Good day, and thank you for standing by. Welcome to the Solesence First Quarter 2026 Conference Call. Today's call is being recorded. On today's call, we have Kevin Cureton, President and Chief Executive Officer of Solesence; and Laura Riffner, Chief Financial Officer of Solesence.

During this call, management will make statements that include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, which are pursuant to the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This conference call may contain statements that reflect the company's current beliefs and a number of important factors that could cause actual results for future periods to differ materially from those stated on this call. These important factors include, without limitation, a decision of a customer to cancel purchase order or supply agreements, demand for and acceptance of the company's personal care ingredients, advanced materials and formulated products, changes in development and distribution relationships, the impact of competitive products and technology, possible disruption in commercial activities occasioned by public health issues, terrorist activity and armed conflict and other risks indicated in the company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Except as required by federal securities laws, the company undertakes no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements to reflect new events, uncertainties or other contingencies.

I'll now hand the conference over to Kevin Cureton, President and Chief Executive Officer. Please go ahead, sir.
