Thank you for joining us for our 4th quarter 2025 earnings call. Let me preface my comments by saying how proud I continue to be of our Spok team and our ability to end the year strong and regain the positive momentum we saw in the first half of 2025. We accomplished this while staying true to our mission, and I'm very excited by our prospects and outlook. Since the strategic pivot we announced about four years ago now, our focus has not changed. That is, to grow our software revenue, generate cash, and return capital to our stockholders. In 2025, for the 4th consecutive year, we achieved that goal. We returned $27.3 million of cash to our stockholders while generating $29 million of adjusted EBITDA. We were also successful in our stated goal of growing software revenue and managing anticipated wireless declines. Coupled with a continued focus on expense management, Spok generated $15.9 million, or $0.75 per diluted share of net income for the full year of 2025, and we accomplished this while responsibly investing in our product and service offerings. Spok has struck an excellent balance between making the necessary investments to fuel future growth while continuing to generate cash flow and returning capital to our stockholders. Today, we'll share with you an update on how our strategic business plan is progressing in support of our goals, as well as our financial results for the fourth quarter and full year. I'll start by reviewing the agenda for today's call. The order will be as follows: First, we will review our strategic focus and goals. Mike Wallace, our COO, will provide a review of our sales performance. Calvin Rice, our CFO, will review our fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial highlights, as well as a more detailed look at our financial expectations for 2026, and I'll then conclude our prepared remarks with the brief wrap-up. We'll open the call up to your questions. In 2025, our team achieved significant accomplishments regarding software revenue growth, particularly in our professional services business, and specifically as it relates to our managed services offering, managing wireless net churn and related revenue declines, maintaining solid profitability levels, continued expense management, maximizing cash flow generation, progress on our roadmap and development efforts, augmenting our sales team, generating six and seven-figure customer contracts and multiyear engagements, GenA pager replacements, maintenance contract bookings and retention, and enhancing our industry reputation with continued leadership recognition. In the fourth quarter of 2025, Spok was able to generate a 14% year-over-year and 83% sequential increase in software operations bookings. As I mentioned previously, I'm very proud of our ability to regain the momentum we saw in the first half of 2025. We were very happy with our ability to reverse the headwinds that we saw in Q3 bookings and believe that we will grow total bookings in 2026 from prior year levels, with this year's focus on accelerating our license sales and maintaining growth in professional services. Switching to operating expenses. While driving our top line, we also continued our focus on expense management, as operating expense levels for the year increased at a slower pace than year-over-year revenue growth. Our focus on expense management is one of the key drivers to generate increased cash flow does not come at the expense of our product platform, as we continue to make the necessary investments in product development, sales and marketing, customer support, and professional services to support the growth of our Spok Care Connect and wireless solutions. In 2025, Spok invested more than $12 million in product research and development, a nearly 5% increase from 2024. Investments such as these are critical to creating a best-of-breed product platform and to maintaining our solid industry reputation. In 2025, Spok continued to build upon our premier industry reputation. We started the year with our participation in both the ViVE 25 and HIMSS 25 conferences, where we showcased our top-rated clinical communications platform, Spok Care Connect. At both events, Spok experts demonstrated how more efficient communication across contact centers, care teams, and IT teams help healthcare organizations improve productivity and patient outcomes. Our presence at these industry-leading conferences was a true success, both in terms of the excitement level generated by Spok's products and the number of new sales leads we were able to add to our pipeline. We are excited to have a presence again at ViVE 26 this week and look forward to attending HIMSS 26 in March. Don't just take my word on how Spok continues to improve its reputation. In 2025, I believe that there were two key proof points that underscore our premier market position, as evidenced by, number one, earning top honors for the 8th consecutive year in a survey of healthcare industry clients by Black Book Market Research on top-rated secure messaging and clinical communication solutions. For the second time, Spok was also recognized as the leading performer of enterprise messaging and critical alert management solutions. As you may have seen earlier this month, Spok received top honors for the ninth consecutive year in this survey. Number two, also in the 2025 U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals Honor Roll, 18 of the 20 adult hospitals and nine of the 10 children's hospitals named to the list are Spok customers. Accolades such as these do not come if you don't have a best-in-class product offering and solid reputation with your customers. Spok has an amazing blue-chip customer base. Many of those customers have been with us for decades and continue to buy from us. In short, we executed at a high level in 2025. We are encouraged about the future as we start 2026. Based on our performance in 2025 and the momentum generated in the fourth quarter, we've provided guidance estimates for revenue and adjusted EBITDA generation in 2026. Calvin will go into more detail regarding expectations later in the call. Before I turn the call over to Mike to review our sales performance, let me briefly summarize the goals that support our critical and important mission. Our strategic goal is simple: run the business profitably, generate cash flow, and return that capital to stockholders. Spok has a proud legacy of creating stockholder value through free cash flow generation, and we intend to continue this track record. Since the beginning of our strategic pivot, which started almost four years ago, Spok has returned approximately $104.3 million, or $5 per share, to our stockholders in the form of our regular quarterly dividend. In fact, since we created this company in 2004, Spok has returned nearly $730 million to our stockholders, either through our regular quarterly dividend, special dividends, or share repurchases. In the fourth quarter of 2025, our history of returning cash to our stockholders continued as we returned $6.4 million in dividends. This continues our legacy of returning capital to shareholders since becoming a public company. We expect to pay dividends in excess of $27 million in 2026. Spok remains committed to our dividend policy and returning capital to our stockholders. When you take into consideration our current cash balance, distribution to stockholders, share repurchases, debt repayments, and acquisitions, Spok has now generated nearly $1.1 billion of free cash flow since our creation in 2004. Our focus on maximizing cash over the long term supports the four major tenets of our strategy. Number one, continued investment in our wireless and software solutions. Number two, growing our revenue base. Number three, disciplined expense management. Number four, a stockholder-friendly capital allocation plan. Going forward, we believe our extensive experience operating our established communication solutions and world-class customer base will continue to create significant value for stockholders. Now I'll turn the call over to our President and Chief Operating Officer, Michael Wallace, who will talk about our operational accomplishments. Michael? Thanks, Vince. Good afternoon. Thank you all for joining us for what we believe was a solid quarter and full year of results from Spok. We are pleased to report that we have continued to execute on our business plan, and in 2025, as Vince noted, we generated GAAP net income of $15.9 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, up from the prior year results. Importantly, we achieved this bottom line performance while continuing to generate operations bookings levels in excess of $30 million for the third consecutive year, as well as maintaining our professional services and maintenance backlog levels, which totaled more than $58 million. Amidst all the progress in continuing to create this solid financial platform and stockholder-friendly capital allocation strategy, we remain true to our mission of being a global leader in healthcare communications. Simply put, we deliver clinical information to care teams when and where it matters most to improve patient outcomes, as Spok enables smarter, faster clinical communications for our customers. Importantly, we continue to maintain our reputation as a thought leader in the healthcare communication space, as we continue to see customer satisfaction ratings at very high levels. 2025 was a frustrating year with regards to our software operations bookings, as we saw solid momentum in the first half of the year, offset by headwinds that we ran into in the third quarter. However, we regained that momentum in the fourth quarter, seeing 14% year-over-year and 83% sequential growth in bookings. In 2025, we were able to execute 73, six- and seven-figure customer contracts. In the fourth quarter, we saw a more than 50% year-over-year growth in the average customer contract size. Additionally, in 2025, we saw a 47% increase in licensed bookings related to multiyear engagements with customers. We believe this performance gives you a good indication of the momentum that our sales team is generating in the marketplace, and the confidence we have as we work our way through 2026, with a growing sales pipeline, both in terms of size and quality. Supporting our achievements in the fourth quarter were 14, six- and seven-figure contracts that we were able to close. Our achievements in the fourth quarter are clearly represented by three of those customer contracts. The first being a private, not-for-profit healthcare organization located in the Southeast. The second being a new partnership with a leading academic health system in the Northeast. The final contract with a large, integrated, nonprofit healthcare enterprise in the Mid-Atlantic, serving patients across the United States. Our first outstanding contract from last quarter is a customer in the Southeast who has been with Spok for almost 25 years. This customer is experiencing sustained growth driven by strategic acquisitions, new facility expansions, and continued investments in its healthcare initiatives. To support this growth, we deployed Spok Smart Suite across five additional hospitals and executed a three-year managed services agreement, providing recurring revenue and long-term engagement. This includes unlimited software upgrades, enterprise reporting, Spok Academy, our 24/7 on-demand self-paced learning platform, Spok Messenger, communication dashboards, and several of our value-added services. These types of contracts, where Spok is leveraging its footprint inside an existing premier customer that is growing through consolidation, is critical, as Spok maintains an over 50% market share of large hospitals, identified as those with more than 600 beds, and are responsible for most of the industry's consolidation. Spok also secured a new partnership with a well-known hospital that also serves as the only Level I Trauma Center in their geographic area. They are a 650-bed academic facility, serving over two million patients annually and growing, resulting in their transformation into a regional healthcare system providing excellent patient care. As part of this engagement, they will implement Spok Smart Suite Console and Web, Spok Messenger for Code Blue Automation, Spok Care Connect Reporting and Dashboards, and several of our value-added services. This health system is also the newest partner of our Premium Support Services team. Through this new partnership, Spok Software will support critical patient care communications in areas such as reducing the number of applications being utilized by various stakeholders, automating processes and functionality, along with comprehensive data reporting and analytics. Lastly, we secured another outstanding contract with a Spok customer we have done business with for decades. This Mid-Atlantic-based healthcare provider, with an international footprint, employs over 100,000 people and delivers care across more than 40 academic, community, and specialty hospitals. They facilitate over 3.2 million pages and messages annually, utilizing Spok Smart Suite from a centralized hybrid call center. This multiyear engagement, consisting of Spok Smart Suite and web upgrades, support this organization's interoperability needs that are key to system-wide standardization, all in parallel with the rollout of our new Spok Care Connect Reporting and Dashboards, Spok Academy, and Consulting as a Service offering. This contract also includes a five-year managed services commitment that will extend our existing partnership and continue to drive value and critical communication services that are core to this customer's mission and growth. Finally, an additional site acquired through M&A will be integrated into their Premium Support Services, further expanding the value and support that our customers expect. Looking ahead, expansion of their Spok Smart Suite consoles to additional sites is already under consideration. Overall, fourth quarter deal activity underscores steady execution and reinforces our focus on opportunities that align with our strategic and financial objectives. With that said, I'd like to turn the call over to our Chief Financial Officer, Calvin Rice. Calvin? Thanks, Mike. Good afternoon, everyone. I would now like to take a few minutes and provide a recap of our fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial performance, which we reported earlier today. As always, I encourage you to review our 10-K when filed, as it includes significantly more information about our business operations and financial performance than we will cover on this call. Turning to our income statement, in 2025, GAAP net income totaled $15.9 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, up from net income of $15 million or $0.73 per diluted share in 2024. In 2025, total GAAP revenue was $139.7 million, up from revenue of $137.7 million in 2024. Wireless revenue of $72.5 million for the year was down from revenue of $73.5 million in the prior year. This was more than offset by growth in software revenue to $67.2 million in 2025. Year-over-year growth in software revenue was driven by a nearly 24% increase in professional services revenue and the continued success of our managed services offering. With respect to wireless revenue, the deceleration of revenue decline was primarily driven by pricing actions taken on unreturned pager equipment earlier in 2025. While net unit loss was relatively flat from 2024, product sales, of which unreturned pager equipment fees comprised more than 80% of the related revenue, increased by $1.4 million, or 54%. Average revenue per unit, or ARPU, which saw growth of $0.23 on a year-over-year basis, continues to be our primary tool in combating revenue decline from unit loss. Much of this increase was driven by previous pricing actions and, to a lesser extent, incremental pass-through taxes and fees. Net unit churn in the fourth quarter improved 12 basis points to 1.3% from the prior quarter, and we believe that we can continue to manage net unit churn to the mid-single-digit range in 2026. While we expect demand for our wireless services will continue to decline on a secular basis, as reflected in declining pager unit and service, we remain focused on pricing and other initiatives like the GenA pager, with over 72,000 units, or roughly 11% of total units in service at the end of 2025, to further offset revenue loss through pager unit decline. This is further reflected in our updated financial guidance, which I will walk through shortly. Turning to software revenue in 2025, license and hardware revenue of $8.6 million was down from $9 million in 2024. Maintenance and subscription revenue totaled $36.4 million, down 2.1% from the prior year. As we have discussed in previous quarterly calls, we expect our product development efforts will lead to further growth of our operations bookings and increased software license sales in the coming years and maintenance revenue along with it. As previously mentioned, growth in professional services revenue was a key driver in the annual growth of software revenue in 2025. Professional services revenue of $22.1 million in 2025 was up 23.7% from revenue of $17.9 million in 2024. We continue to see sustained improvement in resource utilization, delivering on our internal initiatives to better align total resources with our backlog and drive a higher rate of margin and net cash flow. At present, we believe we have largely reached our optimal operating efficiency in professional services relative to our current product state. We will continue to align total resources with our backlog, and we should continue to see benefit from managed services. However, bookings growth will be the primary factor underlying continued growth of our services revenue. As we work towards developing and delivering a modernized solution, we anticipate a reduction in the complexity of our implementations, which is likely to create additional efficiencies in the future. Managed services revenue totaled $6.6 million, or nearly 30% of professional services revenue in 2025. This is up from $3.3 million, or 18% of professional services revenue in 2024. We remain optimistic by the prospects of this service offering and are thrilled by the success of this service offering thus far. Before getting into operating expenses, I want to take a minute to highlight a reclassification exercise that we undertook at the end of 2025. Historically, we have included certain IT software and personnel costs within general and administrative that we now feel are better reflected in their functional groups. All prior period financials have been restated to conform to current period presentation, and additional information regarding these costs are included within the footnotes of the 2025 Form 10-K, once filed. Full year 2025 adjusted operating expenses, which excludes depreciation, amortization, and accretion and severance and restructuring costs, totaled $116.1 million, up 2.4% from the prior year. Cost of revenue increased primarily due to the aforementioned increase in professional services revenue and the related hiring to support those services. Increases in research and development reflected our continued investment in our product and services platform, with reductions in technology operations driven by our normal practice of cost reduction in relationship to declining wireless revenues. Selling and marketing costs increased 9.1% from the prior year, primarily driven by higher commissions on higher revenue, with 2024 expenses having also benefited from a one-time item of approximately $0.9 million when we began to amortize a subset of our commission expense that had historically been expensed as incurred. General and administrative costs increased 2%, largely stemming from legal costs incurred in non-core business activities. Excluding these costs, general and administrative costs were generally in line with 2024. Adjusted EBITDA was $29 million in 2025, in line with 2024. Spok continues to generate healthy levels of adjusted EBITDA at a nearly 21% margin in 2025. We continue to operate a highly profitable business, funding a strong dividend and delivering on our promises made in 2022 to shift our primary focus towards profitability. Finally, we ended 2025 with $25.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, which grew from $21.4 million at the end of the third quarter. Moving on to guidance for 2026, we have provided estimates for revenue and adjusted EBITDA. As a reminder, the figures I'm going to discuss today are included in our guidance table in the earnings release. In 2026, we expect total revenue to range from $136 million-$143 million. The midpoint of our guidance reflects consolidated revenue generally in line with 2025 results, but with a higher mix of software revenue, while the high end of our guidance reflects a nearly 2.3% annual growth. We expect wireless revenue to range from $68 million-$71 million, and software revenue to range from $68 million-$72 million in 2026. The midpoint of software revenue guidance implying growth of more than 4% and more than 7% at the high end of the guidance range. The midpoint for each revenue type would indicate the first time in the company's history whereby software revenue would be greater than wireless revenue. Our adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2026 is $27.5 million-$32.5 million. The midpoint reflects improvement over 2025, while the high end represents over 12% growth, largely expected to be driven by a greater mix of higher-margin software license bookings. I will now turn the call back over to Vince. Thank you, Calvin. Before we open up the call to your questions, let me say again how proud I am of our entire Spok team in regaining the momentum that we saw in the first half of 2025. It's their efforts and dedication, which provides confidence in our outlook for 2026. We are focused on the opportunity in front of us in clinical communications. From a business configuration and strategy perspective, we believe we are strongly positioned to grow our franchise while returning capital to stockholders. We have a long-term organic growth engine in Spok Care Connect. We maintain a strong source of recurring revenue in our wireless service line. We run the largest paging offering in the world, integrated with our software operations. We have enhanced our paging platform and user devices to serve our core healthcare customer base. We believe these two assets going for us, our best financial results are ahead of us, and Spok's future is bright. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank our stockholders for their continued support and want to assure you that our primary focus remains on generating cash and increasing stockholder value. We are committed to our current dividend and capital allocation policy. I believe that today we've provided you an appreciation for some of the great things that are happening at Spok and the market opportunities that lay ahead of us. While we've shared our initial guidance with you for 2026, we will work to exceed those expectations and update you each quarter. We've started the year off strong, and we very much look forward to speaking with you again in two months when we report our Q1 results in late April. That concludes our prepared remarks. At this point, I'll ask the operator to open the call up for your questions. We'd ask you to limit your initial questions to one in a follow-up, and after that, we'll take additional questions as time allows. Operator? Thank you. We will now be conducting a question-and-answer session. If you would like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad. A confirmation tone will indicate your line is in the question queue. You may press Star two if you would like to remove your question from the queue. For participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the star keys. Again, that is star one if you would like to ask a question. Our first question will come from Anderson Schock with B. Riley Securities. Hey, good afternoon, and thank you for taking the questions. First, on software backlog, it declined 6.8% year-over-year, but excluded from this are the cancelable contracts, which nearly tripled year-over-year to around $16 million. Can you explain what's driving the shift in the cancelable portion? Yeah. Hey, Anderson, this is Calvin. How's it going? Yeah, you know, from a cancelable perspective, you know, I think we've alluded to in the past from a bookings perspective, that our deal size is growing. We're leveraging, you know, up to seven-figure contract deals, and with that's gonna come, you know, terms that may be slightly unfavorable to the company. Obviously, we'd love to lock those in, but with some of these customers, you know, we have to negotiate those terms. I think that's primarily what's driving that, again, relative to the historical growth in the backlog and the bookings. We really view that, exclusive, or I should say, inclusive of those cancelable portions. You know, we fully expect to collect all of that. We have a history, while not as large in the past, we've never really had any customers renege on those cancelable portions, and so we fully expect to realize the full value of those backlog numbers. Okay. Got it. Thank you. On fourth quarter software operations bookings, so it recovered to roughly around the first quarter level. I guess, how should we think about this going forward? Was the second quarter of 2025 an outlier, or should we expect a return to this level at some point in 2026? I think, you know, with respect to the things that we just issued, that obviously incorporates our bookings expectations in there in terms of what's gonna flow through to revenue and push that forward. We think we're gonna grow our operations bookings in 2026 over the level of 2025. It's very hard to say on a quarterly basis because these contracts sometimes, especially the larger ones that Calvin alluded to. They're very lumpy. We've got a really large one right now. We're waiting to get signed, and we're hoping it comes in in the first quarter, may come in in the second quarter. Those large contracts really can push and keep the quarter much higher. What really matters is what happens over the course of the four quarters. We're optimistic this year from everything we see in the marketplace, that our total bookings will grow this year over 2025 levels. Okay, got it. Thank you for taking the questions. Thank you. Again, that is star one if you would like to ask a question. We'll go next to David Wright with Henry Investment Trust. Hi, good afternoon. Thanks for picking me up. A question, how do you look at AI with your business, particularly Spok Care Connect, in terms of opportunities or threats? Yeah, I think there's two things to look at right now. One is AI with respect to our own internal functioning and our R&D efforts in terms of our coding efficiency, et cetera, and just making us spend less and get more. That's something we're well down the path on with our internal teams, getting the training, evaluating how we do business, and all those things that you read about on a daily basis in the financial blogs and newspaper. With respect to our customers, you know, our primary functionality, where we have the majority of large hospitals in the United States as customers, many of them for decades, our primary functionality, operator console, where they're often taking inbound calls that sometimes are life and death type situations, code calls, et cetera. We're working with several partners right now to incorporate AI into that functionality, and we believe we'll do so this year. We wanna be very careful with respect to the feedback we're getting from our customers, because they're not gonna take. You know, you have a large healthcare system, and they have, you know, one or two operators on call in the middle of the night, and there's emergencies being called in. They're not at a point where they feel comfortable turning that type of functionality over to an AI operator. I think what you'll see more likely is some type of, you know, helper for those operators to make them more efficient and more automated. I think one place that will really help them is with respect to training up new staff, because it can often take one of these hospitals, you know, up to three months to train staff, where they really feel like they can leave them in a situation where they can handle those types of life and death calls. I think there's great opportunity there, and, you know, what we've seen is the same thing you're seeing. Every three months, it seems to be an order of magnitude leap in terms of what this stuff can do. We're looking very closely at these. We've contracted with a couple of the AI companies that are household names right now, in terms of utilizing their software in our, in our roadmap process. There's gonna be more to come on that, but it's something we wanna be very careful as we go to implement, because, you know, sometimes these large language models can make a mistake, and we're in a business of, you know, saving time, connecting the right people to the right device at the right time and saving lives. Yeah, I meant to say Spok Console, by the way, not Spok Connect. Yeah. Um- No, that's, I assumed that's what you meant. Okay. Then to follow up, Vince, you talked about somewhat frequently about making investments to grow the revenue base and fuel future growth, and, you know, what does that look like? You've done a really good job of, you know, keeping the thing stable, over the last several years since you made the switch. Is, is growth, you know, growth has been on the top line, 1.5% a year is like... What does, you know, in an ideal world, what does your vision look like? The world for 2026, in terms of our vision, matches the guidance we just gave. We are running a tightrope balance between, you know, we're a public company that has a free cash flow stated strategy. You know, we're generating that cash flow on a quarterly basis, so we can fund that dividend and have a little bit left over. Last year, we invested about $12 million in our R&D process, and a big portion of that was going toward new platform, new capability, new functionality, including this AI area. A big portion was going to support the legacy software solutions that we offer. Going forward, we're shifting that investment more toward what's coming new and less on the legacy. What you would expect to see in 27, 28, 29, is higher growth and less in line in our 2026 guidance or otherwise it wouldn't be making any investment. Again, like, in a perfect world, you know, if we were, say, a private company, not a public company, we might be a lot more aggressive, you know, in terms of how we made those investments in the new platform, because we wouldn't have to, you know, focus on just having the dividend. We think it's important in this software world of technology, to be more with the shareholders, to pay the shareholders on the way as we go. That's kind of why our strategy is balanced the way it is. Okay. Well, great. Again, thanks for taking my questions. Thank you. This now concludes our question-and-answer session. I would like to turn the floor back over to Vince Kelly for closing comments. Okay. Thank you very much for your participation and your support. It does conclude today's teleconference. You do have a wonderful day, and we look forward to speaking with you again at the end of April when we report our first quarter results. Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your participation. This does conclude today's teleconference. You may disconnect your lines and have a wonderful day.
