second quarter. In North America, we delivered total revenue of $371 million, down 3% year over year, and 1,356,000 paid subscribers, down 6.5% year over year. In the rest of the world, we closed the quarter with total revenue of $8.7 million, up 4.7% year over year, and 349,000 paid subscribers, down 12.5% year over year. We have filed a preliminary proxy statement seeking shareholder approval of our agreement with the Walt Disney Company to combine Fubo with Hulu Plus Live TV. As previously stated, we continue to be excited about the potential to increase competition and consumer choice in the pay TV space. The anticipated timeline to close this transaction is currently the fourth quarter of calendar year 2025, or the first quarter of calendar year 2026. Closing remains subject to regulatory approvals, Fubo shareholder approval, and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Fubo has a demonstrated history of fighting for consumer choice, and we continue to focus on super serving customers with flexible content options at appropriate price points. In the coming weeks, we will launch Fubo Sports, a skinny content service for sports fans. We look forward to sharing more details soon. Fubo's recent launch of pay-per-view further underscores our commitment to offering flexible content experiences. This new feature allows both subscribers and non-subscribers to purchase access to premium live events, including boxing, wrestling, and soccer on a one-off basis. By opening the door to a broader audience, pay-per-view not only expands Fubo's reach, but also creates a strategic pathway to convert casual viewers into monthly subscribers. Our strategy to introduce the Fubo experience to new audiences is exemplified by our recent content partnership with DAZN in the US. Through this collaboration, Fubo Sports Network, our free ad-supported streaming TV channel, has expanded its distribution to DAZN's platform, increasing visibility and reach. In turn, Fubo subscribers now enjoy access to a premium content package that includes the DAZN One channel. featuring select exclusive sports rights. Notably, Fubo was first to market with this offering, reinforcing our leadership in sports streaming. At Fubo, we believe premium content must stand alongside product quality and user experience. Our recent launches of personalized features like catch-up to live, game highlights, and timeline markers optimize the live sports viewing experience on Fubo and complement our strategy of delivering the moments that matter, such as scoring plays in addition to full game access. These and other engaging features enable our customers to consume content the way they choose and have driven a steady lift in time spent on Fubo. In closing, the second quarter was a milestone for Fubo marked by our first ever quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA. We continue to focus on delivering a premium sports streaming experience at scale with flexibility and choice for every consumer. We look forward to keeping you updated on our progress. I will now turn the call over to John Giannidis, CFO, to discuss our financial results in greater detail. John.
