Thank you, Alex. Good evening, and thank you all for joining us today and your continued interest in red, white, and bloom. I'm excited to share details of a strong third quarter in which we continue to lay building blocks to a solid foundation for our house of premium brands. But before we get into that, I'd like to introduce you first to Chris Ecken, our new CFO, who joined our team in October and is already positively impacting RWV with his financial acumen insight on SOPs, operational efficiencies, et cetera. He comes to us with more than 25 years of executive experience at Brown Foreman, a powerhouse in the spirits industry with world-renowned brands such as Jack Daniels, Woodford Reserve, and Herodure. Chris's rise through the ranks and track record of accomplishments at each level is a testament to his financial acumen, his visionary leadership, and strategic mindset. and will be valuable to RWB in guiding this financial strategy and decisions for each of the company areas as we grow. Thank you to Chris for your guidance and input, and we look forward to more to come. Chris, just so everyone can hear, I want Chris to say hello to everybody and say a few words prior to us getting into some details. Chris?

Thank you, Brad. This is a really exciting time for Red, White & Bloom, and I'm really looking forward to shaping the financial structure of the company. As is typical of startups in their early stages, initially management wears multiple hats until it can build out the team. Fortunately, I've worked across many areas of finance and I'm relishing the challenges of this opportunity. Now, let's dive in and take a look at the many significant accomplishments RWB has in the third quarter and shed a bit of light on where we're heading. Thank you.
