Good afternoon all. I'd like to welcome you all to the Skillz, Inc. 2025 First Quarter Results Call. My name is Lauren, and I'll be moderating your call today. [Operator Instructions]. I would now like to pass the conference call over to our host, Richard Land from JCIR to begin. Please go ahead.

Good afternoon, and welcome to the Skillz first quarter earnings conference call. On the call today are Andrew Paradise, Skillz's Co-Founder and CEO; and Gaetano Franceschi, CFO. This afternoon, Skillz issued its 2025 first quarter release, which is available on the company's Investor Relations website. The company is in the process of completing its unaudited interim financial statements and other disclosures for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025. Accordingly, we are announcing preliminary results for the first quarter, which are based on currently available information and are subject to revision. Actual results may differ from these preliminary financial results and other financial information as final adjustments and developments may arise between now and the time the results are finalized. In the event, the company determines it will not files its quarterly report on Form 10-Q by the prescribed deadline it will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission and extension on Form 12b-25, which may include further disclosure. The company is also completing the financial statements and other disclosures for the year ended December 31, 2024. We were unable to file the Form 10-K during the requisite extension period. We previously announced we received a notice from the NYSE that the company was not in compliance with its listing standards. The company is working diligently to complete the necessary work to file the Form 10-K as soon as practicable and currently expects to file the Form 10-K within the six month period granted by the NYSE notice and intends to take all necessary steps to achieve compliance with applicable NYSE listing standards as soon as practicable. Before I turn the call over to Andrew, please note that management's comments today may include forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements, which are usually identified by the use of words such as will, expect, should or other similar phrases are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from what we expect. Therefore, you should exercise caution in interpreting and relying on them. We refer you to the company's SEC filings for a more detailed discussion of the risks that could impact future operating results and financial condition. During the call, management will discuss non-GAAP financial measures, which it believes can be useful in evaluating the company's operating performance. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is available in the company's first quarter 2025 earnings release. With that, I'll turn the call over to Andrew for some opening remarks, followed by Gaetano for a discussion of our financial performance before we open the call for questions. Andrew?

Thank you, Richard, and good afternoon. Before turning to an update on the operational progress made against our four pillars, I want to first update you on our fair play initiative and related litigation. As we've discussed on previous calls, these matters are central to protecting consumers and the integrity of their industry. We remain active with our efforts to sound alarm that all companies in this space must provide consumers with certainty that they're being matched with real players. As we've highlighted for over a year, this is an industry-wide issue. Our proprietary platform strives to deliver on this promise of fairness to players. Billions of dollars are at stake and the long-term health of our industry depends on building trust. We believe international companies such as AviaGames, Papaya Gaming and Voodoo Games have used or are using bots to see players around the world. As a result, we believe players are being tricked into playing against bots or engaging in predetermined gameplay. We also believe our business has been harmed by these actions. To protect our business interests as well as the interest of our stakeholders, we filed lawsuits against Papaya and Voodoo. These lawsuits are ongoing in the Southern District Court of New York. And as these cases progress, these international companies will have to answer under U.S. law. Regarding our litigation with Papaya, discovery is ongoing continues to be subject to a protective order. However, the following fact is public, which comes from a recent unsealed ruling. The presiding judge in this case noted as she documented in her ruling, and I quote, in recent depositions, none of Papaya's individual deposition witnesses denied the historic use of bots as they all asserted their "fifth amendment rights against self-incrimination rather than testifying to any potentially disputed facts."…

Thank you, Andrew, and good afternoon, everyone. Turning to the first quarter financial results. Revenue was $22 million, up 21% sequentially and down 11% year-over-year. Excluding a $1.6 million life-to-date incentive adjustment in Q4, revenue grew 12% sequentially. Our paid user conversion rate, which is paying MAU divided by MAU was 16.2% in Q1, up from 14.6% in Q4 2024, with both PMAU and MAU higher quarter-over-quarter. Research and development expense was $5 million, up 4% year-over-year. Sales and marketing expense was $19 million, down 9% year-over-year. Q1 UA marketing was $4 million, while Q1 engagement marketing was $9 million. General and administrative expense was $16 million, down 29% year-over-year and excluding the impact of stock-based compensation was $12 million. Net loss of $15 million compares to a net loss of $27 million in prior year. Adjusted EBITDA loss in the first quarter was $15 million compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $19 million in Q4 2024. We ended the first quarter with $264 million of cash comprised of $254 million in cash and cash equivalents and $10 million in restricted cash. Our cash position as of March 31 includes the $7.5 million payment we received from AviaGames as part of last year's settlement of our patent infringement case with that. This was the first of the four annual payments we will receive from Avia, which is in addition to the $50 million payment we received last April. At the end of Q1, we had $129.7 million of total principal due on our outstanding debt. With our improving cash burn, we have the flexibility to deploy capital to enhance shareholder value. At this time, we'll turn the call back to the operator for the Q&A session.

Thank you. We will now begin the Q&A session. [Operator Instructions]. Okay. We have no questions registered. So that is now the end of the Q&A session, and this also concludes.
