Thank you, Billy. Hello, everyone, and thank you all for joining us today. The third quarter marked another period of strong execution across our company, including revenue growth continuing and significant progress in our needs and late stage pipelines and business development. Over the next few quarters and years ahead, I have little doubts that will continue to strengthen the company through growth and productivity.
