Thank you, Christy, and good morning, everyone. Turning to the 2025 Highlights. I first want to recognize our teams for their continued focus on safety and operational discipline, which drove further improvement in our safety performance during the year. Our 12-month rolling total reportable incident rate of 0.40 incidents per 200,000 work hours as of December 31st, 2025, was a record low, and three of our four sites operated injury-free for the full year, quite an accomplishment. That represents a meaningful improvement over 2024, and we're proud of the progress our teams have made. We delivered significant year-over-year growth in net sales, adjusted EBITDA, and EPS in both the fourth quarter and the full year of 2025. Our strategies to improve our operational performance combined with disciplined commercial execution yielded strong financial results. The operational progress we achieved during the year enabled us to fully capitalize on favorable pricing momentum across our key products. We delivered record nitric acid and ammonium nitrate solution production in 2025, reflecting the progress we've made in plant reliability, throughput, and operational efficiency. We believe this positions us well going forward, and we are ready to take advantage of current favorable market conditions. While we have been able to capture value With the operational and commercial improvements we've made, there remains significant value to capture, and we have ongoing initiatives intended to do just that. Cheryl will provide more color on that later in the call. Lastly, we are making good progress on our CCS project at our El Dorado site, and we feel good about meeting our projected timeline. I will provide an update later on the call. Now I'll turn the call over to Damian to provide more detail on the commercial environment
