Good morning, and welcome to the 2026 Annual Stockholders Meeting of Southland Holdings, Inc. I am Frank Renda, Southland's Interim Chairman of the Board, President, and CEO. Thank you for joining us today. Today, we have stockholders attending via the web portal and the 800 number that we have provided. As is our custom, we will conduct the business portion of our meeting first and will then answer questions at the end of the meeting that we received in advance or through the virtual meeting platform. We will review and consider all questions received and will address any unanswered questions in compliance with this meeting's code of conduct on our corporate website shortly after the meeting. In keeping with the digital approach to this year's meeting, it is now approximately 9:30 A.M. Central Daylight Time on June 10th, 2026, and this meeting is officially called to order. Now I would like to introduce the other members of the board. Rudy Renda has served as one of our directors since March 2025. He is currently Executive Vice President and Co-Chief Operating Officer of Southland. Tim Winn has served as one of our directors since February 2023. He is currently Executive Vice President and Co-Chief Operating Officer of Southland. Tan Parker has served as one of our directors since May of 2025. Izilda Martins has served as one of our directors since February 2023. Gregory Monahan has served as one of our Directors since November 2021. Mario Ramirez has served as one of our directors since February 2023. Now it is my pleasure to introduce Southland's Corporate Secretary. Keith Bassano will act as Secretary of the meeting. I will turn to him with any procedural issues that may arise. Thanks, Frank. We are also joined here today by our independent auditors. They will be available during the question and answer session after the meeting to respond to appropriate questions. Finally, the company has appointed Christopher J. Woods of American Election Services, LLC, to act as Inspector of Elections at the meeting. Mr. Woods has previously signed his customary oath of office, which will be filed with the minutes of this meeting. After the formal meeting has been adjourned, we will provide time for general questions. Only validated stockholders may ask questions in the designated field on the web portal. Out of consideration for others, please limit yourself to one question. Please note that this meeting is being recorded. However, no one attending via the webcast or telephone is permitted to use any audio recording device. The Board of Directors fixed April 16th, 2026, as the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote at this meeting. An affidavit has been delivered attesting to the fact that either a notice of internet availability of the notice of the meeting, the proxy statement, and the 2025 Annual Report to Stockholders or the documents themselves were mailed on or about May 1st, 2026, to all stockholders as of the record date and will be incorporated into the minutes of this meeting. The stockholder list shows that as of the record date, there were 54,218,882 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at this meeting. We are informed by the Inspector of Elections that a majority of the voting power of all issued and outstanding stock entitled to vote on the record date, a quorum, is present for purposes of transacting business. Now, I will present the matters to be voted upon. Please note that we will give stockholders an opportunity to comment on the proposals themselves after all proposals have been presented. Proposal 1 is to elect the directors of the company for a term set to expire at the 2027 annual meeting, and until his or her successor is elected and qualified, or he or she resigns, or until his or her death, retirement, or removal. Proposal 2 is to ratify the appointment by the Audit Committee of Grant Thornton LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31st, 2026. If any stockholder would like to make a comment regarding any of the proposals, please submit your comment through the web portal. The polls are now open. Any stockholder who hasn't yet voted or wishes to change their vote may do so by clicking on the voting button on the web portal and following the instructions there. Stockholders who have sent in proxies or voted via telephone or internet and do not want to change their vote do not need to take any further action. Now that everyone has had the opportunity to vote, I now declare the polls for the 2026 Annual Stockholder Meeting closed. We have been informed by the Inspector of Elections that the preliminary vote report shows that the nominees for the election of the board have been duly elected with terms expiring at the 2027 annual meeting and the appointment of the company's independent auditors has been ratified. We will be reporting the final vote results in a Form 8-K to be filed within four business days. With that, I turn the meeting over to Frank Renda, our Interim Chairman of the Board. Thank you, Keith Bassano. There being no further business to come before the meeting, the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Southland Holdings, Inc. is now adjourned. I will pause to review if we have received any questions that we will be answering. We will address any unanswered questions in compliance with this meeting's code of conduct on our corporate website shortly after the meeting. I would like to thank all of our shareholders for your support of Southland. This concludes today's meeting. Thank you for joining. You may now disconnect.
