As noted in the notice and proxy statements previously provided to you, the record date for voting at this meeting was the close of business on April 6th, 2026. A list of stockholders on the record date is available for your review. The Secretary has delivered an affidavit of mailing to show that notice of this meeting was given. Copies of the notice and the affidavit will be incorporated into the minutes of the meeting. The Secretary will now report on the existence of a quorum for the meeting. The Inspector of Elections has confirmed that a quorum is present. Thank you. As a quorum is present, this meeting is duly convened, and we may proceed with the business properly before us. The next order of business is the consideration of the matters properly brought before this meeting. These proposals have been duly submitted and are outlined in the agenda, as well as in the proxy materials previously distributed to you. The first proposal is the election of directors. Two directors are to be elected today. The two nominees receiving the highest number of votes of shares present in person or by proxy at this meeting will be elected as directors. Directors elected today will hold office until the 2029 annual meeting of stockholders or until their successors are elected who qualify. The nominees, as listed in your proxy materials and on the agenda, are current directors Josef Parvizi and Rebecca Robertson. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has nominated these two individuals. The board recommends that you vote for their election. In accordance with the advance notice provision in the company's bylaws, nominations are now closed. The second proposal is the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31st, 2026. The board recommends that you vote for the ratification of PwC. As there is no further business on the agenda, we will move on to voting. If you have already submitted your proxy card, your shares will be voted accordingly, and you do not need to vote on the web portal unless you would like to revoke or change your vote. I now declare the polls open for each matter to be voted on today, June 2nd, 2026. I declare the polls now closed. The Inspector of Elections will tabulate the ballots. Will the Secretary please report the results of voting? The Inspector of Elections has informed us that the ballots have been tabulated. For Proposal One, Josef Parvizi and Rebecca Robertson have been duly elected as the company's directors. For Proposal Two, PricewaterhouseCoopers has been ratified as the company's independent registered public accounting firm for 2026. That concludes the official business on the agenda. As there is no further business to come before the meeting, I declare this meeting adjourned. We will now proceed with the informal Q&A portion of the meeting.
