Thank you, Lauren. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining us to review ICF's first quarter 2026 performance. With us today from ICF are John Wasson, Chair and CEO; Anne Choate, President; and James Morgan, Chief Operating and Financial Officer. During this conference call, we will make forward-looking statements to assist you in understanding ICF management's expectations about our future performance.

These statements are subject to a number of risks that could cause actual events and results to differ materially, and I refer you to our May 7, 2026, press release and our SEC filings for discussions of those risks. In addition, our statements during this call are based on our views as of today. We anticipate that future developments will cause our views to change. Please consider the information presented in that light.

We may, at some point, elect to update the forward-looking statements made today, but specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. I will now turn the call over to ICF's CEO, John Wasson, to discuss first
