Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us on the call today. We entered 2025 focused on accelerating our strategic growth initiative and diversifying our contract portfolio. In the first half of this year, we announced two multi-year contracts valued at over $400 million, supporting a diverse range of customers. These contracts exemplify Target 's unique value proposition and our ability to deliver tailored solutions and exceptional services across various end markets. Additionally, we are finalizing contract discussions regarding a multi-year lease and services agreement that supports the rapidly expanding technology infrastructure and data center end market. This agreement will further broaden our diverse end market reach and contract portfolio. These achievements have driven significant progress in advancing our growth initiatives, both within Target 's existing markets and in developing new growth sectors. Moreover, these diverse markets all benefit from strong long-term growth trends, providing solid platforms to accelerate our strategic objectives. Our growth pipeline remains strong, supported by a historic domestic investment cycle and rising demand from the government segment. With these strong tailwinds, we continue to focus on maintaining this momentum and advancing our strategic initiatives. Turning to our segment and specific growth opportunities. Our HFS segment continues to benefit from consistent customer demand as clients value our premium service offerings and network capabilities. Target Hospitality's ability to deliver these unmatched solutions is essential for maintaining long-term customer relationships and achieving consistent contract renewal rates exceeding 90%. These factors help secure a recent multi-year contract extension with one of our largest HFS customers, highlighting a relationship that has lasted over 15 years. This proven operating model is central to Target Hospitality's success and has served as a blueprint for potential new customers, demonstrating the benefit and unique value propositions of our vertically integrated accommodations platform. These distinctive capabilities supported the workforce subcontract announced in February, along with recent contract modifications supporting community enhancements. The increased scope of the contract, which raises the total contract values to approximately $154 million, exemplifies Target 's capacity to develop highly tailored solutions to meet specific customer needs. These enhancements underscore the importance of this community, and we see further opportunities for expanded contract scope and term extensions to support the development of this critical mineral supply chain. Target 's bespoke solutions and unmatched capabilities in developing comprehensive remote workforce communities have supported the advanced contract discussions for our anticipated data center community. This contract further expands Target Hospitality's end market reach and creates a new growth sector supporting the unprecedented growth in AI and data center construction. As we conclude contract discussions, we have started preliminary construction for this highly customized community and expect to share more details soon. This rapidly growing market is driven by historic domestic investment and long-term growth trends. Since January 2025, more than $1.2 trillion has been committed to developing and enhancing technology infrastructures to support artificial intelligence and data centers. The scale and remote locations of these projects generate significant demand for comprehensive workforce hospitality solutions. As demonstrated by these recent contracts and advanced discussions, Target 's distinctive ability to deliver integrated solutions aligns perfectly with the needs of remote workforce communities. These factors have created one of the most significant commercial growth pipelines we've seen in years. Our reputation as the leading provider of remote hospitality solutions uniquely positions Target to support this rapidly expanding end market demand. We are excited about these growth opportunities, which we believe establish a vital long-term commercial vertical aligned with Target 's strategic growth objectives. Now moving to the government segment. The reactivation of our Dilly, Texas, assets remains on schedule, with community ramp-up expected to be completed in September. The successful reopening of this facility highlights the importance of our decision to keep this community prepared to reopen alongside our partners. Target 's ability to quickly mobilize and respond to government demands has established a strong reputation for delivering unmatched solutions across various critical U.S. government immigration initiatives. These qualities form a solid foundation as Target continues to evaluate and pursue additional growth opportunities within the government sector. With the passage of the 2025 reconciliation bill in July, the U.S. government has allocated $45 billion towards specific border security initiatives, including expanding assets and bed capacity. These initiatives will require coordination among multiple federal agencies to identify the most effective ways to implement comprehensive operational solutions. Because of the broad scope of these efforts and the resources needed for proper execution, predicting the timing of a specific contract award is difficult. However, we are taking deliberate steps to demonstrate Target 's capabilities and believe there are multiple avenues to support these key policy initiatives. Regarding our West Texas assets, we remain encouraged by ongoing interest from the U.S. government in utilizing this readily accessible community. We have continued to host site visits with government officials and potential partners, receiving positive feedback. We remain confident in this community's ability to deliver a vital solution aligned with the government's policy objectives. While actively remarketing our West Texas assets, we are also exploring various strategies to develop innovative solutions that support immigration initiatives beyond Target 's current asset portfolio and available beds. Recently, we developed and proposed proprietary solutions to help the government urgently expand critical immigration housing infrastructure. These tailored and highly customized solutions have generated strong interest from government agencies and potential partners. We are optimistic about leveraging these innovative solutions to support their policy objectives. In summary, the strength of our core accommodations platform and our distinctive capabilities have driven considerable progress towards key strategic goals. We are encouraged by the strongest growth pipeline we've seen in years, supported by an unprecedented domestic investment cycle and increasing demand within the government segment. We believe these opportunities offer multiple pathways to expand our business portfolio and continue advancing our strategic objectives. I'll now turn the call over to Jason to discuss our financial results in more detail. Thank you, Brad. Second quarter's total revenue was approximately $62 million, with adjusted EBITDA of approximately $4 million. Our government segment generated quarterly revenue of approximately $7 million. The declines from the previous year were primarily driven by the termination of the PCC contract effective February 21, 2025, and partially by the termination of the South Texas Family Residential Center contract on August 9, 2024. These declines were modestly offset by the reactivation of our Dilly, Texas assets effective March 5, 2025. As a reminder, this contract is based on fixed monthly revenue regardless of occupancy. It is expected to produce approximately $30 million in revenue in 2025, with over $246 million over its expected five-year term. However, as this community progressively reopens, 2025 monthly revenue will align with the reactivation of each neighborhood within the facility. Additionally, this gradual reopening will lead to lower margin contributions through the second and third quarters of 2025 before full reactivation occurs. We expect the community to be fully operational by September 2025, at which point we will see revenue and margin contributions consistent with the entire 2,400-bed community. Regarding our West Texas assets, as a reminder, we have decided to keep these assets in a ready state while actively remarketing. This decision, which is similar to our approach with the Dilly assets, will entail carrying costs of about $2 million- $3 million per quarter until a new contract is potentially awarded. Turning to our HFS and All Other segments, these segments delivered quarterly revenue of approximately $39 million. The scale of our HFS segments enables us to offer premium solutions across our network while maintaining substantial asset utilization in a competitive market. We will continue to balance network optimization with demand while identifying opportunities to enhance efficiency and margin contribution. Moving on to the expanding Workforce Hospitality Solutions segment, or WHS, this segment, which includes our Workforce Hub contract, generated approximately $15 million in revenue in the second quarter, primarily related to construction activity. As announced today, the critical nature of this contract led to recent modifications and scope expansions, increasing its total contract values from $140 million to approximately $154 million. These community enhancements will lead to additional construction activity in 2025 and shift from previously expected services revenue into 2026. With the scope expansion, we now expect most construction revenue to be recognized in the third and fourth quarters of this year, with construction materially complete by the end of 2025. As we finish construction, we anticipate increased services revenue starting in 2026 and continuing through 2027. The scope expansion and contract modifications highlight the vital role of the Workforce Hub in the project's success, and we see potential for further scope expansions and contract extensions. This demonstrates the advantages of our vertically integrated hospitality solutions and our ability to create long-term revenue streams supporting large-scale remote operations. Recurring corporate expenses for the quarter were approximately $10 million. As we progress through the year, we will continue exploring ways to optimize our cost structure and enhance margin contributions. Total capital spending for the quarter was approximately $6 million, primarily focused on enhancing asset capabilities within the government segment aligned with our strategic growth initiatives. During the first half of 2025, Target Hospitality's business fundamentals and durable operating model supported strong cash conversion, resulting in over $15 million of cash flows from operations. These fundamentals are reflected in the strength of our balance sheet and our ability to maintain substantial financial flexibility through prudent capital management. The end of the quarter was $19 million in cash and a net leverage ratio of 0.1 x. As of August 1st, we have no outstanding borrowings under the company's $175 million revolving credit facility, providing total available liquidity of over $190 million, including approximately $23 million in cash. This robust liquidity position further enhances our financial flexibility as we evaluate a strong pipeline of growth opportunities. This momentum and positive operating environment, along with the expanded scope of the Workforce Hub contract, support our raised outlook for 2025, which now includes total revenue of $310- $320 million and adjusted EBITDA of $50- $60 million. This raised outlook reflects a 15% increase in the midpoint revenue and a 6% increase in the midpoint adjusted EBITDA compared to our previous outlook. Target is well-positioned with a flexible operating model and an optimized balance sheet as we continue to evaluate our robust growth pipelines, which we believe offers the greatest opportunities to accelerate value creation for our shareholders. Importantly, as we pursue these opportunities, we will stay focused on maintaining the strong financial profile we've built while optimizing margin contributions through our efficient operating structure. With that, I will hand it back to Brad for closing remarks. Thank you, Jason. In the first half of 2025, we have made significant progress towards achieving key elements of our strategic priorities, focused on expanding and diversifying our business portfolio. We announced two multi-year contracts serving diverse end markets and are finalizing contract discussions supporting the rapidly growing AI and data center end market. Additionally, we see clear opportunities to enhance our growing contract portfolio with expanded service offerings and term extensions. We remain focused on maintaining this momentum as we evaluate our strongest growth pipeline in many years, comprising both commercial and government end markets. Importantly, this pipeline is supported by an unprecedented domestic investment cycle and continued strong demand in the government sector. We are excited about these opportunities, underpinned by robust market fundamentals and secular momentum. We believe that our distinctive capabilities and unparalleled solutions position us well as we actively pursue these strategic growth initiatives designed to provide exceptional value to our shareholders. Thank you for joining us on the call today, and again, we appreciate your interest in Target Hospitality. We will now open the call for questions. Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, we'll now begin the question and answer session. Should you have a question, please press the star followed by the one on your touch-tone phone. You will hear a prompt for your hand held and raised. Should you wish to decline from the polling process, please press the star followed by the two. If you are using a speakerphone, please raise your hand first before pressing any keys. One moment, please, for your first question. Your first question comes from Scott Schneeberger from Oppenheimer. Please go ahead. Good morning, guys. It's Daniel on for Scott. Thank you for taking our question. I just want to start on West Texas first. You mentioned site visits. How should we think about the steps from here, how those discussions could progress, and the potential for this contract to be comparable to the prior contract at that site? I think that was Mark. The question was just on West Texas timeline and the opportunities there? Yes, correct. Concerning the government. Right. Yeah, correct. We couldn't quite hear you. Thank you, Daniel. From the timeline, still consistent with what we said, right? We know that the reconciliation bill has been passed, but right now we're not seeing that money flow, right? What we do know is we're having some very good discussions continually with the government. We also have been told we're on their acquisition list, right? As those funds start to flow, we don't know exactly where in line we're at, but we still feel very good on that facility as far as being leased and reactivated, right? There's nothing that's changed in that. We continue to have different parts of the government out to view the property, take a look, and continue positive statements around that. We still feel really good about that as we get in the back half of the year. Got it. Thank you. On the data center opportunity, how should we think about the—I mean, we'll get the economic details eventually, but how should we think about the structure there? Could that be comparable to the Workforce Hub contract? It sounds like the timing is imminent to that, but any more color you can provide there? Yeah, sure. This is Jason. We won't get into too much detail because we hope to release more details for you in the near term. I will say on this deal, it'll be a bit different than the Workforce Hub contract because we're going to own the assets. I would say the margin on that typically is a bit higher than a services-only contract. This is a lease and services agreement, not dissimilar to the Dilly structure. Let me just add a little bit more to that and give you a little bit more color on this. We are waiting on the final contract. What we do have is an early works contract where we're doing some work on the site. I will tell you this is imminent. It's happening fairly quickly in starting to fully mobilize on that site. I think at a higher level, it's probably a good time. You know, we've talked about the data center end market the past couple of quarters, and this is really starting to ramp up. It has the ability to be what we would say is a game changer for our company. It's kind of a perfect storm when you look to what's happening in that business. Aside from all the capital spend that's already committed and weekly more continues to be committed, right? If you look across the U.S., these are going in everywhere. Not everyone or not every project fits the Target Hospitality mold, but more and more continue to fit that. What's happening is, in a lot of these local communities, they're being voted down, right? They're taking on so much power, so much water. It's massive amounts of people coming into the town over a three, four, five, six, seven-year period on the construction cycle, right? These developers are being forced out into more and more remote locations. These developers are fighting each other over labor. Labor is very hard to get. When I talk about a perfect storm, it's exactly what we went through in my history in this business, where these huge booms, right, and lots of money being committed. It's in these remote areas where we come in and help in that. We deliver the housing. We deliver the services. We help them retain and attract the workforce because it's very competitive. We've got our first one under contract, which we'll finalize very soon, and many more in the pipeline. I'm not sure we've talked about the scale of this like I'm telling you today. It's massive. Our pipeline continues to fill up. Yes, we need to close some of them, but we have some near-term and some longer-term that we're working on. We are very excited internally because of the things it can do for us. It's exactly what we've done over the years in the oil and gas, in the mining, but on a much larger scale. Got it. Excellent color. Thank you so much. Thank you. As a reminder, if you wish to ask a question, please press star one. Your next question comes from Stephen Gengaro from Stifel. Please go ahead. Thanks. Good morning, everybody. Morning. When you think about these things on a contract, in terms of duration, I think about oil and gas. It's kind of this great network approach, right? You have people moving around, but you have them for someone like Halliburton all the time. Is this sort of like a permanent multi-year facility where workers will be in the same spot for years, or is it kind of more of a shorter-term network approach, which probably just has a lot of demand out there that will continue to fill that? It's your first statement, right? A large amount of workforce in one location for many years, right? If you see some of these that they're doing, that they're putting out in the press, first they need the power and they need the water, right? Then what they say is we've got a build-out of seven years. We're going to start with two. They get those leased and they continually build another two, another four as they get the commitment. Very similar to the gas when they build a pipeline, right? They get the commitments and they continue to fill it. These are longer-term, right? Huge multi-billion dollar projects in that one location where we're a very small part of the spend, but a huge critical piece of making success for them, right? Staying on budget and staying on timeline. Without us in some of these locations, especially with this first one, they just couldn't get the job done. We're just seeing more and more of these going remote, getting closer to the power source, closer to the water source, being forced out of the bigger cities. It's just right in our wheelhouse on these. Thank you. If I could tie that into the oil and gas business for a second, when we think about drilling into police activity, it looks like there's some level of maybe a bit lower norms for a while as you know people with fewer access capacity and the range of police activity is much more stable in terms of people out there. Are you, what's the source of beds for the data center end market? Is it sticking from the oil and gas network? Is it incremental CapEx? Is it a combination of both? Is it TCOs to the contract, something else? How do you think about the beds? Yeah, it's the same way we've always thought about it in our business, right? We look at any excess capacity and try to utilize that first, right? We wouldn't be, if you will, mothballing the oil and gas side of the business. It's a great business. We have to have a certain number of rooms out there. We do have some excess capacity out there that's not being used that we would first utilize on the data center. Secondly, we would look in the open market to buy, right? Then we would look to build new. What I would tell you, the amount of work that's out there that's on our radar would absolutely in the future have us buying new product. In short, the amount of work in our pipeline, that is very real and actionable. If we get a few of these, we would absolutely have to go and buy because they're massive and it's all over the U.S., right? We would run out of equipment. That's a high-class problem, a good one. We're okay with that, right? We have the capital structure to make that happen, and that'll all be built into the economics and the opportunity as appropriate. Great counterparties on these, huge companies, right? Okay. Thank you. Just one quick follow-up. Back in, I don't know, 2019, I think the numbers that we were using were about $50,000 per bed. Is that still a reasonable number given the inflation environment, etc., if you're using it to ultimately add capacity or is it too early to try? I haven't seen anything stay the same price since 2019 after COVID and everything. I would tell you that probably goes up. Where that's at, we're not going to divulge kind of where we're at on a cost right now per bed. What I would lean back into is what Jason said. What it will be is rolled into our economics. Whether that's $50,000, $60,000, $70,000 a room, we're going to make sure that the economics work, and more so kind of how our HFS and that stuff looks, higher economics than what you're seeing on an LAC project for sure, right? Great. I appreciate the call, Brad. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Your next question comes from Greg Gibas from Northland Securities. Please go ahead. Great. Good morning, Brad and Jason. Nice to hear of that near finalization of the data center community contract. I wanted to follow up there in terms of how competitive the bidding was for that contract and maybe the key factors that led them to select Target Hospitality. Yeah, look, I would tell you it was except our numbers, right? When you look at the scale of some of these, the ability to move fast, when you're talking $1 billion projects that they're building, we become a small, again, a small piece of the spend. It doesn't come down to saving a few bucks on a room. They look at, can you get the job done? Can you help us retain and attract the workforce that we need? It's not so much a price point, right, which is exactly what we like. It's, can you get it done? Can you deliver what you say you're going to deliver on time? That's really where this went. Was it competitive? Sure, they're always competitive. This wasn't a price-driven exercise. We're not seeing a lot of price-driven exercises on the one because we have many more of these that we're looking at. Great. That's very helpful and good to hear. Wondering if I could get a little bit more color on kind of the pushing case relative to the updated guidance. I know not a big change, but you mentioned the positive momentum, positive environment, and then some changes to the Workforce Hub contract. Just wondering what's changed regarding what's implied in the updated guidance changes. Yeah. The two main drivers of the guidance updates, the lead driver on the revenue side for sure is the Workforce Hub contract expansion. Now the total contract value has increased from $140 million- $154 million, driven by construction activity. That construction activity has expanded. We still anticipate the construction activity to be completed this year. Timing has shifted a little bit. That is the main driver behind the guidance, particularly on the revenue side. We also had that PCC contract wrap-up settlement as well that played into the guidance. Those are the two primary drivers, the outlook increase. Yep. Hey, Greg. Hey, Brad. Yeah. I don't jump in on Jason here, but you know, again, this quarter, a little bit of noise, right? I'll say this. It kind of cleans itself up as we move through the year and get into 2026 as well. It's not really much to pay attention to as far as the noise here. It's kind of a tale of two stories, right? We've seen where this is going. We kind of predicted this other than the timing. The project got a lot larger, right? We're happy to move that to the right for the customer and help them. The project continues to grow, and you know our numbers get better as we roll through the year, especially as we add new projects. Very helpful. Appreciate it, guys. If I could just follow up on West Texas assets, and not sure if there's that much more you can share there, but how would you maybe characterize the interest from the government agencies relative to last quarter, if that's changed at all? It has not waned at all, right? Still very high. To be honest, it's gotten a little higher because they got their budget approved, right? You know there's more firm discussions about what they're trying to do. I will tell you, the government, and this is not a knock, they just have so much that they're trying to do, right? We know they've got the money. I think some folks thought, well, they got the money, they'll start writing checks the next day. That's just not how it works. It takes time for it to get appropriated, for it to flow out the doors. We think we start to see that in the back half of the year. What hasn't changed is their need for at least 100,000 beds, right? They have to add a lot of beds in that. We are still squarely in the midst there, not only on our West Texas assets, but I'm going to take this time. You mentioned the proprietary facility that we've built. The government's came and inspected it. The name of that is SecureFlex. That's the trademark name of this. It's a great product. The government's excited about it. It gives us another optionality with them that they've looked at and we've quoted on some new builds for them for part of this 100,000 room expansion you know that they're trying to do or to get to 100,000 rooms. We think this new product really helps us as we continue to move forward, not only with the federal, but if the state needs it as well. Some good stuff going on in the government, aside from just the West Texas asset, lots of opportunity out there. Yeah, that's great to hear. Thanks very much, guys. Thank you. There are no further questions at this time. Mr. Brad Archer, may you please take your conference? Yeah, thanks for joining us on the call today, and we look forward to talking to you next quarter. I'll turn the call back over. Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, this does conclude your conference call for today. We thank you very much for your participation. You may now disconnect your line. Have a great day.
