Thank you, Elana, and welcome, everyone, to today's call.

Before we turn to our call today, I would like to address the ongoing war situation in Israel. During these trying times, our thoughts are with the children, parents, husband and wives and grandparents who lost their lives, their loved ones and their homes in the horrific and tragic events of October the 7th. We stand in support of families and communities who were affected by this terrorist attack, and we pray for the safe and immediate return of our people held hostage by Hamas in Gaza. Our priority is assisting our employees in Israel and ensuring their well-being while continuing to meet the needs of our customers, delivering the highest level customer care and maintaining strict operational standards to drive our business forward.
