Thank you, Rick, and good morning, everyone. We appreciate you joining us on the call this morning. With me today are several members of our senior management team, including Davis Ravenous, our President and Chief Financial Officer, Matt Daley, our Chief Operating Officer, and Blaine Rheinsberger, our Controller. We are pleased to report solid results for the second quarter with strong cash flow, continued debt pay down, and lower cash G&A costs per BOE. Our rig count remains robust and our market share of overall U.S. land rigs actively drilling increased by 1% to 17%. In addition, While the overall U.S. land rig count dropped by 7% quarter over quarter as operators, primarily in the Permian, slow drilling activity, our overall rig count dropped by only 2% to 88 rigs actively drilling at our acreage. In the Permian Basin, our rig count actually increased by four rigs and Haynesville increased by five rigs, while the MidCon experienced a decline in drilling activity. Net ducts increased by 9% quarter-over-quarter, led by the Permian Basin, which bodes well for near-term production contributions from this region. Finally, cash G&A per BOE came in below the low end of guidance, reflecting operator discipline and positive operating leverage. Today, we announced a 38-cent distribution per common unit as we continue to focus on returning value to unit holders. We remain encouraged by the opportunities we see in 2025 and beyond to continue to grow and expand our industry-leading portfolio of assets to generate long-term unit holder value. And now I'll turn the call over to Davis.
