Thanks, Mike, and good afternoon, everyone. On our last earnings call, I shared my enthusiasm for the strategic talent additions we made earlier in the year, strengthening our talent, coupled with improving the foundational components of our P&L, and it was time for us to focus our energy on driving top line growth. I'm pleased to report that the team is tackling this objective aggressively, laying a foundation for sustainable long-term growth.

Let's start by reviewing some highlights from our fiscal second quarter. Last quarter, we delivered $126.1 million of revenue, surpassing the high end of our guidance range and marking a 2.5% increase compared to the same period last year. While our long-term growth ambitions are far greater, it's worth noting that this is our first quarter of year-over-year revenue growth in eight quarters.
